A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I think Derek Guy has the highest signal-to-noise ratio on Bluesky
just got out of an uber. the driver was telling me how he has to work 16 hour days, seven days a week, at two different jobs to afford rent. he doesn't have healthcare and he worries about retirement. "i would feel a lot better if we owned greenland," he told me. then he cried.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social It's hard to listen to Senator Kaine just a day after he voted to confirm a Trump judge. I'd have liked to ask him why he thinks the defiance regarding Greenland that he hears in private from his GOP colleagues would last two seconds against one mean Trump Truth.

I asked several LLMs to help coin a term for a corollary to Gell-Mann Amnesia related to LLMs instead of the news media. ChatGPT came up with Turing Amnesia, Gemini suggested The Turing Blindspot, but I think Claude has the best suggestion: Altman Amnesia.

Inspired by a zoom talk on Escher-like Spiral Tiling yesterday by @isohedral.ca, wrote some code that's probably not quite working right but it's still pretty fun... Here, the starting tile is a small symmetric Turing Pattern with a little color added. #mathart

This is great. We also *need* a Constitutional Amendment to completely reform presidential pardon power!
Some people have asked what I mean when I talk about the need for anti-corruption reforms. Here are some ideas.

Leonard Bernstein Introduces 7‑Year-Old Yo-Yo Ma: Watch the Youngster Perform for John F. Kennedy (1962)
Asked to think of a virtuoso cellist, many of us immediately imagine Yo-Yo Ma, not just because of his considerable skill but also because of the sheer length of his residency in popular culture.

The new museum was worth the wait! The collection looks fantastic, the "promised to museum" pieces in the Princeton Collects exhibit promise a great future collection, and the building itself is gorgeous. So happy to have this back in the neighborhood!
Princeton University Art Museum is reopening this week after an extensive five-year renovation. It now "takes its place at the very front rank of art institutions in New Jersey," Tris McCall writes.

Their project depends on making us all feel alone, isolated and powerless. Taking part in a protest destroys all of those feelings in an instant. Go.
Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.
