After Jimmy finished reading Hawkgirl: Once upon a Galaxy, he had to invite Jadzia Axelrod onto the podcast. Not only is her Hawkgirl run with Amancay Nahuelpan tremendous, it is now canon that Kendra is a Philadelphia Eagles fan and her "Go Birds!" may be the first in DC Comics history. Of course, Jadzia and Jimmy discuss Galaxy: The Prettiest Star, Galaxy's appearance in Hawkgirl, and Jadzia teases the just announced Galaxy: As the World Falls Down! This is a fantastic conversation about comics, but don't miss Jadzia discussing the development of the Metropolis hot dog. Go Birds!  Jadzia's website: https://www.jadziaaxelrod.com/ Follow Jadzia on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/planetx.bsky.social Galaxy: As The World Falls Down! From the publisher The highly anticipated sequel to the YA trans coming-out graphic novel Galaxy: The Prettiest Star brings more romance, more action, and more queer joy as Taylor faces her biggest fear: the Vane. Taylor Barzelay is finally living as her authentic self, a purple alien space princess with blue hair and superpowers. With a loving girlfriend, Kat, and an adorable talking corgi that doubles as a bodyguard, Taylor should feel more at home on Earth than ever. So why doesn't she? As Kat plans for life after high school, Taylor begins to wonder what the future holds for her. Despite dealing with bigots in her hometown, protecting her friend Nia Nal from an evil alien aunt, and honing her powers more than ever before, Taylor still isn't sure she can claim her identity as the superhero Galaxy. When the Vane, an alien race that destroyed her home planet, finally arrive on earth in search of Taylor, her biggest fear becomes reality. If Superman can't even handle this threat, what chance does Taylor have to save her best friend, the love of her life, and the entire world?! Will she cast aside any doubt in time to become the hero she was always destined to be? Hawkgirl: Once Upon a Galaxy From the publisher SOARING TO NEW HEIGHTS, BATTLING NEW FOES! Hawkgirl, a.k.a. Kendra Saunders, needs a fresh start…and Metropolis is just the place to begin her new post Justice-League life. But when a mysterious villain with a powerful connection to the Nth metal that makes up Hawkgirl's wings starts causing trouble, Kendra will finally have to admit she needs help. New hero Galaxy can manipulate all kinds of energy, and her dog Argus can talk, but will they be enough to stop the monsters terrorizing nightclubs, dragons destroying skyscrapers, and the very dimension they live in collapsing in on itself? And can they survive…the Nth World?! This brand-new adventure with sky-high action, adventure, and intrigue by Jadzia Axelrod (Galaxy: The Prettiest Star) and Amancay Nahuelpan (Wonder Woman, Detective Comics, The Flash) collects Hawkgirl #1-6.

