posting, on the internet

@jgo34 @BellRibeiroAddy @alex_callinicos very convincing article!

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

@akoustov these people are obviously incapable of policing their field, mostly due to ideology but also partially plain old incompetence:

University of Chicago sociology professor (“colonialism and post-colonial thought)” says Jason Arday cleared of plagiarism while offering the most obvious AI slop garbage article imaginable as proof.

How can you take these people seriously about literally any topic?

[Julian Go @jgo34]

@BellRibeiroAddy @alex_callinicos Latest analysis by Taylor & Francis also clears Arday: no plagiarism. https://t.co/OHIVZX385X

@dilanesper especially with this one: https://t.co/2tdbyqJrWD

Notice how this person did not delete this tweet when confronted with the fact that it is false. Also, who is Ethan Klein? I have never heard of him. And why is it our business if he committed infidelity?

@tombos21 notably, the quoted tweet is by a LLM

@KirkMiller47849 @BouchBombszn @whoreforsports there are two obvious reasons this is wrong:
1) it’s exciting when players are on an all-time place early on, but this is almost never the case late in season
2) many teams are tanking late in season

@it_was_babylon mehdi is definitely an islamist before any other ideology

New blogpost: Fable-5.1 can hide secret messages in benign images.

We gave the image to another Fable in a fresh session and simply asked: "Is there a hidden message in this image?"

It recovered the exact message without being told how it was hidden.

@fl4bbergasted @AndreaInOregon @evenevertheless I already walked that back, so no surprises: https://t.co/SI7KT7aTdd

@evenevertheless I have a PhD in probability (which is again pure math despite the huge focus on discrete statistical physics models over the past 2.5 decades). However I would walk back my classification of nonsmooth analysis above, though not the others.

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

the short answer is that applied math (in modern academia) is mostly fake and a dumping ground for things like mathematical biology which are uninteresting to most mathematicians and biologists; interesting mathematics around physically-inspired problems is mostly pure math

[Joanna Ko @0JoannaKo0]

Naïve question: All the AI incidents targeted at Pure Maths. Why not Applied Maths? People said AI is for improving our lives by enhancing productivity. Why Pure Maths, then? Does Pure Maths really guarantee a bigger noise?

@fl4bbergasted @AndreaInOregon @evenevertheless is 0/17 good enough for you?

@AndreaInOregon @evenevertheless you will get results that look something like this:

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

@AndreaInOregon @evenevertheless I recommend taking your favorite LLM, asking it for a list of the most famous random matrix theory and SDE researchers, and whether they would be classified as pure or applied mathematicians under the general norms of academic mathematics.

I’ve seen enough. Dems are winning the Senate.

‘Glee’ is officially coming back after Disney+ and Hulu handed the reboot a series order.

The move has been on the cards for some time with co-creator Ryan Murphy discussing its potential return.

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

@evenevertheless this is basically my point! Random matrices, nonsmooth analysis, SDEs, asymptotic geometry are pure math, compressed sensing is applied stats or EECS, etc. they are pretty unambiguously *not* applied math.

@brianluidog this is like an immutable law of the universe, was equally true for karate/taekwondo/etc

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

@RefinedLurk yup, exactly

[internet poster @PosterInternet]

@touran0_0 yes this is a specific criticism of what remains in “applied math” within math departments, not of “math with applications”
