"Chris Rabb is an accomplished, five-term state Senator who has delivered real results for northwest Philadelphia" says the DNC in a statement congratulating him on his primary victory. Welp!



kind of awesome that this card has text explaining elementary level arithmetic maths just in case you need it


Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids. An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better. This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

TX-35 Democratic candidate Maureen Galindo says she will convert ICE detention center in Karnes County into an internment camp for "American Zionists." "It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists," she added.





Most papers on the arXiv have errors in them. More than we want to admit have fatal errors. That's how science works. Penalizing one type of error, while ignoring all the other types of errors seems ... bizarre.



Here’s the question for @AbdulElSayed: if you were a senator and a bill to enact free primary care for all plus an aggressive public option (like the American Health Gateway @SearchlightInst proposed) came to the floor, would you vote for it? To his enormous credit, Bernie Sanders voted for the ACA. He has also been a driving force behind policies like capping the price of insulin, getting Medicare to cover hearing aids, and empowering the government to negotiate lower drug prices for seniors. These are all extraordinarily good polices that could be transformative for many American families. Yet none of them can be called “revolutionary.” Bernie has always pushed the system to think big, but when push comes to shove, he votes for what he thinks will do the most good for the most people.


The funniest thing about #arxivgate is that it’s going to drive everyone to use AIs to ensure their papers are in compliance because AIs are literally the only entity with the patience to read an entire paper.














Cinematographer Hillary Fyfe Spera reveals the opening fight scene on the Northern Star ship was originally a oner. "There was one on the boat in E1 that was a oner that ended up being edited a little bit differently, but it was all conceived as a oner." (via: @Geektown)
