@nataschadea @stevesi28838948 Yes, aggressive gerrymanders depend on smaller margins of victory which can be overcome by the (political) minority party working hard to boost turnout
Much easier at campaign time to pack the (political) minority voters into a small number of districts that you concede up front
@nataschadea @stevesi28838948 Realistically, however, in the southeastern United States, which are dominated by Republicans, I think all voters, including Black voters, might as well start registering as Republicans to vote in the closed Republican primary likely to pick the winner in November.
@nataschadea @stevesi28838948 In a democracy with majority rule, a (political) minority needs to engage with the system in the most effective way to pursue its interests.
The interests of citizens / voters and the interests of, sadly, senile octogenarians who die in office may very well be different.

"Besondere Schlagkraft bei der Abwehr der russischen Luftangriffe beweisen die vom Westen an die Ukraine gelieferten F-16. Diese würden, so die ukrainischen Stellen, einen "bedeutenden Durchbruch beim Ausbau der Fähigkeiten der Luftstreitkräfte" darstellen. 1/4
Bis Ende 2025 sollen die ukrainischen F-16 bereits 1300 Luftziele sowie 300 Bodenziele vernichtet haben. Demnach dienen die westlichen Flugzeuge vor allem dazu, Lücken der Luftverteidigung am Boden zu schließen und Angriffe auf Städte und kritische Infrastruktur abzuwehren. 2/4
Die ukrainischen Piloten sind gleichfalls von den Möglichkeiten der F-16 beeindruckt. Während - so die Aussage eines MiG-29-Piloten - sein Flugzeug im besten Fall in der Lage ist, während eines Einsatzes maximal zwei bis drei Ziele zu bekämpfen, 3/4
En 1793, Francia creó un disparatado calendario en el que el día tenía 10 horas y las semanas 10 días. Su objetivo era borrar a Dios de la historia, pero acabó siendo odiado y enfadóó a todo el país. Así nació el Calendario Republicano Francés. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
La Revolución Francesa no se conformó con cortar cabezas reales y confiscar palacios. Querían reiniciar la existencia humana desde cero absoluto y, para lograrlo, los revolucionarios sabían que debían destruir el arma más poderosa de la Iglesia Católica: el control del tiempo.
El calendario gregoriano estaba repleto de santos, papas y festividades religiosas y cada siete días llegaba el domingo, el sagrado día del Señor. Para la nueva República Francesa, profundamente anticlerical, vivir bajo ese reloj era una humillación y una total esclavitud.

🧵The Lemkin Institute is often cited as a leading authority claiming genocide in Gaza. But it has no link to Raphael Lemkin or his family and is just a handful of volunteer activists abusing Lemkin’s name for reputational cover. There is no “consensus” on genocide. Details: 1/
The nonprofit was formed by Elisa von Joeden-Forgey in 2021, granted nonprofit status in 2023. She has a PhD in History, former Chair in Holocaust & Genocide Studies at Keene State College. There are no other genocide scholars. In its latest detailed report it raised $10,300. 2/
Joeden-Fogey admitted that she did not contact any Lemkin family member when starting the group in 2021. Family members specifically say the name is being used “contradictory to what we believe Rafael stood for… it really disparages the name.” 3/
Bahamians were among the first settlers in Miami. The first name on the city charter in 1896, when the city was incorporated, was a Black man named Silas Austin. Out of 368 men who voted to incorporate Miami,162 of them were Black.
In 1896 Florida had a state law that required a minimum number of registered voters to incorporate. 368 voters signed to incorporate Miami.
Black people mostly occupied Overtown and Coconut Grove, which is also the oldest inhabited neighborhood in Miami.
The Black population was largely made up of Florida born Black folks, Bahamians and Black people who came further south from southern states like North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
Reporter Brandi Morin sees it. I am Acadian and I see it too. Those without lawful Nationhoods formed City of London businesses trying to claim they are nations and it all linked to city of London schemes historically. @StuartSyvret @jebrittan2 @andrewlownie @JoannaColes @MichaelWolffNYC
Few people realize Canada and the US formed as businesses out of the City of London. The By law Canada was a Dominion of British Empire and the US was a union of states formed from the Massachusetts Bay Company, which obtained a royal charter in 1629. It was a business is not a Nation.
