The world tells you to have sex with as many girls as possible.

Here’s why I think that’s B.S. and chose ONE woman (married @ 24 yrs + 8-figure entrepreneur): Image
First off - every influencer you see online flashes “women" (not gonna say any names but you know who they are).
It’s like the more girls the more “successful” you are…

But here’s how I see it:
The world: “You get a lot of girls”

Me: “You USE a lot of girls.”

J’ai pris le temps de lire attentivement la #BD #LeDroitDuSol. L’auteur dit notamment vouloir y parler d’#éthique & de #générationsfutures. Malheureusement, cette #BD, c’est aussi beaucoup de #fakenews, d’#amalgames voir de #complotisme 👉 #Thread babelio.com/livres/Davodea…

BREAKING: NY Supreme Court GRANTS Veritas’ Motion; ORDERS New York Times to destroy attorney-client memos “irregular[ly]” obtained from PV; REJECTS Times’ cries of “prior restraint” while citing case about “‘Hit and run’ journalism”
How did NYT obtain the memos? Poss. "improper means" : "The Times incredibly admitted that here 'no apparent bribery was used to obtain the memoranda.' ... [PV] has met its burden of showing [the memos] were obtained by irregular means, if not both irregular and improper means."
But the memos were public concern because it involved PV, no? No: "[S]ome things are not fodder for public consideration and consumption. These memoranda ... are only between an attorney and a client, and it does not matter one bit who the attorney and client are."

So excited to share our latest preprint!
TLDR:
We present NIQKI, a Mash-like tool able to index large sequence databases.
Its main feature is to be fast!
We were able to index all bacterial genomes of GenBank (>1million) and query all pairwise distances in a couple of days(!)
Behind the scenes, we rely on a novel index structure to query partition-based fingerprints that we call NIQKI (Next Index to Query Kmer Intersection) which use an inverted index for each partition
Concretely, we associate to each <partition/fingerprint_value>pair the list of genomes that got this fingerprint value in this partition.
This means that a query will only generate one costly "Random Access" per partition.

🚨🚨 NEW RESEARCH ALERT 🚨🚨

@petrasmussen and I have published "When All that Glitters is Gold: Dominated Plan Choice on @CoveredCA for the 2018 Plan Year" in the @MilbankFund Quarterly

We look at consumer choices after #Silverload

TLDR: People are confused

1/13
Dominated choices happen when on all relevant attributes Item A meets or beats Item B.

In a rational framework no one should ever choose Item B as it is dominated by A.

Our research is part of a growing literature that shows many people choose Item B for health insurance

2/N
Institutional context: Plan Years 2014-2017 #CostSharingReduction subsidies were directly paid to insurers by the Federal Government. CSR only applies to silver plans and there are 3 flavors (high, mid, low) from 100-150 FPL, 151-200 FPL and 201-250 FPL respectively.

"Terwijl de premier zijn regering uitroept tot ‘groenste regering ooit’, blijft de meest impactvolle paars-groene beleidsdaad dat emissievrije kernenergie vervangen wordt door massaal gesubsidieerde gascentrales, met miljoenen tonnen CO2-uitstoot". #ouch demorgen.be/ts-b4f8d052
En aan de progressieve ecologisten die nu zagen: "Ja maar, dit komt van @de_NVA, die niet écht om het klimaat geeft": dat is jullie schuld. Kerncentrales openhouden is zo'n complete no-brainer voor het klimaat dat zelfs klimaatsceptici ermee kunnen scoren. demorgen.be/meningen/laten…
Zoals eerder gezegd: ik heb niets met Vlaams-Nationalisme, maar een regeringscoalitie met @de_NVA ware béter geweest voor het klimaat dan met @groen & @Ecolo. Hoe pijnlijk is dat? De kernuitstap is het equivalent van een half miljoen (fossiele) auto's de weg op duwen. /3

Good morning #AdamSmith fans! Today we're talkin' stock lent at interest. It's always considered a form of capital. (I.iv.1) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
Stock lent at interest can be used for consumption or the borrower may use it as capital. If it's used as capital, the borrower can use the profits on their stock to repay the loan and pay back interest—this, says Smith, is more common. (II.iv.1–2) #WealthOfTweets #SmithTweets
Unless the borrower is a country gentleman. No one expects much of those guys. #Ouch (II.iv.3)

⚡️Trump inicia el mitin en #Tulsa, Oklahoma.

