@dwidmaier Engineering works best where things are static/ stable on their own, and are only dynamic after the engineering is applied, and usually where the physics at only one or two scales matter Biology is already dynamic, and often at multiple scales

@mhmck "You break it, you own it"

Americans who think Trump has any plan to end his war on Iran should recall Trump promised to end Russia's war on Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office. Other people have always cleaned up Trump's messes. Trump will be hysterical with rage when that doesn't happen this time.

@sentdefender First air-to-air loss of an F-15, then two more at the same time?

A Kuwaiti F/A-18 Hornet was the cause of the accidental shootdown of 3 F-15E Strike Eagles in a “friendly fire” incident over the country on Sunday, not a Kuwaiti “Patriot” Surface-to-Air Missile Battery like had initially been believed, three people familiar with initial reports of the incident told the Wall Street Journal. One F/A-18 launched three missiles against the F-15s, according to a U.S. official, with all three aircraft being hit and going down, but their pilots ejecting safely. The incident occurred soon after multiple Iranian drones had penetrated Kuwaiti air defenses, one striking a commercial port and killing six American servicemembers, with Kuwaiti officials on edge when their radars detected the jets flying in and fired on them.

@FaytuksNetwork Europeans don't work on weekends... etc etc

House of Representatives to receive Trump admin briefing on Iran Tuesday afternoon.

@nexta_tv The guys on the left didn't want to pay $10 to get verified?

🧐Find 10 differences! The photo shows casualties among the command staff in the US-Iran conflict

@NiohBerg And that the guy was a registered Democrat at the time

Imagine taking a time machine back to 2001 and telling these guys that the Apprentice host will be the one to bomb Iran.

@RAF_Luton That's not a concorde.

In Pakistan’s Karachi, protesters supporting the killed Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, broke through security barriers and advanced toward the U.S. Consulate.

@AnthropicAI With the trust users must put in AI tools to gain their full potential benefits, there is nothing more important for providers like yourselves than ironclad, immutable, and transparent values. Thank you!

A statement on the comments from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. anthropic.com/news/statement…

@ChristosArgyrop So 0.4W for the gpu versus 140w for a human? (But AI model is not using only 1 gpu) Keep in mind that watts are a rate of energy use, whereas Joules, kW×hr, kcal are cumulative energy use. (Flaw in your original post is the watts/hour - watts are already a time-rate unit)

Edit because I didn't fact check the AI Avg power consumption of a human is around 140W x.com/i/status/20252…

Let's fact check Sammie here. 25 years x 365 days = 9,125 days Caloric needs vary by age; let's assume 2500 on average ~ 23M calories ~ 27 kilowatt-hours to raise a human. A gaming GPU is about 0.4 watts/hr. So playing games for 3 days straight consumes more energy than raising a human

@panagis21 I heard coffee is protective for dementia

Me: Let’s talk about any risk factors. Do you smoke? Patient: not much. Just one or two with my coffee. Me: oh, ok. So one to two cigarettes a day? Patient: Me: Wife: Doc, he drinks 5 to 6 coffees a day 😡

@Rainmaker1973 Annually? I think you mean daily.

Redheads Festival, held annually in Ireland and the Netherlands.

@wolfejosh No selfies 😂🙈 The

INSANE! I installed Clawdbot gave it full access and it one shot a control interface so i can just grunt or gesture AND it understands my intentions -saved me probably 10,000 hours -transferred all the money from one of my accounts as it made a game called 'Money Hide & Seek' -turned my thermostat down to match the outside NYC environment of 2 degrees F -used Grok to generate nude selfies and post them as replies to any message on the internet using keyword "the"

@Rainmaker1973 Should be mandatory, annually, for all drivers

Bus drivers learned the hard way what close passing feels like

@WarMonitor3 One of the rare cases when "troop" being singular or pleural is ambiguous

Donald Trump told Keir Starmer he may have been misinformed about the rationale behind recent European troop deployments to Greenland. Starmer stressed deployments are aimed at addressing U.S. security concerns, not countering Washington

@mhmck Canada+Minnesota would be unbeatable at 🏒

If Minnesota was a Canadian province it would gain universal health care and lose masked paramilitaries roaming the streets. Something to consider …

@sentdefender Basically the last of the neocons Hung around long enough to see it come full-circle..

Republican Senator John N. Kennedy describes Lindsey Graham in his recent best-selling book, “If you want to stump Lindsey, just ask him to name a country he wouldn’t bomb,” Mr. Kennedy writes, adding later that the Senator from South Carolina is also unpredictable. “Invite him to dinner, and you don’t know if he’ll sit down for an intelligent conversation or get drunk and vomit in the fish tank. But that’s why I like him.”

RIP @ScottAdamsSays I ran a summer course for high school students wanting to be engineers, and started it with this clip. Timeless and iconic! youtu.be/g8vHhgh6oM0?si…

@DrSamuelBHume Another modern miracle in our lifetime

@WarMonitor3 Armies that fully support their countries leadership do not feel compelled to declare that

The Iranian army has declared full support for the country’s leadership.

@bayraktar_1love Reminds somewhat of the recent Turkish C-130 fuselage failure?
