Dartmouth College's provost, Santiago Schnell, will face a no-confidence vote at a November 9 faculty meeting. This comes after Dartmouth's student newspaper found that Schnell had used AI in his academic and editorial writing. https://chroni.cl/3UPSoFN

After much research I have perfected the theory of "AI as the One Ring". All AI techbros consistently fall under: - Knows it's bad, thinks they're just built different - Thinks it's inevitable and switches sides w/ no morals - Thinks it's his magic girlfriend - Evil CEO ruling over the rest of them

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

I just analyzed 1.9M recipes and can now report that the yummy simplicial complex is arguably *not* flag. The following flavor trios have far fewer recipes containing all three ingredients than the recipes with pairs of ingredients would predict.

An open problem in culinary mathematics: Consider the 𝑦𝑢𝑚𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑥 Y on vertex set I = {ingredients} where σ∈Y iff the ingredients in σ appear in a single good recipe. Question: Is Y a flag simplicial complex? (A complex Y is 𝑓𝑙𝑎𝑔 when σ∈Y iff {x,y}∈Y for all x,y∈σ.)

What does it say about my neurotype that the hideous-looking "Liberty Biberty" doesn't bother me bc it has a normal-guy speaking voice 🤔

Going on record to say (white) Evangelicals will support GOP in higher numbers than ever next Tuesday, making it clear that the Venn diagram of (white) Evangelicals and remaining MAGA voters is increasingly looking like a circle.

The soaring costs of public universities is a political decision. When these schools predominantly served white students, they tended to be free (UC, CCNY, etc.) But as the number of students of color has increased, funding for the public universities has decreased. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/b...

In MAGA, parental estrangement is a big issue — and parents are held out as blameless victims. I suspect that's one reason why Vivek Ramaswamy ran an ad celebrating Amy Acton's vile mother. And why MAGA — including Vance and Trump — are backing him. www.salon.com/2026/10/23/r...
