Was brushing up on some math from @sirbayes book, ended up writing an instructive tensorflow regression explanation. I always thought tensorflow and pymc documentation to be very pedantic, maybe blogging the coding logic is worthwhile for beginners.

I told Congress they're killing poor kids in Gaza by buying bombs, and they're paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US. This was the authorities' response.

Hinton really said "I'm particularly proud of the fact that one of my students fired Sam Altman"

....at his Noble Prize press conference for UofT 😭

Hilarious bit from @adamconover about how crazy our private car-based transportation system is.

Yuval Harari just published a piece on Zionism in the @washingtonpost. He argues:

"Nothing in this Zionist idea implies that Jews are superior to others, whether they are Greeks or Poles — or Palestinians." @harari_yuval

A short🧵.

NYPD Lieutenant Michael Butler, well known for his lead role in countless violent crackdowns on protests, didn’t like being filmed blockading people into their private homes 2 blocks from Columbia.

He has 26 misconduct allegations and is named in at least 2 lawsuits.

If you’re outraged by peaceful protests against genocide but not the genocide itself. Then you’re the problem.

[Chris Hayes @chrislhayes]

I feel like I'm losing my mind a little: people understand that "occupying buildings on campus" is, like, one of the most common forms of studen protest for decades and not some devious new ploy devised by professional anarchist plotters, right?

In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renaming it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for three weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.

The Brain Imaging Data Structure - a widely adopted standard for organizing and describing neuroimaging data - has been the biggest achievement of my professional career. In this paper you can read about the history of the effort and the lessons we learned along the way.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

Not just the headline, this entire New York Times article on the man who just self immolated does mentioned his comments that he can no longer be complicit in genocide. Not once. It does not mention any direct connection between his action and Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
