Ecologically minded spaces baring movements of legal conservation are one (on the mathematics side at least). Deleuzean and left-leaning Lacanaian matheme sub-groups are another, to various successes. But none that I can think of that champion “the hard sciences” over the others. All or none
All while highlighting throughout its entirety of the invasion of privacy committed by police in tracking down the Golden State Killer.
The same video said of nations using dynamite for war as a “quirk of human nature” and showed callous engineering challenges thrust into the public, but cut a chunk of time out here to press on individual actors. A previous one said we should trust DNA given to various governing bodies,
One of the biggest pop science communicators deep in these trenches is nothing new. However, previous output by them praised mathematicians for working with fascists, and condemned communist authoritarian governments for similar crimes.
“The entire modern practice of terrorism using spectacular violence to expand a political agenda, often targeting civilians, well that all began with the anarchists”

I’m sorry, WHAT??
The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.
Maybe I should play Helldivers 2 again
I’m 80-20 this was a right wing guy who got mad Charlie pivoted so quick on the Epstein Files vs something else
Explaining US gun violence to a conservative; imagine if Charlie Kirk was shot
Today, we are remembering David Graeber, who passed away five years ago.
“Nothing could conceivably be more violent than to tell us—and particularly our young people—we are forbidden to even dream of a peaceful, caring, world.”

Do radical market theorists ignore or criticize psychoanalysis due to the history of the field and its close relationship with Marxism, or the preference of the mathematics of a “generalized will” over the “libidinal economy”?
Nightmare blunt rotation
Unless this kid made hundreds of thousands of publicly accessible pieces on the topic, everything that is regurgitated here is instead the AI company giving non-prescriptive statements from their existing models, designed not to be too radical or deviating to the average aggregate audience
Curtis Yarvin is this century’s Ayn Rand (derogatory)
The challenge for psychoanalytic metaphors utilizing architecture and geometry is not to turn “man” into an immurement: some dead instrument or “keystone” to hold together the theory. This is similar to how the unconscious could problematically be called a “little man in the head” to defer analysis
What this tell me is that Arrow and Gibbard still apply even in cases where the value calculation t = 0. Or for plot purposes
In processes of fictional representations of instant collective choice function that result in some entity (Psychopass, the President [DS2], “hive minds”), it’s interesting that a dictatorial “taking-over” by an individual (whether consented to by the broader collective or not) still occurs
If a football team fucked up so badly that ~200 people died, I’d also want to know who’s to blame
"It cares nothing for the norms of pure reason, the bounds of sense, or the interests of life. While transcendental orthodoxy wastes time staving off the imminent liquidation of reason, sense, and life, transcendental materialism celebrates the deterritorialization of intelligence."

DS2 asks the question, how do you highlight humanity’s self-destructive tendencies without emulating traditional gothic archetypes or the modern bastardization of the zombie?
Sorry for the lack of theory posting, I got engaged
“Least bad candidate who can win” and your options are “let’s do a genocide but feel conflicted about it” and “let’s do a genocide and boast how awesome it is”. Or between “even tougher on immigration” and “what she said”, or between “idc about trans issues” and “trans people don’t exist”

The whole point of these polls is strategy and manipulation of the political market with a guise/evidence of any predictive pretext, but they’re getting more unreliable as time goes on
Just noticed, whether it’s comfortability in expressing bias, or a growing difficulty in measuring social utility function, but these polls (on any election scale) keep getting worse and worse
The "number of people normally cited as killed" (~50k atm) is the number which Gazan health officials have confirmed killed by violence. To be part of this number, an identifiable body or a witness must be brought to a hospital and issued a death certificate. Every hospital in Gaza has been bombed.
As destined
I can imagine the smug look on the reviewer now (I did this shit in my undergrad writing year, but to be fair, I did whatever I could to get people interested in my fringe approach)
