mindblowing new discovery in Conway's Game of Life: any buildable pattern in Life can be constructed from the collision of 15 gliders.

the key principle: distance itself can be used to encode information. by determining the correct starting [x,y] coordinate for each glider, any future state of the Life universe can be created, with effectively unbounded complexity. 🤯

Think you understand Maximum Likelihood? Think again.

It seems like such a natural idea, but there’s an epic and turbulent history with numerous assaults on the core idea, culminating in a beautiful and complicated theory.

A highly entertaining account:

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults.

I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

प्रधानमंत्री जी, महिला कुश्ती खिलाड़ी धरने पर बैठी हैं। आपके सांसद पर यौन शोषण के आरोप हैं। आप ठंड की वजह से चुप हैं या सांसद की ताक़त से? क्या देश अब BBC से उम्मीद करें कि गुजरात की तरह इस पर डॉक्यूमेंट्री बनाए और ब्लॉक हो जाए! नारी की पूजा वाले देश के पुजारी कहाँ भाग गए ?

Extremely disappointed with mainstream media & top Indian newspapers on lack of Hockey coverage. Hockey World Cup starts tomorrow. India is hosting it. Been barely any articles even on our own players. We have brilliant hockey journalists. Give them some space please!!!

@docbhooshan@twitter.com Haftas are collected by PMC, Police and corporators from every single street food vendor in Pune. Everytime you eat on the street, you are also indirectly contributing to corruption.

Today's video shared by a Punekars. This is the smart City footpath outside Kamala Nehru Park "rented" out by @PMCPune@twitter.com forcing kids that use the park to walk on the road. More than half the width of that road used for parking under a no parking sign thanks to @PuneCityTraffic@twitter.com!
