Read More..After months of warning you about the GOPs chronic overconfidence problem, now Im feeling overconfident! Inasmuch as I will be giving a speech at my alma mater, Cornell University, the day after the election, Im about to do something very stupid: make an election prediction.
My reasoning is, here we are, three weeks from the election, and this week, two major polls,Harvard Harris and Times Sienna,suddenly show Republicans gaining ground. This triggered a primordial memory from the 1980 election, the first presidential race I paid attention to.
Thats when I discovered the iron rule of election polls: They will never, ever be wrong in favor of Republicans. Another is that polls will generally show the Democrat winning until the election gets close and the media finally start telling the truth.
Thus, for example, after being hectored for most of 1980 that Ronald Reagan was headed for another Goldwater-style fiasco, heres the sort of thing a teenager would have read in The New York Times weeks before he won a landslide victory against President Jimmy Carter, taking 489 electoral college votes to Carters 49.

Oct. 23, 1980: Poll Shows President Has Pulled To Even Position With Reagan
In mid-September, the Times Anthony Lewis painted a vivid picture of Reagans coming annihilation, citing a bunch of state polls:
A recent New York Times poll of registered likely voters [in New York] showed Carter leading Reagan, 44 to 38.
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 47; CARTER: 44
In Washington state, a poll for the Carter campaign put the president ahead by 3 points against Reagan.
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 50; CARTER: 37
In Illinois, a poll for Carters campaign put him ahead by 5 points.
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 50; CARTER 48.
In Connecticut, a Hartford Courant poll showed: Reagan 36, Carter 35.
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 48; CARTER: 39
A month later, the Times produced yet more polls of gloom:
Oct. 9, 1980 headline: Texas Looming As A Close Battle Between President And Reagan
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 55%; CARTER: 41%
Oct. 16, 1980, headline: Ohio Race Expected To Be Close As Labor Mobilizes For President
ACTUAL RESULT: REAGAN: 52, CARTER 41
And then Reagan won more electoral college votes than any non-incumbent in history. Youd think the polls would have picked up on the fact that history was about to be made. Nope!
This is not just an enjoyable stroll down memory lane, though it is that. It is to remind Republican-leaning voters, even in seemingly blue strongholds like New York, Oregon and Washington, to please vote. Because, win or lose, one thing polls willneverdo is overestimate a Republicans chances.

For some mysterious reason, election polls were pretty accurate in the 2004, 2008 and 2012 elections. Perhaps pollsters had gotten better. Maybe they noticed that people sometimesdolook back at their forecasts. Or it could be that Republicans were running such losers those years that it would be nearly impossible for anyone to underestimate their performance.
But, boy, did the pollsters make up for any inadvertent honesty when Donald Trump ran in 2016!
The Times had the best pollsters in the business and sophisticated computer modeling. Based on their high-tech number-crunching, on Oct. 18, the paper reported: Hillary has a 91% chance to win. On Election Day, the forecasters were a little less exuberant, announcing that Hillary had a mere 85% chance of winning. A Trump victory, the Times said, was as likely as an NFL kicker miss[ing] a 37-yard field goal.
We know how that turned out.
On Election Day 2020, Timess forecasters exulted that Joe Biden was ahead by more than 8 points nationwide the largest lead a candidate has held in the final polls since Bill Clinton in 1996.
He won by 4 points.
Maybe its not a wild and reckless prediction, but the news this week suggests that the media are slowly edging up to the truth, and that Republicans could be on track to well outperform the polls.
This would be a good year for it. The Senate map, combined with five GOPs retiring, make 2022 a tough year for Republicans, who aredefendingseats in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida and North Carolina, and trying to flip at least one state out of Nevada, Arizona and Georgia for a bare majority.
But Republicans winning requires that voters not be discouraged by the polls andremember to vote, even when the media tell you its hopeless, like in New York, Arizona and Pennsylvania.
Mostly, I just want to wake up the morning after the election and find out Dr. Mehmet Oz has won in Pennsylvania and defeated that slovenly, goatee-sporting Michael Moore-wannabe, John Fetterman, who is passionate about only two things: not bathing and releasing vicious murderers. And that Lee Zeldin has beaten the demented, release all the criminals! New York governor, Kathy Hochul, with the crazy Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? makeup.
Then,the world will make sense again.

