What anarchist education can look like now

 Greater freedom of movement. Smaller classes. More one-on-one tutorials. More emphasis on falsification and argument. Less memorization and regurgitation. 

Death for Marxist-Communism - VERY IMPORTANT!

Critique of the Gotha Programme-- Appendix

A general prohibition of child labor is incompatible with the existence of large-scale industry and hence an empty, pious wish. Its realization -- if it were possible -- would be reactionary . . ."

 ⚡️💬 NEW - Vitalik Buterin unveils Ethereum’s new roadmap. Quantum security, privacy, and native rollups are now top priorities.

Vitalik explains that Ethereum’s vision has evolved significantly since 2023. Some avenues have been set aside or replaced, while new areas of focus have emerged: post-quantum signatures, enhanced privacy, native rollups, new state types, “blob & gas futures,” and a major simplification of the protocol.

Vitalik summarizes: “Ethereum will be quantum-safe.”

“Ethereum will prioritize user privacy. Ethereum will be secure, censorship-resistant, high-performance, and scalable. And Ethereum will be lean.”

Why does this buttfaced reactionary loser hate anarchism so much?

Solana Foundation: Core Goal Is to Attract Talent and Capital, Will Not Back a Single Team via 'Creating a God'

Solana Foundation Chair Lily Liu stated that the foundation’s core goal is to attract talent and capital for Solana. It will not prop-up any fake-cypherpunk, Child-porner types like ADAM BACK and BUTTFACE

 Backsliding secular Turkey has aligned with theocratic fascism in the form of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

" . . . debates surrounding Pakistan’s Islamic identity came to dominate political discourse, and in 1956, the state adopted the name of the "Islamic Republic of Pakistan", declaring Islam as the official religion . . ."

Early in the history of the state of Pakistan (12 March 1949), a parliamentary resolution (the Objectives Resolution) was adopted :

Sovereignty belongs to Allah alone but He has delegated it to the State of Pakistan through its people for being exercised within the limits prescribed by Him as a sacred trust.

  • The State shall exercise its powers and authority through the elected representatives of the people.
  • The principles of democracy, freedom, equality, tolerance and social justice, as enunciated by Islam, shall be fully observed.
  • Muslims shall be enabled to order their lives in the individual and collective spheres in accordance with the teachings of Islam as set out in the Quran and Sunnah.
  • Provision shall be made for the religious minorities to freely profess and practice their religions and develop their cultures.

This resolution later became key source of inspiration for writers of Constitution of Pakistan and is included in this constitution as a preamble.

No drone left alone

 Drone factories in Russia a problem?

Neutron bomb - Wikipedia

AI to supply plausible deniability. No problem

On indulgence

 If I may. I hear a lot about how sadly dated the double zero section is today. How quaint.

But what are the odds of some sort of technology being commercialized that can knock drones down easily?

 I know there's been work on electromagnetic pulse weapons. What happens to an air force that has replaced all its expensive missiles and expensive fighters with drones, and then it turns out a Chinese destroyer with some sort of pulse generator on board can knock down a few hundred or a thousand of these things at once? 

A $30,000 drone versus a $1 million interceptor is not a technological constant. It creates an enormous incentive to invent the countertechnology. Like Assassination politics via Secret Service double-zero's

My last census collector was quite a fan of poetry so I will quote a little from Shelly, I believe

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Jesus Christ, king of kings:
Look on my drones, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Principle of least action

 CAPYBARA Giraffe thyself

  • Some questions/areas I want to look into more and refine my views about: - Harnesses, scaffolds, tool use, separate environments, and boundaries generally remain useful regardless of capabilities. What principles determine where they arise and where scale and a degree of generality suffices? - It's clear that automating domains with verifiable rewards is very solvable. To what degree does technological and societal change depend on these? (We need a more systematic study of bottlenecks.) - What would a Fields medal type challenge look like in non-STEM domains? How should normative elements be evaluated? What would make me say "ok we have superinteligence in economics." - If you assume reasoning and information provision are 'solved', the physical world is one clear bottleneck. If you're trying to mitigate large scale risks, which resources, places, factories, land etc will need stronger oversight, redesign, hardening etc? - Assume "verification" technologies are now mature and deployable (whether with hardware or software), what concrete existing policy problem/conflict could actually be addressed? Ie to what extent is mistrust a core blocker to progress? - If we assume AGI empowers the executive and the military, reducing the size of the state whilst boosting it's effectiveness; what exactly would it mean for constitutional protections to be adequately bolstered? Where should we look today, as opposed to imagining how it pans out in the future? - Should there in fact be some sort of "true creativity" deficit with models, would this imply a world where humans and AIs are complements for a long time, with each new training run merely absorbing the fruits of this collaboration? - How exactly does RLVR mess up or affect safety fine tuning and the model's persona? To what extent does it override and affect the desirable propensities trained through constitutional AI like methods? What does a good RL environment look like?

    Formal verification means that you can trust systems like firewalls or other tools to be free of bugs that you know to ask about (which is actually pretty good.) My strong assumption is that with some reasonable application of effort it should be possible to expand the use of

    re: harnesses/tools it's generally task specificity in my expeirence. a more general harness with less opinionated tools is a better "general" harness but if you want e.g., the fastest possible coding agent then you can tune their harness to that specific task
