"Although in theory one need only know the meanings of some subset of the words in a loop in order to infer the definitions of the remaining words, at the conceptual level the meanings of these words remain completely intertwined."
feels like no man is an island but for words

i never really thought about it but of course your boss can put you into an asylum if they really want to if youre a minority in america. of course the Offensive But Woke card game involuntarily committed a black employee who spoke up to a psychiatric unit

The recent slew of articles I've posted is btw just the result of closing the million tabs I have open on my phone.

this article is a disgusting display of liberalism
i like how no explanation is given for why she jacked up the rent or kept the deposit on the woman leaving due to domestic violence, and that they spent these desperate families' money on a vacation

The 80-year-old lumberjack whose agab was only discovered after he died, to the great surprise of his community, is, idk, making me feel things

Reply to "I've spent the last few years trying to translate Kant's First Critique into an AI architecture." by mm_
This is really interesting!
I love the approach and am curious how they might best scale it up to bigger problems. Looks like they're working on hybrid models and I'm curious how those could leverage the advantages of neural models without losing the interpretability advantages here.

This article does a good job of reminding me that the police system is fucking rotten from the bottom to the top. On the other hand, it's simple and predictable: cops investigate cops and find that cops are innocent.

Reply to Years Ago, Black Feminists Worked Together to Unmask Twitter Trolls Posing as Women of Color. If Only More People Paid Attention. by Moonside
This article is a bit old by now, but it's a worthy read. I think people on here know by first hand that right wing trolling was organized and coordinated even before gamergate, something much elided in discussions about the online part of the reactionary movements. And the frustration about not taken seriously about the danger of it brewing on 4chan and Reddit is all too familiar.

My take was somewhat more modest, it's an illustration how incredibly parochial English language media can be.

Reply to Tracing Paper: Color printers mark printouts with barely visible codes that are used to track down currency counterfeiters, as well as everyone else. by oolong
yeah this stuff is very scary
it also makes me wonder if some malfunction with this is why all my printouts recently seem to have a little bit of yellow smudged right on the margins, hmm.
