Don’t let anyone tell you Joe Biden is not an astute political operator. Inviting Zelenskyy to the White House and an address to a joint session of Congress smothers the runts of the political litter who want to abandon Ukraine.

Biden’s leadership has been nothing short of phenomenal as he’s helped build a global coalition to assist Ukraine.

Thank you Mr President.

Both funny and epic – Koji Fujimoto calculates the actual integer values that cause the famous 26-variable prime-generating polynomial to take the value 2.

I've decided to shift my social media focus to Mastodon, and so this is my #introduction.
I lead Microsoft Research and new product/business incubations that emerge from our research projects.

I'm pleased to be here and am looking forward to this fresh start with all of you.

@SAWYNNE1 That’s a whole episode of Servant of the People right there. 😂 🇺🇦

📣 The Intercept newsroom is pleased to join you all on the fediverse to share our journalism, and to help support a decentralized platform that aims to be a better place to be. Please consider boosting this post so more readers know we’re here.

Washington Post will be creating their own instance. They will add #mastodon accounts to journalist profiles.

Institutional #journalism embracing the #fediverse is important.

This might not be obvious to current Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp users:

Meta is in trouble -- their very survival is at stake.

Their venture into the metaverse is costing them $10 billion a year -- and it's highly unlikely that it will have mass appeal any time soon.

But at some point, this entire stack of cards will come crashing down.

Actually, the tax returns of all Supreme Court justices should absolutely be made public. That should be a requirement to be one of the nine people with lifetime appointments who make final legal decisions for the rest of the country.

Wow.. I just read that pawoo has been taken over by the Mask Group that also runs mstdn.jp and mastodon.cloud 🤔

So.. they own now 3 of the largest instances

Hello! I'm an illustrator of (so far) mostly children's books and literary classics. I love art, literature, history, natural history, historical clothing, and food. 😋 I tended to post about all these things haphazardly on Twitter, and will probably continue doing so here. I work traditionally in various media and draw many things (without being able to finish any), among which, though I _am_ on a dinosaur server, palaeoart forms just one fraction. ☺️ Thank you!

1/ A few thoughts on the 'artists promoting their work' discussion: most creators you follow are not wealthy people. Writing a book does not make you rich. Being a talented painter does not make you rich. A lot of us are scrambling to pay our bills and we HATE it. We hate the hustle & posting links to storefronts. But we are also busy AF trying to survive doing 12 different jobs. If you don't like "ads" know that we hate them too - but otherwise the work doesn't get made. It's that simple.

Hi, I am a theoretical physicist working in #statisticalphysics of disordered systems, #machinelearning, #informationtheory etc.. Interested in #science, #littérature (mostly in French, but also in English and Italian), #classicalmusic. I have been working on quite a few different topics, my two books "Spin glass theory and beyond", written with G. Parisi and M.A.Virasoro and "Information, Physics and Computation", written with A. Montanari, give some partial idea of my center of interest

An important detail for voter confidence: Trump won a number of states with no-excuse absentee voting.
