@PhilosophyOfPhy Statistics combined with nets.

One of the mathematical engines behind Google, AI, and predictive text began with a Russian mathematician counting vowels in Pushkin. Andrey Markov founded what became Markov-chain theory by applying probability to poetry. American Scientist describes the first links of the Markov chain as coming from Markov’s analysis of literary text, and the standard historical account says he studied the sequence of vowels and consonants in Pushkin’s Eugene Onegin to show that probability could handle dependent events, not just independent coin-flip-style randomness. A basic probability problem asks, “What is the chance of the next event?” Markov’s upgrade asks, “What is the chance of the next event given what just happened?” In language, the next letter is not random in isolation. After a consonant, a vowel may become more likely. That tiny idea grows into weather models, queueing theory, speech recognition, page ranking, biology, finance, and machine learning.

@VanHoose2024 Lock-key co-mey?

Comey: Trump Is Not OK, He Seems ‘Nuts’ PLEASE LOCK COMEY UP breitbart.com/clips/2026/05/…

Trump is not OK.... but he is in China striking deals.

Comey: Trump Is Not OK, He Seems ‘Nuts’ Comey is going to be Prosecuted. Notice he stays away from Fox News and will not go on and answer any questions. He only runs to Liberal Media that covers for him. @Comey

What Democrats think fascism means: Republicans What fascism actually means: a far-left, authoritarian ideology focused on creating a highly centralized, dictatorial state that subordinates to the state all aspects of society—economy, culture, media, education, and private life

True

@AstronomyVibes Yer onto something. From simplicity to complexity there may be a happy medium of living outcome with more difficulty and less general peace& happiness in both directions of time’s arrow.

🚨 Why Are Geniuses Like Einstein So Rare Today? Imagine this: today there are 8 billion people on Earth — four times more than a century ago. By chance alone, we should have more Einsteins than ever. Yet, where are the discoveries that change everything? Physics used to be full of revolutions: Special Relativity, Quantum Mechanics… today? Mostly confirmations of what we already know. It’s not because there are no mysteries left. We still don’t know what 95% of the Universe is made of. We don’t know what came before the Big Bang, or what’s inside a black hole. Mind-blowing puzzles are everywhere. 🤔 So why are breakthroughs so rare? Part of the reason may be psychological. As the scientific community grows, groupthink grows too. Most scientists stick to safe, accepted ideas because stepping outside the norm can hurt careers. Funding, fame, and reputation often reward following the herd, not breaking it. 💡The solution? Reward risk-takers. Small teams, wild ideas, and thinking differently should get prestige and funding, not just the herd-followers. And the craziest thought? Over 13.8 billion years, how many Einstein-level minds might have lived on other planets — and what could they know that we don’t even dream of? The next universe-shaking discovery might not come from Earth… yet. 🌌

When 85-year-old widow Nana Abernathy from North Carolina called Brittain’s Tree and Crane Service asking for free firewood to stay warm through the winter, she never expected what came next. The company’s owner, Paul Brittain, didn’t just deliver the wood. He went far beyond her request — repairing her car, fixing her damaged roof, and restoring her broken heating and air conditioning system, all at no cost. Not stopping there, Brittain organized a Christmas fundraiser that raised over $20,000 to support Nana and ensure she would be cared for in the years ahead. The story quickly spread online, touching hearts across the country and reminding everyone of the power of genuine kindness and compassion. Paul Brittain’s extraordinary generosity shows how one person’s actions can make a profound difference in someone’s life.

@Buraq515 Bags of what? That looks like fertile planting medium. Perhaps Black Cow manure may be a bit much but yellow clay other hard rock may suffer to grow into spud-hood 🥔

We grew potatoes in simple plastic bags along the fence… and the results were unbelievable 🥔🌿 No raised beds. No digging. No complicated setup. Just place the bags down, cut a small hole, plant a potato, and let nature do the rest. Harvest day turned out better than we ever expected! Could gardening really get any easier? Have you tried growing food like this before?🔥🏡💦 #growyourown #potatogarden #baggardening #diygarden #potatoharvest

@CharlesMullins2 Reality attaches itself with meaning thru Darwinian messaging. A bird’s beak grows longer, perhaps eating habits force a trend such as leaving life in a tree to forage on a more fertile fruitful outcome on a savanna. Or perhaps lemmings leap off a cliff. When possibility awaits.

