Today we celebrate Alan Turing, one of the founders of modern computing, born on this day in 1912.
Turing studied at Princeton, completing his Ph.D. in math in 1938. His research on code-breaking helped to win WWII and he made groundbreaking contributions to AI and machine learning.
Persecuted for being gay, which was then a crime in Great Britain, Turing died in 1954 at the age of 41.
His portrait, by Jordan Sokol, hangs in the atrium of Lewis Library on Princeton's campus.

There may be little point to these comments, because the people who need to hear them most are incapable of empathy. Our bombing of Iran was a surprise attack, and the initial missiles flung at the…Pharyngula

Das Bild zeigt zwei Cartoon-Vögel auf einem Felsen vor einem blauen Hintergrund mit grünen Pflanzen. Der linke Vogel ist rot und hat eine besorgte Miene, während er spricht: "Schatz, wir müssen reden!" Der rechte Vogel ist orange und hält ein Smartphone in der Hand, während er antwortet: "Kann ich nicht einfach irgendwo unterscrollen und auf „Akzeptieren“ drücken?" Der orange Vogel scheint auf das Smartphone konzentriert zu sein. Die Szene spielt auf die moderne Kommunikation und die Verwendung von Smartphones an, insbesondere im Kontext von Online-Interaktionen.

Dat is natuurlijk wel een probleem. Oké. Niet iedereen kan het. Maar er is verbazend weinig geld voor nodig. Voor minder dan een ton woon je al héél leuk.

Open social media software enables all users alike, the ones who want to genuinely connect with other people on the left hand, and on the right hand, the ones who want to scam as much as they can out of NPCs just for a higher score carved into their grave marker. They each benefit from the same work, but one side tends to kick back more to the toolmakers.
But that's not capitalism. The only innovation capitalism breeds is how to capture more of the consumer benefit of trade.
Joining in Israel’s aggression against Iran would hurt, not advance, U.S. interests and international security.
This should not be surprising, given that support for U.S. interests and international security was not what led to Israel’s launching of the war.
Israeli PM Netanyahu argues that Iran’s nuclear program poses a threat to America and not just Israel, but the nuclear issue was not the main motivation behind Israels attack.