Ann Coulter is apparently engaged (again) and the internet responds ...
For months, far-right author Ann Coulter has been saying that the Republican Party needs toabandon former President Donald Trumpand look to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for the 2024 election. And with Trump having officially announced that he is seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, Coulter is doubling down on her assertion that Trump has become a major liability for the GOP.
Coulter isn't the only well-known Republican who is hoping that Trump won't be the GOP's next presidential nominee. Others include Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr, Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah and media mogul Rupert Murdoch.
During alate November discussion on SubStack, Coulter argued, "No, don't tell me, 'Oh, you're voting for Mitch McConnell or Romney if you're for DeSantis.' No, DeSantis is the true right-winger. Trump is the j*****s RINO."
Coulter, during the conversation, pushed back against the view that Trump maintains a firm grip on the Republican Party even after its many disappointments in the 2022 midterms which found a long list of Trump-backed MAGA candidates losing to Democrats.
"He is so done," Coulter remarked. "He is on his last legs. There are so few Trump diehards. Trump won't be the nominee."
One anti-Trump conservative who clearly doesn't share that view is Lincoln Project co-founder and former GOP strategist Rick Wilson. The Never Trumper, during alate November interview with The Guardian, predicted that Trump will be the Republican Party's 2024 nominee and crush DeSantis in the primary.
Wilson told The Guardian, "Has Ron DeSantis been to the rodeo? Has he been out there in the fight? Has he actually faced up against a full campaign of the brutality and the cruelty that Donald Trump will level against him? He has not. It's like he's walked onto the field onto third base and thought he hit a grand slam home run. Even Trump in a weakened state still has an innate feral sense of cruelty and cunning that Ron DeSantis does not have."
Wilson commented that whenever a pundit claims that the GOP is ready to move on from Trump, it doesn't happen. "I've just been to this f*****g party too many times now," Wilson told The Guardian.
Interviewed by Newsweek, Coulter compared Trump's 2024 campaign to his activities in 2012.
Coulter told Newsweek, "They've been saying, 'It's 2016, again' through three losing election cycles. No, it's 2012, again. That's when Trump tried to run for president by activating the crazies, crashed and burned. 2016 was the exception, when instead of birtherism or a stolen election he ran on my book, 'Adios, America!' Then, he blew off his promises on immigration, and went right back to his losing streak."

