@its_adamneely It feels lonely when speeding up means replacing someone else's expertise.

Then again, cheap and fast can be a style choice.

If you're upset about Jimmy Kimmel being "canceled," I'm sure you were just as furious when you heard about Joy Reid
and Tiffany Cross
or Amber Ruffin
or Karen Attiah
or Jemele Hill

Because Kimmel might still have a job if you were https://t.co/TsXeU4KzYN

Truly incredible thread by a global security editor at Politico.

@DrNeilStone This is a weird argument to make in 2025. Why pose it instead of saying, "you're no longer in lockdown for fear you will lose your grandmother because of vaccines."

[Tim @timteachesmath]

@nbrink77 @luckytran How does this argument work? More 'horrors' are what's needed to sway antivaxxers? These people didn't lose someone in their lives 2020-2022?

[Tim @timteachesmath]

@luckytran Your 2020 was pleasant? Wtf

[Tim @timteachesmath]

@stanveuger Good point. Is that total on a website though? The opposition party is sitting idle.

@edimovaz @OhItsRyan You should hire off merit, not systematically excluding members of underrepresented groups.

Neat Google Sheets bug:

The formula =combin(32,16) appears fine, and =int(combin(32,16))=combin(32,16) evaluates to TRUE, but =601080390-combin(32,16) evaluates to -0.0000002384185791 and =int(601080390-combin(32,16))=601080390-combin(32,16) evaluates to FALSE.

Made a new arithmetic sequence puzzle for my students to try out.

Can you complete the "crossword puzzle" so that each entry is an arithmetic sequence?

This is genuinely the most dispiriting result of the night. The cops let your kids be slaughtered, the Republican government gave them a full-throated defense, and you rewarded them with even greater support. How do you look at yourself after that?

@smalls2672 I assume they could purchase twitter. That would be neat.

Vaccines account for 40% of the decline in infant mortality over the last 50 years.

Infant mortality rates have plummeted over the last 50 years. Globally, they’ve fallen by over two-thirds, from around 10% in 1974 to less than 3% today.

A recent study — published in The Lancet by Andrew Shattock and an international team of researchers — estimates that 40% of this decline has been driven by increased access to crucial vaccines.

The chart shows the actual reduction in infant mortality rates with vaccination (in blue) and the researchers’ estimates for a hypothetical scenario in which vaccines wouldn’t have been rolled out (in red).

Based on these figures, vaccines are estimated to have saved 150 million children over the last 50 years.

@DrKChilds This is a fine rule. But experimentation happens on certain kids.

@ShanaVWhite Second right forearm is very long. Fourth left arm seems to be missing. Fifth right arm doesn't look like it's behind the woman next to her.

@BrentToderian Ask yourself how someone so talented could fail to present effective strategy in 2020. He tried to win a large democratic primary by running to the right of his competitors.
