Goddamn Tom, I feel this all too deeply

Now that’s a πŸ‘Ό we can all get behind!

This is so true, thank you for helping me see this!

Shoot, why did you have to include really funny in your ask? I was all ready to suggest myself to come on to talk about mathematics in fiction

Of course, how could I forget the ole meal Deal

What other (almost) rhyming morning combos for you like? Oatmeal and Kim Deal?

Seeing the amazing imaging work being done by these folks, especially the Single Photon Avalanche Diode imaging and effects was a real highlight for me reporting this season

Come for the math, stats, and computational science, but definitely stay for the donuts

And here I was thinking this is confirmation she was a time bomb

Ooof, I didn’t need to know that combination

I am an AI skeptic too, and think most of the claims about them are overblown. Though this study’s methodology does not seem great and compares tools that do different things as if they are the same. @aarontay.bsky.social has a good thread exploring some issues from a research librarian perspective

I learned so much reporting this episode. Please give it a listen!

I learned so much reporting this episode about quantum computing and information. Not least of which is that the speed of light is possibly less constant than I think it should be

I hate how probable this is. I hate it so much!

Aww, how quaint that feels now that NSF has been explicitly directed to favor research that promotes the β€œsafety” of the US

This is something as a math communicator and librarian I am very curious about. I have seen a push toward more and more people getting linear algebra in their college experience. But I don’t know if it is specifically AI based or because of computational science more holistically

I have actually spun up my own rss server for this exact reason

At least one of the point of view characters in Charlie Jane Anders’s Unbeatable trilogy match this, except significantly less angry/violent pov. The other point of view characters almost all have anxiety of some sort too

We have always existed and we will always exist! And I, and so many others, will keep fighting to make that existence more joyful, dynamic, and robust. And remember trans* is a term of power, and fuck anyone who thinks it is a slur

Also, remember the reason they are doing all of this. They are scared of us because we are fucking magic. We know who we are and refuse to conform just because people want us to. That gives us a power that they can never imagine, the power to be wholly and truly ourselves!

Combine this with Skermetti and I am so scared for trans youth out there today and tomorrow and until we can all agree in this country that we will actually respect the right for people to live as their whole selves
