What an out of touch buffoon. AOC is right, billionaires are a policy failure, and pg is making her point.

These teen science fair winners almost never amount to anything exceptional, and are a product intense parental supervision. Most universities have wised up.

It's unclear why anyone should listen to Tegmark. Frankly, its baffling to me why Tegmark even got tenure in the early 2000s at MIT for relatively trivial CMB data analysis techniques.

Electoral consequences for such a failure aren't enough, there need to be criminal indictments.

Tahoe has to be the worst software Apple has released in three decades. It's unbelievable it got through. If Macs and macOS were not a tiny portion of their revenue I would short the stock.

Most archival astro data have a lot of junk in them. Most of it is not worth the time of serious astronomers, because it's all rather inconsequential or incremental finding the Nth example of something rather than N=1. A good project for a high schooler as an exercise and signaling, but ultimately nothing will come from this work.
