“The choices are not between execution and permission”
Acting as judge, jury, and executioner against civilian vessels would lead to war crimes charges with nearly any other country’s leader.

Looking for a job? Know someone who is? TPSE has a half-time admin spot open. It's fully remote, pretty flexible, includes BENEFITS - and you'd get to work with a fun bunch of math people.
Circulate widely - esp. to any of the 100's of dedicated former fed workers.

It's a cold case. The syllabus contains a full, detailed confession, but no one noticed for five years ... until it was sent to the provost for review under the new state-mandated gen ed assessment process. It passed the initial review phase because the learning outcomes are fine.
I would read an academic murder book in which the murder was solved by reading the syllabus
I love this idea and also want a list of academic murder books. Please reply with recs

I thought the worst thing about it was the ridiculous hyper-airbrushed texture we’ve come to expect from this nonsense technology and then I saw the actual full ad and apparently this fake woman made of environmental ruin and stolen art is about eight feet tall

The tone here is directed at myself, who didn't think of this the right way around until this instant, even though I "understood" Simpson's paradox.
If you slice a long thin baguette into thin slices, then each of the bits will be taller than they are wide even though the original is wider than it is tall. This incredibly obvious bit of geometry is incredibly obvious unless you're doing statistics, in that case it's called Simpson's paradox.

This is what true leadership looks like. You lead with compassion & empathy. You comfort & heal.
Not the hateful BS happening right now.
I miss Biden’s leadership. He wasn’t perfect, but he is a good man & a true leader.
These pics don’t fit their narrative of him being unfit.

While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.

I think this puzzle from MAA Wisconsin was one of the best gifts ever. It took me a bit to get the hang of it, and I don’t know the Mathematics of why every date is possible, but it’s fun.
