8675309 is prime, and so is 8675311, so if you ever need a middlin'-large pair of adjacent primes to test your cryptographic suite, all you need is a 1980s earworm and a +2 and you're all set.
Man, everything is so bleak, anyone got a fun fact or little bit of trivia they want to share

He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.
The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

I was shocked when I first saw these results from standard climate models used in IPCC reports: for high emissions, the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC shuts down in all 9 models that ran past 2100, and is well on the way to shutdown by 2100.
Our paper on that is out today.🧵

Interesting research! Human beings are, by nature, extremely bad at noticing & appreciating the significance of gradual change over time. We notice binaries, on/offs, either/ors.
"Winter temperatures gradually rising." - no one cares
"Lake X used to freeze over; now it doesn't." - people notice

Binary climate data visuals amplify perceived impact of climate change.

I really can't overstate how badly caught off-guard the entire financial world is by this announcement. It's pretty clearly worse than the consensus worst-case scenarios.
Have been preparing for this day for a while and coming into this morning I really thought there was a chance we had oversold what Trump was gonna do. I spent actual time thinking about it. And then the reality was SOOOOOO much dumber and worse than anyone’s expectations
