the funny thing is that the @lastpositivist.bsky.social tweet is more or less an axiom of AI safety: the larger the covariance matrix, the more ways there are for spurious covariance to get baked into the refusal subspace (such as "poems aren't dangerous"), so best practice is to force a dumb result

"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.
Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

I feel I need to highlight this, in the off chance someone younger than forty is reading this: The media was terrible in the run up to Afghanistan and Iraq, they were a magnitude better at covering the run up to both than they are with Venezuela. The Bush admin put effort into selling the wars too.
“why the fuck are we invading Venezuela” should really be on at least a couple of chyrons

we have a Schrodinger's King. On the one hand, his pronouncements mean nothing because his word is meaningless. However, the fact his word is meaningless is forbidden for the press to use as a weapon against him
Right. This is normally a prelude to imminent war. But no one knows if the us president is serious or had a bad breakfast or is making an insane joke or had a stroke or whatever.
This seems like the kind of declaration by a U.S. president that should be mentioned *somewhere* on the front page of CNN or the NY Times, but the fact that it isn't (as of right now) tells us so much both about how this president is covered and the credibility of the U.S. government.

Right, the answer to the question “can the president issue a valid pardon for the assassins he sent to successfully kill the Congress that was impeaching him” has to be no or the underlying structure of the Constitution makes no sense
i think that we should charge even people who have been pardoned, because there is no conceivable way the founders intended the pardon power to permit the executive to order people to commit crimes and then pardon them for them

in the midst of our supposed campaign against Venezuelan drug traffickers the President of the United States has chosen to pardon the Former President of Honduras, freeing him from his long prison sentence earned for trafficking more than 400 tons of cocaine into the United States

Feels worth pointing out that the entire reason Trump put the national guard into cities was bc they were hoping something violent would happen to some of them.

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

I’d be more sympathetic to “Nuzzi and Lizza are uniquely bad and not at all representative of political reporters in general” if political reporters haven’t spent the past 10 years torching their own credibility all the way back to the full court press on Hillary’s emails.

i have agreed with stancil and i have disagreed with stancil. he has sharp elbows. but the accusation that he is a raging transphobe is not connected to reality. and the weaponization of "i'm listening to trans people" to smear someone because you disagree about fucking econ polling is disgusting
No, I do not “pick on” trans people, I have never done anything like this. And frankly, I think the willingness of some people to completely invent accusations of transphobia in the desperate search for a cudgel against ideological opponents suggests they don’t really care about transphobia
Listen dude, you can try and ride for this guy all you want, but the trans userbase of this platform fucking hates him because he picks on them. I'm going to listen to the trans people I know who are telling me he's bad. Plus I've been in these threads and seen it
