Huge turnout against #ICE and #DHS, #protest/ #generalStrike in #Minneapolis #Minnesota yesterday
International observers and even some domestic observers:
You may ask why Americans aren't doing more
And I agree
But much is being done that you don't see because a lot going on is purposefully deemphasized in the #USA #newsmedia
Btw, this was in -10 F (-20 C) weather

@benroyce it's not "anti-ice," it's "Fuck ice." Stop using their vocabulary.

@macacator @benroyce
If Fuck ICE isn't anti-ICE, what is? -

Ok I edited it but I didn't say "fuck" because of my delicate shy nature 😁

@benroyce Did they get an official head count?

I don't know but I saw an estimate of 100k

Some video from yesterday
I don't know how many people. I've seen 50k, 100k, 150k chatted about on social media
Of course the media is only saying "thousands"
Again this is -10 F/ -20 C

@benroyce „a few payed riots“ sigh.

City of about 1/2 million people. Many, many people were doing defensive work around the city and could not attend the crowd. I could believe (and be impressed with) tens of thousands.

@benroyce Danish media did the exact same when somewhere between 50-100K protesters gathered last year in Copenhagen, in support of the people of Gaza - "thousands".
You get the feeling they at least tried "several" on for size, before realizing it might give the game away a little to hard...

@benroyce @DebErupts It's difficult with large demos, because organisers will tend to optimistically inflate numbers, while the hostile media will always go with the most conservative figure - or even revert to simply "thousands", which gives little sense of true scale without actually lying!
Based on all the footage I've seen so far, I'm gonna stick my neck out and say 50 - 60,000 at this one event. But that's to say nothing of all the other resistance efforts that happened in the twin cities.

Also do not discount the hyper logical activity that goes completely under the radar.
Brenna Perez has been pointing this out in her own channel. She’s an amazing commenter. She was doing on the on the ground observation and reporting of the hyper local efforts arising from chains of community trust. Terrified immigrants are only trusting people they know, but community members are definitely coming forward to help their neighbors

@Ben Royce 🇺🇦 🇸🇩 I am not using Fox or sthg, yet could you elaborate a bit on which large media are currently reporting rather well, let's say outside a democracy now or msnow kind of scope?
All the best from Berlin, you people be strong! -

I have a No Soliciting sign on my door, which salespeople often ignore, and I get grumpy about it. But, a Sonic fiber internet sales person just came to the door claiming it is now available here and gave me a card for two months free, so I'm slightly less mad about it. Though I suspect it's a lie. They've been sending me flyers for years and every time I check it is not available.
I'm gonna check again, anyway, as I hate the cable company and they're charging me twice as much for slow service.

Prepararsi al pi day 2026
Quest'anno mettere in piedi il Carnevale della Matematica del 14 marzo, che sarà peraltro la 195.ma edizione, non è stato per nulla semplice. Il motivo è che il giorno del pi day sarò sul treno per rientrare da Firenze, dove a partire dall'11 marzo sarà in svolgimento Didacta, fiera della didattica italiana. Ho, quindi, costretto gli altri matematti a inviarmi con congruo anticipo i loro contributi (e nel frattempo ho anche cercato di impostare delle bozze, non sia mai che riesca a raccontarvi qualcosa da Didacta a fine serata!), per cui non ho preparato nessun contenuto video da lanciare in contemporanea o in anteprima al Carnevale. E allora ecco l'idea di proporre in un post apposito un paio di news di MaddMaths! dedicate proprio al pi day e che sarebbero state decisamente vecchie uscendo all'interno del Carnevale:
Tutte le info per segnalare gli eventi dedicati alla Giornata intenazionale della matematica: per questa edizione il tema è Matematica e speranzaInoltre c'è anche una pagina con alcune attività da organizzare per il pi day. All'interno troverete alcune schede in italiano per attività a tema matematico (e pi greco!).Anche se mancano ancora pochi giorni al #piday, c'è comunque ancora un po' di tempo per segnalare eventi o lasciarsi ispirare dalle attività proposte!

@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer
After reading up on this a bit I can semi-confidently say that this branching process with d6s will continue infinitely. The highest chance of it terminating is of course in the first or second roll, but after that chances of terminating become infinitesimally small.
-
@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer hi! It seems like you've stumbled upon the lovely mathematical genre of problem called 'branching processes' and 'extinction probabilities'. I don't know how to calculate this, but I can show you where to look.
Tbis Reddit post had a similar idea to you: https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/s/jH1LzTXROe
This is the wiki page on branching processes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_process?wprov=sfla1

@stefano also, for convenience, the overview page:
-
@mcc @grumpygamer that would be my intuition as well but I'm sure there's a mathematical way to prove it

@mullvadnet Great writeup, raising awareness on this is very important. Mullvad reporting thoroughly on this topic, I appreciate it.