Shameless plug 03 au 05 juin 2025 - Infosecurity Europe 27 et 29 juin 2025 - LeHACK 12 au 17 octobre 2025 - Objective by the sea v8 10 au 12 novembre 2025 - IAQ - Le Rendez-vous IA Québec 17 au 20 novembre 2025 - European Cyber Week 25 et 26 février 2026 - SéQCure 2065 Description Contexte et Participants Ce quatrième épisode de collaboration entre “Cyber Citoyen” et “PolySécure” réunit Catherine Dupot-Gagnon et Sam Harper, animé par Nicolas-Loïc Fortin. L'enregistrement fait suite à leur participation au NorthSec (NSec), une conférence de cybersécurité qui vient de se terminer. Retour sur NorthSec 2024 Impressions Générales Catherine exprime son enthousiasme pour NorthSec, qu'elle considère comme sa conférence préférée dans l'écosystème cybersécurité. Elle souligne l'aspect inclusif et accueillant de la communauté, même pour ceux qui ne correspondent pas au profil typique des participants. La diversité et la richesse des conférences, ainsi que l'authenticité des présentations (versus les conférences trop sponsorisées), contribuent à cette appréciation positive. Sam partage cette vision positive, notant que malgré une fatigue initiale, il a apprécié la variété des présentations allant du très technique à la gouvernance. Il souligne particulièrement la présence d'académiques présentant leurs recherches pour la première fois, ce qui enrichit considérablement le contenu. L'événement se distingue par son degré d'inclusion remarquable, comparable selon Nicolas au Blue Team Con de Chicago. Cette atmosphère inclusive est attribuée aux valeurs du comité organisateur qui se propagent naturellement à travers l'événement. Conférence Coup de Cœur : Le Phishing Basé sur des Données Sam présente en détail une conférence particulièrement marquante sur le phishing, adoptant une approche scientifique et non-jugeante. Cette présentation analysait les comportements face aux tentatives de phishing sans blâmer les individus, mais en se concentrant sur les données statistiques. Les résultats révèlent des patterns fascinants : même 5 minutes après une formation sur le phishing, 0,3% des personnes cliquent encore sur les liens malveillants. L'étude montre qu'il est impossible d'atteindre un taux de réussite de 100%, certaines personnes continuant à cliquer indépendamment des formations reçues. Un élément particulièrement intéressant concerne le timing : la plupart des clics se produisent le lundi matin, quand les employés arrivent au travail avec des boîtes de réception pleines. Cette découverte suggère des solutions organisationnelles plutôt que techniques, comme reporter les réunions du lundi matin ou gérer différemment les emails de fin de semaine. Activités Annexes Les participants évoquent également les activités de soudure (badge hacking) et les CTF (Capture The Flag). Cette année, le thème était celui d'un bateau de croisière avec un casino intégré, permettant aux participants d'interagir avec des machines de casino pour découvrir des “flags” cachés. Ces activités offrent des défis variés, incluant des éléments plus “puzzle” accessibles aux non-programmeurs. Actualités Cybersécurité Storm-1516 : Opérations d'Influence Russe Sam présente un rapport détaillé de Viginum, l'agence française de vigilance numérique, sur Storm-1516, une opération d'influence russe active depuis août 2023. Cette analyse de 77 opérations révèle une machine de désinformation sophistiquée. Objectifs et Méthodes Les campagnes visent principalement à discréditer le gouvernement ukrainien, particulièrement Zelensky, tout en s'attaquant à l'opposition russe et aux gouvernements occidentaux. Une vingtaine d'opérations ciblaient spécifiquement des élections (européennes, françaises, américaines, allemandes). Schéma de Diffusion Le rapport détaille un processus en plusieurs étapes : Planification : Rédaction de scripts, recrutement d'acteurs, création de deepfakes et montages vidéo Primo-diffusion : Utilisation de comptes jetables se faisant passer pour des lanceurs d'alerte ou journalistes pigistes Blanchiment : Reprise par des médias étrangers rémunérés, particulièrement en Afrique et Asie, et par des influenceurs payés Amplification : Utilisation de réseaux comme CopyСop pour créer de faux sites d'information Récupération : Reprise finale par les médias pro-russes et l'écosystème occidental sympathisant Implications et Sophistication Catherine fait le parallèle avec le jeu éducatif “Get Bad News” qu'elle utilise dans ses cours sur la désinformation, qui reproduit exactement ces stratégies. La sophistication de ces opérations rend leur détection par les utilisateurs ordinaires quasi impossible, même pour des experts du domaine. Telegram : Coopération Forcée L'arrestation de Pavel Durov, fondateur de Telegram, a marqué un tournant dans la coopération de la plateforme avec les autorités. Environ 5000 requêtes gouvernementales ont abouti à la transmission de données sur 20000 utilisateurs, principalement suite à des demandes françaises et américaines. Contexte et Controverses Catherine souligne l'ironie de la situation : Telegram, qui se vantait d'être une plateforme de libre expression sans contrôle, a rapidement changé de position face aux pressions judiciaires. Elle évoque le scandale des “Nth rooms” en Corée du Sud, où 73 victimes (dont 26 mineures) avaient été exploitées via des salles de conversation Telegram, illustrant les dérives possibles de la liberté d'expression absolue. Débat sur la Liberté d'Expression La discussion révèle la tension fondamentale entre liberté d'expression et protection des droits humains. Sam note que l'anonymat combiné au “free speech” total crée un environnement sans conséquences, favorisant les comportements extrêmes. L'expérience historique montre qu'aucune plateforme de libre expression absolue n'a eu d'issue positive. Catherine et Sam reconnaissent néanmoins l'importance de préserver des espaces de communication sécurisés pour les communautés persécutées (LGBTQ+, dissidents politiques). L'équilibre reste difficile à trouver entre protection des vulnérables et prévention des abus. SignalGate : Nouvelles Préoccupations Nicolas introduit un nouveau volet du “SignalGate” concernant TeleMessage, un client Signal utilisé par des fonctionnaires américains pour la rétention légale des messages. Cette plateforme a été compromise facilement, soulevant des questions sur l'écosystème distribué de Signal. Problème Fondamental Le modèle de sécurité de Signal repose sur la confiance accordée aux clients. Or, rien ne garantit que l'interlocuteur utilise un client légitime. TeleMessage enregistrait tous les messages, contredisant les promesses de confidentialité de Signal. Absence de Réponse Catherine exprime sa déception face au silence de Signal sur cette problématique. Contrairement à leur habitude de communication proactive, l'organisation n'a émis aucun communiqué ni annoncé de solution pour détecter les clients non-officiels. Solutions Techniques Possibles Les participants discutent de solutions potentielles : Signal pourrait alerter les utilisateurs quand leur correspondant utilise un client desktop ou non-officiel. Cette information existe déjà dans le protocole, rendant l'implémentation techniquement faisable. Sam note que l'impact va au-delà : le groupe Distributed Denial of Secrets a publié 410 Go de données extraites de TeleMessage, incluant messages et métadonnées, compromettant potentiellement des lanceurs d'alerte. Réflexions sur l'Écosystème Numérique Gestion du Risque et Éducation La discussion révèle un déficit généralisé dans la compréhension et la gestion du risque numérique. Les participants soulignent que même des personnes éduquées (secrétaires d'État, universitaires) peinent à évaluer correctement les risques liés aux outils qu'ils utilisent. Guillaume insiste sur la nécessité d'intégrer une forme de gestion de risque rapide dans l'usage quotidien des technologies, reconnaissant que l'humain résiste naturellement au changement d'habitudes, même face à des statistiques alarmantes. Évolution des Menaces L'ensemble des sujets abordés illustre une sophistication croissante des menaces, que ce soit dans la désinformation d'État ou l'exploitation des plateformes de communication. Les “gentils” se retrouvent systématiquement en position défensive, avec des moyens limités face à des adversaires qui exploitent efficacement les technologies conçues pour faciliter la communication. Incident du Chicago Sun-Times En conclusion plus légère, Catherine présente le cas du Chicago Sun-Times qui a publié une liste de livres d'été générée par IA, incluant des titres complètement inventés (hallucinations). Cet incident illustre une paresse journalistique préoccupante où l'économie de temps permise par l'IA (réduire 5 jours de travail à 3) ne s'accompagne même pas d'une vérification minimale. Problème de Compréhension des Outils IA Catherine souligne que beaucoup de personnes, même éduquées, ne comprennent pas la différence fondamentale entre une recherche Google (qui indexe du contenu existant) et une requête ChatGPT (qui génère statistiquement des réponses plausibles). Cette confusion contribue à l'acceptation aveugle de contenus générés artificiellement. L'exemple de l'étudiant ayant demandé à ChatGPT une citation de Catherine Dupot-Gagnon, aboutissant à une référence vers un livre inexistant, illustre parfaitement ces dérives. Les modèles IA peuvent également être manipulés, comme l'exemple de Bing temporairement convaincu que l'Australie n'existait pas après avoir été entraîné sur des blagues Reddit. Conclusions et Perspectives Ce podcast révèle un écosystème numérique en mutation profonde, où les technologies conçues pour faciliter la communication et l'accès à l'information sont systématiquement détournées par des acteurs malveillants. Que ce soit les opérations de désinformation d'État, l'exploitation des plateformes de communication, ou la génération de fausses informations par IA, les défis s'accumulent. Les participants identifient plusieurs problèmes structurels : le déficit d'éducation à la gestion du risque numérique, la difficulté à maintenir un équilibre entre liberté d'expression et protection des droits humains, et l'asymétrie fondamentale entre la facilité de créer de fausses informations et la difficulté de les combattre. Malgré ce tableau sombre, l'échange maintient une note d'espoir, rappelant que la sensibilisation et l'éducation restent nos meilleurs outils. L'exemple de NorthSec montre qu'il est possible de créer des espaces inclusifs et constructifs pour aborder ces défis collectivement. La discussion se termine sur une note humoristique évoquant une retraite vers “une cabane dans le bois” avec élevage de brebis et poules pour échapper à la singularité technologique, illustrant avec ironie les sentiments d'impuissance face à l'ampleur des défis identifiés.

