[Tits (not real, not birds)] Someone left a pair of tits at Santa Lucia’s altar and I’m confused. #LatourOnTour #Porto #Portugal

Today is a good day! My dad and I collect depictions of “Virgin and Child with Saint Anne” (or “Anna te drieën” in Dutch). There aren’t that many of them, so imagine my delight when I found one in the museum at St. Francisco’s church in Porto! #Art #LatourOnTour #Porto #Portugal

[Vegetarian food pic] I got three spoons with my soup? More incredibly: the guy opposite of me teaches spoon carving workshops and *did not mention this* as we were discussing the three spoon logic‽ #Food #Soup #Spoons #Porto #latourontour

[Mild lewdness] Yesterday’s train journey 🥲 #LatourOnTour #Lisbon #Portugal

I guess the inventor of the citrus press repurposed their early prototypes as decorations for the Jerónimos Monastery. #LatourOnTour #Upcycling #Lisbon

[Mild lewdness] Yesterday’s train journey 🥲 #LatourOnTour #Lisbon #Portugal

I’m in the front of the train. Walked quite a bit to get to the part where there’s literally nobody. Like: 4 empty carriages in a row. The man who walked behind me on the platform got in, and sat down next to me. Men… why? #Trains #LatourOnTour

RE: https://mathstodon.xyz/@anna/117267970805184235 I just realised that my autocorrect had "corrected" my "recursion" to "revision", so I edited this toot to correct that incorrect "revision" correction and I feel like somewhere there's a metaphor for life in here... My dad always says that […]

Today at a family reunion, we wanted to take a group picture. We asked a passerby to be our photographer. As she was taking our picture, another passerby approached her and went: “shall I take it, so you can be in the picture, too?” She went: “Oh no, thanks […] [Original post on mathstodon.xyz]

Was at a reunion yesterday. One of my friends was bigging me up, encouraging me to tell ppl that I’m a professor, and to be proud of that. When I did, I was met with mostly concerns for my wellbeing, with ppl positing that academia in general and CS in particular is too misogynistic for me to […]

A Singapore newspaper asked ‘are Singaporeans psychologically prepared for a terror attack’ The top voted answer was ‘we are hardly psychologically prepared for a train breakdown!’ That made me laugh. But also, I’ve been thinking about how growing up in a place where (external) things mostly […]

My YouTube algorithm knows me quite well. Which is why the fact that I’ve stumbled upon headstone and grave maintenance YouTube, worries me.

Ik vind het moeilijk om aan te geven hoe frustrerend/woestmakend het is als je met iemand heen en weer aan het appen bent over ideeën en ze dan ineens “dit is wat mijn LLM erover zegt” droppen. Zonder verder commentaar, zonder hun eigen visie. Vertel me wat je partner erover zegt, vertel me wat […]

The probabilistic programming library #Probula in #Scala, got a new minor release today (v.0.2.3). The release includes a bunch of small improvements that slowly make probula usable: (support for vectorized variables/plates, for-comprehensions, truncated […] [Original post on social.dukla.ch]

RE: https://mathstodon.xyz/@ionica/117251568402227741 The new and by now famous mathematics proof (surrounded by some controversies) did cost 22.5 Million … lots of Mathematicians to hire for that 🤔

'Het nieuwe bewijs van OpenAI heeft naar schatting 22,5 miljoen dollar aan rekenkracht gekost. Daarvan had je Andrew Wiles zo’n 225 jaar kunnen inhuren. Of, realistischer, dertig wiskundigen van het kaliber Andrew Wiles voor zeven jaar.' [DPG] https://www.volkskrant.nl/cs-b44c3da4/

The NS schedule is set-up in such a way that you should ignore all your geographical knowledge of the Netherlands before boarding a train. Sent from the intercity to Venlo while going from Rotterdam to Den Haag.

I registered for an event, seemingly organised by one of my favourite professors, who retired a few years ago. I was super excited to get to see him again. Turns out he shares a name with the *actual* organiser of the event 😅 I'm sure that guy is nice, too. At least now I have an opportunity […]

What month of 2020 are we in now?

RE: https://mathstodon.xyz/@anna/116180223051511708 I was missing Kopi Bro so I actually googled him, b/c surely a legend like him should be findable online, right? https://youtu.be/SzZJjjSq1W8 Given that I'm not on instagram, I feel 100x more honoured that he recognised me and remembered my […]
