America needs more public restrooms when you’re out and about. Hell, even make them charge a nominal fee like Japan if we get clean ass futuristic public restrooms as a result.

Trump is no longer even pretending to have any kind of argument that his murdering of people in the Caribbean Sea has any kind of statutory validity. Just straight up declaring that he has quasi-unlimited power to execute people based on (nominal) suspicion.

Judith Collins laments the financial situation in her “open letter”, claiming it's due to Labour. She ignores the fact that John Key left a $60b debt 22% of GDP while privatising assets & by 2023 it was 18% GDP with a nominal increase. Debt isn't bad in itself but National's lies are #nzpol

liberalism has no solutions, only empty rhetoric and a policy of adopting the ways and means of their nominal opponents until they themselves are an ineffective shadow of the monsters currently stripping the american carcass. it will not save you. it will not save us.

They went from being enemy combatants to perfectly harmless b/c processing living enemy combatants requires nominal forethought as to the rights of these civilians, and nominal forethought isn't Hegseth's strong suit. They just wanted to kill Venezualans because Trump wants to oust Maduro.

lobal warming will permanently and irreversibly shrink the global economy, causing complete financial system collapse.

Financial collapse will occur much sooner than most expect, because of the financial system's severe sensitivity to low-to-negative nominal GDP growth.

Then again, you got the same folks who say lowering the price to a nominal fee accessible to working people invites the "wrong elements" to use a public resource *really* intended for respectable middle class folks

New paper on formats of representation in LLMs. I defend pluralism both about the vehicles of representation in ANNs (e.g. neurons, polytopes, embeddings) and about the formats of representation (e.g. nominal, analogue, structural). Hope it’s useful to someone. philpapers.org/rec/MALFOR-2
Fintan Mallory, Formats of Representation in Large Language Models - PhilPapers
This paper argues for a pluralist approach to representation in large language models. There are two parts to this pluralism, the first is that we should recognise more than one vehicle ...

I think it's true that a lot of people are now active and ready for more. What I don't think is true is that what exists of the Left in the US is going to be receiving them as members and organizing them. I think it's a lot more likely they organize themselves in ways that frustrate the nominal Left
I guess I saw some shit talk from the left about these kinds of protests, but by and large most of what I've seen is people on the left saying look at all these people ready to be organized. A lot of raw material to work with.

Ever think about why the Republicans want to call this nation state a ‘republic’ rather than a ‘democracy’? It’s literally a case of nominal determinism and they want it to be THEIR name….

one point in favour of a chinese century is that the chinese still have some collective sense of 'shame' in society, even if increasingly nominal and vestigial
cancel culture was a desperate rearguard action in defense of shared norms whose obsolescence was revealed via the backlash to cancel culture.
in hindsight it makes sense to see cancel culture as a harbinger of the end of shame rather than an excess of it. "shame" presupposes stable social norms and a sense of what one did wrong and how it could have been avoided. not suddenly a thunderbolt from zeus thrown at random people

Avg rate changes range from a nominal *drop* in Alaska (-0.2%) to a whopping 46.3% increase in Arizona.

Nationally, gross premiums are increasing from $619/mo to $766/mo on average, an extra $147/mo for enrollees who pay full price both years.

I expect that China's debt-to-GDP ratio will rise in 2025 by 11-12 percentage points, as it did in 2023 and 2024. This is roughly double the average increase in the three years before COVID. Even as credit growth decelerates, nominal GDP growth is decelerating more quickly.

I'm not a direct content creator tho a lot of my copy does get published, and I've made it clear to him about my stance on AI. Unsurprisingly, he is incapable of being wrong or recognizing that shortcuts in labor severely undermine trust in brand across several demographics, for nominal if any gains