Show notes provided by Joe PelusoWhat do you get when you take a police procedural, mix it with science fiction and super-heroes, throw in social and political overtones that reflect modern society--and--call it an origin story? You get one guess--and it has nothing to do with a dead planet named Krypton. Give up? Well, the answer is Timothy Truman's three issuemasterpiece--HAWKWORLD.    Join you hosts Keith and Joe for another installment of "Thinking Out of the Longbox With Keith" as the boys strap on their Nth metal wings and fly into an adventure of dynamic discovery of one of DC's seminal characters--Hawkman. The later half of the decade of the 1980's saw many DC icons reimagined for a modern age as the Crisis on Infinite Earths opened the door to new, fresh version of Superman, Wonder Woman, The Batman, The Flash, Green Arrow, and the "wingedwonder" from the Planet Thanagar!    Truman's Hawkworld is a gritty, commentary on the abuse of power, and how it can tear apart an individual who has had his life mapped out for him. Katar Hol is a man fighting demons of the heart and mind, as well as those that prey on the less fortunate in the real world.The guys discuss the themes and tones such a world would impose on one man, and how he must fall from grace to eventually conquer all his demons so that he may become the beloved Silver Age version of Hawkman.    And as they extol the virtues of Truman's dynamic and nuanced writing, they fairly flip their minds when they profusely praise his incredible art.    This is a book the guys have been wanting to wax poetic about for a long time. We feel sure you will enjoy the discourse of this somewhat overlooked gem from comics best decade.And that classic exclamation "Look up in the sky!"--takes on a whole new meaning after reading Hawkworld!

If any season is movie-watching season, it's now. When we knew we wanted to make a Christmas movie-focused episode, 2008's A Christmas Tale and 2005's The Family Stone sprang to mind right away: These are matriarch-centric Christmas movies that take the whole mom-at-Christmastime thing to the Nth degree. Each in their own way, they put the intense time we spend gathered together with our families of origin at the holidays under a microscope. So, what do The Family Stone and A Christmas Tale have in common? Just about everything, except that one is American and has Dermot Mulroney at his hottest(?) and the other is extremely French and involves a LOT of people smoking cigarettes non-stop. We get dig under the surface of these two films — both of which are centered around big families gathered at the holidays around powerful, complicated matriarchs — with our (new) friends Andie and Sabrina of the Pop Culture Moms podcast.Links: * A Christmas Tale* The Family Stone* Pop Culture Moms on Apple Podcasts, Instagram, and Spotify This is a public episode.

The first building block to becoming a truly productive person is scheduling. Gretchen Rubin's personality test shows me as a questioner leaning towards a rebel. I love reinventing the wheel. As you know, I have been doing this through my PhD. And I recently came across a study that I have now read many times called “Who's Remembering to Buy The Eggs?” by Julie Holliday Wayne et al. It uses the term Invisible Family Load. Invisible Family Load I just loved the intentionality and thoroughness of the words she selected to sum up the invisible work of household managers. She started with invisible instead of mental which would imply mental only, but what about scheduling? Planning or worrying? Invisible is inclusive and encompassing. And then she used the word family to include people outside the structure of the home that a household manager would be caring for, like a college student or elderly family member. And lastly, she selected load instead of labor. Labor you get paid to do. Load was explained as being put on, burdensome, or weighing down a mind, thus requiring cognitive load and not getting paid for it. Do you know the top two tasks people marked the most as invisible in a study? Planning (#1) and Scheduling (#2); I think I'm onto something!!  Schedules Sunday Basket® I explained a few times that I created different types of schedules I have had in this episode. When I was still in-home organizing, I developed two types of schedules. I had one for working outside my home and one for working from home. I found that when a client canceled at the last minute, I would get frustrated and I was stumped on how to move forward with my day. Once I developed schedules, or scaffolding, for outside or inside work, I would just move to my working from home schedule when clients canceled. For my family, we had a weekend schedule and weekday schedule. Schedules simply keep you on task and eliminate decision making. Every Sunday, I go through my Sunday Basket®. Depending on things that need to get done that week, I can fill in my schedule, keeping in mind the routines I have established. It's a general guide or, as I mentioned, scaffolding.  Scaffolding Planning Days Schedules give you structure but keep in mind, they can be reevaluated. Planning Days give you an opportunity to tweak your schedules. The Sunday Basket® is weekly and Planning Days offer the scaffolding, zooming out a little. Maybe you notice you want to change activities on different days due to a sports schedule change or getting your PhD. In Home Planning Day, we develop routines for morning, afternoon, and evening. In Workbox Planning Day, we develop routines for starting your work day, mid day, and ending your work day. Those six routines reduce your cognitive load. You made a plan proactively, now all you have to do is run it, go on autopilot.  Level Up Scheduling Wanna take scheduling to the Nth degree? Schedule the people coming to your home. I mean, book them out far enough that you can get a complete list of all tasks before they come for the appointment. Once you know they are coming, you may find more tasks for them to complete. And schedule meetings with people. I used to want to connect with people but felt rude telling them it would have to wait two weeks, so I just wouldn't reach out or reply. I found over time that people don't mind at all. Book the meeting and connect. It may seem weird to book out two months, but the day will be there before you know it and you'll be connecting like you desired. Truly productive people are always looking at their schedules and realize they support them through scaffolding. Schedules do not limit them. Up next? Consistency!

