trump’s antifascist EO explained by Alejandra Caraballo
“It feels like the legal framework for a dictatorship. But before you panic, we need to understand what this order is and, more importantly, what it is not.
Most importantly, it is asking the domestic federal law enforcement apparatus, which has been wholly gutted and demoralized, to suddenly pivot to yet another directive.
The goal was never to win every legal fight, but to make the fight so costly, so toxic, and so exhausting that these institutions would eventually buckle, self-censor, and lose their will to resist.
This overarching strategy is taken from fellow travelers in the authoritarian project in Russia and Hungary where Putin and Orban have gutted and dismantled civil society to enable their strongman rule without meaningful challenge.”

The image features a black background with white text centered in the middle. The text is divided into four lines, each presenting a distinct statement. The first line reads, "A fact is objective information." The second line states, "An opinion is a personal belief." The third line says, "Ignorance is a lack of facts." The final line concludes with, "And stupidity is a rejection of facts in favor of opinions." The text is in a bold, sans-serif font, making it easy to read against the dark background. The overall layout is simple and straightforward, with no additional images or decorations.

The image features a black and white photograph of a man with a serious expression, wearing round glasses, a suit, and a tie. The man is positioned on the right side of the image, with his face partially obscured. The left side of the image contains a quote in a serif font, attributed to Aldous Huxley. The quote reads: "People will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think." The background is plain, emphasizing the text and the man's image. The overall composition is simple, with the quote and the man's portrait being the main elements.

Why did OpenAI train GPT-5 with less compute than GPT-4.5?
Due to the higher returns to post-training, they scaled post-training as much as possible on a smaller model
And since post-training started from a much lower base, this meant a decrease in total training FLOP 🧵

"On Friday, IT security expert and hacker Janik Besendorf, with the support of the Chaos Computer Club (CCC), filed a lawsuit against the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) at the Administrative Court in Wiesbaden. He accuses the authority of unlawfully processing his biometric facial data and presumably also passing it on to third parties for trial runs of biometric facial recognition.
According to the CCC, the lawsuit specifically targets a cooperation between the BKA and the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research (IGD). The Wiesbaden police authority is alleged to have misused nearly 5 million facial data records from the Inpol-Zentral (Z) police database and transferred them to the IGD without legal basis. The images were used as test material for four new BKA facial recognition systems.
Besendorf, whose facial photo was entered into the INPOL-Z database in 2018 after being processed by the identification service on charges of trespassing, feels that he has been unwittingly turned into a test subject. According to Netzpolitik.org, Besendorf wants to wait until the proceedings are concluded before potentially requesting that his photos be deleted. This is to prevent evidence from being destroyed."

Today in Labor History September 27, 1943: The 4 Days of Naples uprising against the Nazi occupation began in Naples, Italy. The uprising began days before the allies arrived and it successfully disrupted the Nazis from deporting Neapolitans en masse, and from building an effective resistance to the allied forces. It was a fairytale uprising, with only 1,600 rebels going up against 20,000 Nazi and Italian fascist troops, with little time to plan, organize and collect weapons. They were able to quickly muster enthusiastic support due to the intense poverty, repression, and mass executions that residents had suffered at the hands of the fascists. 168 rebels and up to 96 fascists died in the rebellion.

Razões para gostar de Lisboa:
- Clima mediterrâneo, com verões não muito quentes e invernos não muito frios.
- Cidade relativamente segura, com níveis de criminalidade comparativamente baixos.
- Próxima de diversas praias.
- Cultura relativamente tolerante.
- Agenda cultural relativamente bem preenchida - com concertos, ciclos de cinema, etc.
- Capital de Portugal, um país com diversos tipos de microclima e solos.
- Saúde pública gratuita.
- Posicionamento geográfico relativamente favorável, entre a América do Norte, América do Sul, Europa Ocidental e África.
- Restauração bastante diversificada, com uma grande qualidade gastronómica.
- População local relativamente hospitaleira.
Razões para não gostar de Lisboa:
- Transportes Públicos escassos/velhos e, por consequência, sempre cheios e atrasados.
- Fraquíssima ligação ferroviária com o resto da Europa.
- Parque automóvel excessivo, o que resulta em congestionamentos de tráfego constante e demasiados carros em cima dos passeios.
- Passeios frequentemente esburacados e cheios de lombas: Calçada portuguesa continua a ser um risco enorme com a chuva.
- Escassez de espaços verdes acessíveis.
- Salários bastante baixos comparativamente com outras capitais europeias.
- Mercado habitacional com escassez de oferta, com casas caríssimas, velhas, e nitidamente pouco preparadas para as mudanças de temperatura.
- Restaurantes cada vez mais caros.
- Comércio de rua bastante fraco, com a maior parte das lojas interessantes localizadas em centros comerciais fora do centro da cidade.
- Poucas bibliotecas públicas com horário acessível.
- Poucas livrarias bem apetrechadas.
- Pessoas muito desconfiadas umas das outras e por, consequência, pouco abertas ao convívio fora da família e dos colegas.

Palestinian statehood: Recognition amidst erasure? (25min Vid)
After almost 2 years of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Western powers have issued synchronised declarations recognising Palestinian statehood – a diplomatic move seemingly born out of the immense public pressure they face. What’s missing from the story is the concrete measures those governments could take to stop the slaughter in Gaza, as well as their complicity by continuing to supply weapons to Israel.
