Hallo aus Deutschland. Ich bleibe zu Hause.


@JacobAShell I suppose it's about borrowing from one integer to get the other to 10. 8+9+(2-2) = (8+2)+(9-2) = 10 + 7 = 17 This is what we do ex-memorization to add 8+9 in our head, really.


I don’t understand what’s happening. This disorder has previously caused him to say offensive things at formal events, so why is he still going? Why is it the role of the world to normalize his outbursts rather than it being his responsibility to stay home? He wasn’t at Kroger for goodness sake.


@alexolegimas This point- it is extremely hard for humans to verify, but it could well be wrong- is something that will be everywhere in AI-assisted science soon. Needs urgent attention!


Holy shit, the British Monarchy is really going to destroy itself over the discredited claims of a dead serial fabulist






I think infertile people should be able to have kids



most women I know who elected surrogacy say behind closed doors that, from a feminist pov, it's unfair they have to ruin their bodies for a baby and they have enough money to pay for it so why not farm it out publicly they all claim to have some debilitating illness lol


NEW: Harvard President Alan Garber said the University “went wrong” by allowing faculty activism in the classroom, arguing professors’ political views have chilled free speech and debate on campus. @EliseSpenner and @HugoChiassonn report. thecrimson.com/article/2026/1…


There are about 28 known detransitioner civil suits. The first to go to trial will start next week in New York State; I will be covering that trial. The second to go to trial will start in a couple of weeks, in Portland, Ore. Here is a spreadsheet I made of all the trials. The ages at which people were treated range from about 12 to 30 years old. Perhaps half of them concern minors at the start of treatment or surgery, the other young adults. There are probably a few other suits that remain under the radar. And new ones will surely be filed. If there are early victories, this could lead to a deluge of suits. Right now, most attorneys are playing it safe and waiting to see if this is a profitable venture. A lot of the cases have run into statute of limitation barriers, but most of those cases will go to an appeal. The suits have all been filed since August 2022.



Let me frame this more constructively, from my position as a company founder who has sat on both sides of the VC table many times over the past decade. Your only moat is moving faster than the other-guy. If mathematicians want to solve their childhood math problem dreams -- again in good faith -- I really suggest dropping some of the counterproductive zealousy, making friends with some AI researchers at the bleeding edge of automated theorem proving + formal verification, and get solving them ASAP. There won't be any Millennium Prize problems open by EoY 2026. Even if you (and you do) assume I don't solve any myself. THAT I'd bet a lot of money on.


🚨 BREAKING: It's been confirmed that a HOMELESS MAN blew the Brown University shooting case "wide open" through a Reddit post, named John He called the tip line and flagged his OWN Reddit post, and was seen on video walking very close to the shooter The man might get the $50K reward, and is a former Brown University student He FOLLOWED the gunman, and asked why the gunman was circling the block. He basically tracked the shooter all by himself, and got the vehicle information.


@christopherrufo I've said it before and I'll say it again, paisano -- one of the reasons *why* it's impossible to talk openly and honestly about this stuff is that guys like you want to use this as a pretext to purge academia of minorities and women writ large, and I'm not in favor of that!


The left wrote about this topic a lot until the pandemic, spent early Biden 100% preoccuped with domestic--trying to meme Biden into being second coming of FDR--and only diverted attention to foreign pol for Gaza.


@JacobAShell Yes. They just want to keep pushing, in fact, and our position of permanent inferiority means that we have very little institutional weight against them.



@CentipedeMouse I think he'll back off from "open border New York" bc unlike an Obama-style center-left progressive he's not going to outsource authority to random NGOs. He'll realize "open borders" is bad for his authority.