La arena no está llena, a 2/3 de su capacidad cuando más, en una ciudad y estado con repunte de #COVID19, con las personas sin guardar distancia y la gran mayoría sin cubrebocas. Ni el presidente ni el VP lo han usado tampoco... Image
Afuera había un templete y se esperaba que Trump dirigiera unas palabras al exceso de gente que no pudiera entrar.

Quitaron el templete y no dirigió palabras porque no hubo exceso de gente que se quedara sin poder entrar.
6 miembros del equipo de campaña de Trump dieron positivo a #COVID19 horas antes del evento.

He told her she was shallow and said: "You just want a relationship you can brag about to your friends!"

She asked him: "Why are you so satisfied being a failure?"

Relationships can be beautiful. And — when either or both partners are hurting — the words hurled at each other can be so brutal.

This is your daily pension announcement: How does GOA select ATRF Board members? Let me count the ways edition.

Travis was giving an talk this past Monday morning at the Hotel MacDonald. It was at the invite of the Institute of Corporate Directors. He said some strange things...
First of all, let me remind you that the @FairmontMAC makes a wonderful breakfast. For $95 you could have joined various business luminaries for a meal and to hear Travis speak about the future of Agencys, Boards and Commissions in Alberta. #AbLeg #AbEd #handsoffmypension
Travis talked a lot, to a full house, about the OAG report (link below) on improving Board recruitment, including:

1. Working closely with Board Chairs to identify skills for appointments.

2. Reviewing Director evaluations for reappointments.

1/ Working on a little show and tell for my students next week looking at #bone strength, #biomechanics and the power of the cylinder.
#AnatEd #MedEd
Before we begin, anyone want to place bets on how much weight one piece of paper can support?
2/ Step 1: Take an ordinary A4 sheet of blank 80gsm printer paper and a few bits of sellotape*.
(*other brands are available)
Step 2: roll slightly over one turn and affic with said tape. ImageImage
3/ Step 3: Begin carefully applying loads to the superior aspect of the cylinder. #unnaturalcauses @GRRMspeaking ImageImage

Deputy City Attorney Erin Kuka here. I took over my office’s account today! (Thx, Dennis!)

It’s a big day bc our case re the 2020 census is at the U.S. Supreme Court! I’ve been on the case since day 1, and today I’ll tell you everything you need to know. #Census2020 #SCOTUS
First, what’s happening today? We’re in a coalition that banded together to fight injustice. Barbara Underwood from @NewYorkStateAG and @dale_e_ho from @ACLU are arguing for all of us.
No cameras or phones are allowed in the Supreme Court, but SCOTUS will release a transcript later today—I’ll post as soon as it’s out. #HittingRefreshAllMorning #Patience

And for my #visuallyimpaired folks, I will #type out the #text of that #image, down here. Cuz the data is #important. (one of these days I'll get all my comics done with text properly on the site)

My forearm, right at the elbow, is needles and fire. It happens. And Overuse is the #1 suspect. Turns out today though, overuse is actually #2.

-internalized disabili-phobia. (gimmee a break,& gimmee the word if it exists)

it kinda works like internalized homophobia really. I pulled inside all of the shit I've heard for years. all of the hate, all of the "there's no place for you, so go and die already". all inside-

After last night's initial pass, reading through the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislative text in deeper detail today. Full write-up coming to Nerd's Eye View blog on Monday morning.

In the meantime, will be sharing some (threaded) highlights here...
Original Tax Reform proposal from President Trump would have narrowed from 7 tax brackets down to 3. The House GOP proposal would have kept 4 brackets (plus a 5th phase-out bracket of 45.6% for upper income folks).

Final TCJA keeps the 7 tax bracket structure, but trims rates.
Top tax bracket for individuals comes down to 37% under TCJA (from 39.6%), but the removal of the Pease limitation (which was effectively a 1.2% income surtax on the top bracket) means the top rate cut is really from ~40.8% down to 37%.
