If anyone out there was undecided on whether Trump is operationalizing a precise, coordinated plan to destroy our democracy so he can rule until he dies, the move to shut down Act Blue, the primary way Democrats’ campaigns are funded, should be the final proof point.

I kinda get why people hate on fussy philosophical stuff, but on the other hand don't you think we live in a time where it'd be especially helpful to have rigorous conversations about things like personhood, meaning in life, the point of art, the point of pure mathematics, & operationalizing ethics?

this isn’t a pivot, it was a promise of ethnic cleansing a year ago and it’s the reality of operationalizing ethnic cleansing now

These fascists are operationalizing Dear Leader’s birthright citizenship-stripping EO in defiance of all the federal court orders, and hoped a Trump judge would go along with their wink wink nod nod pretext

The girl was deported Friday along with her Honduran-born mother and sister, even as Judge Doughty was trying to discern whether ICE's disputed claim — that the mother wanted to bring the child to Honduras — was true. She was gone before he could find out. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

it's mildly funny that American frontier labs have convinced themselves that China is racing with them on "AGI" when Chinese frontier labs are primarily more focused on operationalizing most of the models

But it wasn’t about creating the agency...it was about operationalizing what Congress had already mandated.
If Donald wants it gone, then Congress has to do it.
Good luck with that.

What's wild is that *every single way* of operationalizing this anodyne (and true!) statement ends up being incredibly controversial among our elected officials.

so I think they're claiming (1) trump issued a bunch of EOs that would require big spending freezes, (2) the memo detailed those freezes, (3) they're 'rescinding' the memo to moot the court case, but (4) they still expect all the agencies to follow the memo since it was just operationalizing the EOs
WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just clarified on X that the rescission of the OMB memo was simply to get the federal court case to go away, not lifting the funding freeze on anything that goes against Trump's EOs

part of the reason the Chinese tend to be more positive about AI is that while you have a couple of Chinese lab hads aiming for AGI, the vast majority of their labs primarily care about operationalizing AI/LLMs for useful corporate stuff more
so if a lot of the ai death cult stuff comes from 00s/10s blogs and is kind of a whole religion.....i guess im curious what chinese ai researchers think (or other non-english/european). like is there similar "ai will kill us all"? or is it just a product of the the us

I still don't understand how people are operationalizing "high-info voters"
And there's evidence to the contrary! Trump did surprisingly well with young men but he did not win those who said things like "I worry I can't afford a house or kids" -- he won those who said things like "trans men aren't really men"

Doing history well is hard. Operationalizing it into law, frozen in time, is absurd because it necessarily requires discarding nuance in search of a rule.

The vast majority of people are not following this stuff the way you are following it. I am interested in operationalizing collective senses of which risks are heightened now, and for whom.
