trump is so awful that even people who have never voted democrat a day in their life want to vote against him and the democratic party has capitalized on this by running a man who can't even string three coherent sentences together. it's unbelievable. it's unbelievable!

It's finally out!. Lots of work from four groups went into this paper on catalytic WW domains. Hopefully the next one will be easier (first draft of this paper dates back to June 2022!).
JACS Au wanted us to change the abstract image, but I think it's perfect 😊

It's pretty incredible to think they somehow spent fifty BILLION dollars on this as of a year or two ago and not only can I not fathom where that money went, but we barely even talk about it because it's overshadowed by even stupider wastes entirely by guys named Sam.

make no mistake. the primary objective of these AI companies is not to benefit society, advance science or human flourishing (as they keep telling us) but to consolidate power where it already is concentrated and control, monitor and surveil each & every move we make www.theverge.com/2024/6/13/24...

En Santiago también y todas las reformas de las calles o la nueva estación de tren, sin un puñetero árbol. Parece que los arquitectos aún no se han enterado de que el sol hace los mares de baldosas y cemento poco habitables.

We never think about the energy required to run these thins but… “In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually.” 😵‍💫

Octothorp [AWK-toh-thohrp] (n.) 1. The # symbol commonly known as the number sign, hash mark, hashtag, crosshatch, or pound sign. Used in a sentence: “Without the rallying cry of the humble octothorp, all of the interweb ballyhoo would amount to little more than caterwauling into nihility.”

We gave an entire generation PTSD by letting their schools get shot up, repeatedly, and teaching them that they'd have to save themselves because no one else is coming for them. It's not a wonder they're rioting. They're so fucking sick of the violence.
