@Math_files This story is from a few years ago and out seems some new pieces have been added.

Harvard believes the next Einstein is already among us. Meet Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski, a quiet theoretical physicist and one of the brightest minds of her generation. At 14, she built a real airplane. At 16, she flew it alone. When MIT rejected her, she sent them a video of the plane she built instead. Their reply: "Start next semester." She later graduated with a perfect GPA, was cited by Stephen Hawking, and turned down offers from Google, Facebook, and Jeff Bezos. Instead of chasing money and fame, she chose to focus on understanding the universe.

@xdadevelopers Isn't that like a Comp Sci 201 project?

@NaughtiusMaxi10 @historyinmemes Literally two major Portlands at least.

@historyinmemes Some odd omissions that I thought everyone would know without the state info - Omaha, Portland, Nashville etc

The 30 U.S. cities where journalists can drop the state name when referencing them. This map highlights the 30 U.S. cities that can stand alone in AP Style, meaning journalists do not need to include the state name in datelines or many written references. AP Style (Associated Press Style) is a standardized writing guide used across much of journalism, covering rules for dates, titles, numbers, punctuation, capitalization, abbreviations, and geographic references. Under these guidelines, cities like “CHICAGO” or “ATLANTA” can appear without a state abbreviation because they are considered widely recognizable. So instead of writing “CHICAGO, Ill.,” journalists can simply use “CHICAGO.” The selection isn’t based purely on population size. It also reflects national familiarity, frequency in news coverage, and how easily a city can be identified without additional context. That’s why some major cities are excluded, while others like Honolulu, Salt Lake City, and Oklahoma City are included—they are strongly associated with their states and widely understood in national reporting. In AP Style datelines, these approved cities are written in all caps, so a story might begin with “BOSTON –” rather than “BOSTON, Mass. –”.

@Ezekle1 @Variety Who even is that?

@Variety Parents have one lesson to learn. NeVER GIvE Your Kids to Hollywood!

Daveigh Chase, who voiced Lilo in "Lilo & Stitch" and starred in "The Ring," died of AIDS, according to the LA coroner's office. A secondary cause was listed as “chronic polysubstance use.” Chase’s father told the New York Times that she had been homeless and had struggled with drugs since the age of 13. variety.com/2026/tv/news/d…

@kathysyock @nypost That's just called arrogance.

Calling him a "weirdo" misses what's actually going on. he speaks directly, at his own pace and density, defaulting to the assumption that you can follow his narrative. he doesn't stop to gauge what level the listener is at, whether they need some setup, or whether he should put it a different way. that's not weird. it's a content-centered style rather than a listener-centered one. you see it in a lot of high-iq, high-focus people: the logic in their head is internally consistent, they just don't spend much energy building a bridge for you to walk in.

@PandaSquiish @TheGalox_ I've had three flips and they've all been fantastic.

@TheGalox_ And flip/fold sales after 7 years still account for a tiny fraction of sales. I dont know anyone who has a foldable Iv had them in the past but only briefly. One person had a flip, screen cracked and they will never go back.

Galaxy Z Flip has been the most effective Android phone in making iPhone users switch With each new Z Flip model there's a wave of first time Android users that made the switch because of the form factor and customization

@digitalbrain01 @AMAZlNGNATURE Someone arrest that man.

@AMAZlNGNATURE Cigarette butts top every river cleanup haul. Somehow tossing them is legal but removing them isn't.

U.K. lawyer faces possible prosecution after cleaning 200 bags of waste from polluted river without permit Paul Powlesland says fish and dragonflies returned after the cleanup, but authorities are investigating whether it violated environmental regulations

@AMAZlNGNATURE Oi, you got a permit fer that cleaner-upper?

@JustAdaugoijele @historyinmemes Not cursive.

During the filming of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, 10-year-old Emma Watson wasn’t simply pretending to write during Transfiguration class—she was actually dipping a quill into real ink and writing a personal note. Behind-the-scenes footage preserved by the Huntley Film Archives captured Watson practicing her handwriting at her desk while filming the iconic scene in which Harry and Ron arrive late to Professor McGonagall’s lesson. Despite how difficult feather quills can be to use, the young actress displayed impressively neat cursive handwriting for her age, adding an authentic and charming detail to the scene.