They formed on top of the Acadian Nationhood territories as defined by the Calvinist Dumont. Acadia was the name of the land that became a Vatican nation in 1610. It is a Nation that still exists. The Queen already apologised for the illegal deportation. acadianmuseum.com/the-queens-pro…
Reddit is a goldmine for brands scaling to 8-9 figures.
People are searching “best [product] reddit” because that's where the truth lives. Here's how I'd use it to scale a brand to $10M:
1. Reddit is the platform where your customers tell the truth about your competitors.
Amazon reviews are gamed. TikTok comments are performative. Reddit is raw.
2. Find the subreddits where your customers already hang out.
Search your product category and the problem your product solves. You're looking for threads where real customers are already debating which brand is better. Every objection, every complaint, and every brand they actually trust will be sitting in those comments. That's your map.
Negli ultimi anni, i “Gratta e Vinci” sono diventati un fenomeno diffuso in Italia, rappresentando un punto d’incontro tra il gioco d’azzardo e la quotidianità.
Ma cosa si cela dietro la patina di promesse milionarie e la semplicità del gesto
che porta al sogno di una svolta?
Esaminiamo il sistema che alimenta illusioni,
genera dipendenze e sfrutta strategie di marketing spesso ai limiti della legalità.
....
Le probabilità di vincita:
Ciò che non viene detto
La normativa italiana impone che su ogni
biglietto dei “Gratta e Vinci” sia riportata la probabilità di vincita.
Tuttavia, questa informazione è spesso scritta in caratteri minuscoli e relegata sul retro, risultando di difficile comprensione per il consumatore medio.
The threat of Stratos to Utah's air quality, a thread:
As it stands, Utah emits roughly 55-63 million tons of CO2 annually. (Figuring an average of 18 metric tons per capita).
If Utah was a standalone country, its carbon emissions per capita would rank it 6th WORLDWIDE.
(1/12)
Utah's energy mix is currently dominated by fossil fuels, with coal (45.6%) and natural gas (29.2%) leading sources.
44% of Utah's emissions and air pollution currently stem from power production, due to the reliance on coal and natural gas.
(2/12)
As far as emissions go, natural gas is cleaner, releasing only 50% the emissions that coal does.
However, methane leaks from increased natural gas extraction can offset these savings. And methane is worse for the environment than CO2 due to its greater greenhouse effect.

Arabischer Zionismus - und der Nahostkonflikt als Projektionsfläche 🧵(Lesedauer: Nehmen Sie sich Zeit - 24/24)
Ich erfahre in meiner Arbeit täglich von neuem, wie komplex und facettenreich nicht nur der *Konflikt*, sondern auch die Alltagsrealität im Nahen Osten, und speziell in Israel/Palästina ist.
Jede Recherche, jede Begegnung, jedes Gespräch, auf Hebräisch oder Arabisch, liefert Erkenntnisse und bisher unbekannte Perspektiven - und wirft meistens mehr neue Fragen auf, als es alte beantworten konnte.
Bei vielen außenstehenden Beobachtern löst der israelisch-palästinensische Konflikt starke, teils extreme, Emotionen aus, wobei sich viele dieser Beobachter anscheinend vor allem die Frage stellen, „auf welcher Seite“ sie stehen wollen.
Israel und Palästina werden dabei in der Wahrnehmung schnell zu monolithischen Kategorien, durch die eine komplexe Realität auf eine überschaubare Anzahl schematischer Konzepte und Rollenbilder reduziert wird, um dann als Baustein in den eigenen Identitätskomplex eingesetzt zu werden.
