No, a cancer med works or not. Nobody would object. But that’s not how math advances.
Open problems and scaffolding doesn’t just drop from trees.
The dump wasn’t properly checked. What’s the hurry? Many don’t have Lean proofs. A few already retracted. Plagiarism claims abound.
Behind a paywall so can’t read the full article, but this graph clearly shows a simpler answer: More white kids moved in, and there’s a limited number of schools, so naturally segregation would go down. Besides, the system is still intensely segregated.
DC Public Schools have become less segregated—a real achievement when most schools are becoming more segregated. How did they do it? They got better at teaching the fundamentals and more parents opted in. More in this excellent piece from @JHWeissmann.

This is just despicable by MS NOW, which has accepted stolen taxpayers dollars for 38 illegal ads. Give me a break with this bullshit statement too. So your hosts are on air all day saying this is illegal while you are taking the money and running the ads? Just gross.

Insane story: Milwaukee police swatted an innocent couple 55 times in a single year, only stopping after they filed a lawsuit.
"Body camera video shows one officer pointed a gun at the couple's door on their fourth response in a single day."

I just want to be clear Mike Davis isn’t a random person. He’s been in GOP politics for decades. He worked on Bush campaign, clerked for Gorsuch and was considered for AG. This tweet is clearly racist. Is he important enough for politicians to be asked about, or is that just for left wing streamers?

Don’t think it’s widely understood that the rule vote MGP and Golden broke ranks and might take punishment for is what allowed this bill to get a vote. Republicans packaged it with their anti-socialism bill that also praised the SAVE Act. Guessing they had an incentive
The House just passed my Bipartisan Protect Economic and Academic Freedom Act with Congresswoman @virginiafoxx to stand firm against the BDS movement on college campuses and protect Jewish students and professors. This bill is an important step forward in ensuring academic freedom for all students. I will push the Senate to take up the bill shortly so it can become law.

Here’s the NYT story a day after the @LeverNews story — without any mention of our story.
It’s annoying when our reporting is uncredited by big fancy outlets, but it’s also good to see our reporting prompting those outlets to cover stuff.

It’s not the first column of his to be spiked and while I strongly disagree with all of the columns the Times didn’t run, they should have published them. Unless these columns were factually inaccurate or not meeting journalistic standards, run it and deal with the fallout.
If people get pissed, so be it. Let him have to defend his shitty opinions in the public square. I totally get why he resigned.
After 11 years as a sports columnist at the Seattle Times, I have decided to resign. It was entirely my choice, and it was not an easy one. The impetus was the Times declining to run a column I wrote from the perspective of two female student athletes who were opposed to competing against biological males. It was one of several pieces of mine that had been spiked, and I no longer felt like I could properly do my job as a columnist. I lay out the situation in greater detail in the link below, but I want to say that I enjoyed my time with the paper, find the talent there to be immense, and have no animosity toward anyone who works there. It was just time for a change.
