Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.
"If all of Japan is contaminated, then Fukushima will appear to have recovered because it looks just like the rest of the country.”
That is a hell of a statement.

#Abla’s cooling off after an unsuccessful hunt in the creek
“During a keynote session at the HIMSS conference in Las Vegas, CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz said new tools like AI can radically improve the delivery of care from rural communities to large cities, but that ‘our biggest — and your biggest — challenge is nihilism.’”
Yesterday I asked Anthropic about their plans for data centres in 🇦🇺 & the impact on water and electricity demand.
We hear a lot about the potential of AI & data centres, but not much about the massive risks & need for safeguards against the misuse of AI & data centres guzzling our precious water.
I would strongly back the concept of only humans being able to fire weapons.
We need to carry the weight of that decision, ourselves.
No number before 1,000 contains the letter A.
Abandoning pets is just extremely on brand for people who move to Dubai and brag about avoiding tax.
We should be taxing the fuckers into the ground.
War profiteering used to be a bad thing…

JUST NOW: M-flares return to the Earth-facing disk! An un-numbered active region rotating into view just fired off an M2.4 flare and CME. This region is a NEW region on the Sun's southeastern limb. The flare was occulted, so the actual magnitude may have been larger.
I love when people ask me “What is -40 F in C?” and the correct (yet slightly cheeky) answer is “Yes.”
If you didn’t know, Fahrenheit and Celsius meet at -40. Right now outside my apartment, it’s -40!

Woah! Stunning prominence lifting off the Sun’s northern limb. Spectacular eruption. No impacts to Earth anticipated.
Oof. I just read your post in the most uncharitable, pedantic way possible, and I gotta tell ya: it's not looking good for you.
If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

Fun reminder that Jared Kushner's dad is a convicted felon who along with his other crimes hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law and record it when he learned the brother-in-law was cooperating with authorities, and Trump not only pardoned him but made him ambassador to France.

Subject: there is a simpler explanation about women and intelligence
intelligence comes about in part from real focus (goal-directed
(this is why you have the absent minded professor caricature)
it is a rare woman who is not first and foremost focussed on what
thinking and feeling about her
hard to be brilliant if you are worrying if you look fat or why
hates you or why you dont own a kelly bag

Relevant to today's conversation about AI's inherent sexism, here's an email from cognitive psychologist and early AI theorist Roger Schank, arguing to Epstein that women can't be truly intelligent, because they care too much about what other people think.

Kristi Noem attempting to fire a pilot mid air for refusing to turn the plane around to get her blankie, and the pilot explaining if he’s fired, he’ll be landing immediately regardless of location - and suddenly being instantaneously reinstated - is just such a batshit Trump regime anecdote
