I had my computational astrophysics attach chat logs if they used AI and I have to say I got tremendous joy from a couple of them where at one point a student told GPT "this seems more complicated than what my professor was doing" and then GPT course corrected to giving more helpful advice

Sometimes there's even a helicopter involved!

I want some goddamn accountability for my friend and colleague who is gone now because these dumbasses just want to cosplay running the FBI with aviator sunglasses and jackets. I can't even put into words the raw rage I feel that Nuno is gone because of these shitheads losing the shooter after Brown

My friend and colleague is dead because these dumbasses want to wear aviator sunglasses and an FBI jacket and I and the rest of my colleagues just have to live with the fact that Nuno is gone because the shooter was running around New England 48+ hours after Brown.

The other thing that doesn't help on the job market front is my friends and colleagues who are doing the faculty shuffle to get out of certain states. I've been fortunate enough to get a couple interviews, but have lost to folks I know who are already faculty and just trying to move

I'm still grappling with the fact that I'll never see Nuno again at plasma physics conferences. The level of incandescent rage I feel at the FBI for not catching this guy before he killed Nuno is indescribable. My shock at him being gone has been replaced by a truly bottomless anger. I'm furious

As someone still reeling from Nuno's death and grappling with the fact that I'll never see him at plasma physics conferences anymore, I cannot even imagine these things being connected. I and the rest of my colleagues will miss Nuno terribly and the idea these are connected..? Just seems insane

I saw folks posting about the "connection" right after this happened connecting dots on a map since obviously MIT and Brown are not far from each other, and I just thought it was nonsense along with every other conspiracy theory. The fact that they're investigating this connection is crazy to me

As someone still reeling from Nuno's killing and very much grappling with the fact that I won't see him at plasma physics conferences anymore, the level of incandescent rage I would feel if this was the same shooter and authorities were so incompetent they couldn't get him is indescribable

This is total speculation on my part (and the part of the internet) but Alex Horne has said in multiple interviews out of every season of Taskmaster he would work with anyone again except one specific person and the rumor has always been it's Howard because Horne has been saying this since series 6