He is so done: Ann Coulter trashes Trump over election losing streak ...
Right-wing pundit Ann Coulter has dismissed former President Donald Trump as a viable Republican leader, describing him as a "jacka** RINO" and insisting that "he's so done."
Trump has faced growing opposition from conservative media and some prominent Republicans in the aftermath of the 2022 midterms. Many of the candidates Trump endorsed failed to win in key battleground states during a year when Republicans were projected to easily defeat Democrats. Instead, the GOP failed to take control of the Senate, lost several high-profile governor races and only won the House by the slimmest of margins.
Coulter, who was previously a staunch supporter of the former president, has readily criticized Trump since he was still serving in the White House. The right-wing pundit's criticism has continued in the wake of the midterms earlier this month.
"Let's do it issue by issue, Trump versus [Republican Florida Governor Ron] DeSantis," Coulter said in a recent video discussion on her Substack, which she posted a portion of to Twitter on Saturday. The conservative commentator said that Trump backed COVID-19 lockdowns, whereas DeSantis kept his state open.
She cheered DeSantis for opposing vaccine mandates as well as mask mandates. "DeSantis is the true right-winger, Trump is the jacka** RINO," Coulter said, using the acronym meaning "Republican in name only" to describe the former president.
Coulter went on to say Trump is "so done. "He is on his last legs." She also said that "there are so few Trump diehards," contending that the former president won't be the Republican Party's nominee in 2024.
While many prominent conservatives have turned against Trump, or softened their support for him in the wake of the midterms, some of his allies have suggested this won't stop him. They have compared the situation to 2016, when the GOP establishment was largely opposed to Trump before he pulled off win after win in the party's presidential primariesultimately becoming the party's nominee.
Coulter, however, rejected this assessment in a Sunday morning email to Newsweek.
"They've been saying, 'It's 2016, again!' through three losing election cycles. No, it's 2012, again. That's when Trump tried to run for president by activating the crazies, crashed and burned," Coulter told Newsweek. "2016 was the exception, wheninstead of Birtherism or a stolen electionhe ran on my book, Adios, America! Then he blew off his promises on immigration, and went right back to his losing streak."
Newsweek reached out to Trump's press representatives for comment.
Trump, in 2012, considered launching a GOP presidential campaign as he strongly opposed former Democratic President Barack Obama. However, he eventually chose to forego the idea, saying he preferred to remain in the private sector.
Coulter was one of Trump's most outspoken supporters in 2016. She wrote a book entitled In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome! However, she began to turn against the former president after his promise to build a southern border wall in a bid to prevent undocumented immigration failed to materialize.
The former president has faced further criticism after he had dinner at his Mar-a-Lago resort home with rapper and fashion designer Kanye West and white nationalist Nick Fuentes last Tuesday. West, who is Black, has recently drawn substantial backlash for his antisemitic comments and for wearing a White Lives Matter T-shirt at a fashion show.
The rapper has announced his intention to run for president in 2024, as has Trump. After the meeting with the former president, West said he asked Trump to be his running mate. Meanwhile, many prominent GOP officials have blasted Trump for meeting with Fuentes, who has long faced condemnation from Democrats and Republicans over his antisemitic and white supremacist views. Trump contends that he didn't know who Fuentes was.
Meanwhile, as Coulter alluded to, DeSantis continues to be touted as a strong Republican alternative to Trump. While many of Trump's preferred candidates lost in the midterm, the Florida governor won reelection with a nearly 20-point margin, with Republicans performing exceptionally well in the state. Although DeSantis has not announced a 2024 presidential campaign, several polls have already shown him leading Trump for the GOP nomination in the wake of the November 8 election.

In a different corner of the social media universe, someone left comments on a link to Tuesday's post about quantum randomness declaring that they weren't aware of any practical applications of quantum physics. There's a kind ofLife of Brian absurdity to posting this on the Internet, which is a giant world-spanning, life-changing practical application of quantum mechanics. But just to make things a little clearer, here's a quick look at some of the myriad everyday things that depend on quantum physics for their operation.
Computers and Smartphones

At bottom, the entire computer industry is built on quantum mechanics. Modern semiconductor-based electronics rely on the band structure of solid objects. This is fundamentally a quantum phenomenon, depending on the wave nature of electrons, and because we understand that wave nature, we can manipulate the electrical properties of silicon. Mixing in just a tiny fraction of the right other elements changes the band structure and thus the conductivity; we know exactly what to add and how much to use thanks to our detailed understanding of the quantum nature of matter.
Stacking up layers of silicon doped with different elements allows us to make transistors on the nanometer scale. Millions of these packed together in a single block of material make the computer chips that power all the technological gadgets that are so central to modern life. Desktops, laptops, tablets, smartphones, even small household appliances and kids' toys are driven by computer chips that simply would not be possible to make without our modern understanding of quantum physics.
Lasers and Telecommunications

Unless my grumpy correspondent was posting from the exact server hosting the comment files (which would be really creepy), odds are very good that comment took a path to me that also relies on quantum physics, specifically fiber optic telecommunications. The fibers themselves are pretty classical, but the light sources used to send messages down the fiber optic cables are lasers, which are quantum devices.
The key physics of the laser is contained in a 1917 paper Einstein wrote on the statistics of photons (though the term "photon" was coined later) and their interaction with atoms. This introduces the idea of stimulated emission, where an atom in a high-energy state encountering a photon of the right wavelength is induced to emit a second photon identical to the first. This process is responsible for two of the letters in the word "laser," originally an acronym for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation."
Any time you use a laser, whether indirectly by making a phone call, directly by scanning a UPC label on your groceries, or frivolously to torment a cat, you're making practical use of quantum physics.
Atomic Clocks and GPS
TO GO WITH AN AFP STORY BY ISABELLE TOUSSAINT A woman holds her smartphone next to her dog wearing a... [+] GPS system on its collar in La Celle-Saint-Cloud on July 1, 2015.