@Keanu_Pitt @XXL And he'll end up just saying it's all Steve Jobs and Apple, Inc.

Of course that's his contention. It’s his first time rapping. He just got finished reading some Marxian lyricist , T La Rock probably, he’s gonna be convinced of that until next month when he gets to Super lover cee, then he’s gonna be talking about how the economies of Brooklyn and Chicago were entrepreneurial and capitalist way back in 1740. That's gonna last until next year, he’s gonna be in here regurgitating public enemy talkin’ about, you know, the Pre-revolutionary utopia and the capital forming effects of military mobilization.

Actor Matt Damon debuts his rapping alter-ego, The Nomad, as part of a launch to help end the global water crisis. Last week, Damon revealed that he is joining forces with producer Hit-Boy to try his hand at rap, as part of the launch for Get Blue, a new initiative from Water[dot]org, founded by Damon and Gary White. In a hilarious promo video, Damon tells Hit-Boy about his plans and tries to get in the booth and drop some bars, all in an effort to raise awareness for the cause.

@JoeCascone52323 @mgreene1414214 @Math_files How about zero?

@mgreene1414214 @Math_files Can you write decimals with Roman Numerals?

The digits 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1, together with the symbol 0, make it possible to write any number. Using this simple set of numerals, one can represent values of any size. This system, known today as the Hindu–Arabic numeral system, was introduced to Europe by Leonardo Fibonacci in the early thirteenth century through a mathematical work that explained its power and efficiency.

@Vladek_16 @IGN That's not how AI works though. It doesn't make up extra fingers you*can't* see. This is just a hand placed lazily. Not AI. Human laziness

@IGN For all the negative IQ in the comment, you only see 4 fingers from this pov So yes, there is 6 fingers on this warhammer image 5 in the front + the thumb behind the grip

@airandspace It appears "backwards" half the time on a flagpole, too. It's a flag, not a logo.

Have you ever noticed that the American flag sometimes appears to be backward on aircraft, spacecraft, and uniforms? We explore why on the blog: s.si.edu/4n1rGTX #FlagDay

@VagnerVB @Orewalokida @Pirat_Nation No

@Orewalokida @Pirat_Nation Starfield é incrível... só faltou eles aproveitarem melhor o universo que criaram. Mas entregaram um jogo com uma campanha boa. E com o melhor NewGame+ que já vi na vida. Faz um sentido enorme!

New Xbox CEO Asha Sharma reportedly wants Fallout and Elder Scrolls games released faster as Bethesda reaches 8 years since The Elder Scrolls VI reveal. Xbox executive Matt Booty recently said he has seen the game and that it “looks amazing” and is “coming along well.” However, he said Microsoft wants to reveal more when the time is right.

@orskyai @Google This is no more true for passkeys than it was for passwords. Less so, even, since passkeys have various portability and reset options built in from the get-go.

@Google Passkeys are great until you lose the device they're tied to and realize you've just locked yourself out of your own digital life.

🧵Fact: Passkeys are the simplest and most secure way to sign in to your Google accounts. For National Fishing Week 🎣, we’re sharing some pro tips about passkeys to help keep your sign-ins secure so you can avoid phishing scams that try to hook you into sharing your data 👇 First: What are passkeys? 🔑 Passkeys are an easy and more secure alternative to traditional passwords. They let you sign in to your Google accounts with just a fingerprint, face scan or screen lock.

@screenrant Cash grab that didn't make a lot of sense as a story.

The Broadway play, acting as a prequel to the hit #Netflix series, #StrangerThings: The First Shadow, will officially be closing its doors on Broadway and London's West End. 🎭️ It will conclude in London on December 27 and on Broadway on January 3, 2027. Read More: bit.ly/4xiy8Lf

@Milovxyvy @DiscussingFilm I agree with this man. Everyone reply to me.
