No, bombing Yandex has not impacted automated Russian trolling operations in the U.S.

I think "friendly and inclusive" here just means "my content is amplified and my views don't get challenged", which is different to how others see "friendly and inclusive", but that's just a guess

If confirmed, this is telling: Russian data centres get hit, and online activity around AfD suddenly plummets.
So much talk about German patriotism... then the connection from Russia goes down.

I’d love to see a credible source on this but I’m seeing some people saying that Ukraine’s drone strikes on Russian data centers has significantly reduced Russian bot activity on social media, lol

Brianna has been going on a tirade about how Real Women don't like playing sports anyway, and I'm deeply disgusted I wanted to be a girl since I was 4 and was a three-time varsity letterman.

The boys that grew up wanting to be girls don't excel at sports

The backstory: Ukrainian drones struck a Yandex supercomputer facility in Vladimir, taking it out. Suddenly, bot activity in US social media fell by 49%, confirming suspicions that this was the site of a massive Russian influence operation targeting US social media—mostly targeting MAGA.

I absolutely love threads like these. Methodology change *means you are measuring something in a different way* kills me that we just gloss over it constantly

The biggest shift in the series came in 2021, when CDC changed the answer choices and moved the survey from spring to fall. Among 9th graders, 85% identified as heterosexual in 2019, 73% in 2021 and 2023, and 80% in 2025. About half of the 2021 drop went to options that did not exist before.

I've seen this work best with a human mediator, since we have this through a trusted instagram account in Berlin

Scientists don’t know how TYLENOL works!!!

HHélianthe@helianthe.netOct 10, 2026, 5:29 PM

much respect for Professor Tao, but there are so so so many medical therapies that work without anyone really understanding how or why they work one of the great things about science is that we can use empirical knowledge in practice far ahead of when theoretical frameworks catch up to refine it

Presentation slide titled “A thought experiment on alignment and understanding.” It describes a hypothetical AI-generated chemical cocktail that, when injected into a patient, kills all their cancer cells. The solution is confirmed by mathematical models, stage 3 clinical trials, and even “somehow” verified in Lean. The slide asks whether this solution could nevertheless be misaligned with broader goals, such as avoiding harmful long-term side effects. It then asks whether, before receiving the injection, you would want at least one human cancer expert to understand the cure’s mechanism, or a human mathematician to understand the mathematical model used to find the cocktail. “Misaligned” and both instances of “understands” are highlighted in red. The footer reads “Terence Tao” and “Math 2.0.”

Yeah, they're particularly good with more savoury toppings rather than the usual cream cheese. We get a good rosemary sea salt, though I think thyme would also be pretty tasty

You couldn't do that for plc because "matt" could never be a hash of the input data on initial DID creation

If I built an AI lab and it went rogue and deleted all student loan information, I'm betting they'd suddenly figure out how to prosecute me.

Anthropic is the latest lab to report 'rogue' agent activity, which sources said included applying for visas with the State Department www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/t...

I kinda just want one such app for the atmosphere where that can be embedded, much like stream.place can be

@thisismissem.socialOct 10, 2026, 12:09 AM

That.. looks nothing like me?

@thisismissem.socialOct 9, 2026, 11:33 PM

I didn't get to fix it, I just found a likely cause. I wasn't even sure if my read on the code was right tbh.

@thisismissem.socialOct 9, 2026, 11:11 PM

You'd have to revoke the entire grant, not individual permissions as the permissions are contained within the grant

@thisismissem.socialOct 9, 2026, 10:30 PM

Hope you're feeling better soon!
