I wasn’t expecting complete fascist victory to be so… cringe

considering trump has spent the last four years pretending he won the previous election I actually do wonder if part of the subtext is “we acknowledge you won for real realsies and we cannot talk shit about you as a fake president”

funnily enough I had posted in that thread and some neolib guy enthusiastically recommended tracingwoodgrains on David Gerard (?!) in my replies

ha, the screen cap is from the ibck subreddit. one of my favorite podcasts

why do neurotypical people love to do this. why can’t you say sam harris sucks in a normal way

love when a search engine has a random guy who knows nothing message me some bullshit he made up about a search. of course, you have to double check the bullshit. but it’s a great feature

yes, i am. i’ve been plotting to get out for years but i’ve been too depressed since my partner died to make any progress tbh. i’ve no idea what to do

re: election results. unfortunately i’m not surprised or even disappointed by now. it makes me feel sad for my 2015 self and her naivete. she didn’t understand what a disgusting and evil culture she lived in

unfortunately the six active players bit is a joke

this is one of the wildest articles I’ve ever read

between this and the submersible guy I’m starting to think we need more billionaires on the ocean. maybe peter thiel is onto something

yah there we go. gauss-jordan to reduce to rref

on a side note, I notice this passage in the review:

Wolfram refers incessantly to his “discovery” that simple rules can produce complex results. Now, the word “discovery” here is legitimate, but only in a special sense. When I took pre-calculus in high school, I came up with a method for solving systems of linear equations, independent of my textbook and my teacher: I discovered it. My teacher, more patient than I would be with adolescent arrogance, gently informed me that it was a standard technique, in any book on linear algebra, called “reduction to Jordan normal form”, after the man who discovered it in the 1800s. Wolfram discovered simple rules producing complexity in just the same way that I discovered Jordan normal form.

this is certainly mistaken. I think the author or teacher must have meant RREF or something to that effect, not Jordan normal form

horrifying

that’s quite appealing to me ngl
