Crush Depth is out today! It's a deep-sea technothriller - think The Hunt for Red October meets Jurassic Park. I've been working on it for a while and I'm incredibly proud of the result. Go check it out! amazon.com/Crush-Depth-Techn…

Closed form 3 body problem when – at Stone Ridge, VA
openai casually announcing that its ai system has disproved the exponential time hypothesis is fucking absurd. eth has been a foundational assumption in theoretical computer science for decades. hundreds of papers have relied on it to establish conditional hardness results. and now an internal ai model has reportedly produced a lean-verified refutation.

As an avid 94WIP (I remember when it was 610 on AM!) and 97.5 The Fanatic listener this is not an exaggeration - the callers really are like that, and for every sport not just the Eagles. – at South Riding, VA
Replying to @varadmehta
This is basically like listening to Philly sports radio. Half the callers think the Eagles are winning the Super Bowl, the other half expects some sort of disaster that'll go backwards in time and erase the two Super Bowl wins from existence. And that was a random day in August.

I fucked up and talked to the negotiator on the phone long enough for them to box me in. They have dogs so I'm probably done for.

I think I'll spend the rest of the year getting Starfield achievements? MW4 MP looks awful and there's nothing else coming out I'm interested in (I'm not a GTA guy).

Gripen: A Smarter Flight Plan for Canada's Defense - In the last couple of days, Saab announced an incredible surge in global demand that proves why the Gripen fighter jet is rapidly becoming a favorite for modern militaries. Their new order bookings skyrocketed massively compared to last year, driven heavily by a major contract to deploy Gripen E jets directly to Ukraine. On top of that, their overall corporate sales saw an impressive jump, easily beating the financial forecasts predicted by experts. This outstanding growth shows that countries around the world are putting their ultimate trust in this tough, reliable aircraft. Canada is on board to realize that the rugged Gripen makes PERFECT sense as our primary daily fleet. While some military supporters lean toward the F-35, using such an expensive jet for routine Arctic patrols is simply impractical. It is a much wiser strategy to deploy the reliable Gripen as our everyday workhorse because it can easily handle harsh weather and rough northern runways. We can keep the F-35s in the background for rare, allied missions if needed, though much of these jets, for many now, are untrustworthy because of software being controlled by the Americans regardless of what is being said otherwise. This new approach gives OUR pilots the perfect tools for any situation while saving a fortune for Canadian taxpayers. 🇨🇦 #canpoli #cdnpoly #Canada #MAGA #TCOT #Trump
