Easier for senior people to just trust but still
Clément Canonne@ccanonne.github.io · 4d ago"We're all worried," as what it means to do research (in my field, Theoretical CS) seems to be shifting, and shifting fast. What to do? Senior researchers must lead by example, knowing that not everything will pan out. What I'm suggesting below may not work everywhere, but here's my own advice: 1/
NYT throwing shade at Bitcoin and so few appreciate it. Zero Kelvins.
I'm using Opus 4.8 Asked about a stability result for a nonlinear flow based on estimates I had written in another paper and estimate for a rescaled flow. Abstract and theorem were promising- dug into proofs -all based on linear methods.
The bitcoin wallet story is salient but sad, many real people hurt, but if you really want to go for "best practices are fake and gay" style Schadenfreude I would read up on Situational Awareness - unclear if real people were hurt or not
Never doubt that a small group of coherent, economically powerful organizations can change the world; indeed, it just did

In bitcoin news – a wallet generator that didn't use sufficient entropy led to a bunch of wallets with keys that were easy to guess A bunch of these got drained yesterday
The most true thing I’ve learned about politics over the last decade is that people who revel in cruelty are untrustworthy allies of the left. If you follow someone who engages in and celebrates cruelty, even on social media, because you like their politics, they will betray you and those politics.
ellie lockhart (she/they)@eleanor.lockhart.contact · last wk.The reason you keep seeing your mutuals fighting over Will Stancil and it’s annoying you is that you’re trying to maintain contact with both the people who support public harassment and scapegoating and the people who can see that if they can do this to Will they can do this to any of us
"CAS has a compelling need to co-locate operations staff so they can cross-train, share knowledge, and sustainably support the units they serve."
watched the Netflix doc on prediction markets and please goddammit the Polymarket gave Trump 27% chance of winning the popular vote they were in no reasonable sense of the phrase "spot on" If you're doing a piece on prediction markets please reach out to a math or stats resource
I used to push back on things. Now it seems I just flag them.
Describing Trump as a normal functional human being is so exceedingly jarring that I think it might be one of the strongest moves journalists can do right now. Keep it coming NYT.

You'd think some of the lessons from Tesla would be transferable too SpaceX Or IDK maybe we have a brain plasticity crisis
I had been on the fence about whether I want to spend three hours sitting in a theater
Enjoyed this piece. Funny it's not getting traction on Bluesky. 😀
Kyle Saunders@kylesaunders.bsky.social · 4w agoThe useful idiot at the top isn't the one who won't fight. It's the one who fights half the time and calls it principle.

Very proud of my sons who each won gold in their 4+s at US Rowing summer nationals in Michigan last weekend.
Something that people who exist professionally and socially online (especially journalists) don't appreciate is that out-of-context quote or label can be damaging. I would be fine being a character of the day if it stayed here -- but i really have no idea how these labels are being gossiped iRL
Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social · 2w ago"It's traumatizing to quote my post, which itself was a quote of someone else's post" is one of the dumbest ideas in common circulation on this website and needs to die. Get over it. Eight people replying to you isn't violence.
Reposting without comment other than the comment pointing out that I'm reposting without comment.

Phenomenal. This is masterclass tier journalism top to bottom The headline the picture, 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
I'm convinced that many of the more active accounts on this site are literal bots and nobody wants to call them out in case they're real
Looking at volume and content of quotes and replies .. Bluesky should just be burnt to the ground at this point. Completely irredeemable. Exulting at NYT getting subpoenaed yesterday and attacking Elizabeth Warren (Elizabeth Warren!) today ... Candace Owens tier behavior
Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.gov · 3w agoI got to know Senator Lindsey Graham traveling with him abroad in Afghanistan and Ukraine. We had just met to renew the fight for our Big Tech bill. Even though we disagreed on much, he was always willing to negotiate, with humor and wit. My heart goes out to his loved ones.
