Weekend mood.
One of the very best performers and musicians alive. *The* very best in my books.

On a different note: Isn't it fascinating how said problem already existed in math since when?... ever! It just was pointed out to us mortals some 40 years ago.
The same applies to the solution now, which doesn't belittle its achievement.
If this isn't fascinating and jaw-dropping, I don't know what is.
I admit, I'm not half the brain that Susanna is (in regard to both her math and knitting skills), so I really appreciate how she's making an effort to explain her domain expertise to us laypersons.
Cutting costs by radically and imprudently downsizing branches of the government might seem efficient in normal times.
However, it will certainly look incredibly stupid when the next national crisis emerges. Incredibly stupid.
Not sure if I understand you correctly. Are you afraid of your perfectionism stalling you?
What helps me is going in increments. I can't get things perfect, but I can make things a bit more perfect every time I work on them. Improvement motivates me, not perfection.
Jess is right. We have enough viable alternatives. No one needs X. Twitter's dead. It died the moment Musk took over.
I also call on all European and (especially) German official institutions to stop relying on non-European big tech. It's a risk we can no longer afford.
Perfectly reasonable ๐๐ป Fight fascism, fight it everywhere, and fight it the way you deem fit.

Every billionaire is a potential threat to democracy and society because of the mere power their wealth affords them.
This world doesn't need billionaires. This world needs democracies that are strengthened against the corrosive influence of the filthy lucre.
AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.
I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldnโt go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense
I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...
๐ช๐บ We will defend our Europe against all enemies -- political, economic, ideological. We Europeans know and cherish what we have. We are blessed to be Europeans.
Funny how China demands respect for its state of law while upholding capital punishment.
Let me say it clearly: A "state of law" that resorts to capital punishment is, by definition, not a state of law proper. It is still a tyranny.
Okay, folks, I'm here now ๐๐ป. For better or worse, we'll have to get along now ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ...
So, let's establish some parameters: I'm more than happy to agree to disagree with you should you stray off the track of reason.
You have been warned. Let's do this ๐๐ป