En Corée du Sud, la découverte de groupes privés Telegram révèle l'ampleur des cas de harcèlement sexuel en ligne dont les femmes sont les premières victimes. Des groupes féministes coréens ont révélé l'existence de salons de discussion privés où plus de 200 000 hommes échangeraient des photos et vidéos de femmes prises sans leur consentement ou même modifiées par intelligence artificielle pour en faire des vidéos pornographiques. Un énième scandale de la sorte après celui du salon de discussion similaire « Nth room », en 2018 et 2020, qui révèle une forme de banalité des violences sexuelles dans la société sud-coréenne. De notre correspondant à Séoul,Du lycée à l'entreprise, les témoignages de femmes victimes de harcèlement sexuel en ligne affluent depuis plusieurs jours sur les réseaux sociaux. Et ces révélations secouent la Corée du Sud. « Quand j'étais au lycée, j'ai été harcelée sur Facebook par un garçon de mon établissement. À cette période, mon nom, mon école, ma classe, mes notes, ont été révélés », témoigne une jeune femme, qui préfère rester anonyme. « Pour être honnête, j'ai peu d'espoir, continue-t-elle, peu importe si j'évite les hommes, ils n'utilisent pas seulement les photos que nous postons sur nos réseaux sociaux, ils piratent également ces comptes, utilisent nos visages sur des photos de groupes, même nos photos de classe, pour créer des vidéos de deepfake. » Pour parvenir à de fausses vidéos très croyables, l'intelligence artificielle (IA) est en effet utilisée pour calquer le visage de victimes à partir d'une photo sur une vidéo pornographique. Cela afin de créer une fausse sextape. À écouter dans 8 milliards de voisinsLes femmes face au cyberharcèlement: comment se défendre?Depuis 2018 et le premier scandale de la « Nth room », des associations d'aide aux victimes se sont créées. Shin Seong-yeon en dirige une spécialisée sur le cyberharcèlement et connaît bien les rouages de ce système. « Ce genre d'images sont partagées dans des groupes comme sur Telegram ou d'autres sites. Il en existe énormément avec plusieurs dizaines de milliers de membres chacun », explique-t-elle. Et l'enjeu économique est fort : « Sur ces groupes, il y a des vendeurs qui échangent des photos, des vidéos contre de l'argent. De quelques centimes à environ sept euros pour une image, ce n'est vraiment pas cher, mais certains sont devenus riches grâce à cela. »Une législation défaillante qui pourrait être mise à jourUn phénomène aggravé par les progrès de la technologie de l'intelligence artificielle dont la législation coréenne peine à suivre, poursuit Shin Seong-yeon : « En Corée, il n'existe pas vraiment de loi contre ce genre de crime. Seule la loi contre la pornographie interdit la vente et la diffusion d'images à caractère sexuel. Mais cela ne prend pas en compte le préjudice, la violence contre les victimes. En Corée, le corps nu d'une femme est un plus grand problème que la violence qu'elle subit. »C'est pourquoi elle plaide pour une prise en compte par les politiques de ce sujet : « Il est nécessaire que les politiques prennent conscience de ce vide juridique et écrivent une nouvelle loi pour punir les cas de harcèlement sexuel en ligne. »Le président Yoon Suk-yeol a annoncé prendre au sérieux cette vague de crime qui touche, entre autres, des mineurs. Une commission parlementaire va également être mise en place pour potentiellement établir une nouvelle législation.À lire aussiTunisie: la forte cyberviolence dissuade les femmes de se lancer dans la politique et l'activisme

First time is a charm, right? For many climate technologies, building a first-of-a-kind (FOAK) project is a major barrier to widespread adoption and commercialization. The ecosystem of early-stage climate tech funding, such as venture capital and grants, is well-known and used to taking substantial risk for outsized impact. The pools of capital and expertise for turning those technologies into commercial-scale projects, however, is more challenging to navigate. Nevertheless, it is critical for companies to learn to navigate this gap to bring impactful technologies to scale. Deanna Zhang, CEO of V1 Climate Solutions, joins us on the show to talk all things FOAK. With a background in investment banking, she has built an expertise in helping companies navigate the pitfalls of FOAK projects and works with startups, investors, and corporates to help them define strategies to successful scale-up climate technologies.

