Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.

Destiny finds out Hasan and the Cuban government were in contact through a middle man 11+ months ago “Somebody clean up my US politics, this mofo is getting help from the gov of China & Cuba to go do propaganda trips..nobody cares about this? Nobody on the left media, none of these g*y ppl or the thirstiest woman? sorry I didn’t read the Vanity Fair article that was talking about his big biceps, maybe they did have some critical reporting in there? Nobody gaf?” “Did he promote the ppl organizing this..you’d think he would he try to get his audience to donate or something for the mission”

If you don't like slop you're just blind If you don't like slop you just hate AI If you don't like slop you're a luddite If you don't like slop you don't want games to improve No amount of gaslighting is going to change the slop into a gourmet burger

It’s not 🍇, it’s rape. It’s not 🌽 it’s pornography. I’m so fucking tired of your shitty Tiktoktisation of incredibly serious, adult issues. There is no reason to use algorithm get arounds here. It’s not funny, it’s not cute, and it trivialises serious and deadly issues.

OK so she is just lying, and destiny's projection is correct. And this is based on destiny's 0 days lived as a girl gamer, but superior grasp of the subject even though he has 0 lived experience and cited 0 references? Do you see how retarded Destiny is? He argues this way all the time, that's why he gets smoked most debates.

This has to be ironic ragebait or something. Gaming for women 10-15 years ago online was literally impossible without a slew of disgusting comments nonstop. Gamergate was literally 10 years ago lmao

Happy Pi Day! In a certain sense, π is not a constant, but a variable. Using our usual Euclidean distance, it is 3.14159… but applying other L^p norms on ℝ², half the unit circle's perimeter will give other values. For instance, at p=1 (taxicab geometry), “π” = 2√2. At p ≈ 2.2, it's 3.20. Anyway, the video I was hoping to have out this day will be out closer to the 20th. Some call it “missing your deadline”, but I prefer to think of it as giving the L_{2.2} norm a little love.

I'm not sure tbh, it's pretty disappointing that @WIRED would publish something of such low quality, especially when there are so many strong claims made in the article that are entirely unsubstantiated, but maybe they have a slant that I'm just not aware of since I don't read too many articles from them.
Gerard Ciepielewski@Gravtum

What’s the process for reaching out to Wired to request a retraction? I’m familiar with their work, and I don’t think Lorenz’s article represents it well. My impression is that many people there would be willing to consider corrections if a strong case is made. There’s enough information available that, if I had written that article, I would have issued some sort of correction/clear explanation.

Brendan Carr’s authoritarian warning — that networks risk their broadcasting licenses for Iran war reporting that the government doesn’t like — is outrageous. When the government demands the press become a state mouthpiece under the threat of punishment, something has gone very wrong. In 2019, Carr said: “Should the government censor speech it doesn’t like? Of course not. The FCC does not have a roving mandate to police speech in the name of the ‘public interest.’” But today, Carr cites the “public interest” to blatantly threaten news outlets because the president doesn’t like their reporting. Again and again, Carr’s tenure as FCC chairman has been marked by his shameless willingness to bully and threaten our free press. But even by Carr’s standards, today’s hypocrisy is shocking — and dangerous. The American people demand uncensored news about the men and women serving in our armed forces. Our right to a free press is one of the core American freedoms those in uniform have sworn to support and defend. It is long past time for our government officials to remember their own oaths to uphold the Constitution — starting with the First Amendment.

Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not. And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters. The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves. It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news. When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen. Time for change!

The graph aims to show the rate of speaking. To approximate this, the y-axis shows the words spoken over a moving 10-minute time window. Mathematically, point (t, y) is on the graph if & only if y words were spoken between the times t and t + 10 min.

@TheAhmadOsman @lauriewired I've seen Laurie's videos about compilers and assembly. Her work is genuinely insightful. You ignore all of that and assume her entire online following is due to her looks. We're not gonna have role models for women in STEM if you attack all of them in this gross way

Congrats. You managed to turn a misogynistic post into …an advertisement for NVIDIA? I’m sure they appreciate it. Loving the (literal hundreds) of messages calling me slurs.
