I always round up the price when I see $X.99 but my grandmother always rounds it down and it pisses me off

They’re trying to fool you! Don’t be a sheep!!!

I was actually wondering how the gender gap changed in this election, and it wasn’t at all what I was expecting:

According to exit polls by CNN Trump gained +2% of the male vote, and +5% of the female vote compared to 2020 - though women were still more likely to support Harris, of course.

An analysis by the AP found similar results, with the support from men under 45 increasing +7%, and women under 45 +6%, while for older men it decreased -1%, and for older women stayed the same.

Surprisingly, Trump’s support among racial minority groups increased while white and older Americans increased support for Harris.

After thorough analysis and much thought I have ultimately concluded that I have absolutely no fucking clue what is going on with American politics.

I would like to propose some changes to that title:

Microsoft CEO’s pay rises 63% to $79m, despite [because of] devastating year for layoffs: 2550 jobs lost [employees were fired by their greedy CEO] in 2024 [because he wanted more money]

Conservatives have already said that they want to inspect children’s genitals, so it’s only a matter of time until they start saying that they want to regularly inspect women’s genitals as well to “protect unborn children” (read: control women and fulfill their sick fetish)

Just don’t ask them what they were doing between 1933 and 1945

It was pretty popular and cool on Reddit. Hoping it gets some more love here too.

I second the Nerts recommendation because when I was a teen I played Ligretto (Basically just a branded Nerts) at one party and we all had a blast. To this day I wish I had the opportunity to play it again, but I’m not a party guy nor do I have that many decks of cards so /shrug

I really hope someone actually makes this into a shirt like they did with the “priDEMONth” thing just to piss off conservatives lol

But Biden is shaking his fist very angrily! That has to count for something! /s

Recently I’ve actually been wondering how the hell researchers manage their citations for big projects, because a while back I started doing some research on the Cass Review, tripped on my own dick and accidentally ended up with 70-something disorganized citations (that I actually used) that were a pain in the ass to clean up.

I’m definitely checking out those first three software lol

Did the xLSTM end up going nowhere? I thought it looked pretty sexy.

The Shovel? That just sounds like bullying bait, but I have seen a kid named Megatron, and that is indeed a badass name.

idk this just popped into my head and it made me chuckle

I remember when scientists were more focused on making AI models smaller and more efficient, and research on generative models was focused on making GANs as robust as possible with very little compute and data.

Now that big companies and rich investors saw the potential for profit in AI the paradigm has shifted to “throw more compute at the wall until something sticks”, so it’s not surprising it’s affecting carbon emissions.

Besides that it’s also annoying that most of the time they keep their AIs behind closed doors, and even in the few cases where the weights are released publicly these models are so big that they aren’t usable for the vast majority of people, as sometimes even Kaggle can’t handle them.

Kinda ironic I saw this post right after this other one lol: Three Democrats Re-Introduce Bill That Would Bring Ranked Choice Voting to Congressional Elections Across America

*laughs in LibreOffice*

I don’t like that it insists on resetting to that Liberation font half the time I make a new line though
