Oh, it's just incredible and effortless how Kristen Stewart dismantles and diagnoses the pathology and ego of Brando (and... well, all the dudes in Hollywood) here. www.youtube.com/shorts/_h-iK... There's just so many parallels to tech in this. And I'm so glad she's solid in herself to just SAY it.

Dust of Snow, by Robert Frost The way a crow Shook down on me The dust of snow From a hemlock tree Has given my heart A change of mood And saved some part Of a day I had rued.

In London for a couple of days, staying near the touristy, but rather historic Trafalgar Square. A fitting poem, apparently on display in the (quintessentially London) Underground. #poetry

Sigh, #Arsenal really not looking very good, leave alone a league-winning team.

Ich hoffe auf einen Sieg für #Arsenal!

This is a nicely detailed explanation! But when people express frustration with low-D dynamics, I think it is exactly what you say this paper disproves: the notion that variance explained is a proxy for the important parts of neural computation

Pochettino warns the #USMNT to "suffer against Bielsa". And boy how they are suffering 🤣!

Does this Uruguay team want to play at all? Is watercooler-squatting Bielsa overrated? Anyway, this is amazing from and for the #USMNT!

Aaronson should be used as a demonstration in physics lab courses on unstable equilibrium - he is on the verge of falling over on every freaking run he makes #USMNT

Wow!! I was internally whining about Trossard, and what a finish!!! #Arsenal

That finish by Saka was much more difficult and amazing than the freaking NBC commentators are letting on in their Sunderland worship. Go #Arsenal!

It's mystifying why #Arsenal have gotten so poor at open play. With the likes of Eze, Saka, Trossard, Rice and Zubimendi, they should be cutting through the staunchest defense. While I'm happy about set piece successes, I think critics do have a point about reaching a ceiling there & becoming dull.

Brentford might well be the most likeable team other than your regular one in the Premier League.

It's such a joy to see both Enzos lose at #Chelsea - such unlikeable characters (starting with the Argentinian racist celebration and the excuses following).
