Abstract
Abstract. Weber argued that bureaucrats serve whoever holds power even in the case of revolution or enemy occupation because they are more concerned with their jobs, salaries and pensions than with political ideas. His hypothesis has yet to be satisfactorily tested, however, and any such project would have to include all states that emerged from revolutions. As a contribution towards such an examination this paper reviews state building in nationalist Ireland and Bolshevik Russia to determine whether the behaviour of old-regime administrators in those countries proves or disproves Weber's claim. Résumé. Weber avançait que les bureaucrates servent quiconque est au pouvoir, même en cas de révolution ou d'occupation ennemie, parce qu'ils se soucient davantage de leurs emplois, de leurs salaires et de leurs pensions que d'idées politiques. Son hypothèse n'a cependant jamais été testée de manière satisfaisante et tout projet de ce genre devrait nécessairement inclure tous les États qui sont issus de révolutions. En guise de contribution à un tel examen, cet article examine la création de l'État dans l'Irlande nationaliste et la Russie bolchévique pour déterminer si le comportement des fonctionnaires de l'ancien régime de ces pays confirme ou réfute l'allégation de Weber.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
