it’s so funny he ran on not doing this and is going to do it anyways. we’re about to find out at the cost of maybe quite a few lives—possibly including those of us here in LA and san diego!—what donald trump’s actual approval floor is

so my understanding is that the lean verification is actually pretty sparse in this latest drop of math papers. it's better in some areas than others, but for topology, extremely sparse. so this is, i think, highly intellectually dishonest.

the crazy thing this has revealed is just how many academics live outside the real world of money and things—many more than i would have thought! that, or we are witnessing the highest levels of copium anyone has ever ingested

they should invent an academic capable of asking the question "who will want to foot the bill for this?"

right, it reads exactly like that. i know evan, i asked him give a zoom talk to my REU students about math and industry in 2021. i thought he was a nice guy, but this joke absolutely blurs the line between like edge lord and misogynist in a way which makes it unclear which he intends to be

if they'd released all these math papers when i was an undergrad i don't think i would've gone and gotten a phd in the first place. why study something that's getting automated anyways

it’s malpractice to write a paper over 30 pages long without a section index

that means it’s not a fight we can win with facts, unfortunately. it’s a fight you have to win on social media (therefore by winning attention)

one of my friends is a pediatrician and he tells me that, in his liberal nbhd, there’s a lot of vaccine hesitancy. what this means imo is polluting the information environment in even the stupidest and most unreasonable way still sow doubt among apparently reasonable people.

makes sense tho. if you’re an amerikkkan voter, your first thought probably is: does this directly benefit me? if the answer is yes, you vote yes. if the answer is no, you vote no. probably why american voters hold no coherent constellation of opinions

gotta say i think trump is at or near his harder approval floor. there’s not much more room for him to lose supporters. his hard floor has to be something like 30% which is really incredible if you think about it. something like 30% of americans are enthralled by the cult of trump

sure they're just illegally cutting lawfully appropriated funding to vital science research and stuff but at least we are getting weird television ads where an insanely racist old man says something about globalists for that money instead

was discussing this at dinner last night: one of the many problems with trying to make policy 'that the American public wants' is that the American public change their minds all the time and are frequently very very stupid.

compared with other places i've lived, the violent crime in LA seems to have a larger random component, where some crazy asshole kills you for some reason

some pretty shocking, violent crimes happened near me in culver city recently. today, of course, a bus driver was shot in the head 3 times because a passenger missed their stop. but a couple months ago a carjacker in culver city was intentionally hitting pedestrians, also right by me.
