I got 48/50 btw (just missed MI and NV). I'm better at this than the polling agencies and Nate Silver

Last presidential election, I predicted 49/50 states correctly (all states except GA). Here's my prediction for this year: https://t.co/KMneMry8oP

I always think about predictions relative to the prior election: basically, I think PA, GA, MN, AZ are going to go red this time

Unpopular opinion from a practitioner:
Compilers are not hard. It is material like this that makes it hard. It is a classic case of divide and conquer with subtle but definitive transformations applied in a systematic manner.

Self-serving look at me how smart I am types are what makes it hard.

@pointbreezemax I don’t know if the flag was red but it might as well have been

Published in @NatureComms with @jure and @marinkazitnik! We present the multiscale interactome: a powerful approach to explain how drugs treat diseases. The MSI can predict treatment, explain treatment, and predict genes which alter efficacy! (1/14)

make this into a movie where he has to retrace his steps from 10 years ago and reconnects with some long lost love that he thinks is the basis for the password but is not -- he loses the money but gains something more

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Today is a reminder, a painful one, that democracy is fragile. To preserve it requires people of good will, leaders with the courage to stand up, who are devoted not to pursuit of power and personal interest at any cost, but to the common good.

In the US, you’re told to say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas, but in India we’d say Merry Christmas, Happy Diwali, Eid Mubarak regardless of our religion and zero people I know were ever offended.

Merry Christmas!

Stacey Abrams played an absolutely ENORMOUS role in Georgia turning blue. She has become one of the biggest civil and voting rights advocates in the country and helped register about 800,000 new voters. Give this Black woman the credit she deserves!
