When they tell you to "go back to your country" but you're #HereToStay!
I won't let a racist and xenophobic president and his supporters intimidate me. Fighting for the 11 million undocumented immigrants till justice comes! ✊🏾 #NotMyPresident#DreamActNow

A Severe Misalignment of AI in Mathematics
You're missing the core drama of the story: Tristan is softly accusing OpenAI of having stolen their result from Codex chat logs.
Tristan then claims OpenAI tried to threaten him to not publicly disclose this, and that they'd give him the Clay Prize ($1M) as the "closest humans to the problem" if he'd agree to disavow his co-author, @__alpoge__ , who is at Anthropic.
This is HBO-level drama, but with math proofs.
I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
I write as former Head of Maritime Section of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office
and Alternate Head of UK Delegation to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea Prepcom.
1) The flotilla is on the High Seas and not in Israel's 12 mile territorial sea. Israel has no jurisdiction.
2) The Israeli maritime blockade has been in place for 17 years and is an intrinsic part of the long term occupation found illegal in the ICJ advisory opinion
3) It is therefore not a short term measure in time of armed conflict as specified in the San Remo manual
4) In any event the San Remo rules explicitly state that humanitarian supplies may not be blockaded
5) The UN Commission of Inquiry has already determined that Israel is committing genocide. The blockade is plainly a part of the machinery of such genocide.
For reasons 1 to 5 the Israeli attack on the flotilla is plainly illegal.
6) On the High Seas, the law applying on each ship is the law of its flag state. An attack by a state military warship on a vessel on the High Seas is an attack on the flag state of the vessel attacked.
7) Acts of illegal possession of vessels or abduction of crew on the High Seas should be pursued by each flag state as crimes within their domestic jurisdiction, not only in international law.
8) So the Metropolitan Police and DPP have an obligation to investigate and act over the abduction of persons from UK flagged vessels on the High Seas.
This applies to each flag state mutatis mutandi.
I hope you find this helpful.

P.s. Immigrants do pay taxes!
According to the American Immigration Council @immcouncil:
In 2023, households led by undocumented immigrants paid $89.8B in total taxes. This includes:
- $33.9B in state and local taxes, and
- $55.8B in federal taxes.
Democrats that moved to the right in the name of defeating Donald Trump will continue to move right after Trump’s victory because they believe that moving right is the solution and will never admit they were wrong.
BREAKING: Today, the United Nations voted 170-6 on "The Right of the Palestinian People to Self-Determination".
Those voting against:
🇺🇸United States
🇮🇱Israel

🇳🇷Nauru
When Israel bombed the first hospital in Gaza, the world wouldn’t believe it and Israel blamed a misfired rocket from Hamas…
Israel has now destroyed all 36 hospitals in Gaza including its largest medical facility the al-Shifa Hospital…
THIS IS A GENOCIDE...🇵🇸💔
The audacity to blame me (an undocumented immigrant who's obviously not eligible to vote) for the Democratic Party's historic loss is in another level of ignorance and hate. 🤦🏽♂️
“If you were able to overlook a genocide and cast a vote for Harris, you already know how a conservative was able to overlook Trump’s extremism and vote for him.”
“Democrats have to move right”
To the right of campaigning with Liz Cheney and promising Republicans cabinet seats?
No. This is what Democrats running to the right looks like.
The future is centering the working class, being pro-peace, and advocating for Medicare for all.
Dems didn’t hold a primary
DNC chose Kamala
Loudly armed & endorsed genocide
Policy proposal: I’m not Trump
Moved to the right
Touted republican endorsements
Doubled down on genocide
LOST
I’mma say the hard thing. Kamala Harris did not lose the election because of racism and misogyny. That was a negligible reason at best. Rashida Talib, Ilhan Omar, and Summer Lee all won their seats in swing states VP Harris lost. Sit with the real reasons why she lost.
In Missouri, a deep red state, we voted to increase the minimum wage AGAIN and paid sick time
The American people support left populist economic ideas but the Democrats choose to lose because they embrace neoliberalism
