It’s been just over a week since protesters took over the Branford Price Millar Library at Portland State University as part of demonstrations against Israel’s war in Gaza. Police eventually cleared the building and classes resumed last Friday, but the library remains closed as damage to the collections and facilities are assessed. Cris Paschild is an associate dean, university archivist and head of special collections at PSU. She joins us with more details on the Millar Library’s state and when it might reopen.

If the data relating to electoral bonds placed the spotlight on corporate entities buying favours from political parties, the actions of enforcement agencies point to officials taking cues from their political masters in going after opposition politicians. The Indian Express newspaper reported on April 3 that as many as 23 out of 25 prominent politicians who crossed over to the BJP since 2014 earned a reprieve from prosecution. So, how is India faring in the battle against corruption? Or is selective targeting reducing the campaign against corruption to a farce?

New schools, underfunded departmental budgets better roads and a new bus station are on the wish lists of MHKs Joney Faragher and Michelle Haywood. The government is struggling to control a substantial financial deficit so where is the money coming from? Hopefully we'll know more when this year's Manx budget is delivered in just over a week's time but the MHKs give their take on Perspective. Treasury's magic money tree has been diseased for sometime now so can we continue to shake it without addressing the financial diseases that afflict it?

Congressional lawmakers established a new arbitration process when they passed the No Surprises Act in December 2020. Since April 2022, payers and providers have been able to have a third-party settle payment disputes over out-of-network claims.

On today's episode of Gist Healthcare Daily, Matthew Fiedler, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, joins the podcast to talk more about how the process has fared overall since its launch.

In July alone, more than 1,500 acres of Connecticut farmland flooded over, representing $21 million in lost sales revenue.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and Diaspora reporter Canaan Lidor join host Amanda Borschel-Dan in today's episode. Last night, an Israeli driver was lightly hurt in yet another shooting attack near the northern West Bank town of Huwara. His vehicle was hit with some dozen bullets at this flashpoint, which saw another attack earlier this week. Fabian explains what makes this such a ripe target for terrorism. Fabian updates with more details of the perpetrator of the shocking tragic killing of three IDF soldiers on the Egyptian border on Saturday. At about 3 am local time Tuesday night, the Nova Kakhovka dam exploded in what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy calls Europe's largest human-made disaster in decades. The masses of water have flooded two dozen villages and forced the evacuation of 17,000 people. Lidor updates on the status of the Kherson Jewish community. On Thursday, 2-year-old Mohammed Tamimi and his father were hit by gunshots as Israeli soldiers returned fire at Palestinian gunmen who had shot at the settlement of Neve Tzuf. Mohammed died at Sheba Hospital on Monday and was buried yesterday. Fabian explains how has the IDF responded to his death and what happened after his funeral yesterday. The decade-long charged saga involving the site of a Jewish cemetery in Vilnius that was slated to become an events center has come to a resolution. Lidor describes the site now meant to be used for and talks about the Foundation for Jewish Heritage's recent report on how similar sites should be handled. Discussed articles include: Israeli motorist lightly hurt in terror shooting near flashpoint Huwara — IDF Egyptian cop who killed IDF troops is named, said to have griped about border duty Ukraine, Russia trade blame for devastating dam collapse that displaces thousands Kherson Jews among thousands forced to flee rising water after Ukraine dam rupture Clashes erupt as Palestinians hold funeral for toddler mistakenly shot by IDF Lithuanian city vows to preserve ancient Jewish cemetery it had sought to dig up Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on iTunes, Spotify, PlayerFM, Google Play, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The Grabby Values Selection Thesis: What values do space-faring civilizations plausibly have?, published by Jim Buhler on May 6, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Summary: The Grabby Values Selection Thesis (or GST, for short) is the thesis that some values are more expansion-conducive (and therefore more adapted to space colonization races) than others such that we should – all else equal – expect such values to be more represented among the grabbiest civilizations/AGIs. In this post, I present and argue for GST, and raise some considerations regarding how strong and decisive we should expect this selection effect to be. The stronger it is, the more we should expect our successors – in worlds where the future of humanity is big – to have values more grabbing-prone than ours. The same holds for grabby aliens relative to us present humans. While these claims are trivially true, they seem to support conclusions that most longtermists have not paid attention to, such as “the most powerful civilizations don't care about what the moral truth might be” (see my previous post), and “they don't care (much) about suffering” (see my forthcoming next post). The thesis Spreading to new territories can be motivated by very different values and seems to be a convergent instrumental goal. Whatever a given agent wants, they likely have some incentive to accumulate resources and spread to new territories in order to better achieve their goal(s). However, not all moral preferences are equally conducive to expansion. Some of them value (intrinsically or instrumentally) colonization more than others. For instance, agents who value spreading intrinsically will likely colonize more and/or more efficiently than those who disvalue being the direct cause of something like “space pollution”, in the interstellar context. Therefore, there is a selection effect where the most powerful civilizations/AGIs are those who have the values that are the most prone to “grabbing”. This is the Grabby Values Selection Thesis (GST), which is the formalization and generalization of an idea that has been expressed by Robin Hanson (1998). We can differentiate between two sub-selection effects, here: The intra-civ (grabby values) selection: Within a civilization, those who colonize space and influence the future of the civilization are those with the most grabby-prone values. Here is a specific plausible instance of that selection effect, given by Robin Hanson (1998): “Far enough away from the origin of an expanding wave of interstellar colonization, and in the absence of property rights in virgin oases, a selection effect should make leading edge colonists primarily value whatever it takes to stay at the leading edge.” The inter-civ (grabby values) selection: The civilizations that end up with the most grabby-prone values will get more territory than the others. Do these two different sub-selection effects matter equally? My current impression is that this mainly depends on the likelihood of an early value lock-in – or of design escaping selection early and longlastingly, in Robin Hanson's (2022) terminology – where “early” means “before grabby values get the time to be selected for within the civilization”. If such an early value lock-in occurs, the inter-civ selection effect is the only one left. If it doesn't occur, however, the importance of the intra-civ selection effect seems vastly superior to that of the inter-civ one. This is mainly explained by the fact that there is very likely much more room for selection effects within a (not-locked-in) civilization than in between different civilizations. GST seems trivially true. It is pretty obvious that all values are not equal in terms of how much they value (intrinsically or instrumentally) space colonization, and that those who value space expansion more ...
