“It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.”
- Harry Truman
As Trump proves often, the reverse of this is also true.
It’s amazing how much you can fuck things up when the only thing you care about is getting the credit.

Can you share what you are working on in particular? I am genuinely interested.
Should be part of his next test.
Thanks for taking the time to answer. I totally agree with all your points. Callable interfaces always felt off for me but never truly stopped to reflect why. You systematically answered to all my doubts.(I also suspect that having many small callable objects might not be great performance-wise.)
Can I ask you what are the other reasons? I am genuinely interested.
This is a great article. I strongly recommend you to read it.

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
The idea that the President of the United States could publish an image of himself as the Messiah and no news outlet covers it is the biggest indictment of the American free press.
Send him to Moscow.
JD Vance is on a historic roll:
He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose.
Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses.
Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably.
Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.
Oh my god.
ok NOW i bet Zelenskyy will thank JD Vance
J.D. Vance as Death going down a series of doors marked Pope Francis, Iran negotiations, Viktor Orban’s re-election and U.S. midterms.

THIS SUMS IT UP AS WELL AS ANYONE CAN:
A WHOLE CIVILIZATION WILL DIE TONIGHT My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools. Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's "keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's "we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight." It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before. "It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time. A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead. @michaelfdubois Mukad A QuBoy @michacifdubois

The Art of the Deal
A political cartoon-style meme featuring stylized maps with faces drawn on them. At the bottom is a map of the United States patterned with the American flag. It has a highly distressed face with crossed-out eyes and is depicted using two cartoon arms to repeatedly stab itself with knives, surrounded by pools of cartoon blood. Above the US, looking down at the self-stabbing, are two larger maps: on the top left is a solid red map of China with a shocked and concerned expression, and on the top right is a blue map of Europe (featuring EU stars) with a blank, wide-eyed stare. Between China and Europe sits a tiny, battered-looking map of Russia.
The US right now.
we got here because a lot of really terrible people decided that the most important thing in the world was hurting anyone not like them

The best explanation why millions of Americans worship and support a convicted felon and sexual predator...
The internet wasn't a mistake.
It saved lives. It's allowed community. It's one of the best advancements in modern history for information.
The mistake was normalizing rampant cruelty and dunk culture and protecting predators and harassers over victims.
Why not going for Pratchett's The Night Watch, then? Or Small Gods?
Because we have gotten so much “Operation Market Khargen” or “Operation Kharg Garden” discourse (depending on who you ask), I felt compelled to defend the honor of Market Garden, Bernard Montgomery, and our glorious airborne brethren. My latest⬇️
To be honest, as an Italian I really can't complain. We are doing pretty well in many sports (tennis, volleyball, even baseball!) right now and consistently outperform at the Olympics. Much, much better than when we used to be good only at football.
Thanks! Will think about it!
Yes. I wrote a C extension that uses OpenBLAS to implement 2D convolution using im2col+GEMM+col2im. How would you write such an extension in a performance focused way that is compatible with both MRI and JRuby? Without duplicating the code, I mean.