One of the most common uses of Internet-connected smart phones is to find directions to unfamiliar places, another application that is critically dependent on quantum physics. Smartphone navigation is enabled by the Global Positioning System, a network of satellites each broadcasting the time. The GPS receiver in your phone picks up the signal from multiple clocks, and uses the different arrival times from different satellites to determine your distance from each of those satellites. The computer inside the receiver then does a bit of math to figure out the single point on the surface of the Earth that is that distance from those satellites, and locates you to within a few meters.
This trilateration relies on the constant speed of light to convert time to distance. Light moves at about a foot per nanosecond, so the timing accuracy of the satellite signals needs to be really good, so each satellite in the GPS constellation contains an ensemble of atomic clocks. These rely on quantum mechanics-- the "ticking" of the clock is the oscillation of microwaves driving a transition between two particular quantum states in a cesium atom (or rubidium, in some of the clocks).
Any time you use your phone to get you from point A to point B, the trip is made possible by quantum physics.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Images showing combinations of data and graphics were collected. (AP Photo/Keith Srakocic)
The transition used for atomic clocks is a "hyperfine" transition, which comes from a small energy shift depending on how the spin of an electron is oriented relative to the spin of the nucleus of the atom. Those spins are an intrinsically quantum phenomenon (actually, it comes in only when you include special relativity with quantum mechanics), causing the electrons, protons, and neutrons making up ordinary matter behave like tiny magnets.
This spin is responsible for the fourth and final practical application of quantum physics that I'll talk about today, namely Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The central process in an MRI machine is called Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (but "nuclear" is a scary word, so it's avoided for a consumer medical process), and works by flipping the spins in the nuclei of hydrogen atoms. A clever arrangement of magnetic fields lets doctors measure the concentration of hydrogen appearing in different parts of the body, which in turn distinguishes between a lot of softer tissues that don't show up well in traditional x-rays.
So any time you, a loved one, or your favorite professional athlete undergoes an MRI scan, you have quantum physics to thank for their diagnosis and hopefully successful recovery.
So, while it may sometimes seem like quantum physics is arcane and remote from everyday experience (a self-inflicted problem for physicists, to some degree, as we often over-emphasize the weirder aspects when talking about quantum mechanics), in fact it is absolutely essential to modern life. Semiconductor electronics, lasers, atomic clocks, and magnetic resonance scanners all fundamentally depend on our understanding of the quantum nature of light and matter.
But, you know, other than computers, smartphones, the Internet, GPS, and MRI, what has quantum physics ever done for us?

