First time I saw the North Lights in person I also expected something other than complete silence. I don’t know what, but they’re so surreal and massive I thought you’d hear something.

We should have approximately 3 pi days

But observing the cat with the flashlight fundamentally affects the cat.

There are a couple great video essays by Bobby Broccoli on YouTube where they dive into the history of people who faked human cloning and discovering a new element

Wait but this is actually really cool. The Algorithms is a collection of common algorithms written in a variety of languages as a learning resource.

Looks like it’s fake. This research paper shows a more normal skeleton, though they do apparently lack ribs and a pelvis.

Poe’s law: on the internet, it’s nearly impossible to tell.

This is completely understandable. The solution isn’t another car, it’s better city planning and public transit.

I know it’s a lot more complexity, but I wish we just had edit history for everything. You edited your comment? Easy enough for someone to go back and see that you didn’t change your meaning. You changed your opinion? Edit your post’s content and people will still know the context of the replies.

That’s a weird AI generated monkey picture.

That’s an awesome thread