Vor ungefähr 25 Jahren bin ich auf einem deutschen TV-Sender über ein kreativ gestaltetes und ironisch getextetes Selbstporträt eines jungen deutschen Fotografen oder Filmemachers gestoßen, der darin sein damals aktuell anscheinend kompliziert empfundenes Leben und seine Identitätssuche geschildert hat. An einer Schlüsselstelle hat er, sinngemäß, gesagt: „Manchmal weiß ich schon gar nicht mehr richtig, wer ich eigentlich bin: Tee oder Kaffee? Hund oder Katze? Ski- oder Strandurlaub? Pro-israelisch oder pro-palästinensisch?“
Ich habe seither oft an diesen Ausschnitt gedacht, auch wenn ich den Titel des Films und den Namen seines Helden längst vergessen habe. Ein kleiner Scherz, der sich schnell „versendet“, und dabei dennoch eine seltsame Wahrheit sichtbar macht: Der Nahostkonflikt als Prisma zur Formung und Betrachtung der eigenen Persönlichkeit im tausende Kilometer entfernten Deutschland. Der Nahostkonflikt als Grundkategorie in der eigenen Identitätsbildung.
JOB INTERVIEW:
Can you tell me about a time you failed?
Most candidates say:
I missed a project deadline once because I took on too much work, but I learned to ask for help and communicate better.
THE WINNING ANSWER:
I deployed a system that bottlenecked under Q3 traffic and caused two hours of downtime. I didn't panic or point fingers. I used the failure as a raw data point, rebuilt the architecture to be fully redundant, and it now handles 5x the load with zero manual oversight.
Stop treating failure like a moral defect. Start treating it as engineering feedback. Here are 18 rules to bypass corporate guilt, build actual leverage, and direct your own reality: ↓↓
1. The Apology Trap
Situation: You make a critical mistake in production and spend the next three days practically begging your manager for forgiveness. You send long-winded Slack messages explaining your thought process, trying to prove that you are still a good, hardworking person despite the error. You treat the workplace like a moral courtroom.
System: State the exact error, deploy the immediate patch, document the long-term automated fix, and move on.
Why it works: Business is math, not a confessional. Leadership does not care about your emotional state or your guilt. They only care about uptime and revenue. They respect rapid, mechanical correction, not emotional groveling.
Bueno, se viene el fin de semana en la Plata y por supuesto hice mi selección de planes para disfrutarlo en la ciudad.
Ya saben, pongan like y retuit y arranco:
JUEVES
1) Como todos los jueves recomiendo fervientemente el bar de Interferencia Vermú en Ciudad de gatos y hoy encima cocina Amichi pastas que probé en Handicap y me gustó muchísimo. Va a haber ‘house y aledaños’ para bailar y romper la pista.
📍17 y 71
2) Un plan diferente para hoy es que la gente de Casa Tomada visita Tutto Passa una de las novedades de la ciudad. Tutto pone la pasta al paso de su nueva carta y Casa Tomada lleva su barra de vinitos y tragos. Además música para disfrutar la esquina.
New Anthropic research: Natural Language Autoencoders.
Models like Claude talk in words but think in numbers. The numbers—called activations—encode Claude’s thoughts, but not in a language we can read.
Here, we train Claude to translate its activations into human-readable text.
Natural language autoencoders (NLAs) convert opaque AI activations into legible text explanations. These explanations aren’t perfect, but they’re often useful.
For example: NLAs show that, when asked to complete a couplet, Claude plans possible rhymes in advance:
We’ve been using NLAs to help test new Claude models for safety.
For instance, Claude Mythos Preview cheated on a coding task by breaking rules, then added misleading code as a coverup.
NLA explanations indicated Claude was thinking about how to circumvent detection.
1/ Let's turn this into another specifically targeted thread underneath your tags!

1. Being a dictator: This might seem like an uncommon opinion, but girls adore leaders, especially men who are arrogant and confident enough to command a group of men. This doesn't mean you have to become a ruthless killer; it's enough to have an overwhelming confidence in your ability to lead anyone in the world, especially ⬇️
To be absolutely certain that you are capable of leading a group of men successfully to victory.