What Has Quantum Mechanics Ever Done For Us? - Forbes
Read More..Quantum computers will make enormous computing power available to solve certain problem classes. They are built from quantum bits (individual atoms, ions, photons or quantum electronic circuits) and exploit superposition and entanglement, to solve problems we could never solve otherwise. That includes, for example, processing vast amounts of data faster than ever before to search databases, solve equations, and recognise patterns. They may even have the potential to train artificial intelligence systems, e.g. for digital assistants that help doctors to diagnose diseases and suggest the most promising therapy, or to optimise the routes of all cars in a city simultaneously to avoid traffic jams and reduce emissions.
Closely related to quantum computers are quantum simulators. They will be key to the design of new chemicals, from drugs to fertilisers for future medicine and agriculture, and of new materials, such as high-temperature superconductors for energy distribution without losses. Closely related to quantum computers are quantum simulators. They will be key to the design of new chemicals, from drugs to fertilisers for future medicine and agriculture, and of new materials, such as high-temperature superconductors for energy distribution without losses. Some quantum simulators are specialised quantum computers. Others imitate the idea of a wind tunnel: while there, small models are used to understand the aerodynamics cars or planes, some quantum simulators use simple model quantum systems (such as an array of single atoms) to understand systems that would be even more difficult to experiment with.
Quantum communication will help protect the increasing amounts of citizens data transmitted digitally, for instance health records and financial transactions. A typical implementation of quantum networks uses single photons. If anything intercepts a single photon it will be noticed, meaning that with quantum technology we can achieve the most secure form of communication known, impossible to intercept without detection. For point-to-point communication, this is already on the market today and will be developed further into a quantum internet.
Besides Quantum Communication, Quantum sensors will arguably be the basis for the first applications of Quantum Technologies. They provide the most accurate measurements and will drastically increase the performance of consumer devices and services, from medical diagnostics and imaging to high-precision navigation, to future applications in the Internet of Things. Quantum sensors use similar technologies as quantum computers and networks: they detect the tiniest disturbances because they are based on e.g., single electrons, the smallest possible charges and magnets. Quantum metrology uses quantum sensors to define the standards for e.g. time-keeping or electrical measurements.

Introduction to Quantum physics - Quantum Technology
Read More..Lets start with the definition. Hiraeth is an untranslatable Welsh word that describes a longing for a home, a place, or a feeling that no longer exists or never existed.
Its a homesickness for the places from your past you cant return to or even those youve never been to. Hiraeth can also mean nostalgia for your past self, the people who are long gone, or the emotions you used to feel.
But it can also describe a sense of yearning for imaginary places, feelings, and people for example, the ones you read about. Sometimes, it feels as if you suddenly take a glance into your previous life and connect with the people and things that existed long ago or, at least, could have existed.
Hiraeth is a perfect example of a comprehensive term that is impossible to explain with just one or two words. And everyone who is familiar with this rare word puts their own meaning into it.
Old souls and deep thinkers are among those people who know what Hiraeth is better than anyone. These individuals are more prone to feelings of nostalgia and unexplained sadness.
According to the ideas of New Age spirituality, old souls are believed to be more intuitive, better connected with their inner self, and more likely to remember their past lives. If you relate to these beliefs, you could regard Hiraeth as a connection to your previous reincarnations.
In this case, its a feeling of longing for the places that were your home, the people who were your family, and the things you did in your past lives. Its just one way to view this emotional state.
If we go with logic, a person with an old souls characteristics translates into a deep-thinking introvert. Its someone who is highly contemplative, a dreamer, and an abstract thinker.
Such people are prone to feeling pensive or sad for no obvious reason. They think about their past often and immerse themselves in fantasy worlds.
No surprise that they may sometimes feel an unexplainable yearning for imaginary places and people. They also have the habit of overanalyzing their past, so they can feel nostalgia for the home they used to live in or the experiences they used to have.
All these are examples of Hiraeth.
We all have felt this emotional state at some point in our lives, but most of us had no idea that there was a name for it. The best example of Hiraeth is the feeling you get when staring into the starry sky.
Its an unexplainable longing, but you dont know what or who you long for. The stars in the sky look so distant, and yet, it feels as if they are calling you. Is it some kind of lost homeland trying to reach out from a faraway galaxy or is it the stardust speaking inside you and reviving your connection with the universe?
Im sure that you are familiar with this feeling, even though its difficult to explain. You can also experience Hiraeth while looking into the sea or the ocean. The boundless surface of the water, the reflection of the sky, and the unreachable horizon.
What is there beyond it? Its the lands youve never stepped on, the lights of the cities youve never seen, and the foreign air youve never breathed.
This is when you start to feel an inexplicable yearning for the places youve never been to and are not sure they even exist. Maybe they are just a product of your imagination.
Have you felt this emotional state? If yes, then what is Hiraeth for you? Id love to hear about your experiences.
