Lolll.

All these Republicans who caused the Nazis and now don't want them after all.

Will writes, "most Americans disagree with most of what she believes."
So, um, that's not true. Like, literally, that's objectively false.
Every bit of real data we have about what "Americans believe" indicates that majorities agree with nearly everything Harris advocates.
Even "traditional" Republicans are living in a state of constant delusion and have been for all of their political careers.
*Gestures wildly at "trickle-down economics" as another proof of this fact.*

Conservatives need to believe they are the majority, because that makes them "normal" and everyone else "abnormal."
The reality is that they're the abnormal ones. They're the weirdos. And that's why calling them weird is such an effective attack. Their entire worldview is predicated on being able to other people who aren't like them.

Sometimes, while watching ThePrimeagen/ThePrimeTime,
you come across gem phrases perfect for debating programming languages.
Some examples from his recent video:
* "Rust does not guarantee that you've written a correct program."
* "Which is there is no replacement for human stupidity and this includes llms, because llms are written from human stupidity"
* "Devs are incrediable at Bikeshedding"

Interesting STUDY about #COVID19 transmission in restaurants. It confirms fomite (infection from contact) risk is low and that masking helps.

“The primary transmission routes were short-range (contributing 5.8%-70.9%) and long-range airborne (contributing 28.4%-93.0%), with fomite and large droplet routes contributing less than 12%. Staff-only mask wearing reduced infection risk by 12.8%-31.8%.”

Our proposed ‘connection recommendation’ system will offer mentorship opportunities to link trainees with mentors from diverse backgrounds and career stages…Our platform will reduce the cost of networking for underrepresented scholars — thus fostering diversity in research."

To determine the number of possible labeled graphs for a fixed number of vertices n:

- For each possible edge, decide whether to include it or not.
- This results in a binary choice for each edge.
- The number of possible edges is the number of combinations of 2 vertices.
- The number of combinations of 2 vertices among n is n(n−1)/2​.
- The number of possible graphs is 2^(n(n−1)/2)​.
- For 5 vertices, this number is 2^10=1024.

I want to get one of these signs even though I live in a neighborhood that strictly prohibits putting up political signs ever, even near elections. #uspoli #humor

If you resisted legally, I don't think the neighborhood could enforce this rule.
