SJW awokening harms mathematics more than communism did
Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 19 minutes ago
At Twitter, PartTimeRacer has informed me about the essay There Is No Such Thing as "White" Mathby Sergiu Klainerman, a Romania-born Jewish male mathematics professor at Princeton. (Here we do try to maximize the information that readers might find important, and given the sociological focus of these discussions, rightfully so.) I have mentioned his name four months ago. Klainerman is introduced as someone who left the Soviet bloc and who could do wonderful things in the U.S., partly because mathematics is a great equalizer.

Head to Head: What Happens When the Indian and Pakistani Armies Go to War?
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 33 minutes ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Asia* Will nuclear weapons fly? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *For its part, the Indian army plans to immediately take the offensive under a doctrine called “Cold Start*.*” Cold Start envisions rapid mobilization followed by a major offensive into Pakistan before the country can respond with tactical nuclear weapons. Such an offensive—and Pakistan’s likely conventional defeat—could make the use of tactical nuclear weapons all the more likely. The Indian subcontinent is home to two of the largest armies on Earth. Not only are the armies of India an...

After Years Of Propaganda, American Views Of Russia and China Hit Historic Lows
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 9 hours ago
A new Gallup poll finds that U.S. public opinion on China and Russia has crashed to all time lows. Only 20% of Americans hold favorable views towards China. This is a remarkable decline, considering that only three years ago, the majority of the country saw the Asian giant in a positive light. The public image of Russia is barely any better, with just 22% of the country viewing the world’s largest nation in favorable terms and 77% holding unfavorable views towards the country. Negative sentiment towards Beijing has risen across the board, but Republicans are most likely to hold it...

RS - It’s hard to believe but it’s only been a little over a month since Joe Biden took office. During that time, he’s signed a stack of executive orders that have resulted in everything from exploding gas prices to a surge of illegal immigration at the border, loss of untold thousands of jobs, and never mind his bombing of Syria. When it came to transparency, we were assured that things were going to be different even though the Trump administration was, in actuality, incredibly transparent. CNN’s chyron blared “how refreshing” about new Press Secretary Jen Psaki, while journali...

The Unbearable Lightness of Being an American Nazi
jurassicpork, Welcome Back to Pottersville - 4 hours ago
(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari .) *I*n a way, CPAC 2021 was hardly a surprise. The Conservative Political Action Conference was always a festering hotbed of right wing nuttery since the first one in 1974 at the end of Nixon's presidency. As with many other Republicans since, California Governor Ronald Reagan, already nursing political dreams that extended far beyond Sacramento, gave the keynote address at the inaugural conference. He would fail in his first presidential bid, of course, and Philadelphia, Mississippi was still over six years off. In its s...

“The Pelican Nebula is changing. The entire nebula, officially designated IC 5070, is divided from the larger North America Nebula by a molecular cloud filled with dark dust. The Pelican, however, is particularly interesting because it is an unusually active mix of star formation and evolving gas clouds. The featured picture was processed to bring out two main colors, red and blue, with the red dominated by light emitted by interstellar hydrogen. Ultraviolet light emitted by young energetic stars is slowly transforming cold gas in the nebula to hot gas, with the advancing boundary b...

Emilie Oldknow and the Rare Comeuppance
Phil, All That Is Solid ... - 5 hours ago
Every day brings joy for some, tragedy for others. It might confer a windfall, or saddle one with crippling debt. Falling into the last category is the Labour Party's former head of governance, Emilie Oldknow. She took the party to court to force the release of the five names it suspects leaked last year's report into the disciplinary process. The report which, incidentally, repeated verbatim hundreds of 2016-2017 WhatsApp messages between the then head of governance and her right wing cohorts at party HQ. And in a rare moment of justice being seen to be done, she failed. Or, to gi...
