This comic refers to proofs without words, which rely on images or other geometric tools to visually demonstrate a concept without further explanation. The comic gives an example of a proof without any content at all, which proves its own existence. The empty box could be construed as the rectangle denoting what has been proved ('QED'), and since it is part of the diagram, it avoids being content. However, it claims to be a convincing proof, in which it might fall a bit short. Note that this conjecture cannot be generalized and the proof only proves this special case: the vast majority of all other conjectures cannot be proven without content.[​proof needed] This proof requires the conjecture to be stated, which could be construed as content.

yeah, this is why I always recommend still having an offline backup on Android (not supported on iOS sadly) just for peace of mind, but glad it worked out!

yeah even messages have been delayed so I suspect cloud restore is a no-go until service is fully restored

If you're not doing a fully-offline transfer and recovery, I would imagine that would cause a failure

Signal is currently having an outage, so that might be why

In addition to Signal, Fastmail seems to have been having issues all morning, so I'm more inclined to guess BGP than I would if it were just Signal.

I'm not sure I follow - what would have prevented this? Short of a cultural sense of skepticism towards AI, which is unfortunately currently not happening

amazing that Paterson coronated Gillibrand 17 years ago out of sheer spite, and we're still stuck with this woman who is doing literally nothing for her constituents, because NY is not a functioning democracy

Even more embarrassed by Columbia now.

Bill DeBlasio in 2014:

sidenote: my Jewish friends complain a lot about this, because "dual loyalty" is a huge antisemitic trope, and it makes it hard to fight against it when people like Schumer come out and literally say things like "my job as a US Senator is to fight unconditionally for Israel" bsky.app/profile/dipl...

Schumer's phone lines are open. Now is a great time to call him and tell him that his job as Senate Minority Leader is to represent his constituents, not to represent Israel.

If Schumer wants this to be his job, he should resign as senator and go work as a lobbyist for AIPAC

Another thing Chuck Schumer fights for that has jack shit to do with his job of *representing our community*; There are people in our goddamn city who are going hungry! Our neighbors are afraid, and alone! They live in *this country*!

If Schumer wants this to be his job, he should resign as senator and go work as a lobbyist for AIPAC

what's weird about this is that ad networks were doing this 15+ years ago, and people widely understood it, but now people ascribe the same subjective experience to a degree of surveillance which would be both impractical and unnecessary

Zone rouge - Wikipedia

World War 1 may have ended over a century ago, but parts of France not far from Paris are *still* inaccessible today because of the amount of destruction caused by the war.

Sometimes you're just taking a stroll through the zone rouge, and you slip and fall, and you end up with a bomb in your butt. These sorts of things happen in France!

in Nick's defense, it's hard to write a convincing story using only your left hand

“bari weiss’s wife in the epstein files” is simply too perfect

The two were also connected on LinkedIn — many mentions of Ariely in the Epstein files were emails prompting Epstein to accept Ariely’s invitation to connect.

how pathetic is it to be in the Epstein Files for your MANY, REPEATED emails attempting to connect with him on LinkedIn lmfal

I wonder if the New York Times will go after any of the prominent academics in the Epstein files for being rapists as hard as they went after Claudine Gay for being kind of sloppy with citations in her graduate thesis.

If not, why not?

you were a real one, my friend. I'm glad you're no longer suffering, but man if we still have to be dealing with nazis and pedophiles in 2026, I sure wish we still had you fighting alongside us. 💔

the feeling when Stuff Happens™ and you feel the immediate urge to text a specific person to talk about it, before you remember they died years ago 😭

is this real? it reads like a bit
