This is my grandfather, Murray Goldfinger. The tattoo, 161108, was given to him at Birkenau.
He's 91 and his health is failing. He told his tale of survival for 65 years. Now, I've taken the responsibility.
One part of his story always gets a big reaction from students.

Everything is terrible but my cousin’s 9-year old daughter Alice has been quietly and masterfully slaying the @NewYorker’s caption contest and it’s pure delight.

This is like a scene in a sci-fi movie, but it's real. Must-read technical explanation of how AlphaZero taught itself chess. What we're seeing is nothing less than AI's revealing that for all our intelligence and evolution, we've been stuck in local minima en.chessbase.com/post/the-fu…

(THREAD) Erik Prince—Trump advisor; ex-head of a murderous mercenary army; would-be head of Trump's private spy agency; would-be head of a privatized U.S. army—is a dangerous liar. He just testified under oath. This is a live reading of the transcript. Hope you'll read and share.

Let me explain net neutrality in the most horrific way:
if FCC dismantles it, and you get internet from Verizon, they may force you to use YAHOO as your search engine (because they own it), but PAY to use GOOGLE.
Would you like that? If not, you SUPPORT #NetNeutrality.

The best technical design advice I've ever received is you will get it wrong, optimize for making your code easy to modify in the future.
