I wonder what it’s like being one of the coders Elon Musk has hired to “break out of the simulation.” Like, what do you do all day?

More importantly: in the unlikely case that you actually succeed, do you really want to tell Elon Freaking Musk?

I have a dream Elon Musk comes to me one day and says “we’ve found the backdoor, but it’s secured by OpenSSL 0.9.8, do you have any thoughts?” That would be a dilemma.

Would also probably mean the Universe was simulated by Huawei.

Acting AG Whitakers hearing should be starting up again any minute now.

This is by far the dumbest hearing ever. AG Whitaker is only acting for a week and the Democrats are asking him by far the dumbest questions about who he talked to about his feelings about the SC investigation (the entire world, he wrote about it for CNN in an op-ed)

I THINK THEY KNEW DUMMY cnn.com/2017/08/06/opi…

(THREAD) The GOP claim that there's no corroboration of Dr. Ford's allegation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her is a lie. Corroborating evidence—evidence that tends to support a proposition—already exists. I'll detail as much of it as I can. I hope you'll read on and RETWEET.

1/ The GOP falsely claims "corroborating evidence" only exists when you have an innocent bystander at the scene of the crime who can later tell law enforcement, "I saw it all." You almost *never* have that sort of evidence in a sex crime—and that's *not* what corroboration means.

2/ Corroboration is any fact that is "probative" with respect to a given proposition—meaning, it tends to *support* a given proposition. Any fact known to law enforcement that tends to support the proposition that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Dr. Ford is "corroborating evidence."

45 Days Of @ElvisCostello: a twitter megathread in anticipation of the Oct 12 release date of LOOK NOW, the new LP by Elvis Costello & The Imposters

This is either a bright idea or a brilliant mistake, but this is only, this is only, this is only the beginning...

@theroots

I did something similar to this 5 years ago, in anticipation of EC & @theroots' Wise Up Ghost LP, on tumblr.

(You can still find all those posts if you look, although a lot of the YouTube links etc are now dead ends. It was 40 Days Of EC then, so for 2018 I'm upping it to 45.)

@jessebdylan

Mostly I will be going chronologically from the early years right up to the present, but it feels right to start out with Costello's 2002 song, "45."

Let's talk a little about Keaton Jones. I hope you will follow along and retweet this THREAD. facebook.com/kimberly.jones…

The first thing to say is I am genuinely happy his fortunes seem to be turning. There's a picture of him smiling with some football players that's especially nice.

Often lately it seems like something happens on social media, and I start thinking about it, and I can't even get my thoughts together before the story explodes.

(THREAD) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Mike Flynn will plead guilty to Making False Statements at 10:30 AM EST today (Friday). This is the biggest development in the Russia probe so far. This thread explains what it all means, and will be updated throughout the day. Please read and share.

1/ First, it's important to understand that Mueller has entered into a plea deal with Flynn in which Flynn pleads guilty to far less than the available evidence suggests he could be charged with. This indicates that he has cut a deal with Mueller to cooperate in the Russia probe.

2/ We've already seen Mueller do this once before in the probe, with George Papadopoulos—who was charged with the same crime as Flynn, Making False Statements, to secure his cooperation with the Russia probe. The Papadopoulos plea affidavit emphasized facts were being left out.
