People on here have been commenting a lot about women not showing up for dates
I'll just say that I have never once had a woman not show up for a date after agreeing to a time and a place. Every other popular complaint seems valid, but this one is fake as far as I can tell.

It is worth reading mathematics professor Peter Woit’s “The Situation at Columbia” series for an inside view of how elite faculty view the situation they are in. A particularly revealing quote:

Soccer is inferior because 98% of possessions do not advance the game state.
In American football, every play advances the game state. Even if nothing happens, 2nd and 10 is meaningfully different from 1st and 10. 3rd and 10 from the 20 is a very different game state from 1st and 10 from the 20.
In basketball, about half of all plays end in a score (arguably this is too much).

You're right that Argentina doesn't have a legitimate claim to the islands under standard liberal international relations theory, but there are other theories of international sovereignty. The Argentinian position is straightforward: Look at a map. They consider the Southwest Atlantic Ocean to be Argentinian. They also claim the Antarctic Peninsula.
The anticolonial aspect shouldn't be underestimated either. Under a strict interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine, the United States should have opposed British recapture of the islands.

Now that would be a threat.
The obvious conclusions are obvious. Apart from those, I find myself impressed with OpenAI's communications department. "OpenAI and Hugging Face partner to address security incident during model evaluation", is up there with, "Union Carbide and Bhopal City Council partner to address chemical stability incident during northerly wind event." Somehow they managed to keep this off not only the front page, but the second and third pages too.
