Math professor. Crypto skeptic. I wrote the textbook about the game theory of Bitcoin. Bluesky is the worse social media space, except of course, all the other ones

If you hang out with people who talk about speculative attacks on the US dollar, this makes perfect sense. He's trying to set off a self-fulfilling run to the 8T marketcap

Bitcoin blockchain is now against that poor TAMU girl's religion and is in VIOLATION OF THE LAW. I'm calling on President Trump to shut it down.

Texas Professor Fired After Accusations of Teaching โ€˜Gender Ideologyโ€™

This whole situation at TAMU is brain-bludgeoningly painful. The person who should be fired is the admissions officer who admitted a student who believes that the literal act of becoming aware that some people identify as non-binary is "against their religion"

Many of us were very vocal (I said this directly to the CAS Dean) that this line about 'tenure doesn't mean you can't get laid off' was not working

I'm glad they listened

Big picture, this is a W for humanities and the concept of academic tenure.

Hopefully, it sets a bit of a precedent in the case that other universities try to chip away at tenure.

Looks like the administration may have backed down on closing departments and laying off tenured faculty? We just got an email from the university president saying this:

The worldโ€™s greatest mathematician avoided politics. Then Trump cut science funding. Terence Tao, a renowned mathematician at UCLA, faced funding challenges after the Trump administration froze federal research funds.

We need people who aren't necessarily Democrats to explain this. Democratic politicians are not exactly flush with credibility. Like all the other messaging it's not gonna work through 15 seconds soundbites, we need people to go on Joe Rogan, or just talk to their neighbors, more casual stuff

I think he's wrong about the economy teetering in March but not now part of it, the economy is currently on the verge of something crazy, could be a massive correction coming in. We really want Trump to own that.
