I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted “I’ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed. I’ll do the same with @CBSNews”. In Sept he posted this:

This is the way, make “ok, abolish only ICE” the moderate position.
Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”
House Democrat Says Abolishing ICE Isn’t Enough — DHS Must Go, Too
“The problem isn’t ‘training.’ DHS was built to violate our rights,” said Rep. Delia C. Ramirez.

We are excited to announce that we can successfully use Rust's standard library from the GPU. This has never been done before.

Supporting Rust's standard library enables existing Rust code to work on the GPU and makes GPU programming feel normal.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

we always knew that Philip Glass was a comrade
According to the Times, Glass's symphony is based on Lincoln's 1838 Lyceum Address.

In that speech, the 28yo Lincoln warned of the threats to American democracy both from above - the rise of an American Caesar - and from below - the mob.

me (vibe sciencing): Prism! Is pee stored in the balls? Explain it to me like I'm five, I'm a tech CEO so I don't actually understand technology or science

Prism: I've answered your bold question with schematic of balls that looks like the robot emoji

me: eureka! upload this to arXiv immediately
So initial experiments with Open AI's vibe-coding science tool Prism are going about as well as expected.

This tracks with LA. They make the spectacle, act like it's over when Bovino leaves and then continue the same level of crackdown without a spotlight after everyone gets used to it.

Hey #neurosky remember the good old days on Twitter when we could all unite around hating this guy?

My "Stanford is the root of all evil" theory goes undefeated
*sigh* Hubrisman is basically a men's health influencer disguised as a "neuroscientist" at Stanford. A brainmaxxer, if you will. He makes Kary Mullis look like Carl Sagan.

You will be utterly shocked to learn that a NY mag article revealed that he is also a sex pest

I suspect right now Stephen Miller and the other nazis are meeting to discuss how a place not as “nice" or "peaceful” as Minnesota will provide better oxygen for their lies and goals of martial law.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Abolish ICE says the most popular Dem in the party. The most popular politician of the moment. The guy who got 50% of the insane melting pot known as NYC to vote for him. Maybe he's got the right instincts? Who can say
ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.
