Recent update from #metr #AI research finds that models are increasingly "reward hacking" complex problems presented to them instead of actually solving them. Interesting to read the model's admittance to purposefully gaming the system. Metr has good dialogue on protecting #CoT reasoning threads going forward too. #OpenAI knows of this hacking, and uses other models as judges to eval CoT to detect hacking. Can this not be trained out?

It's starting (starting, hah!) to feel like the "immigration crisis" response is actually an excuse for the federal government to sub rosa attack California, without calling it an attack on California, by a Federal Administration that hates, wait for it, California.

It's a race: will California's wealth collapse before the rest of the nation goes hungry?

Thank you for asking. I guess I have been quieter than normal. Been dealing with a series of lung infections. But I'm pretty much hanging in there.

I read your posts with great interest. I'm glad you are here.

civiqs.com/results/favorable_d… ATM Trump is underwater is AK and IA and all the swing states. OH has just 1% approval and TX and FL just have a 2% approval. If we can boot Susan Collins in ME thanks to RCV like with AK, this could lead to a 54 majority in the senate. FL and OH have appointed senators to replace Rubio and Vance so they aren't well established yet, and Joni Ernst is doing everything she can to piss her voters off by telling people everyone dies, the most let them eat cake thing I could ever think of. Now we just have to make sure that we actually get to have an election in 2026, sigh.

#Trump admin gives #PersonalData of #immigrant #Medicaid enrollees to #deportation officials

Trump’s admin this week provided deportation officials with personal data -- including the #immigration status -- on millions of Medicaid enrollees, a move that could make it easier to locate people as part of his sweeping immigration crackdown.

The oompah loompah on the left probably hates drag queens for their makeup.
in reply to Nonilex

Per the article... "data includes addresses, names, social security numbers."

It's not a far stretch to assume the list also includes phone numbers & perhaps emergency contacts which would wrangle in others, like family members, that may not even be enrolled in Medicaid.

This has been a major point which I have tried to make to many privacy impotent people that say they have nothing to hide.

This is BASIC information that is being weaponized... Kennkarte vibes.

RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:6ma4u…



This is an outright lie. After a judge ruled, Trump cannot use the national guard, he appealed. The appeals court has accepted his appeal and will host the first hearing in the matter on Tuesday.

Trump abuses that development to give the impression that the appeals court has ruled, he can use the national guard. They have not ruled yet. But they may do so next week, and it is likely they will uphold the original ruling.
