Moths: we’ll see ourselves out, there’s greener pastures brighter lightbulbs out there.

Material for anyone who wants some:

Humans definitely lean towards the latter than the former

I dunno, seems to have worked out for the chillis - there’s more of them now than ever before

Ah, the White Nationalism to Eugenics to Nazism pipeline is alive and well, it seems.

Donald Trump’s Best, Biggest Country in the World, the Biggest, Juiciest Country there is, you know it, folks, No Illegals Allowed, No Fentanyl, All the Guns! And Covfefe!

And on a more serious note, considering how much of science is doing admin, attempting to get grants, and data science, almost every scientist is very, intimately familiar with maths.

Pick up your bulk stuff ahead of the strike, and visit your local greengrocer or farmer’s market until it’s done.

Hey mate, best of luck with your issue - I can only hope that it resolves after your wife gives birth (congratulations to the two of you!). Private health insurance may be your friend in this case, since I don’t think Medicare will cut it, and best of luck either way.

Hey, I supported Harris - but you can’t ignore the fact that compared to Biden in 2020, Harris’s vote share practically collapsed - and her refusal to actively condemn Israel was a significant part of it.

Well, when neither candidates have meaningful differences on the issue you care the most about, there’s no meaningful reason to vote - that’s what caused the major vote collapse at the election.

Well, those Liberal years seem like they’ll be coming back…

Fair enough, but I automatically wince whenever I see “X Nobel Prize winning-Ys endorse/reject Z”, because as often as not, it’s nonsense…

Ironic, considering how right leaning most farmers are…

Actually, even if the density was constant, the earth would turn into a black hole when it reached about 1.925 * 10^13 times its original mass, since the mass of a black hole is proportional to its radius, whereas the mass of the earth in this scenario grows proportional to radius cubed. This should happen around 371 years (?) after starting.

(Please check my calculations, I’m not 100% sure.)

I personally think we’re on the slope of enlightenment - quantum computing no longer attracts as much hype as it used to, but in the background, there’s a lot of interesting developments that genuinely might be very important.

This makes so much sense to me - Iran joining in would give an invitation to USA, EU, etc. to join in with Israel, and take away focus from Israel’s war crimes and genocide to instead focus on the new bad guy.

Look, I understand your point. And to be fair, they genuinely are reading new ground with reusable rockets. But not only are competitors catching up, cost overruns and time delays do matter in the context of NASA, considering how their budgets keeps getting negatively affected and the Artemis project is suffering setbacks. They don’t have the scope to tolerate what’s happening.

I’m referring to the rockets intended for travelling to the moon and beyond (primarily the Starship), which has already failed thrice, has innumerable issues and massive cost overruns.
