Is half dome small enough to be a rock or does it count as a mountain?

The polling place where I usually work (not there today because I had to teach) is also getting way more voters than I was expecting. The only thing they've got on their ballot is a city council race, and it's a campus precinct. In similar elections in the past we've gotten just a single vote.

Oh, okay, I take it back! I didn't even realize there was a preprint. That seems legitimately useful.

I think the issue isn't with contributions being weighted unequally (of course different people contribute different amounts to different papers), but instead with attempting a one size fits all ranking. If the tool looked at author contributions and weighted based on that instead, I'd be open to it

Weird, I'm in the US and I don't think I've ever heard someone say "fennel." I'm a biologist not a chemist, though.

I guess the relevant follow-up question in what proportion of AI bubble money is going into building data centers/power plants (potentially long term useful, although I worry about the environmental costs) vs. developing software that's not actually going to be long-term useful.

Yingnan Gao has a major overhaul on his paper investigating how to detect selection in lineage tracing data using tree balance statistics! #evoSky

I love math and voting theory as much as the next complex systems scientist, but I think it's important to remember that there's a huge social science component here. I'm not aware of good data on this, but I strongly suspect that a major benefit of IRV is that it will reduce polarization.
