#1189: "Fox News, Immigrant Family, and the F******* Wedding Invite List"

Hey LW and world, [CN Gun Violence/Islamophobia] My late Grampa used to send me and other family members emails with horrible horrible Islamophobic rhetoric for years. Horrible. And I'd answer back and argue with him, and you know what happened, every time?

The family would come after me. "Take me off this list!" "Just ignore him!" "He's a old man!" "You're just encouraging him!" "Why would you copy me on these stupid arguments?" "Just let it go!"

Narrated by Manohar Parrikar. “I am from the village of Parra in Goa, hence we are called Parrikars. My village is famous for its watermelons. When I was a child, the farmers would organise a watermelon-eating contest at the end of the harvest season in May.

All the kids would be invited to eat as many watermelons as they wanted. Years later, I went to IIT Mumbai to study engineering. I went back to my village after 6.5 years. I went to the market looking for watermelons. They were all gone. The ones that were there were so small.

I went to see the farmer who hosted the watermelon-eating contest. His son had taken over. He would host the contest but there was a difference. When the older farmer gave us watermelons to eat he would ask us to spit out the seeds into a bowl.

NEXT UP: 6th seed Impala (Aepyceros melampus) vs 11th seed Klipspringer (Oreotragus oreotragus) #2019MMM

Our first battler is the impala, or as Dick Estes, author of the Behavior Guide to African Mammals calls them “the perfect antelope.” #2019MMM h

Let’s explore why these antelope are so perfect. For one, they are gorgeous (SEE PICS). For two , they are about ~130 lb (60 kg), so they provide a perfect meal for a cheetah, leopard, wild dog, or even a lion. #2019MMM #Foreshadowing? ht

Some @AudreyTruschke whom I never knew has expressed 'expert' opinion on my tweet on Sambhaji Maharaj's martyrdom. Seems habitual of cooking up stories that can sell her book or get her 100 more Jihadi+liberal cheerleaders from Indo-Pak. Challenge u,read this thread on #Aurangzeb h

Conversion was integral part of all Muslim invasions. #Aurangzeb was worst of all Mughal rascals who invaded India or were their progenies. When he killed Guru Tegh Bahadur, Bhai Mati Das, Bhai Sati Das and many more, conversion to Islam was common condition put by rascal.

Many morons who have written books on #Aurangzeb try to portray him as a benevolent ruler who used to make earning by sewing caps, writing Quran's copies and what not. Reality is, this rascal massacred millions of Hindus,converted millions to Islam & desecrated countless temples.

what some folks don't seem to understand - the Knicks posting a 1-26 record over their last 27 games is far, far preferable to being 6-21 or 8-19. It's really that simple. If the Knicks had been this bad last season, they might have Luka Doncic on their roster right now.

for years and years and years, the Knicks were mocked for winning too many games. For overpaying for broken-down vets and failing to strip the roster down and commit to a rebuild NY is finally rebuilding the right way - developing a young core while increasing their lottery odds

If, from 2001 thru 2018, fans/media were screaming: "This is not the right way to build a team! Don't skip steps! Be patient, swallow losses and rebuild properly!!" They can't then, in 2019, scream: "Knicks are losing too many games!! This is not the right way to build a team!"

1/ Rights of Portuguese Citizens in the UK enshrined in law - Foreign Secretary @Jeremy_Hunt tells @nestrangeiro_pt This is NOT true and it is worthwhile examing his untrue words in detail to understand how UK Govt is misleading EU27 Governments.

2/ "the British Parliament has already approved the law that enshrines the rights of European citizens living in the United Kingdom on 29 March this year, in accordance with the terms agreed and set out in the exit [EU/UK] agreement” @Jeremy_Hunt hunt claims in Portugal.

4/ "[...] in accordance with the terms agreed and set out in the exit agreement” @Jeremy_Hunt claims. That is not what the UK Govt plans in a no-deal Brexit: Shortened application period, reduced family reunion rights are just 2 areas they want to change.

Women treat submissive men terribly to punish them for existing. Disgusted by the idea of their genetic offspring - females prod and punish the dutiful coward hoping to inspire some masculinity in the form of resistance. Females do not want weak babies. From weak fathers.