A Whole New Take On Freedom // You Have Been Set Free, Part 1

Christianityworks Official Podcast

What does the Word freedom mean to you? Well – think about it. Is it being able to do whatever you want … or is it more about being free from the things that are holding you back? Hmmm.   A Revelation of Freedom Most of us, I guess, would define freedom as being able to do whatever we want whenever we want, and that definition right there is what brings a whole world of pain crashing down on our lives. I don't think there's a single person on this planet who doesn't want to be free. Do you want to be free? Well, of course you do; me too, but if freedom is that important to us, you have to ask yourself exactly what is it. Sure, there's political freedom; freedom of speech; freedom of association; the freedom to gather; to protest; to live where you want to live; to marry who you want to marry; to choose to have children or not. In this day and age, we live in a world that's more and more fixated on our individual freedoms, our rights as individuals. After all, I'm entitled to enjoy my life. Right? So it doesn't take too long to start imagining that freedom is being able to do whatever we want whenever we want. Anything that cuts across that is a restriction of our inalienable right to be free, and yet if you travel to any kind of place where that freedom is practised, what you discover is lawlessness and anarchy. There's no safety; there's no protection; there's no security because that anything, anytime kind of freedom is a terrible thing. That's what the rule of law is all about: To keep us safe and secure. So when you think about it, what we actually need is a different definition of freedom: One that really works. Try this one on for size. Galatians 1:3-4: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins to set us free from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father. It seems that God takes our freedom so seriously that He sent Jesus to suffer and die to set us free. From what? Well, from our sin, and from this evil age. So according to God real freedom, the sort of freedom that Jesus purchased for you on that cross, is about setting you free from the devastating consequences of your sin, and the evil that pervades every nook and cranny of this age, so that you can live in grace and peace. Not such a bad definition when you think about it. So here's a question for you: What sin, what evil, is robbing you of the freedom that Jesus came to give you? Because that sin, that evil, is what God is calling you to hand over to Him today. His will for you is to be free to live in the grace and the peace of Jesus Christ, but that's not always an easy thing to do. One of the things you discover when you set your heart on following Jesus is that the rest of the world is not going to be standing by and cheering you on. In fact, far from it. Not long after I became a Christian, a few decades ago now, the IT consulting firm at which I was a partner had the opportunity to bid for a rather large government project in the developing world, but the simple reality was that unless you paid the bribes to the various officials, you were completely wasting your time in bidding. As you can imagine, as a brand-new Christian, I was faced with a real dilemma. And can I tell you, I came under quite some pressure to compromise? It happens in every corner of our lives because when you decide to believe in Jesus, when you decide to follow Jesus, when you decide to live your life for Him, let me tell you, the world is not going to be all that happy with you. They'll criticise you; laugh at you; persecute you, whatever fits best at the time. You see, those people want you to believe that their way is the way of freedom; of success; of enjoyment. The world wants you to believe that following Jesus somehow is going to rob you of your freedom. What do you believe? Who are you trying to please; Jesus, or those naysayers around you? Paul the apostle made a very clear decision on that question in his life. Galatians 1:10: Am I now seeking human approval, or God's approval? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still pleasing people, I would not be a servant of Christ. People are so fickle. Have you noticed? Jesus did. That's why we're told in John 2:23-25 that: When He was in Jerusalem during the Passover festival, many believed in His name – because they saw the signs that He was doing, but Jesus on His part would not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all people and needed no one to testify about anyone, for He Himself knew what was in everyone. At some point, in every corner of our lives, every thought, every decision, every action, each one of us has to decide who we're trying to please; people, or God. And the way it tends to work is that it's not so much the big decisions that we make upfront that matter; it's the little decisions that we make a hundred times a day, that together tell us who we're really trying to please. Come on. Who are you trying to please with your life? Because if you're still seeking human approval, if you're still trying to please people, you wouldn't be a servant of Christ. Look. To experience freedom, real freedom, we need to stop focusing on the world. What we need is a spiritual revelation. The fact is that the freedom that only Jesus Christ can bring is a fantastic thing, but whilst the facts are incredibly important, you don't find freedom in facts. The apostle Paul was an interesting character. He was a member of the Sanhedrin, the ruling religious body in Jerusalem, and there's a reason that he made it to the top of the pile. Philippians 3:4-6: If anyone else has reason to be confident in the flesh, I have more. Circumcised on the eighth day, a member of the people of Israel, the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew born of Hebrews. As to the Law, a Pharisee. As to zeal, a persecutor of the church. As to righteousness under the Law, blameless. So Paul's heritage, his breeding, his upbringing, ticked all the right boxes. He studied the Old Testament Law; he knew it from back to front; he worked hard at it. You know the sort of person. He had all the head-knowledge that you could ask for, all the discipline that you could ever expect of anybody. On-top of that, he was a Pharisee. Now, this sect took the idea of following the Law to incredible lengths. The very word Pharisee means to be a religious separatist. He was absolutely full-on, and yet the one thing he didn't have was freedom, until one day on the road to Damascus, Jesus appeared to Him, and that encounter with Jesus was the turning-point of his life. This is what he writes years later, looking back on it. Galatians 1:11-12: For I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel that was proclaimed by me is not of human origin. For I did not receive it from a human source, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. So it wasn't something that he'd learned through years of study; it was a revelation. The original Greek word used there for revelation is the word 'apocalypsis'. In other words, it was an apocalyptic revelation. Dramatic! Powerful! Completely life-changing, and it wasn't a revelation about Jesus; it wasn't words from a book. Come on, Paul knew all those words in the Old Testament books; he'd studied them for years; he'd made it to the top of the religious pile that way, but that's not what changed his life. It wasn't a revelation about Jesus; it was a revelation of Jesus, through a personal encounter with Him. Have you had an apocalyptic revelation of the person of Jesus Christ? Have you had a dramatic, powerful, life-changing encounter with Jesus? No? Then get a revelation. Jesus is waiting for you, now. He wants to turn your life upside-down, now. All the head-knowledge in the world won't do that for you. Only Jesus.   Freedom is a Tricky Thing Freedom is a tricky thing. So often, we're our own worst enemies: Our perspective; our thoughts; our behaviour ... They all rob us of this elusive thing called freedom. Try as we might, we just can't grasp it. You've had that experience. Right? You know what it's like. There's something in your makeup, an Achilles heel if you will, that's constantly your undoing. For each one of us, it's something different, but at the end of the day, it trips you up again and again and again. Mine is perfectionism, which has a tendency to fuel anger. Yours? Well, you probably know what it is. Maybe it's insecurity; gossiping; a lack of compassion; selfishness ... Hey, the list runs as long as my arm, and then some. God has a simple name for it: He calls it sin. The devil loves to rub your nose in it, and just when you're feeling weak or tired, emotionally spent, he pushes your button and there you go again. For the apostle Paul, it was an obsessive hatred of the church. He, of course, was a Pharisee in the Jewish religion. Then Jesus came along and turned everything he'd ever believed in, everything he'd ever worked so hard for, completely upside-down. No wonder he hated Christians, but then ... Then he met Jesus and something changed in him. People were talking about it. Galatians 1:23: They heard it said, ‘The one who formerly was persecuting us is now proclaiming the faith he once tried to destroy', and they glorified God because of me. And he had been, too. He was a terrible persecutor of the church, until that day he met Jesus on the road to Damascus. You can read about it in the book of Acts, chapter 9. Ok. So he met Jesus, but what happened to turn him from a man breathing threats against the early church to the guy who ultimately wrote almost half the books of the New Testament? That's quite a turnaround, you'd have to admit. I'll tell you what happened: Jesus changed his heart. You know and I know that when we have a change of heart, our thoughts and our actions flow out of that, just as God promised in the days of old through Ezekiel. Ezekiel 11:19-20: I will give them one heart and put a new spirit within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh so that they may follow My statutes and keep My ordinances and obey them. When you encounter Jesus on your road, when you draw close to Him, when His Spirit fills you to overflowing, He does what you were powerless to do. He changes your heart which, as it turns out, changes everything. Sometimes though, it feels as though nothing's happening. Nothing! So what; has God forgotten me now? Has He left me on the shelf? We all want to feel as though God has some great plan for our lives. So in those months (even years) when nothing much seems to be happening, it can be terribly disheartening. Jesus: "I came to set the captives free". You: "Yeah, right. It feels like you've forgotten me!" Other people, they seem to be powering on. You, on the other hand, feel as though there's nothing really exciting ahead. Saul is on the road to Damascus, off to persecute some more Christians; he meets Jesus along the way. That's pretty exciting! But then, he loses his sight and for three days, he's completely blind. Now that doesn't sound like such a long time, unless you've been struck blind; in which case, it probably feels like an eternity. Adversity has a way of doing that, which is why when you feel as though you've been left on the shelf, it does seem like an eternity. Am I right? "Freedom – what's that?" you ask yourself, in this prison of inactivity. When we get to that point, there's something we need to be reminded of. It's what Paul says himself in his letter to the church in Galatia. Galatians 1:15-17: But when God, who had set me apart before I was born and called me through His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son to me so that I might proclaim Him among the Gentiles, I didn't confer with any human being, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were already apostles before me. But I went away at once to Arabia, and afterwards I returned to Damascus. In other words, God already had a plan for Paul, even before he was born. Along the way, people tried to kill the guy; they rioted against him; he was imprisoned; beaten; shipwrecked; bitten by a viper of all things, and eventually, he rotted out the remainder of his days in a Roman dungeon on death row. But that powerful encounter with Jesus, that incredible revelation of Christ Himself when he met Jesus on the road to Damascus, that changed everything. Because no matter how dire his circumstances became, he knew that God had a plan. So in the middle of those difficult circumstances, Paul had the freedom that Jesus promised. You know, God still has a plan: A plan for today; for tomorrow; next month; next year, and indeed, for the rest of your time on this earth. God hasn't forgotten you. He hasn't lost the plot. God has a plan and that fact gives you freedom, even if you've been locked away in a dungeon or forgotten on a shelf, and that's a promise that God wants you to take into your heart today. The only sort of hope the Bible talks about is certain hope, so may the Holy Spirit write that hope on your heart.   Overcoming the Old Ways Ok, the subject for today is circumcision. I know it's not exactly something you want to be thinking about, but stick with me. There's an important point to be made, and what we're really chatting about is freedom: Your freedom here, now, today. But first, let's head back to first-century Jerusalem. You see, there's a rocky transition underway for those who believe in Jesus from Judaism (the religion of their forefathers) to Christianity; from the life lived under a complex set of religious rules to a life of freedom in Christ. A lot of the things that seem pretty obvious to us today had to be nutted out back then; it wasn't easy. One of them was male circumcision, which to this point had been part of God's Law for His people. Let's take a look at how the apostle Paul puts it in Galatians 2:3-5: But even Titus, who was with me, was not compelled to be circumcised, though he was a Greek. But because of false believers secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy on the freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might enslave us. We did not submit to them even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might always remain with you. You see, there's a tussle here between the old traditionalists who didn't believe in this whole nonsense about grace through Jesus, and Paul to whom the gospel of grace (the fantastic news of God's unmerited favour towards us) had been revealed by Jesus Himself. Circumcision was just the flashpoint. The real debate was between the slavery of living under the set of rules, and the freedom that we have through our faith in Christ, and it's a struggle that continues to this day in the heart of many-a believer because grace is so radical; so counter-intuitive. We live in a 'dog-eat-dog' world, and there seems to be plenty of dog to go around, yet along comes Jesus and says in effect, "Look, it's not about following a bunch of rules. It's about experiencing My love and so that you can, I'm going to pay the price on a cross for all the things that you've done wrong in your life." The reason Paul takes this so seriously is that it strikes at the very heart of the gospel of grace; the truth. Besides, have you noticed? It's pretty much impossible to follow the rules anyway. We all fall short. That's why we need Jesus, so if you've been struggling under a bunch of rules, do yourself a favour. Ditch them. Go to Jesus instead. Start having a rich, dynamic relationship with Him, and your unbounded freedom will flow out of that relationship. Don't let rules enslave you. And you and I, we aren't the only ones that suffer from this problem. Take Peter, the apostle. We think of Peter as one of the New Testament's 'A'-list, yet he made quite a few mistakes along the way, not the least of which was political correctness. This age of rampant political correctness isn't something new in the twenty-first century. It turns out that there's nothing new under the sun. Now look. It's absolutely a good idea that we shouldn't deliberately go out there to say or do things that'll hurt others, but it's a very bad idea to take that to the ridiculous Nth degree to the point where we curtail our freedoms in order to appease those with an agenda, and that's exactly what was going on in the first century as Christianity was being birthed out of Judaism. There was a tussle between the two. There were difficult issues to work through. For instance, most Jews believed that the God of the Old Testament was for them and them alone. Many of the apostles stayed in Jerusalem for that very reason, but Paul was called to be an apostle to the Gentiles, to take the good news of salvation in Jesus to people whom the Jews referred to as dogs, so Peter is happy to dine with the Gentiles until some other legalistic old-school Jews show up, at which point he does the politically correct thing – retreating, only to eat with Jews again. Well, at this point, Paul pretty much has a pink fit. Galatians 2:11-13: But when Cephas” (that's Peter's other name) “came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face because he stood self-condemned. For until certain people came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles, but after they came, he drew back and kept himself separate for fear of the circumcision faction, and the other Jews joined him in this hypocrisy so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy To the extent that you believe in Jesus, you are free in Christ to live out your faith. Sure; in this age of political correctness, in this age of pluralism, you will be derided for it; you'll be laughed at for it; you'll even be persecuted for it, but let Peter's mistake be a lesson to us all. Let's not be hypocrites. Let's not compromise our freedom in Christ to appease the sinners of this world. Sure; the issues today are different, but the principle remains the same. People will disagree with you because you believe in Jesus. They just will. There's nothing new in any of that ... Live out your faith in Jesus anyhow. Don't let the fear of what others will think or say or do rob you of the freedom that you have in Christ. Don't let your life compromise the truth of the gospel of grace. Isn't it funny how our old ways keep coming back to haunt us? Peter spent three-and-a-half years with Jesus! He saw the miracles; he heard the sermons; he experienced the radically different way that the Son of God approached things. Jesus wasn't afraid of upsetting religious leaders. Jesus wasn't afraid of offending people, yet still Peter falls back into his old ways. No wonder Paul took him on! It's a good thing and as I said, it's a sobering lesson to you and me about the power of the old ways to rob us of the freedoms that Jesus came to give us. Jesus said that if He sets us free, then we are free indeed. Don't throw that freedom away so easily.

