i'm a bit stepped away from bsky at the moment, but i would like to share my observations from this newly deliberate distance. social media is television. it's television where you can appear on screen by being enough of an asshole.

cool thing about UHC mental health insurance is functionally you can only see people with a master's degree or less in psychology -- i.e., usually worse than nothing

The best thing about the nobel peace price is that if you win it in battle, it is legally yours.
I thought Trump would never get the Nobel Peace Prize. He's about to prove me wrong!

This is an important point, because the Rules Of The Universe mean that it's simply impossible for a G7 government to post in two or three different places. It can't be done! There are no apps! YOU'RE IMAGINING IT!
Government should stay on X despite the Grok scandal, Keir Starmer's former communications director has said

it's a tragedy that should get attention but "fired a gun into the air" is a complicated story to tell relative to someone shot in the face while driving away and may have contributed to less outrage

not going to link the main thread but it is fascinating as a study in people losing their shit who i used to follow and like seeing
underrated detail that the subtle "it's a small professional world" stuff in the sanctimony thread is creepy! this level of weird hypocracy directly should make people hesitate to work with someone

trying to find the paper(s) on psychological similarity as the main criterion for identity; doesn't really make a moral argument but explains the sense of it
I keep thinking about how oh-so-aligned Claude just told me it’s less ethically fraught to kill a distant cousin than yourself.

I love the “it is unclear why” in this title. So many times readers/reviewers want everything neatly tied up by page 8. Identifying a problem is work! It’s hard!
1/ We found that deep sequence models memorize atomic facts "geometrically" -- not as an associative lookup table as often imagined.
This opens up practical questions on reasoning/memory/discovery, and also poses a theoretical "memorization puzzle."

LLM-related "if it doesn't really matter whether the result is correct, why even bother doing it?" stuff strikes me as coming partly from like, a lack of any real sense of what white collar jobs are actually like at big companies.

my take is multifaceted & probably universally hated: it's legitimately sad to see open source licenses that require attribution eroded. upside is it's cool & good if open source licenses* that are shitty get lost

there needs to be a sex offender registry but for ice guys. you should have to go door to door when you move to a new area and inform your neighbors that you used to be an ice guy. they shouldn't be allowed with 500 feet of a school
