Result of pop quiz was a letdown. Do I need to rethink how I'm teaching it?

AI algorithm shows bias. The number of ethical issues multiply. Will machines ever be truly unbiased?🌱

at the risk of engaging in the folly of a "subtance demander," and making an actual point, what do you think will happen when you "force" a grocery store to sell their goods at a loss? they will charitably do so? or is it more likely they will simply stop selling that good?

This is my backyard. I sometimes use a canoe to break down beaver dams when the water is too high. Otherwise things are left as is.

Incredible debut album by DJ Love, a pioneering Filipino producer behind the rise and evolution of the Budots movement, a genre that originated from the southern part of the Philippines in the 2000s and 2010s. His now legendary Manila Community Radio Boiler Room appearance and classic tracks like TiwTiw (Emergency Paging Dr. Beat) recently exploding into global TikTok fame, are helping the genre to overcome derogatory connotations around juvenile delinquency into a celebrated art form and empowering his local community. https://easternmargins.bandcamp.com/album/budots-world-reloaded

Feed Update: Channel casts get more views! Casts in channels you follow, but from people you don't follow, are now more likely to show up in your home feed. We ran an A/B test and it was mostly positive. This should be rolling out to everyone over the next day.

One way to look at the possible effects of deepfakes in politics is to look at "shallow fakes" that have been possible for a long time. For example, this screenshot purporting to be a "you're free to say whatever nasty stuff you want" whitelist for twitter. I actually have no idea if this is real or fake, but there definitely are some people who are treating it as real, imo without sufficient evidence. And yet, the effects of things like this are pretty bounded. This feels like a plausible outcome for deepfakes in politics. The smart people know not to trust a politician's statements without confirmation on official channels, and less smart people get tricked, as they do today with shallow fakes. If something fake goes viral, Community Notes can help on the margin in making it clear that it's fake. Most normies don't actually look at this stuff in real time, and so the effect ends up not too bad. This is the strongest case for not being too worried. The place where I am *more* worried about deepfakes is...

I am noticing that the most successful new ideologies of the past decade are very object-level (prescriptions on specific issues) and quite little meta-level (social processes for making decisions on object-level issues). Examples: * Abstract libertarianism feels much weaker than 10 years ago. But issue-specific versions of it are quite successful: YIMBY (housing), the crypto space * e/acc (it's about all technology in theory, but ends up being about AI in practice) * The largest cluster in effective altruism morphed from being meta-level ("think harder to making sure your donations are going where they can do the most good!") to object level (AI safety, with a little bit of animal welfare and global public health) * Longevity movement Maybe network states and Glen and Audrey's Plurality movement are two exceptions - but in general the above feels like a strong pattern. Any ideas why this meta level -> object level shift seems to be taking place?

Seeing how many crypto and tech people that I know follow this fascist d*ck is a reminder that a lot of crypto folks are either straight out white supremacists themselves or don't care as long as it's profitable to them.
