First time seeing @suno_ai_ out in the wild and boy is it wild instagram.com/reel/C6LG8RIsZ…
Remember how the EPA killed the sedan? newrepublic.com/article/180044…
weirdly thrown off that I only just noticed that every raindrop on a windowpane is a tiny lens and has a tiny inverted picture of the world inside it 🐛🫶🏻
When I was younger, I always worshiped people who could find the right solution to a difficult problem. But now I've realized that it is so much harder and so much more important to find the right problem to work on, even if you cannot find a solution yet.
Whenever i'm looking for a little laugh, I let my macbook take the first crack at defining whichever unfamiliar acronym i've come across
Old tweet but one I've referenced in conversation at least twice since. I really think that relearning math through coding could help so many people who were perplexed and/or traumatized by their first pass.

There was a really special moment when I was first learning to write proofs that I realized "woah! this way of thinking through things can allow me to understand any piece of math I want, all on my own terms" :')

The media largely overemphasizes this small subset of overall crime in its public safety coverage, leaving people anxious about certain kinds of harm and in the dark about other important safety issues in their communities. (See: water contamination.)
Was curious why "kind" means both "good natured" and "category". Apparently you are "kind" if you treat others like you would your "kin", and our "kin" exhibit a nexus of similar traits that provided us an a priori for categorical thinking. Cool!

There’s an art to distilling these to the absolute minimal necessary text. The human brain can’t comprehend how stupid these things are without practice.
one of the most important things I know about deep learning I learned from this paper: "Pretraining Without Attention" this what I found so surprising: these people developed an architecture very different from Transformers called BiGS, spent months and months optimizing it and…
An absolutely fantastic way to increase this is to start a blog. Almost all the cool fun stuff in my professional life for me has come from doing stuff then blogging about it. henrikkarlsson.xyz/p/search-query
"The amount of serendipity that will occur in your life is directly proportional to the degree to which you do something you're passionate about combined with the total number of people to whom this is effectively communicated."
Oh my god what a chant
students are now chanting “who (failed uvalde? dps!” (dps is the department of public safety in texas)
not true, especially for language. if you trained a large & deep MLP language model with no self-attention, no matter how much data you'll feed it you'll still be lacking behind a transformer (with much less data). will it get to the same point? i don't think so. your tokens…

Today in @thenation we have a piece by Lujayn, a 14-year-old girl in Gaza, that has floored me every time I've read it. It's about what happened when an Israeli bulldozer came to destroy the house she was staying in, and you must, must, must read it. thenation.com/article/world/…
I know this is being normalized extremely quickly, but let’s take a step back, put political analysis aside, and think about how insane this is. Students across the country are being arrested by actual police for sitting on the lawns of their universities with tents and signs.
9 arrested this morning on the U of MN campus for demanding the University cut all ties with the genocidal and illegal state of Israel.
I believe that @JonHaidt’s central claim that social media (SM) is the primary cause of an international youth mental health crisis, especially among girls, is based on a flawed understanding of the underlying data generating process (DGP). In this thread, I’ll show you how.
Currently coding a 3D model of an Electron Cloud idc, you can't tell me technology isn't cool as shit
Excited to announce “Of Fish and Fascists”, with the excellent @jbakcoleman and @PrincetonUPress! #collectivebehavior #book @CBehav @maxplanckpress
For those worried about Edward Said, he only visited for a short time before going home.
Newlywed @NerdeenKiswani came to Gaza Solidarity Encampment from her wedding to give words of encouragement to students. “We don’t want to wait for them to teach about our genocide 20 years later when we have the means & opportunities to stop it right now,” she said to the camp.
Just like the past few days I’ve stayed overnight in this encampment, there is really nothing else to report on but the wonderful energy of everyone being together. No cops, no agitators. Just Singing and Dancing on the Grass 🎶
It’s one of those details that speaks to the level of planning that went into the launch of this encampment & the depth of their commitment to it. They had solar panels to charge devices, a generator, hot plate, electric kettles - but what stands out is the toilet tent.
The most underreported part of the CU encampment before it got swept was that the students set up toilet tents. They had stacks of wet wipes & hand sanitizer, small garbage bags for your Needs, & “Poo Gel,” a powder which solidifies liquid & deodorizes. I miss you, toilet tent.
Rumble has received censorship demands from Australia, New Zealand, and other countries that infringe on everyone’s human rights. We are noticing a dramatic increase in global censorship, unlike anything we’ve seen before.
“We used the lightest touch as we mass arrested over 100 student protesters, loaded them onto buses, drove them downtown, & put them in cages. We didn’t even beat any of them or slam them onto the ground like we usually do!”
I commend our police officers for displaying the utmost professionalism at @Columbia today. Our SRG officers used the lightest touch when making arrests on campus, and took 108 individuals into custody without incident. @NYPDPC @NYPD1stDep @NYPDnews @NYPDChiefPatrol…
You have to fuck up on a truly historic level to get the NYPD to say “even we think these were meaningless arrests.” They love meaningless arrests!