🚨 QUANTUM REALITY UPDATE Quantum decoherence may be the reason reality feels solid. At the quantum level, particles can exist in multiple possible states at once… waves of probability overlapping together. But the moment a quantum system interacts with its environment, those possibilities begin to fade. Not because reality “chooses”… but because the universe becomes entangled with itself. And out of that chaos… classical reality emerges. The chair beneath you. The phone in your hand. The feeling of “now.” All of it may be the visible surface of something far stranger underneath. A hidden quantum ocean we never directly see. Maybe reality isn’t fundamentally solid at all. Maybe stability is just what surviving coherence looks like. Follow for more quantum physics and reality updates before they hit mainstream.

@Live_Real18 @prinkasusa Now that nature allowing all-play. From music to art to imaginative&curious reasonings nature focus is life surviving as a whole while in part a one living particle in ever changing mixture. I-Thou always newly created in time, relentlessly.

@prinkasusa Almost lost a family member to suicide because of a Hysterectomy and NO hormones offered. Medical malpractice. All while dudes can wear a dress and get all the hormones they want to cosplay woman. 👿

If a man's testosterone dropped to menopausal levels overnight...He'd be hospitalized. But when a woman loses her progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone, has a sluggish thyroid & insulin resistance? She's told to go vegan, do more cardio & take magnesium. Meanwhile, her metabolism tanks, joints ache, and brain fog sets in. This isn't wellness. It's medical gaslighting.

If that's how it works in the third world, where you're from, then yea your medical system is fucked up. But in up to date medical systems like in America, HRT is the first line treatment for menopause and its symptoms, and has been for decades except for a few years in the 2000s when it was derailed by feminists worried about breast cancer and shit, and it was so bad that the people who ran the trials even apologized

@prinkasusa Why is nature “herself” so god awful insouciant as to be as playful as an otter or crow yet as brutal as a viper or honey badger 🦡. Models, by type follow curved momentum forward in a creation of multiple energy & cease&desist signals from the first neuron…to now-progress.

@_HistoryNerd And still the undercurrent of cultural pull, a force or field of commonality that most remote experience will be drawn inward to urban clusters. Ergo, winning strategies likely will ferry between rural/urban private/public settings. Culture rules from idea to implementation.

Arthur C. Clarke predicting the future of computing in 1974, with his young son Jonathan beside him: "I brought along my son Jonathan who in the year 2001 will be the same age as I am now. Maybe he will be better adjusted to this kind of world that you're trying to portray." Clarke then paints a picture of what daily life will look like when Jonathan grows up: "The big difference when he grows up is that he will have in his own house not a computer as big as this, but at least a console through which he can talk to his friendly local computer and get all the information he needs for his everyday life: his bank statements, his theater reservations, all the information you need in the course of living in a complex modern society." He describes the setup with remarkable precision: "This will be in a compact form in his own house. He'll have a television screen like these here and a keyboard, and he'll talk to the computer, get information from it, and he'll take it as much for granted as we take the telephone." But the interviewer raises a concern that still resonates today: "I wonder though, what sort of a life would it be like in social terms? I mean, if our whole life is built around the computer, that we become a computer-dependent society and computer-independent individuals in some ways?" Clarke acknowledges the tension but sees a profound upside, one that anticipates remote work decades before it became reality: "They'll also enrich our society because it'll make it possible for us to live really anywhere we like. Any businessman executive could live almost anywhere on Earth and still do his business through a device like this." He closes with a vision that has quietly come true for millions: "This is a wonderful thing. It means we won't have to be stuck in cities. We'd be better off living out in the country or wherever we please and still carry on complete interaction with human beings as well as with other computers." Half a century later, Clarke's prediction reads less like science fiction and more like a description of an ordinary Tuesday. Banking, bookings, information at our fingertips, working from anywhere, all taken as much for granted as the telephone, exactly as he said.

Elon Musk has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for protecting Free Speech. Simple poll. Please be honest! As of today, how much do you still trust this man? A. 100 % B. 75% C. 50% D. 25% E. 0%

Utopia is not the standard. Reality is. Every civilisation has sins if you judge it by today’s moral standards. You can build an entire career doing nothing but listing them. That is easy. The harder question and the only one that matters is this: compared to actual, existing alternatives, who has done better? I am not claiming the West is perfect. It is not. No society is. But if you are honest about measurable progress on rights, equality, and self-correction, it is still ahead of every other major system in the world today. So stop asking "is it perfect?" That is a childish question. Ask: "compared to what?"

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music... I get most joy in life out of music. - A. Einstein
