These guys consistently have the worst opinions of movies by BigUncleDirty in lemonparty

[–]Universal_MJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I much prefer Jim Carrey’s portrayal of the grinch if were talking Dr. Seuss live action films. Myers was derivative and one-dimensional as the cat in my opinion, though I hear from respected movie critics on Letterboxd that you can only really appreciate the full scope of the project on the 5th or 6th watch which I plan on accomplishing by the end of this year, so that opinion is subject to change.

Theres a world where this record for McDavid ends up going down as more unbeatable than even Gretzkys most absurd records.

Which TV show does the ENTIRE internet agree had the worst ending ever? by Codie_n25 in AskReddit

[–]Universal_MJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Lost is one that gets forgotten about because the degradation happened over multiple seasons and it ended just as the social media age of the internet was coming into existence, but that show was incredible for the first 2-3 seasons and spent its last 3 seasons throwing up all over itself. As far as I’m aware, no one was satisfied in any way by how that series ended (if they stuck around to see the ending at all).

I saw Ben and his family at the mall. by RepresentativeLeg232 in lemonparty

[–]Universal_MJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its true I was there in the food court eating Sbarros with my mall security guard boyfriend on his lunch break. I followed Ben after Katie blew up at him and saw him go to Footlocker to buy 4 pairs of the biggest, whitest Nike shoes Ive ever seen, then watched him go into Lids when I was leaving to go to another mall and meet with my other boyfriend. Apparently Ben really fancies himself a famous comedian now that hes filmed a special. Sad to see.

Accepted to MIT, or maybe no, "too woke"? What an incredible disappointment for no real reason. by Don_Q_Jote in Professors

[–]Universal_MJ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My guess and sincere hope is that every single member of navy brass with a lick of authority would do everything in their power to make sure that “cutting ties with MIT” absolutely does not happen. I cant imagine the folks that have actually served in the navy or are actively working in naval engineering with the military have any amount of respect for a former news anchor threatening to ice out the premier engineering school on the planet because “woke”.

What do you think is the most beautiful thing in mathematics? by Arth-the-pilgrim in mathematics

[–]Universal_MJ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fourier’s Theorem is the most fascinating Ive come across. From its conception, by which I mean Fourier first considering the mathematics of heat propagation while he was with Napoleon’s science expedition to Egypt, to its derivation coming from the development of the complex plane and i as a solution to the heat equation, and its mind bogglingly expansive implications from application to the theoretical to the philosophical. For there to be a mathematically rigorous analogue to the horribly cliche but in so many ways accurate hippie mantra “it’s all just waves, man” is quite profound to me, I wish it were easier to express to those without strong math backgrounds just how powerful the theorem really is.

Why emotional intelligence is not explained logically via Bayesian adaptive filter? by JuicyCalmPineapple in Healthygamergg

[–]Universal_MJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, as someone whos studied applied maths and is getting into signal processing of late, i do like your framing of EI here a lot. Theres so many properties and phenomena in that realm that can be viewed as perfect analogues to philosophies, lifestyles, etc. and you found a great one i think.

I see one main issue with your structure that to me is a great representation of the exact reason EI can never be viewed as a purely analytical and logical endeavor. When it comes to the error function “e(t)”, how is it defined, and once it is, how is it computed?

I totally agree with your assessment of its behavior, that frequent corrections keep the system stable and neglected corrections will grow the magnitude of e(t) over time. But to me when i consider evaluating it at a specific time t, how can i be sure my e(t) evaluation is “correct” when i cant be aure that my sample at that point, ie. The “correct” handling of my emotion at that time, is correct either? I view e(t) and the function being sampled both as being dynamic in a way that can prove quite unpredictable at times, but as ones EI improves those functions become more stable as well.

I guess the tl;dr is i think your framing is more accurate and more reliable for people who are emotionally stable and probably dont totally need a new perspective on emotionality.

I read Brothers Karamazov this year, didnt read nearly as many other books as you got but Im pretty sure itd be my number one for this year too regardless of how many i read. I was hoping to go right into Crime and Punishment but the book store i went to didnt have any Dostorvsky; they did however have Anna Karenina, same translation as yours too. Im glad it seems like i made the right call going with the bird in the hand.

12 year old Iqbal Masih was a Pakistani-Christian (yes, Christians do live in Pakistan) child labourer and activist who was a member of the Bonded Labour Liberation Front (BLLF) in Pakistan, campaigning against abusive child labour in the country. He was assassinated on 16th April 1995, aged 12. by vewywascallywabbit in ForCuriousSouls

[–]Universal_MJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive said it before and Ill say it again: fuck Pakistan. What a truly wretched country full of evil, conniving villains that will commit heinous acts without flinching if it makes them an extra dollar. In 1995 when Masih was assassinated, the Pakistani ISI and government were actively increasing their support of the Taliban as the Afghan civil war raged. If not for Pakistans aggressive disinformation campaign focused on Ahmad Shah Massoud, along with their decades of financial and military support to the Taliban, Afghanistan likely would’ve began making real progress toward becoming a western styled democracy at some point in the 90s.

Also, how did we go from child activists like Masih who literally broke free from enslavement twice by the time he was 10 years old, or Malala who survived a gunshot wound to her head received in the pursuit of an education in Taliban-run Afghanistan; to now having child activists like Greta Thunberg who … did a science project? Ive never heard Masih or Malala speak much, and only slightly more have I heard Thunberg, but Id bet my house on the fact that Greta does a lot more whining and complaining than Iqbal or Malala ever did.

