another buried lede in here for everyone who lost their shit over moot’s appearance yesterday:

peter thiel allegedly kept weev on retainer as his personal hacker
⚠️ Vincenzo lozzo is a BlackHat review board member and former director at CrowdStrike who became an FBI informant in 2017 and was reportedly Jeffrey Epstein’s personal hacker.

He told the FBI that Epstein was Vladimir Putin’s wealth manager.

how delightfully edgy. an email from peggy siegal, a bit from her nyt profile, and a story about her role in all of this www.thedailybeast.com/how-the-epst...

it's interesting that Epstein seems not to speak or indicate understanding any language other than English. no foreign phrases, no references to non-english-language media, etc. no obvious military or intelligence jargon.

"Dear Jeffrey Epstein, I really enjoyed going to your island with Michael Vassar, ex-President of MIRI, who has definitely been to the island.

Just in case you forgot, Michael Vassar has definitely visited your island before.

XOXO, thank you for everything"
Did you see Michael Vassar met Epstein on the island?

interestingly if you search the files for "mike hopkins" you can see that epstein had a real jones to meet him, because of his reputation as a leader in algebraic topology, and can see hopkins having a lot of "scheduling problems," seemingly really not wanting to meet him.

this seems in fact to be one of their favourite things to talk about
My favorite genre of Epstein emails are powerful people emailing WITH JEFFREY EPSTEIN about how MeToo has gone too far and the woke mob must be stopped.

people are underselling the role of Misha Gromov as a fixer for Epstein, someone who helps him extend his network of influence by softening his reputation and making high profile introductions. Perhaps non-mathematicians won't know these names but this is not a small thing

It really just goes to show, that for any iid random variables X_i with mean zero and variance one and not having heavy tails, as guaranteed by the presence of higher moments, 1/sqrt(n) (X_ + … + X_n) is going to look a LOT like a bell when n is large… sometimes even if they aren’t iid….
Forgive me, Jesus, because I genuinely deeply enjoy how perpetually unhappy and desolate these losers are.

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

in reactionary centrism, “everything is always backlash, never a self-generated political project. As a result, it takes a while to wake up to the reality that, for instance, Stephen Miller’s ethnic cleansing project is self-generated…”

it would be kind of cool if I had "smart glasses" leveraging this technology that made everybody look exactly the same, specifically like Kevin Kline in the eighties. I feel it might make me fairer to people, and a bit more interested in what they say.

some will say this technology is worthless or creepy, but it does at least slightly increase the chances that we get to see a benjamin button sequel or I guess prequel, if that's something that for some reason you want to see
