(Thread) In the first What If? book, I answered a question about cooking a steak by dropping it from space. At one point, I commented—jokingly!—that if anyone put a steak in a hypersonic wind tunnel to gather better data, I’d love to see the video.
Well, I have good news.

@scalzi hello real cat minion.
Just remember when Elon Musk says he is for “free speech”, he means the speech he likes. https://www.forbes.com/sites/dereksaul/2022/12/14/twitter-suspends-account-tracking-elon-musks-private-jet/

Some technical problems at Griffith with the high magnification optics but the final few seconds of #Mars' ingress made it into the live stream - thank you so much for this service! Especially since we in Europe had to wait for another 2 1/2 hours for 'our' ingress. ;-)
Tonight the Moon passed between us and the planet Mars. At the last minute I decided to try to get pictures despite the below zero temperatures. Here's one of the good ones.

We have developed a python package for complex membrane engineering tasks. The key aspect here was to validate the algorithms against real published reliable experimental data to increase the reliability of the package. We are trying to get more visibility, please consider starring the Project!

Conservatives were furious when a baker had to bake a cake for a gay couple. But now they want to force Apple to host content it finds harmful and dangerous?
Make it make sense.
Borrowed from Reddit, an easy form for your end of the semester “extra credit” requests.

When people travel to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something small.
Few people think that they can radically change the future by doing something small in the present.
This is the only real time travel paradox.

Elon Musk plans to reinstate nearly ALL previously banned Twitter accounts — to the alarm of activists and online trust and safety experts. The decision will have dangerous consequences, particularly for vulnerable communities. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/11/24/twitter-musk-reverses-suspensions/ #twitter #twittermigration #tech #technology #elon #TwitterMigrate
