Given what we know about COVID-19 today, that seems logical.

I visited a city hall just recently and even the city hall is “all masks, all the time.”

2+3+4+5+? = 2345, solve for ?

They're going to push it until large scale bloodshed is unavoidable.

Really makes you wonder about November.

Cool charts to visualize things.

Think they are that smart?

Fantastic.

Finally, a decent white person!

Nah. His own teammates ripped him for the kneeling comment and he apologised profusely.

(Mostly because this is probably his last shot at the Big Game, and he needs his supporting cast. Badly.)

This seems like something we obviously need, but it can’t just be a get-out-of-responsibility free card. It needs to be contingent on certain defined protocols being followed.

I’m not surprised, I think the ACLU even formally replaced its old mission.

They need to update their website.

The word "peace" or its variants ("peaceful," "peaceably") etc., appear three times on that site. Two of them are referencing things that happened over 60 years ago.

None of them address what's happening now.

I guess that qualifier from the First Amendment isn't all that important to the ACLU.

I first noticed that primes above 50 appear an even number of times, and at least the higher primes below 50 appeared an odd number of times. Therefore I figured it had to be 48, 50, or 52. I then figured of the three 50 was the most likely answer and confirmed it with code.

Then I thought there must be an easier way.

So if you think of this as 100*(99!)^2 * 98*(97!)^2... 2*(1!)^2 you can reduce it to
(some huge perfect square) * 100 * 98 * 96... * 2

Then you pull out a 2 from each factor and get 2^50*(50!). So yeah, exclude the 50! and you have a perfect square.

Reminds me of the package of peanuts I saw with the ‘May contain nuts’ warning.

I'd sentence that sucker to twenty years.

Working on that church. Wake up in prison, go to work, come back. Six days a week. Sundays, you wake up in prison and you go to church to pray for forgiveness.

Communist!

The statues are pretty funny and well done. Can’t imagine the blackface uproar if they were done during the Obama years, though.

😁

You beat me to it. I was ready to post something similar, and I knew just what colors, too.

Fully jaded people would say either choice is just as bad.

The interesting part is that those that want to be in the middle and just want their return to normalcy are being forced to choose. Those on the left that believe Trump will win wont allow themselves to realize that their fear is that enough in the middle will go Trump’s way.

Deciding that both choices are equally bad is a personal failure, but one that people seem to be contented with.

I suspect that a Trump will lose big time, but I have witnessed enough new data to come in of late that I’m not so sure that Nate’s models know how to deal with the uncertainty of the next 100 days.

I’m a big fan of data but I’ve also seen it be so much less predictive of late than I thought possible.

It would be funny, if it wasn't true...
