đ Networking thread
Networking is important in almost every aspect of life including in the creative space and in amplifying your content.
It comes naturally to some and here a few tips you can make it work for you too online.
Be generous with your âlikesâ. If you enjoy someoneâs content. Tell them! Engage with their content online. Like, share, comment.
By doing so youâre amplifying their content. Guess what - they make return the favour too! Even if they donât - someone else will.
If youâve been inspired or your interest was peaked by someone elseâs content - donât hesitate to give them credit.
Most content creators will appreciate that.
Donât be afraid to reach out to other content creators in your world. Donât be an island. Create your tribe of creators to support each other.

Please help us welcome @malaikadiva to the platform! Like many creatives, Nat wears many hats including being a co-host of @girlinskies and digital content creator. As curator today, she\u2019ll be wearing her podcaster/digital content creator hat. Welcome Nat, over to you! pic.twitter.com/GY7UWNu0lU

The October Surprise of 2020: a #qanon and #BigDickAnon read.
I don't think it's a coincidence that BDA posted the Seven Days In May trailer on the same day President Trump tweeted this out:
https://t.co/lcvdqKNXz3
#qanon
#BigDickAnon
The President also just retweeted this:
https://t.co/7BJSGI9kaf
#qanon
#BigDickAnon
It's the Hillary Clinton private email server bit I'm interested in. Because Q told us what was on it.
#qanon
#BigDickAnon
Let's go through it.
2011 Shuttle Program terminated by Hussein.
US loses space dominance.
Then a link to a Fox News story (now 404) that said the Oboma administration knew about NK's miniaturized nukes.

I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax. Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions! https://t.co/GgnHh9GOiq

1/THREAD: WHEN WAS IT CLEAR?
Oct. 8, 2020: The purpose of this thread is to document and timestamp when it first became clear that #Bitcoin was likely to become a major reserve asset for public corporations, and eventually states, with Square's purchase of $50M in BTC.
The purpose is to give something to cite when ppl later claim "But there was NO WAY OF KNOWING..."
h/t @ErikSTownsend who used the same format to call out the impact of Covid on Feb 8 and made me personally aware of the looming shutdown of the country https://t.co/opuiNgSeqC !
Bitcoiners smarter than me have been predicting the takeover of the dollar by Bitcoin for many years.
In 2014 with Bitcoin barely at $1B, @pierre_rochard wrote https://t.co/EGHa58KqHq, covering all the incorrect narratives of Bitcoin and stating it will overtake the dollar.
"[skeptics] misunderstand how strong currencies like bitcoin overtake weak currencies like the dollar: it is through speculative attacks and currency crises caused by investors, not through the careful evaluation of tech journalists and 'mainstream consumers'" - @pierre_rochard
I first became bullish on Bitcoin in the summer of 2016, around a $3B market cap, but it was still a toy project at that time in the eyes of most in the financial world, while many technologists thought of it as a v1 technology to be improved on.

1/ In a Trump Tower press conference, held nine days before he took office, Donald Trump described his plan to separate his business from his presidency. Over the last few years, the key pillars of that plan have crumbled. Letâs go through them one-by-one.
2/ Promise 1 of Trumpâs ethics plan: âNo new foreign deals will be made whatsoever during the duration of President Trumpâs presidency,â his attorney said. Trump did at least one new foreign deal anyway.
(See the promise at 31:57 of the video
3/ We know that the president did new a new foreign deal in office because he himself admitted itâon a financial disclosure report filed with federal ethics officials. You can see here that he sold $3.2M of land in the Dominican Republic on Jan. 29, 2018. https://t.co/U7r3VCiJPM
4/ Promise 2 of Trumpâs ethics plan: He said he wasnât going to talk about the business with his sons, Eric and Don Jr., who he put in charge of day-to-day operations. Doesnât look like he kept that promise either.
(See promise 25:00 into the
5/ Contradicting his father, Eric Trump later told me that he did in fact plan to update his dad on the business. âYeah, on the bottom line, profitability reports and stuff like that. But you know, thatâs about it.â

1/ A â-wide NN of *any architecture* is a Gaussian process (GP) at init. The NN in fact evolves linearly in function space under SGD, so is a GP at *any time* during training. https://t.co/v1b6kndqCk With Tensor Programs, we can calculate this time-evolving GP w/o trainin any NN
2/ In this gif, narrow relu networks have high probability of initializing near the 0 function (because of relu) and getting stuck. This causes the function distribution to become multi-modal over time. However, for wide relu networks this is not an issue.
3/ This time-evolving GP depends on two kernels: the kernel describing the GP at init, and the kernel describing the linear evolution of this GP. The former is the NNGP kernel, and the latter is the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK).
4/ Once we have these two kernels, we can derive the GP mean and covariance at any time t via straightforward linear algebra.
5/ So it remains to calculate the NNGP kernel and NT kernel for any given architecture. The first is described in https://t.co/cFWfNC5ALC and in this thread

Miracle cure eFuels comes to the rescue of the German car industry! That is what I understand from the recent reactions in German politics. E.g. from @_FriedrichMerz (@CDU) as discussed by @Stefan_Hajek in @wiwo.
Unfortunately, reality is
You see, it IS eminently possible to power the trusted combustion engine with fuels that are produced using low carbon electricity. That's not the problem.
The problem is that you need A LOT MORE ENERGY while propping up an engine whose only advantage is that it can burn stuff.
Let's look at that engine first. Don't get me wrong: Germany should be proud at the heights to which it has taken this extremely complex marvel of engineering. The electric motor is simple by comparison. But also better on all fronts.
Actually, the higher the overcapacity of the combustion engine in normal use (e.g. for a car that can accelerate quickly) the the bigger the disadvantage of the combustion vehicle. Here the relatively slow and small Porsche already uses six time as much energy.
Then there's the losses when producing fuel from electricity. When you add that up you end up with around 87% energy losses versus 73% losses for the electric vehicle. So eFuels need over five times (73/13=5.6) more energy.
