Portland enacts emergency powers of nudity to check federal overreach.

Hey 3d printing people. Any idea what causes this kind of misalignment in a 3d print? It didnt rotate on the base during the print, the print just screwed up. Could it be the slicing software that messed up?

If you use any of my How LLMs Work blog posts in your classes, could you please let me know. I'm applying for a thing 🙏. The Intuition Behind How Large Language Models Work medium.com/@mark-riedl/... A Very Gentle Introduction to Large Language Models without the Hype medium.com/@mark-riedl/...

Congrats to Moldova!!! Russia threw everything to destabilize the election and failed spectacularly. Democracy won 🙌🏼

Cancel most of your streaming services. Keep 1 or 2 at a time and rotate them out every few months to see the stuff you want to see, even if it's later on. Rent DVDs from libraries. Use the money you save to buy more physical media and go out to dinner at locally owned restaurants with your friends.

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek in Portland: "I will not be approving utilization of the Oregon national Guard. The President does not have the authority to deploy federal troops on State soil."

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

how do you constrain equations for monotonicity within a given interval? f'(x)>0 for {0≤x≤1} would be the constraint, but idk how to apply it in practice I usually solve by substitution, but this seems like a trickier optimization problem

This only happens to you once

Our shop vac hasnt been as powerful as it was in times past, so I opened it up, pulled apart the motor, everything was looking good and it was running strong. I put it back together, turned it on, still very low power. Well, I popped off the hose and look at this. (Xmas tree)

Quartet ✅ Quartet might be the best retro-inspired indie RPG I've played. With its compelling writing, fantastic OST, excellent pacing structurally inspired by FFVI, and combat taking the best from FFX, Quartet is a great tribute to older RPGs but most importantly is great at doing its own things.

C++ programmers, how would you call a dll function if you only knew the function parameters / types at runtime? like if the function params were specified in a json file, with the values given by the user.

My wife found this in the dryer and asked me and my son what it was. I thought "weird, its iron from a periodic table that was wrong. Iron is 26, not 25!" Anyways, it turns out to be a wheel weight to balance tires.

Monday I'm pulled from a hat Tuesday Wednesday sawed in half Thursday knives were thrown at me Friday im a dove

This would be a beautiful oil painting. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

Rarely are the corruption documents made public by the perpetrators.

Nobody, and I emphasize, nobody should go to the US. If you're games industry, I promise you that there are better events everywhere else.

Giorgia Meloni, Italy's PM, is a far right fascist who supports Israel, but the general strike Italians carried out 2 days ago scared the shit out of her. Strikes are the most effective way to get politicians to do what you want them to do. Shut down profit and they stand to attention.

it got worse... #totoddities

Today I saw a republican say the alphabet was for retards. No notes.

my mom took tylenol when she was pregnant, which made me super focused on menswear and now i have a million followers on twitter

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

Let's measure age not in years, but by what your velocity would be if you integrated acceleration from gravity since your birth.

Ingraham: They said you took $50,000 in cash in a bag from an undercover FBI agent… Homan: I did nothing criminal or illegal.

Remember how the voting machine people sued the fuck out of half the Trump administration and won millions? I would expect Kenvue, who make Tylenol, to instantly file a bajillion lawsuits. Especially as DJT isn't saying acetaminophen (or paracetamol) - he's specifically using the brand name.

Venture into the deepest depths of the Grey Labyrinth as secrets are revealed and Beatrix's journey comes to a climax. The fate of Rainbow Island is in your hands! Slime Rancher 2's full release, A Hero in Time (v1.0), will drop September 23 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.

Prepare yourselves, Ranchers.

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

New: Sarah MacLachlan, Jewel, and more musicians scheduled to perform at tonight's premiere for Hulu's ABC News doc LILITH FAIR have all pulled out after Disney scrapped the red carpet. First notable talent consequence of the Jimmy Kimmel situation.

It think jt would be neat to be able to do differentiable rendering. I worry though that it isnt a solved enough problem, and id be wasting my time learning half cocked ideas that dont actually work that well yet. Anyone know much about it?

Differentiable rendering has transformed graphics and 3D vision, but what about other fields? Our SIGGRAPH 2025 introduces misuka, the first fully-differentiable path tracer for acoustics.

BREAKING: The U.K., Canada and Australia officially recognize a Palestinian state, a significant shift away from alignment with the U.S.

99% funded!!! Who will make us reach 100%???

The termination letter The Washington Post sent to @karenattiah.bsky.social is insane. They’re claiming that white men are a protected marginalized group