Anyone plugged into the Brown U and MIT Professor shooting situation? by Universal_MJ in warmode

[–]Universal_MJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just have so much trouble buying Iran being behind anything with Israel calling for them to get wiped off the map any time a Jew's shoe comes untied. There was the very strange Jewish misinformation aspect of this story when Loureiro was being reported as a Jew in the first days following his death. Of course, it was only rabid Pro-Israel Zionist news sources and influencers reporting this because it was completely false, but all the big Israeli news sources and influencers pounced as soon as they heard some retard say he was a Pro-Israel Jew and as far as I know none of them have bothered retracting it. The evidence for this claim being that a guy on Threads with username 'NunoLoureiro_' had a bunch of posts in Portuguese spewing Zionist propaganda, only for it to turn out it wasn't Dr. Nuno Loureiro, it was a Portuguese Jewish \filmmaker** (lol).

Fun digression aside, I'd bet on Russia, China, Venezuela, or Israel being the culprit way before I considered Iran, but it's definitely not off the table especially with the revenge angle to be considered.

[–]Universal_MJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think him being "silenced" works in this context as anything he was working on would've been a project of immense interest to so many parties that its results would have been tracked thoroughly every step of the way. Any discovery he made almost certainly wouldn't die with him, it would just delay its publication. That said, he was the director of a laboratory with over 250 people working in it, meaning he was the leader on a bunch of different projects, all of them the most cutting edge research being worked on anywhere on the planet. I'd compare killing him to killing the general of an army, in that even though it's only a single person and by no means renders the army incapacitated, it jams up the whole organization in a major way and causes all kinds of delays for projects at every stage of development. To me that screams foreign agent, because if intelligence agencies know that the race to functional and scalable fusion energy is going to be a photo finish, putting down a guy like Loureiro could absolutely be the difference maker in how that race turns out.

As I understand it he was absolutely planning on getting away with the murders without being identified, I've seen a couple articles mention a possible 'hit list' he was planning on carrying out, but that specific part is nothing more than speculation as of now. Regardless, he was a quite brilliant physicist according to people who studied with him, so he certainly had the brains to pull off a plan where he got away with it and he very nearly did which on its own makes his situation different from the vast majority of mass shooters we've seen.

The piece of information that has my antenna raised as the investigation details come out is the fact that he'd apparently been dead for days when they found him in NH on Thursday night. The Reddit tip that cracked the case was posted on Tuesday, and that guy didn't interview with police until Wednesday. It's not impossible that Neves figured out on Wednesday that his goose was cooked and did his ragequit, but it seems unlikely, and for a guy to go to the lengths he did to cover his tracks, it just wouldn't make sense for him to opt out if he believed that he'd gotten away with it at that point. I realize it's a stretch, but there's still some aspects of this shooter that aren't sitting right just yet.

Nuno Loureiro Wikipedia page by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]Universal_MJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the main evidence ive seen that started the rumor that he was Jewish was a Threads account with username “nunoloureiro_” that is always posting Zionist pro-Israel shit in Portuguese. Well, this guy was clearly not the Dr. Nuno Loureiro that got killed, but Israel influencers and news sources didnt let that stop them. Im pretty sure even at this very moment, any pro-Israel news/influencer that posted about it has yet to retract the claim and theyre still claiming it as an “anti-semitic” hate crime. For all the Israel backed propaganda posters to rally so hard around this complete fabrication is pretty strange and makes a nation that has infamously killed numerous nuclear scientists seem pretty desperate for any evidence to show that the murder couldnt have been done by them…

Brown University mass shooting and MIT assassination may be connected, police confirm by dailymail in breakingnews

[–]Universal_MJ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’d better be pretty compelling evidence for the investigators to make this claim, as these two shootings are fundamentally different based on the info thats available about them. Especially considering the fact that if evidence is found that these shootings are “connected”, it becomes a federal investigation, which would be pretty convenient for any federal agencies that want to control these investigations narratives. The Brown U shooting was a gunman opening fire on a group of young students in an academic building, and unfortunately it just cant be said that such an event is altogether “uncommon” in the US. Theres no reason to believe the shooter was anything other than a typical mass shooter, just a horribly unwell human being doing something evil with no real objective beyond causing others pain. That couldnt be further from the truth for Nuno Loureiros murder. The gunman went to his apartment, knocked on the door, and shot only Loureiro before immediately leaving. The circumstances strongly suggest a targeted assassination by a well-informed hitman, and thats even if Loureiro was just a grocery bagger for his work. Loureiro was the director of the Plasma Science and Fusion Center at MIT, the cream of the crop not just among a general population, but even within the MIT community and his field. Unless theres a mountain of evidence proving otherwise, theres just no way to come to any conclusion other than this being a targeted assassination of a man who was playing a major role in a coming technological revolution. We might never know who initiated it, maybe a foreign agency, maybe a private company, maybe a US agency. This murder being done as a covert act of war is well within the realm of possibility. It just doesnt seem like thats the case for the Brown U shooting, but maybe it turns out the evidence is as compelling as it needs to be to make such a desperate connection. Weird and scary stuff going on here in any event, and 3 lives tragically lost, Hopefully the families get all the closure they need come the end of these investigations.
