I guess good on them for coming out with this but I kind of question their judgment that this was not really important to mention during the Brexit campaign
Wow, the dam has really broken on allegations about Farage’s racism when he was at school. There was nothing like this intensity during Brexit - I think it says a lot about how much more dangerous he is now perceived to be. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
‘He used to say things like “Hitler was right”’: Farage faces more allegations of racist behaviour at school

Does anyone actually know what happened to Ricky Gervais?
I'm told The Office was actually really good and I remember Extras being pretty funny.

Suppose you are handed a sheaf F of functions on some complex torus, call it T_τ = C/⟨1,τ⟩.
By duality, it has to be possible to retrieve τ from F
How would you go about calculating τ?

Can't help but feel a little bad for Dutch TERFs because the Dutch word for "female" (vrouwelijk) is related to the word for "woman" (vrouw) so their favourite line about "adult human female" is not only much more clunky but also even more transparently circular than usual
