Them: why do you keep calling yourself a “statistician” instead of a “data scientist”

People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

this is like sucker punching a guy in a bar and then whining about unfairness when he beats the hell out of you instead of just punching you once in return

solving a quadratic equation is fun
doing algebra in general is fun
working with surds and remembering "oh yeahhh, I can treat the number 5 as root5 x root5 and solve this" is fun

it is the same fun as logic puzzles and sudoku. if you like that, you would like this.

Donald Trump is a child rapist

The exact care and consideration Pete Hegseth has for the troops.

there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).

the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.

Highly recommend, this is great, necessary conversation

You cannot compromise with bigotry - Nicholas Mitchell What is bigotry, how should we think about it, and why a strategy of appeasement will never work.

if you try to appease bigots, they'll think you're weak & push you further

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

We saw this over & over w/Biden's senior natsec teams approach to the Ukrainians. That they were somehow objects to be manipulated, not subjects to be interacted w/because Biden & his team were concerned w/the real actor: Putin & Russia. 3/

Specifically, having the people running natsec, foreign, & defense policy & strategy, as well as commanders & staffs at echelons below them deciding that we don't have to account for the people in the places with the things that we are concerned about or want to secure or want to influence. 2/

What @faineg.bsky.social has identified makes an existing problem worse. And that existing problem has been ongoing for well over a decade as it reverts to a terribly strategically inept mean that we fell into after Vietnam. 1/

Strategy is fundamentally all about developing a sophisticated theory of the mind of one’s opponent.

With MAGA’s Iran Adventure, guess we’re going to see what a modern war almost totally devoid of anything we’d call “strategy” looks like.

“MAGA’s fundamental shared quality is a total lack of theory of mind for other people” is a theory that keeps getting validated by reality - look at almost every decision they’ve made in the war with Iran, and how they seem constantly surprised by the unanticipated actions of other parties.

I wonder if Claude would be “anxious” because the military is using it to bomb schoolgirls or because it’s poisoning the air around data centers or because it’s going to crash the economy or because it’s encouraged thousands of psychotic delusions or all of the above

Type of guy who cosplays his software having feelings in order to avoid feeling personally responsible for how it was used to murder children is an increasingly common kind of guy in the software industry

I know fear of the Lord is out of fashion but you can reframe it for yourself as “these idiots don’t think bad things can happen to them.” Having a healthy understanding that you too can get got is indeed the beginning of wisdom lmao.

I too remember the earlier, woke wars. tons of spent microaggression munitions strewn about everywhere, friends crying out for God as they were slowly cancelled...look, if you weren't there, you'll never understand

number goes up: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!

number goes down: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

"Commodity analysts in my feed: This is epic and will go down in the history books as one of the biggest supply shocks.

Mainstream media: Some slight disruptions in the availability of a few commodities might happen. Meanwhile, here's a video of another exploding launcher." - Guy Laron

Men, learn how to cook — you don’t have to be a gourmet chef or anything, but it’s such an essential life skill, and it’s also very attractive

This is one of those things that is less sexy to talk about but is unequivocally a war crime
