    Mollie Tibbetts family is really amazing. I hate that they're going through the loss of this young woman, but also having to deal with this ugly political convo, but they're doing it with grace.

    If you haven't followed, the West Virginia GOP has conducted a coup against their state's judiciary. Impeached their entire state Supreme Court at once, then the very pols who led impeachment were appointed to the Court, flipping partisan control

    GOP governor names GOP House speaker and GOP congressman temporary justices for W. Va. Supreme Court (replacing 2 Dems who resigned). Three remaining justices under impeachment.

    This is weird; despite being vegan & commuting 95% by bike and public transit for almost 20 years, the air is lung-searing poison for me too. It's almost like individual market choice environmentalism doesn't do shit

    what tanked john edwards again?

    I feel like “turns out the president had a child with his housekeeper and paid off the doorman to keep quiet so he could woo evangelicals” would be a pretty major scandal in any other administration

    So much talk about the upcoming election is speculative, or based on polling, but in central Ohio we can point to votes! The guy in a safe Republican seat came so close to winning it required a recount. We should give lots of money to the women in more competitive races next door

    In theory, you can program anything in lambda calculus. But in practice, it might take a LOT of code to do the simplest task. Example: fizz buzz in lambda calculus.

    Oh, wow. Wow especially since in Germany, Facebook has been forced, through fines, to hire many moderators to respond to hate speech. If this finding holds, imagine the effect around in places Facebook has been terribly understaffed and unresponsive for years—Burma, Sri Lanka...
