@natstann Honk. Honk. See you there!

@TCBettini I'm saying that the possibility warrants investigation. Whether or not confiscated masks were re-sold, it is breathtaking to me that money from the Wall fraud was transferred to a company that might have been a PPE scam. These folks don't seem to miss any crooked opportunity.

@washingtonpost @nytimes @maggieNYT @PhilipRucker Reading through Bannon's indictment, and the list of accounts (34i) holding the fake charity money is curious. One of the account holders is an organization called America First Medical. That's odd (continued)

It's worth noting that some mask shipments were confiscated by Trump during the height of the epidemic confusion. You can imagine fraudulent dots to connect. Here's a link to the story on America First Medical, from March. https://t.co/B8q81c7sqc

The company is headed by Kolfage, indicted with Bannon,
The mask broker industry is the wild west. Some in it sell counterfeit masks. Some compete with states and hospitals that need masks, causing short supplies and amp'd up prices. (continued)

The mask broker industry is the wild west. Some in it sell counterfeit, knock-off masks. Some resell masks whose source is unknown. Some compete with states and hospitals who are legitimately going to use the masks, causing short supplies and amp'd up prices. (continued)

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

The company, America First Medical, claimed to have access to tons of masks, which they would re-sell at large scale for a "small" profit. The company is headed by Kolfage, who was indicted for the Build The Wall fraud (continued).

@manvillehoya Boy, MSNBC really doesn't want to acknowledge Warren.

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

Stunning and mind blowing. Perhaps you'll finally understand and value federal funding for scientific research and the value of having robust scientific programs in the govt? Nah, just ask for help on twitter.

Has the Johns Hopkins map of the coronavirus stopped working for other people, or just me? https://t.co/36uda8fm6P

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

@manvillehoya The comment infuriated me when I saw it.

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

@manvillehoya You don't remember canvassing with the invisible woman and cashing her invisible checks?

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

@manvillehoya Yup. And so much rage. "It's a nice place to live because there are no Dems?" Whoa...

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

@manvillehoya Omg. I wish I didn't look. Lost faith in humanity.

Great thread on how to improve tsne output!

[Dmitry Kobak @hippopedoid]

"The art of using t-SNE for single-cell transcriptomics" by @CellTypist and myself was published two weeks ago: https://t.co/1hOsc40YgW. This is a thread about the initialisation, the learning rate, and the exaggeration in t-SNE. I'll use MNIST to illustrate. (1/16)

[Pratip Chattopadhyay @pratweetc]

Well, so much for that rule of thumb (i.e., UMAP is "better" than tSNE).

[Natalie Stanley @natstann]

more evidence that you should not be losing sleep over tSNE vs. UMAP. Initialization is always one of the most important things. ;). You should instead be losing sleep over what you are planning to do with your tSNE/UMAP. 😃 https://t.co/MoBQDpSTeW

@manvillehoya Exactly! He's surprised that the disinformation campaign started decades ago worked?!? He's surprised that his wife is effective in her encouragement of alternate facts?!?! Come on.
