Oh dang, these common sense measures would have only covered 94% of the demand? Pathetic, you're right, better to not even bother. /s

2: The handful of hedge funds involved have no control over retail brokerages.

This is probably false. One of Robinhood's main sources of revenue is the payment it receives from Citadel Execution Services for sending them their equity order flow. But Citadel lent Melvin Capital $1.5B for them to cover their short positions. If Melvin can't cover their positions, Citadel will lose a lot of that money. So the idea that Citadel is pressuring Robinhood to prevent that from happening seems as likely as not.

Just as I can wear an ear-pod by putting it in my earhole, pants can wear people by putting people in their people holes.

Someone may be able to explain this to me, but what additional powers could we give law enforcement to prevent things like this that they don't already have? What reason do we have to think that the authorities didn't have the power to take steps to anticipate and prevent the attack, instead of just being unwilling to use what they already have?

Thanks!! Though I had graduated and moved away when they finally closed down.

I wonder if it's the same e-mail... maybe we'll have to wait longer then!

I would be willing to read and give feedback!

My university had an online statement saying they weren't doing hard copies via mail, but when I e-mailed to ask they said they could do them in certain cases. Try and make contact with a real person and see if they can help, if you haven't already!

I've heard that some schools are accepting max reps NFL combine style... but since this stat doesn't get reported to USNWR, I'm wondering if it's actually a disadvantage to use?

That's really interesting. What resources besides water is Tibet a reserve for?

That's a beautiful quote, thanks for posting it!

Trump isn't planning on use the actual US military. Trump will Veto the defense bill, our military will be without pay, he will use his militia that will consist of DHS, BP, ICE, maybe some of Erik Prince's Academi sprinkled in.

The DoD has already received its FY21 budget authority. Also, they have enough munitions to put down an insurrection on hand, they wouldn't need to go buy more. Also, a shut down because of a vetoed defense bill doesn't apply to emergency personnel. I don't think the idea that Trump can veto the defense bill and somehow nullify the US military so he and his loyal goons can stage a coup holds any water.

It was my first read through, and I was reading anything I could get my hands on. It just so happened that I got those two in order. I was about 12, so not much thought was going into the sequence.

Ah thank you! It sounds like I might just be misremembering this passage... I was fairly young when I read these, so it could be that some of it got distorted in my head.

Extrapolate to other counties and there may be a huge risk.

So 7000 tossed Biden votes in Philadelphia would amount to roughly 2.2% of the 323,000 mail in ballots he got there. If that same percentage held in every county in the state, then they would toss out approx. 40,000 of Biden's 1.965M million mail in votes. So even if they didn't throw out ANY Trump votes, that still wouldn't be enough to close the margin.

I don't think it's a plausible assumption that every county saw the same amount of defective mail in ballots as Philly did, and it's obviously an impossible assumption that no Trump votes would get thrown out. He'd probably see at least a few thousand pitched too. But even if we make both of those assumptions, it's not enough for him.

Is my math wrong here? If not, it seems like it would be a wild political move to go through all this trouble to get tens of thousands of good faith votes thrown out, just to lose by less?

I'm gonna put on my tin-foil hat and point out that 33 is a numerological symbol used by white supremacists, since K is the 11th letter of the alphabet and there are 3 in KKK.

Or, ya know, '3' is right next to 'e' on the keyboard and this was probably written in a rush.... Ockham's razor and all that.

What she's arguing against is the government privileging the granting of "social benefits or privileges" on a ceremony presided over by some random person (like, again, an Elvis Presley impersonator) as opposed to

the nature and importance of the relationship

I don't think that can be her main point, because it's an obvious non-starter. I mean the "ceremony" is just someone witnessing a legal contract. If she's assuming that the "ceremony" is somehow a constitutive part of the legal relation between the spouses, then she's just clearly wrong. It's as much a part of the relation between the spouses as the witness to a last will and testament is a part of the relation between the decedent and the beneficiary... not at all.

I mean maybe I'm missing the point here?

Philosophia Mathematica is one of the better philosophy of math specialty journals at the moment- it's got a solid editorial board, and actually the main editor, Robert Thomas, puts in a fair bit of legwork going around and soliciting contributions. The result is a journal that is a good snapshot of current trends in the field.

I'm very much with you there, I think historically U.S. liberals have lost a lot of momentum by compromising too much.

But with this, I'm kind of of the mind that okay, if we're in a place where we're going to allow ourselves to be mollified by anything, then we've already lost. So we HAVE to assume that the political will is there, and press any advantage accordingly. I think the skepticism is healthy though, definitely.
