Are you saying that if I flip a coin and it chooses the same moral decision that a human does, that the coin doesn't have a system of moral decision making?

Hey PNW, and Montana.

Are y'all ok?

Seriously. Since there is a ton of distraction. Washington state, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana are currently treading water.

Thankfully no loss of life reported as of now. Hopefully that will remain the case.

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

Not all of the anti-vax influences in the US have been domestic or organic.

Russia ran an anti-vaccination messaging campaign on social media targeting a US audience for years as part of its active measures efforts, even before COVID hit (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...).
One of @pewresearch.org's "striking findings" from 2025 is relevant again as measles cases rise:

Republican support for requiring public school kids to get the measles/mumps/rubella vaccine has fallen sharply: 52% support it today, down from 79% in 2019.

The world cup and the summer Olympics are going to be lit. If your social media is "ok" according to cbp, you might still get mistaken for someone they want to put in detention.
The government is using face-scanning apps to check if random people on the street are citizens. And they say you cannot refuse.

Lessons from Trump’s “war” on Chicago
ICE and Border Patrol agents terrorized the city, and locals fought back.

This is a long consolidation of material about Russia's conscious efforts to reconstitute the empire with information warfare.

The principles rhyme with the new US national security strategy.

it's actually kinda funny in a way to get to the finish line of curing cancer and having the government go eh you know what. never mind
A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

It’s cool how Chomsky was saying “don’t punch nazis” after what happened in ‘17 in Berkeley
Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

The Ellisons have power bc of Oracle money and Oracle has money bc of the AI boom. But Ellison has been through these before and Oracle often came out better.

I wonder how much of the Paramount bluster is desperation b/c they know the air is leaking out, or just fanaticism?

I can't wait to see how Joe Gebbia turns the new Trump $1 Million Visa site into an experience like the Apple Store. Maybe there will be ways to select add-ons like the Extradition Protection package or Your Own FBI Security Detail or A Pet Senator. Just an inspiring example of government services

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Proofs are DAGs, obviously, so if we can run similarity tests on the dags that make up a data management ecosystem we could theoretically id redundant or conflicting proofs.