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: Higher-Order Forecasts, published by Ozzie Gooen on May 25, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Higher-order forecasting could be a useful concept for prediction markets and forecasting systems more broadly. The core idea is straightforward: Nth-order forecasts are forecasts about (N-1)th order forecasts. Examples Here are some examples: 0-Order Forecasting (i.e., the ground truth) Biden won the 2020 U.S. presidential election The US GDP in 2023 was $27 trillion 1st-Order Forecasting (i.e., regular forecasting) What is the chance that Trump will win the 2024 U.S. presidential election? What will be the GDP of the US in 2024? 2nd-Order Forecasting How much will the forecasts for US GDP in 2024 and 2025 be correlated over the next year? How many forecasts will the question "What will be the GDP of the US in 2024?" receive in total? If the question "What is the chance that a Republican will win the 2028 Presidential Election?" was posted to Manifold, with a subsidy of 100k Mana, what would the prediction be, after 1 month?" 3rd-Order Forecasting How much will the forecasts, [How much will the forecasts for US GDP in 2024 and 2025 be correlated over the next year?] and [How many forecasts will the question "What will be the GDP of the US in 2024?" receive in total?], be correlated, from now until 2024? How valuable were all the forecasts for the question, ['How many forecasts will the question "What will be the GDP of the US in 2024?" receive in total?'] As forecasting systems mature, higher-order forecasts could play a role analogous to financial derivatives in markets. Derivatives allow for more efficient pricing, risk transfer, and information aggregation by letting market participants express views on the relationships between assets. Similarly, higher-order forecasts could allow forecasters to express views on the relationships between predictions, leading to a more efficient and informative overall forecasting ecosystem. Benefits Some potential benefits of higher-order forecasting include: 1. Identify Overconfidence Improve the accuracy of forecasts by having participants directly predict and get rewarded for estimating overconfidence or poor calibration in other forecasts. "How overconfident is [forecast/forecaster] X" 2. Prioritize Questions Prioritize the most important and decision-relevant questions by forecasting the value of information from different predictions. "How valuable is the information from forecasting question X?" 3. Surface Relationships Surface key drivers and correlations between events by letting forecasters predict how different questions relate to each other. "How correlated will the forecasts for questions X and Y be over [time period]?" 4. Faster Information Aggregation Enable faster aggregation of information by allowing forecasts on future forecast values, which may update more frequently than the underlying events. "What will the forecast for question X be on [future date], conditional on [other forecasts or events]?" 5. Leverage Existing Infrastructure Leverage the existing infrastructure and resolution processes of prediction platforms, which are already designed to handle large numbers of forecasting questions. We've already seen some early examples of higher-order forecasts on platforms like Manifold Markets. For example, with the recent questions: Will there be a Manifold bot that makes profitable bets on random 1-month markets by December 2024? (Ṁ3,000 subsidy!) Manifold Top Traders Leaderboard Ranking Prediction (2024) If Manifold begins allowing real-money withdrawals, will its accuracy improve? Is Manifold's P(Doom) by 2050 currently between 10% and 90%?

