I am the first Mayor in the world to be made into a hologram — and unfortunately, it didn’t make my teams’ lives any easier (or give them a raise!) but it will help you find your way around our city. So whether you’re touching down at @FlySJC or watching the touchdown at Super Fest this weekend, @LiveX_ai, @jobyaviation, @Waymo, and so many other tech leaders are helping make this the most innovative Super Bowl yet. And if you’re not tired of hearing me talk, go meet my digital twin at SJC or San Pedro!
Each year, on this day, I pause to honor the life and legacy of #AaronSwartz He dreamt of a world where we all have access to knowledge. May we always carry that in our hearts.
This whole thread is hilarious!
Due to popular demand, I've fused @ylecun with a bunch more celebrities. 😅

Starting off with Yann Potter:
Over 150 #Xooglers in Health formed a community and 75+ met for the first time last week in-person and virtually. What amazing energy. Thank you @SignalFire for hosting us and thank you to all the Xooglers who came together 🙏
Great event with #Xooglers at @SignalFire today! Loved the energy in the room, and excited for these innovators to build massively impactful startups & products! Thanks @carmenw for making this happen.

Do you know that DeepMind has actually open-sourced the heart of AlphaGo & AlphaZero?
It’s hidden in an unassuming repo called “mctx”: github.com/deepmind/mctx
It provides JAX-native Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) that runs on batches of inputs, in parallel, and blazing fast.

Remembering Aaron Swartz. It’s hard to believe 10 years have passed since his tragic death. May we be better, collectively, at protecting those who strive to love and educate all of us.
I just joined @momsdemand & @everytown to send an urgent message demanding our U.S. Senators take bold action by passing gun safety legislation. We cannot wait for another mass shooting. Send your message now >> bit.ly/3GgUxyE

Overwhelming data show that early detection of cancer is the key to long term survival.
During the pandemic, a lot of routine healthcare and cancer screening was delayed, forgone.
It’s critical that we make a concerted effort to help people catch up on missed screenings.

This is a super smart essay from inside the Facebook world. The SALT SUGAR FAT (by Michael Moss) reference is the truest bit — and scariest. Lord of the Rings, 2020 and Stuffed Oreos: Read the Andrew Bosworth Memo - The New York Times ow.ly/I8qo30q7J6u
