@JayinKyiv Jay, is there any way to get a brief DM with you?

I'm looking for contacts in 🇺🇦 that might be able to direct me toward roles connected to drone dev/control.

I'm a UC Berkeley mech engineer and longtime professional data analyst wanting to help, and I'm willing to move to 🇺🇦.

@BryanSaysStuff @RichardHanania Just like he did nothing about attacking Iran.

I guess only stupid people were worried that he'd start a dumb war.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@SusanDReynolds @SFPDChiefYep @DanielLurie You DO know that crime going down 30% is not the same as crime going down 100%, right?

The facts you cite present no contradiction. There isn't a major city on Earth where you won't be able to cite someone getting arrested for something within a multi-day timeframe.

@incitafusio Union Square is right next to the Tenderloin. That's basically the singular trouble spot in the city, other than maybe Hunter's Point, which is waaay off in its own area.

Walk around Hayes Valley, NoPa, Sunset, Richmond, Marina, and many other areas and you've got no problem.

@vasilisaemperor @SenecaSpeaks21 No, I understand it perfectly, and NO it's not the SF board that bears having full-on protests. Democratic process is enough for SF.

Trump is planning to use military force to intimidate dissent. He's corrupt AF in myriad other ways. That's the stuff that calls for protests.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@Garzjoe82 @donwinslow OK *Jorge Garza*

1st, the vast bulk of the people affected by the cuts to blue districts will be US citizens, not foreigners, much less foreign criminals.

2nd, you might want to consider that you're in the demographic of "homegrowns" that might end up on a flight to Uganda.

@marcjoffe "Poor judgment"??
It's Folsom St Fair, dude. It's known and accepted in NorCal, and the pic is tame for FSF. Not an issue.

Meanwhile, Scott Wiener is one of the best, smartest, most dedicated elected officials in the country.

And YOUR best policy argument is a shirtless pic.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@MightBeBrennan @maiamindel Sure, and regular exercise isn't 100% safe either.

But you'd be insane to argue that people shouldn't prioritize regular exercise.

Your move, dumbass.

@DimaZeniuk @elonmusk Like, someone clever explain to me how you go from lines 2 to 3 without actually taking the time to expand out the polynomial a couple times while evaluating the bound (L-x) for y in between. Then I'm pretty sure line 3 is just wrong...

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@DimaZeniuk @elonmusk Dude cheated, straight up. There are huge gaps in the work being shown, and chunks of this just look like they go wrong and back to right again.

He copied someone else's work, and was LAZY in the copying.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@capitolhunters @RobarNawt The other images also show that the right image from before comes from a problem of a spinning top undergoing precession. I'll see whether the "it works!" stuff actually makes any sense now...

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@capitolhunters @RobarNawt And I found THIS link, where his work is even MORE of a mess, but he seems to come out with the right answers in the end.

https://t.co/8Jb3yle2UM

At this point, I'd bet 10:1 that he cheated his way through a bunch of his assignments by copying from other students.

[Dima Zeniuk @DimaZeniuk]

@elonmusk @minhdv82 This is amazing! Two more pages you posted on X a long time ago

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@RobarNawt @capitolhunters And he name drops CalTech and CERN on the basis of that hot load of B- state school performance.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@RobarNawt @capitolhunters And it's definitely half-assed to the point of botching the final answer on the dimensions despite getting the matrix factors correct. Which calls into question whether it might have even been hurriedly copied from someone else.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@Andr3jH Here's an example from a thread about how he lied about his Phys degree.
He straight up botches his HW in a 2nd year course. (The grader missed that the dimensions in his answer were wrong).
Years later, he brags bc he still doesn't know he got it wrong.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@RobarNawt @capitolhunters He shows 2nd year coursework done by a 3rd year student.

I can recognize the left... It's deriving the 3D inertial tensor of a flat plate on the X-Y plane with a corner at the origin.

It's lower division phys/engineering. And Musk screws up the answer (L^2 in the denominator)

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@Andr3jH I highly doubt it was ever that high. The guy was shameless and highly ambitious as his driving qualities for success ... There's no evidence of technical brilliance at any time. 130 IQ seems awfully fair.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@MrFisterthick @monarchdiaries @capitolhunters And, more importantly, ELON didn't get this stuff right, either.

[Don Quixote @ari_bronstein]

@MrFisterthick @monarchdiaries @capitolhunters That's linear mass density, fool. dm = M/L * dx.
When you integrate x^2*dx, you get an L^3 in the result that leaves you with an answer of ML^2 times a shape factor, in this case 1/12.

You are clearly a buffoon that is out of his league in this fight.
