In 2010 I entered FanExpo Canada backstage with Stan Lee. I was in line outside and saw two volunteers escorting him in. I called his name, shook his hand, and joined them. Stan Lee was on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 1995 Obama was on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 2006 So, my number is 3.
To flip some discourse script for a bit: what’s y’all’s Obama number (ie degrees of separation with the former president)? Mine is 3

$24.99 for Blue Prince on its own is worth it. Then you get nine other games too. And the proceeds go to charity. All in all, that's pretty good.
PlayForEveryChild is live: 10 PC games for $24.99 from PlanetPlay. 100% of PlanetPlay’s net profits from the bundle will be donated to support UNICEF’s work for children around the world. Ends midnight PT at the end of 22 Oct, while stocks last. link.planetplay.com/playforevery... @unicef.org

because it is relevant to my work, I have tried very hard to educate myself on how AI works, be fair and measured in how I evaluate it, and regularly test new tools to confirm or debunk my priors and tbh AI haters are just nailing it with less work like 99% of the time. keep at it folks

If you self-host and run PHP on it (which is very likely) you NEED to update it later today, ASAP. A major vulnerability that affects PHP versions since 5 has been found, which allows remote code execution (very bad). You MUST retweet and share with friends who self-host. THIS IS CRITICAL. ⚠️

Literally: What would you say if you saw it in another country?
Wow. “A small group of U.S. national security officials has been discreetly advising state governments & congressional lawmakers on how to prepare for the possibility that the Trump administration will attempt to interfere in November’s midterm elections.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Albania's corrupt government secretly sold a popular nature preserve to Jared Kushner to be bulldozed for an exclusive resort, and Albanians responded by burning everything to the ground.
The Supreme Court burns to the ground in Albania, Parliament and the Department of Education has been stormed, the Prime Minister is in hiding and the country is effectively in the hands of the rebels. Albania rejects blatant corruption and their country being sold.
