"As South Carolina tries to contain its measles outbreak, public health officials across the nation are concerned that the highly contagious virus is making a major comeback. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has tallied more than 1,700 measles cases and 45 outbreaks in 2025. The largest started in Texas, where hundreds of people were infected and two children died."

Imagine being so hung up on petty details like "who did it first" that you misunderstand simple statements, and then you use those misunderstandings to fuel your claim that Wikipedia hallucinates more than ChatGPT does.

Sheesh.

A sub-field of science looks at whether the Atlantic ocean circulation #AMOC has weakened. Direct measurements suggest yes but only started in 2004. So people look at temperature and salinity data.
A new study finds a robust slowdown fingerprint at 1000–2000 m depth.

Running my NPM checks again today, I see eight remaining infected packages still circulating on the Microsoft owned platform.

Unlike nodejs package index https://socket.dev NPM does not show ANY security warnings on these package's pages.

It's pretty wild that these known compromised packages have been circulating for four days now with now response or action from Microsoft despite it being one of the largest security stories this month.

Black Friday Reminder: The victim of a Republican war on immigrants was granted asylum by a Republican, got his hands on guns the Republicans make available, and shot two people carrying out illegal orders by a Republican. That is the real narrative.

WOW. This was an outstanding episode of Veritasium on the Power Law probability distributions (i.e. probability distributions described by an *exponential* relationship between the variables). I never realized these types of probability distributions are so common, and that they behave in such similar ways to each other.

Even more bizarrely to me, there appear to be many systems in nature that *spontaneously* organize themselves in a way to exhibit Power Law probability distributions. In fact, I suspect that “black swan” events are possibly a symptom of mistakenly perceiving a Power Law distribution phenomenon as one exhibiting a Normal or even Log-Normal distribution.

Hey you know what’s super easy to say? White supremacy is bad. Anyone who espouses white supremacy is a bad person. Any company that endorses white supremacists is a bad company.

Dear white people specifically: why the fuck is this so hard for you?
