Putin will have the impression this morning that European democracies are weak and he can win this war. Peacetalks will go nowhere, Putin will calculate that he can, as a dictator, make his people suffer more and longer then the people in Europe....

Historically Black colleges and universities like Tennessee State University have been poorly funded by state governments since the Jim Crow era. We attempted to calculate how much TSU has been shorted. @tennesseelookout.com and @wpln.bluesky.social.
How much has Tennessee State University been underfunded? Here are 4 calculations • Tennessee Lookout

He'll just have his people calculate inflation without food, rent, and healthcare. If you do less testing, then you'll have less cases.
This is the guy who called people the R word. 😐

Does the Bureau of Labor Statistics calculate CPI? The same bureau whose commissioner was fired for reporting a high unemployment number.

it's not actually trying to run a business! It's trying to calculate the distribution of tokens that will best produce a response that a bored US undergrad will think is satisfactory!

the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice. we can calculate the area under the curve using integration, which corresponds to net unnecessary suffering aaaand wow that's a really big number, i see now why we don't normally do this

You don't think maybe just a little of the blame attaches to the politicians who don't have ANY principles -- the ones like Newsom who consciously, deliberately calculate on how many of the groups in Niemoller's poem they can afford to write off for the sake of electability?

I just got my CI from 6m44s down to 4m7s and it took ONE change in Playwright config.
How come nobody ever told me Playwright fails to properly calculate the number of cores your CI machine has? This tiny screenshot screams of MONTHS of time wasted on CI over the years.

I had a great semester (my worst semester was probably Spring 2017 or Fall 2020) but it made me realize how oppressive it feels in the background, that everything you say and assign has to calculate the risk of making a MAGA mad

The funny thing about corporations doing surveillance pricing/targeted pricing is that its a technology based on figuring out prices for individuals and companies

If you've had experience with a narcissistic manipulator, eventually you start to get that... It's not a grand mental strategy where they pick choices from a tray of options and calculate to "hit you with (x) in order to (y)." It's all just instinctual reaction to them. It's the only tools they got.