The weaker you are. The more you submit. The harder they push to try and make a man out of you. This is why she always horrible to the nice guy and sucks the dick of the bad guy. Learn the rules to the game HERE:

Women do not want men who are horrible to them. Or rude. Absolute misconception. They want men who stand up for themselves. It’s very easy to be a man of stature and kindness. Alpha doesn’t equate to asshole. Be kind but uncompromising in the levels of respect you expect.

[Thread detailing anti-socialist, anti-Venezuelan propaganda]

Those babies that the Venezuelan opposition claims are thrown into boxes isn't even from Venezuela- this photo is from Honduras in 2013, shortly after the U.S. staged a coup in 2009.

They claim the Venezuelan government burnt the "aid" trucks on the Colombian-Venezuelan border. Except the opposition terrorists are *on video* creating molotov cocktails, lighting them on fire, and throwing them at the aid trucks.

So I'm doing research for a thingy I'm writing about the weird historical triangle between Henry George, The Chinese Exclusion Act, and Dr. Sun Yat-sen ("the George Washington of China") and to say it's been a deep dive is an understatement. (1/15)

Dr. Macklin makes another appearance in the February 2, 1912 edition of "The Public" where they publish reports of HIS FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT OF THE HANDOVER OF NANKING FROM THE QING DYNASTY FORCES TO THE REPUBLICAN REBELS WTF IS EVEN GOING ON HERE (4/15)

So Dr. Macklin is repairing the fingers of THE QING GENERAL IN CHARGE OF NANKING and they casually just decide "oh hey Doc we wanna surrender but they'll shoot us on sight -- you're a foreigner so why don't you go out and talk to them about it." Macklin: yeah sure why not (5/15)

1/ @DharmaProtocol is thrilled to unveil our ambitions for the next generation of financial products that "can't be evil" — Lever: https://goo.gl/qBG1an Thread 👇

4/ We've made important strides in that direction with Lever. See for yourself: Offering your Ether on the Dharma Credit Market is no longer predicated on having MetaMask installed — you simply send your Ether to a one-time "relay address", and that's it. We handle the rest.

3/ The next generation will replicate the existing Web 2.0 experience in a wholly non-custodial manner — meeting consumers in their comfort zone, rather than pushing them out of it.

Claim: Range anxiety will limit the ability of the all-electric car, even if the battery costs come down. Our contributor, @JustinTierney_, challenges this claim and thinks it's bogus 👇

Related to this is the argument that when a station is found, it takes considerably longer to charge than to refill a gas car. This is still true, EXCEPT:

Comparing EVs with gas-powered cars presents challenges because many of the comparisons are not apples to apples. 😬 One such issue is the idea of "range anxiety": The FEAR of running out of battery with nowhere to charge because of a lack of charging stations.

1/3 Really proud to share #AlphaStar with the world - a milestone for game-playing AI, and the first system to beat a top pro at #StarCraft2. Massive thanks to @Blizzard_Ent, @Liquid_MaNa & @LiquidTLO for being part of this great journey! Blog + Replays:

2/3 As well as showing how far we’ve come, it was exciting to test out our new prototype system that uses the in-game camera interface to play. Massive respect to @Liquid_MaNa for outplaying it! We’ll keep working on it and play more games soon :)

3/3 While StarCraft is ‘just’ a (very complex!) game, I’m excited that the techniques behind #AlphaStar could be useful in other problems such as weather prediction & climate modeling, which also involve predictions over very long sequences. Peer-reviewed paper is underway.

1/ I’ve lost a lot of weight over the past couple of years and been asked a lot about the story. Here goes, tl;dr - starting a company was bad for my health and took me a while to get it back.

2/ During the first two years of starting @triple_byte. I neglected my health. Gained 32lbs and went from a BMI of 27 (overweight) to 32 (obese). It took me another 2 years to find a way to get it back. This is a graph of my weight over the first 2 years.

3/ It was easy to identify the behaviors. I wasn’t exercising, eating more (100% takeout/delivery) and drinking more. Changing the behaviors wasn’t easy. I tried shouting at myself (eat less! exercise more!) and various diets (eat anything, just no carbs). Nothing worked.