AF - Visualizing neural network planning by Nevan Wichers

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: Visualizing neural network planning, published by Nevan Wichers on May 9, 2024 on The AI Alignment Forum. TLDR We develop a technique to try and detect if a NN is doing planning internally. We apply the decoder to the intermediate representations of the network to see if it's representing the states it's planning through internally. We successfully reveal intermediate states in a simple Game of Life model, but find no evidence of planning in an AlphaZero chess model. We think the idea won't work in its current state for real world NNs because they use higher-level, abstract representations for planning that our current technique cannot decode. Please comment if you have ideas that may work for detecting more abstract ways the NN could be planning. Idea and motivation To make safe ML, it's important to know if the network is performing mesa optimization, and if so, what optimization process it's using. In this post, I'll focus on a particular form of mesa optimization: internal planning. This involves the model searching through possible future states and selecting the ones that best satisfy an internal goal. If the network is doing internal planning, then it's important the goal it's planning for is aligned with human values. An interpretability technique which could identify what states it's searching through would be very useful for safety. If the NN is doing planning it might represent the states it's considering in that plan. For example, if predicting the next move in chess, it may represent possible moves it's considering in its hidden representations. We assume that NN is given the representation of the environment as input and that the first layer of the NN encodes the information into a hidden representation. Then the network has hidden layers and finally a decoder to compute the final output. The encoder and decoder are trained as an autoencoder, so the decoder can reconstruct the environment state from the encoder output. Language models are an example of this where the encoder is the embedding lookup. Our hypothesis is that the NN may use the same representation format for states it's considering in its plan as it does for the encoder's output. Our idea is to apply the decoder to the hidden representations at different layers to decode them. If our hypothesis is correct, this will recover the states it considers in its plan. This is similar to the Logit Lens for LLMs, but we're applying it here to investigate mesa-optimization. A potential pitfall is that the NN uses a slightly different representation for the states it considers during planning than for the encoder output. In this case, the decoder won't be able to reconstruct the environment state it's considering very well. To overcome this, we train the decoder to output realistic looking environment states given the hidden representations by training it like the generator in a GAN. Note that the decoder isn't trained on ground truth environment states, because we don't know which states the NN is considering in its plan. Game of Life proof of concept (code) We consider an NN trained to predict the number of living cells after the Nth time step of the Game of Life (GoL). We chose the GoL because it has simple rules, and the NN will probably have to predict the intermediate states to get the final cell count. This NN won't do planning, but it may represent the intermediate states of the GoL in its hidden states. We use an LSTM architecture with an encoder to encode the initial GoL state, and a "count cells NN" to output the number of living cells after the final LSTM output. Note that training the NN to predict the number of alive cells at the final state makes this more difficult for our method than training the network to predict the final state since it's less obvious that the network will predict t...

Then she lifted up her hands and held a body up to the camera. A cat--a campus stray, lovingly named Princess by the other University students. She grabbed the back of the kitten's neck.

Foundations of Amateur Radio For years I've been hosting a weekly net called F-troop. It's a one hour opportunity for new and returning amateurs to get together and share their questions, and sometimes answers, about anything and everything amateur radio, with side trips into astronomy, electronics, circuit boards, testing gear and whatever else takes our fancy on the day. The net runs for an hour every Saturday morning starting at midnight UTC, which for some is a time when they're fast asleep, though truth be told, several of our regulars are night owls. In VK6 where I am, midnight UTC is a more reasonable 8am, unless we have another referendum when we can decide if we want daylight saving, or not. So far we've had four of those, yes, really, in 1975, 1984, 1992, and 2009, and each time daylight saving or summer time was rejected. All I'm saying is that the chances are good that midnight UTC is going to be 8am in VK6 for a while yet. Anyway, that time of the morning affords me the luxury of getting out of bed at a sensible hour, having a shower, making a cup of coffee with my Significant Other, or SO, and ambling into my shack to get ready. It's a comfortable process, something I've done for over 12 years with very little in the way of variation with the exception of the 500th and 600th episodes which I hosted outdoors at a local radio club, complete with BBQ and many visitors. That and the Friday Night Technical Net with Reg VK6BQQ, but that's a story for another day. Last week a good friend, Glynn VK6PAW, asked me if I wanted to go out and have some fun, and having been pretty much cooped up for several years now, of course I said "yes". We're going to the viewing platform at the Perth International Airport, that's airport code YPPH, where I'll host the net in whatever way we figure out at the time. It's not an event, we haven't told anyone about it, and telling you now won't ruin the surprise for anyone, since this weekly rambling hits the airwaves after F-troop concludes. I knew there was a reason. Anyway, at this point you have every right to ask me, "Onno, why should I care?" Indulge me and let me see if I can explain. Most, if not all, of my amateur radio activities are planned. From time-to-time I might get in my car and drive to a nearby park and get on HF, but truth be told, I haven't done that for several years. I have regularly told you about contests I've done, often whilst operating portable, often with friends, but sometimes alone. I have activated all manner of things, climbed summits, played in parks, gone to lighthouses and other such places. Every, single, time, those activities were planned, often to within an inch of their life. What should I bring? Where am I going to set-up? What gear do I need? What spares are required? What logging tool is needed? Will I need food and water? You know, a typical 7p activity, Proper Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance. This time the plan consists of: "Do you want to go to the airport?" and "Sure!" Mind you, that's in the context of Glynn normally having several radios in his car and me not having a clue what to expect. The other day I actually had my first ever look at the location in Google Street View, only to discover that there's a shelter there, so hopefully we won't fry in the forecast 38 degrees Celsius, that's 100 degrees in Ray Bradbury's temperature scale, if you're wondering. Now, on the whole, this is a pretty low risk activity. Nobody is going to die if I don't manage to get the net going, though I do have Echolink on my phone, which reminds me, I should probably check if that still works. I'll put a pencil and a notepad in my pocket for logging and I'll bring a bottle or six of water and probably some coffee. Sorry, I can't help myself. In other words, it's entirely possible to get on air and make noise without having to go to the Nth degree of planning and still have fun. As it happens, fun is something that's been in short supply of late, so, that's also a welcome change. As an aside, in a completely unrelated and random observation, I recently installed a new font on my computer, called Hack. It's mono-spaced, sans-serif, intended for source code, and licensed under the MIT License. I'm using it right now and I'm in love. So secretly, between you and me, that's what goes for fun around here. Oh, in case you're wondering, no, I did not get paid to say that, the authors have no idea I exist, unless they're unexpectedly radio amateurs, I'm just a happy user. Also, if you're wondering about Echolink, no need to fret. I just tested and it just works straight out of the box. Gotta love that. Now, here's a question for you. When was the last time you spontaneously got on air to make noise? I'm Onno VK6FLAB

