["The Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to John J. Hopfield of Princeton University and Geoffrey E. Hinton of the University of Toronto for discoveries and inventions that formed the building blocks of machine learning underpinning many of today’s most powerful artificial intelligence models."  Well sumbich, the Nobel Prize mavens are finally muscling in on computer science, a field they have ignored for decades.  Now they are claiming that recent advances in AI really fall under the umbrella of physics (come to think of it, doesn't everything?).  Well, this should get them more attention where it's needed.  It will be interesting to watch for the reaction from the computer science folks administering the Turing Award.  gjr]

    Poor desperate MAGA cultist Scott0, I guess you had to dig deep to try to fact check that and parse it to your liking even though the message to Drumpf’s base was loud and clear and you all lapped up the fear and negativity being spewed.
    But it hard to keep up,
    Let’s see what the MAGA cultists have to say about Drumpf’s Oct.13 interview with Maria Bartiromo.
    “Is Trump really saying he would turn the U.S. military on people whose politics he disagrees with? Maybe he misspoke? Maybe he’s joking? Because no candidate could really mean that, right? By the way, if you’re wondering who those enemies are, Trump named Rep. Adam Schiff, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in California.”

    “the message to Drumpf’s base was loud and clear”
    The message was that the fed govt was/is allowing un-vetted rapists and criminals into our country in increasing numbers. You can’t even try to deny it.
    It isn’t a matter of fear – it’s a matter of our govt not doing it’s job. The result is needless rapes, robberies and deaths. I don’t need Trump to tell me this. It was already a fact that the only politician who would talk about it was Trump. That’s why he was so instantly popular.
    And that article is a joke – there are no Trump quotes. And what she said was wrong – was in fact accurate. There are polls showing that Trump is leading in the swing states. And there is something wrong with Kamala.
    Schiff is a liar himself – what credibility does he have?

I mean really, “Sunny Bono”? What are they thinking?
    This puts the Nevada County Republican Party right along side of the likes of Paul Emery and the guy who got tossed from the Del Oro for filming a movie on his phone.

    That being said – I’ve never seen any evidence that Trump is “despicable” and I know you haven’t either.
    Trump can be narcissistic, but you could say that about a lot of people that Mitch does like, so big deal. Now – is Trump stupid? Yeah – that’s how he built a multi billion dollar empire – by being stupid for decades.

He hauled her ass into court and won. She ended up losing big time. Of course she hates him and would gladly lie in court to try to get back at him. Her lawyer was a liar and a thief who took money from his own clients.

    Here’s more wisdom for Scott from his choice for President Donald Trump.
    “She wants to get rid of your cows,” he told supporters in Georgia. “No more cows.”
    “They want to do things like no more cows, and no windows in buildings,” the ex-president told a crowd in Las Vegas. “They have some wonderful plans for this country. Honestly, they’re crazy.”
    “I love cows,” Trump told “Fox & Friends,” in response to a 6-year-old boy’s question about his favorite farm animal. “But if we go with Kamala, you won’t have any cows anymore because we’re not allowed. I don’t want to ruin this kid’s day. I love cows, I think they’re so cute and so beautiful. But according to Kamala, who’s a radical left lunatic, you will not have any cows anymore, so we have to vote her out. If you like cows, you have to vote for me.”

    There is a very real germ of truth in what Trump is warning about. The Dems and the left want restrictions on beef and dairy and much ag in general that will drive up prices on items that they consider to be “bad” for us. It won’t affect the wealthy or powerful politicians – just the folks at the grocery store.
    Just as letting in rapists and murderers has no effect on the ones with tax-payer provided fire-arm equipt protection.

    If this turns out to be true kinda puts all of that democrat whining over Jan 6th in a new light….

    “Veteran Democrat strategist James Carville has appeared on national television and warned the American people President Donald Trump is planning to arrest all “males of color” if he wins the election.
    In addition, Carville, who served as the lead strategist on Bill Clinton’s winning 1992 presidential campaign, called for leftists to launch an armed uprising if Trump beats Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
    The former Clinton strategist also pushed the false claim that Trump has publicly stated he will “use the military to arrest political enemies” and wants “to get rid of the Constitution.”…
    “People want to know about [Harris’ polling] weakness among males of color,” Carville said.
    “Okay? He’s gonna arrest all of ya,” he claimed…
    The Democrat operative then compared the current political environment to pre-WWII and pre-Civil War times.
    “When the Republic was threatened, people picked up arms and answered the call,” Carville said.
    “Or, you know, in 1965 in the middle of the Civil Rights movement, I think people decided they were gonna take matters into their own hands and create a better country and that’s what I hope we do here in the next few weeks,” he finished.”
