I've done interesting things, known fabulous people, been to exotic places; but now I'm married with children & prefer it immensely.

@Tesla Buyer beware, if you want to buy a @Tesla cybertruck and this happens while off pavement, you’re SOL, they won’t help.

@Tesla need your help. Got a flat on a gravel country road and Customer Support told me to call AAA…do better.

@Tesla Hello @Tesla?!?

Former Washington Governor @JayInslee wanted to be seen as a climate savior – all so he could use it as a platform for a presidential campaign where he got 1% in the polls. He might be gone, but you're still paying the price for his bogus clean energy goals.

Wow. Nigerian Christians DEFIANT in the face of the mass slaughter by Islamists forcing them to convert or die. They will rather pick death than bow.

“We will never submit to Islam”
“Allah is a demon”

The media is refuses to cover the atrocities going on against Christians.

The left completely dismisses this & some even on the right are embarrassing Islam & refuse to speak up about what’s happening to our fellow brothers & sisters in Nigeria.

It’s up to us to Share these stories & pray for the Nigerian Christians

[AshleY @Aku_700]

Christians are being hunted like animals in Nigeria.

An Islamist group invaded a Christian village and started shooting everyone in sight.

They are killing Christians on Eid and offering them as human sacrifices.

The media remains silent.

🚨 WOW —Tumors literally liquefied by sound waves. No scalpel. No chemo. No radiation. None of those horrible side effects.

This is histotripsy: focused ultrasound blasts destroy cancer cells mechanically in minutes, sparing healthy tissue completely.

This is insane

We don’t live in a democracy if our elected leaders fail to implement the will of the people

This forgotten mouse experiment is now more relatable than ever.

The math on this project should mass-humble every AI lab on the planet.

1 cubic millimeter. One-millionth of a human brain. Harvard and Google spent 10 years mapping it. The imaging alone took 326 days. They sliced the tissue into 5,000 wafers each 30 nanometers thick, ran them through a $6 million electron microscope, then needed Google’s ML models to stitch the 3D reconstruction because no human team could process the output.

The result: 57,000 cells, 150 million synapses, 230 millimeters of blood vessels, compressed into 1.4 petabytes of raw data. For context, 1.4 petabytes is roughly 1.4 million gigabytes. From a speck smaller than a grain of rice.

Now scale that. The full human brain is one million times larger. Mapping the whole thing at this resolution would produce approximately 1.4 zettabytes of data. That’s roughly equal to all the data generated on Earth in a single year. The storage alone would cost an estimated $50 billion and require a 140-acre data center, which would make it the largest on the planet.

And they found things textbooks don’t contain. One neuron had over 5,000 connection points. Some axons had coiled themselves into tight whorls for completely unknown reasons. Pairs of cell clusters grew in mirror images of each other. Jeff Lichtman, the Harvard lead, said there’s “a chasm between what we already know and what we need to know.”

This is why the next step isn’t a human brain. It’s a mouse hippocampus, 10 cubic millimeters, over the next five years. Because even a mouse brain is 1,000x larger than what they just mapped, and the full mouse connectome is the proof of concept before anyone attempts the human one.

We’re building AI systems that loosely mimic neural networks while still unable to fully read the wiring diagram of a single cubic millimeter of the thing we’re trying to imitate. The original is 1.4 petabytes per millionth of its volume. Every AI model on Earth fits in a fraction of that.

The brain runs on 20 watts and fits in your skull. The data center required to merely describe one-millionth of it would span 140 acres.

Bill Mahrer lives the 1st Amendment better than anyone...thank you @billmaher

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

Bill Maher: “If you don’t know what’s going on in Nigeria, your media sources suck. You are in a bubble. And again I’m not a Christian, but they are systematically killing the Christians in Nigeria.”

Sam Darnold lost money on Sunday?? Boomer says the NFLPA should shut down any future Super Bowls in California:

We collected this fentanyl foil handed out by @KCPubHealth in a matter of minutes at a West Seattle park today. The foil was used to smoke lethal fentanyl and discarded in the park. It should be unlawful to hand out foil by the county and use fatal drugs in our parks. @MayorofSeattle @wilsonformayor @CMSaraNelson

Abigail Shrier: "The number one symptom of depression is rumination, pathologically obsessing over your pain. Getting out of your house and accomplishing anything is good for you, sitting around, talking and thinking about your problems is a bad habit."

Very cool ;)
