Europe needs its own playbook to counter hybrid attacks. An Emergency Security Protocol. When triggered by one Member State, all Member States would coordinate a European response. We will also set out our ideas to make a European Security Council a reality. With partners like Ukraine, UK, Norway, Canada and others involved. Europe Related

How do you feel when you wake up and before bed and how easily do you fall asleep? The time in bed in the morning and at night tells you all you need to know. It's not a purely intellectual reasoning. It's not a pro and con list. It's not a spreadsheet. It’s not a Venn diagram. It's like, how do you feel? And are you even aware of how you're feeling? How much energy have you spent blocking out feeling, because you don't want to feel certain things? To borrow from Tara Brach, she said to me once, “There was a wise old sage who said, ‘There's really only one question worth considering and that… energy Related

Now we know: The popular Ox Alpha LLM was GLM-5.3-Flash... Compared to GLM-5.2, this new GLM-5.3-Flash model uses: - a Kimi Linear-style 3:1 (super*) hybrid attention pattern with 34 Kimi Delta Attention layers (KDA) and 11 Multi-heat Latent Attention (MLA) / DeepSeek Sparse Attention (DSA) layers; - a scaled-down GLM-5.2-style sparse MoE backbone, going from 744B-A40B to 320B-A18B; - a DeepSeek V4-style mHC residual path with four parallel streams; - plus a native vision encoder (not shown). * "Super hybrid" because both KDA and MLA/DSA are "efficient" components. E.g., Kimi only uses KDA +… Quoting @Zai_org Introducing GLM-5.3-Flash - Leading capabilities at a highly competitive price - Natively multimodal with a 1M-token context window - A 320B-A18B model released under the MIT License - Previously previewed as Ox Alpha, running entirely on Chinese AI chips Blog: https://t.co/tzOmB7gdZP Available now… LLMs Related

Whoa, Meta released a new open-weight LLM yesterday, something that hasn't happened since the good old Llama days. Their Meta Muse Glimmer model is a 30B multimodal reasoning model with a Gemma-like architecture design. (“Glimmer” is probably a wordplay on “Spark,” the more likely capable model from which Glimmer was distilled. Muse Spark is only available through Meta’s Model API, though.) Architecture-wise, here are some of the main points: 1. "Only" a 131k context window, compared to Qwen3.6 and Gemma 4, which support 2x that natively; it's reasonable, but maybe on the shorter end in the a… LLMs Related

Because why on earth there would be two candidates, one of whom has cognitive problems and the other of whom has judgment problems? These are the two biggest issues with the nuclear launch, judgment and cognition. And so where’s the young-ish, thoughtful, forward looking, wise, dedicated civil servant running for president? I know that sounds fantastical, but I wish it weren’t.

So you don’t have wise decision makers. Long gone are the days where we had presidents who had advisors on both sides of the aisle. That’s really important, because you want to have differing opinions. But as things become more viperous, both here in the United States and in nuclear armed nations, all bets are off at whether your advisors are going to give you good advice.

This book surveys theories of creativity, contrasting four competing explanations: expertise, genius, society, and chance, in offering a model for how creativity works. Simonton's work provides a nice hybrid between the purely anecdotal work of biographers and the data-driven work of experimental scientists.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
