@NMRobertRamirez nice satisfying combo :)

I've had this position in my teaching plan for years and always regarded it as a well known idea, but many of my students keep getting stuck on it lately. Where do you stand? White to move!

@Cryptotea hell no! speak up to survive! we're living in the time of silence is death.

We are living in a time where intelligent people have to stay silent to survive

@ThatEricAlper "Ah-hoo, werewolves of London"

What song is he singing?

@hamids @elonmusk it's rather glorious :)

SpaceX (xAI) is now in the cloud business! Not because that’s what @elonmusk wanted to do, but because he built more capacity than Grok users want, because relative to all the “woke AI” (as Elon likes to call them), Grok is retarded! So to pay for expenses he has to sell his excess capacity to his woke rivals. It’s funny that he was 💩on Anthropic until a couple weeks ago! 🤣

@TheCinesthetic because that's what a superman does :)

James Gunn says he almost cut the scene of Superman saving a squirrel from the film because test screening audiences didn’t like it: “They’re like, ‘Why the fuck is he saving a squirrel? Why is he taking time out, saving a squirrel?”

@esjesjesj if only he had made less money :)

Worth over 800 billion and whining about it

@JonathanPieNews for some, yes :)

Anything interesting happening today?

@LindaMy35506493 @Therealedblake

@Therealedblake Natural selection by choice. Let them have at it.🥴

We’re letting them take the ivermectin this time

@VolodyaTretyak 🎯

The bar in American politics is so low that everyone praises Rubio for simply speaking and finishing his thoughts.

@simonmaechling how bout them apples? ok, yes, and bananas :)

None of those fruits are natural. They’ve all been bred, selected, and modified by humans for centuries.

@TheCinesthetic QT is hilarious if you don't take him seriously :)

Quentin Tarantino says The Hunger Games straight up ripped off Battle Royale. “I do not understand how the Japanese writer didn’t sue [Hunger Games author] Suzanne Collins for every fucking thing she owns.” (Via: Bret Easton Ellis Podcast)

@SunshineSass2 @S_Fitzpatrick @TheAtlantic "commonplace in the business world"

Personalized bourbon or whiskey bottles swag gifts are very commonplace in the business world. Heck, I’ve received entire bourbon smoking kits from landlords. You are obsessed with Kash. Unrequited love is a terrible thing. Soon you are going to get rabbit in the cook pot obsessed.

EXCLUSIVE: My latest story for @TheAtlantic: theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

@esjesjesj that's how his brain works. you have decoded trump :)

This means someone said “by sea” to him and he didn’t know what it meant

@LePapillonBlu2 i have a theory :)

I will never understand how America went from an intelligent, kind and loving President Obama, to a complete uneducated moron, racist and hateful Donald Trump.

@ironmoon44 darkly brilliant :)

@DeivonDrago so, status quo?

I have an idea to improve inter-group relations. We should designate a specific group of people as responsible for all the ills faced by society. But we should shift the blame to a "different" group every month. Essentially, a formalized system of scapegoating.

@MeerMaurits @HaussernotC you can practically take an example of global/local scope from that board, re globally dynamic vs locally dynamic vs locally and globally static, wrt K/N/p vs R/B/Q. e.g., draw scope of N/K/p (constrained scope, circles), and contrast that with R/B/Q (intersecting lines, planes).

@HaussernotC Nj18xk16# (The first challenge was finding the black king 😅)

Next level challenge 😂😆 White to move, mate in 1! (I found this one in the depths of the Internet, definitely not created by me (or else you should send help))

@Logically_JC @atrupar

@atrupar It’s a cult. It’s always been a cult.

Emmer: "Donald Trump has never been stronger. He's become more than Donald Trump. He is an icon of the ages. When he speaks, people listen."

Governor Landry of Louisiana is now facing a recall for cancelling elections where people have already voted and now their votes won’t be counted. They need 500k signatures to get a recall vote.

I guess if they throw your king into the crowd, you are allowed to do a little fist-bump, hey.
