Gary Peters (D-MI) & Chris Coons (D-DE) both receive significant backing from manufacturing, chemical, and building trade unions that heavily lobbied for #BAAJA due to the TEMPORARY construction jobs that special constructions argue that data centers & grid updates will create.

Excellent thread, and why pushing back on these narrative constructions is important.
Also gets to why the requirement of the appearance of civility over the substance of it (ie lionising Kirk vs being honest about him) is so dangerous.

When Charlie Kirk died, conservatives tried to make him a national martyr. Liberal gentry enthusiastically joined in.
If successful it would have been a significiant cultural victory for fascism, entrenching its power.
Instead he became a laughingstock.
In retrospect this was a turning point. 🧵

One post, three screenshots: honest reading? A little too staccato to induce a sense of calm. Here’s the change that could really bite — smear these sentence constructions together. It’s not fractionation, it’s confusion.

this also really clearly contains why some particular Claudish constructions are so friend-shaped to me; I like high-density prose and, in fiction at least, the *more* perplexed I am the better, so the logos golems give me a steady supply of faint xenolinguistics to gnaw on
Our hypothesis: LLMs have a pressure for information density, leading to compressed language, novel ngrams, and a preference for short alternatives in linguistic alternations, even when this is not humanlike - humans have a pressure for successful communication with other humans

Really like having it outlined why LLMs by default talk in such a grating and annoying way and the specific constructions which make me read their output that way
What distinguishes these forms is they are power moves, and we do use them effectively. But the AI being an overpowered text machine doesn't understand it's deploying them before they've been earned
Ruthlessly deploying rhetorical form over theory of mind

i think there might be differences in the goals and extents of these constructions that are somewhat fundamental and also different
All the morons circle jerking in this thread appear to view transitioning as a conscious act of creative expression.
Consciously building a gendered identity as an act of creative artistic expression is called DRAG.
You're not trans. You're a drag queen.

rational constructions enjoyed equal status with a transcendent realm built upon unalloyed reason. Products of a defunct Cartesian theory of correspondence. We now recognize those mental constructions; sovereignty, property, the general will, as flawed through and through.

Hopefully covered is separate from enclosed & it looks as though they are targeting "large-sized constructions (especially between 10 and 15 m² or more)"🤞

not a Maas fan, but OFC reading for pleasure has its own power and meaning. I detest the puritanical constructions of reading that tell us we must only read highbrow "literature" and sneer at those who read anything less. Plenty of things to critique romantasy for, but this one thing isnt it.

They are not being cheered. These constructions were build by the ones abusing it. The royal families and the leftish marxist nazis that survived after ww2. Everyone should pay their taxes. In Europe a lot of tax constructions are being used. Especially the Netherlands where they have postal firms.

We show that, like VC schemes, VCR schemes can be used to compile interactive oracle protocols to hash-based interactive reductions, enabling constructions such as hash-based SNARKs and accumulation.

So I guess we could broaden out the paper to look at former nuclear weapons testing sites and their articulations/constructions across multi-scalar heritage regimes & national projects/purposes.