When you hear the words "health policy", what comes to mind? A dry, barren desert? Not for John Silver, a nurse who has dedicated decades of his life to studying it and believes it's anything but dry and lacking in substance. He was so passionate about understanding it that he left nursing to pursue a Ph.D. in comparative studies. He serves as President of the organization, Nurses Transforming Healthcare, whose mission is to transform healthcare into a model based on wellness and disease prevention, driven by nurses, which is affordable and accessible to all. John believes we as nurses need to remember our social roots as a profession in order to affect change. The goal is ambitious, yet gaining momentum every day. I have no doubt with our collective power, John and the masterminds behind NTH will radically change healthcare. I teased him about being a deep thinker, but honestly, a world without deep thinkers would just be boring. In the five-minute snippet: Vintage guys rule!

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: Does Circuit Analysis Interpretability Scale? Evidence from Multiple Choice Capabilities in Chinchilla, published by Neel Nanda on July 20, 2023 on LessWrong. Cross-posting a paper from the Google DeepMind mech interp team, by: Tom Lieberum, Matthew Rahtz, János Kramár, Neel Nanda, Geoffrey Irving, Rohin Shah, Vladimir Mikulik Informal TLDR We tried standard mech interp techniques (direct logit attribution, activation patching, and staring at attention patterns) on an algorithmic circuit in Chinchilla (70B) for converting the knowledge of a multiple choice question's answer into outputting the correct letter. These techniques basically continued to work, and nothing fundamentally broke at scale (though it was a massive infra pain!). We then tried to dig further into the semantics of the circuit - going beyond "these specific heads and layers matter and most don't" and trying to understand the learned algorithm, and which features were implemented This kind of tracked the feature "this is the nth item in the list" but was pretty messy. However, my personal guess is that this stuff is just pretty messy at all scales, and we can productively study how clean/messy this stuff is at smaller and more tractable scales. I now feel mildly more optimistic that focusing on mech interp work on small models is just fine, and extremely worth it for the much faster feedback loops. It also seems super nice to get better at automatically finding these circuits, since this was a many month manual slog! See Tom's and my Twitter summaries for more. Note that I (Neel) am cross-posting this on behalf of the team, and neither a main research contributor nor main advisor for the project. Key Figures An overview of the weird kinds of heads found, like the "attend to B if it is correct" head! The losses under different mutations of the letters - experiments to track down exactly which features were used. Eg replacing the labels with random letters or numbers preserves the "nth item in the list" feature while shuffling ABCD lets us track the "line labelled B" feature The queries and keys of a crucial correct letter head - it's so linearly separable! We can near loss-lessly compress it to just 3 dimensions and interpret just those three dimensions. See an interactive 3D plot here Abstract Circuit analysis is a promising technique for understanding the internal mechanisms of language models. However, existing analyses are done in small models far from the state of the art. To address this, we present a case study of circuit analysis in the 70B Chinchilla model, aiming to test the scalability of circuit analysis. In particular, we study multiple-choice question answering, and investigate Chinchilla's capability to identify the correct answer label given knowledge of the correct answer text. We find that the existing techniques of logit attribution, attention pattern visualization, and activation patching naturally scale to Chinchilla, allowing us to identify and categorize a small set of output nodes (attention heads and MLPs). We further study the correct letter category of attention heads aiming to understand the semantics of their features, with mixed results. For normal multiple-choice question answers, we significantly compress the query, key and value subspaces of the head without loss of performance when operating on the answer labels for multiple-choice questions, and we show that the query and key subspaces represent an Nth item in an enumeration feature to at least some extent. However, when we attempt to use this explanation to understand the heads' behaviour on a more general distribution including randomized answer labels, we find that it is only a partial explanation, suggesting there is more to learn about the operation of correct letter heads on multiple choice question answering. ...

The thought that success is up to you, is actually hurting you.I get it.You've been told to "take ownership" and I totally agree with that advice too.But taking it to the Nth degree, to where success is only up to you, is most likely not helping your future.I was having a conversation recently with someone who reminded me that this thought never served me when I used to think it too.Now I'm not saying that everyone is going to feel this same way, but after having thousands of coaching calls where this topic comes up, I've found the majority of time it actually gets you off track even though it might feel great when you start to say it.Think about it like this... If it's up to you, it's so easy to convince yourself to go at it alone.And if you're alone, you're stuck doing what you've always done.Which means you'll keep getting what you've always gotten.Before you know it, your belief in yourself drops off the face of the planet...

In a touching, insightful segment, Nate takes us through his experience working with pioneering American reggae band John Brown's Body, and expounds on the legacy of his dear friend, JBB bassist, the late Scott Palmer.  Naturally, we dig DEEP on all things The Nth Power, past, present and future. Ruminations on his bandmates as family, the core trio perservering through adversity, the inherent spirituality in their music. Plus reflections on collaborating with Weedie Braimah, Nigel Hall, Rob Marscher, and the friendship, mentorship, kindness and unbelievable talent of the late, great Kofi Burbridge.
