@bruces The thing is you can pretty much settle this one with known, published data and some trivial arithmetic. The margin for error is high because of randomness in the real world, but but a single experiment is hardly going to improve on that; if anything it gives you _less_ information. The only reason to actually do this is for the youtube revenue.

@AnnemarieBridy We have a neighborhood cat, not even ours ... technically he belongs to a neighbor ... but we take care of him as best we can, because, well, they don't.

One day, very gently, he brought us a live mouse. Perfectly unharmed. He's never shown any hunting behavior. I don't know what instinct he was following there. (We let the mouse go.) He's about 16 years old. We utterly adore him.

@JamesGleick Be fair, they need to save room above the fold for "Known stutterer Biden stutters".

The UN can and should transfer the former Soviet Union's seat on the Security Council to Ukraine. There is precedent: it transferred China's from the exile government in Taiwan to the PRC's in Beijing.

@AnnemarieBridy Sure, some cats will learn tricks. But why should they? If you love cats, you let them be cats. You don't want them to be dogs.

@EugeneMcParland Throughout the 20th century the Vatican collaborated with every fascist regime in Europe. His Holiness really needs to know when to sit down and shut up.

@elizatech I'd also be inclined to block the camera's view with a note that reads "I'm reporting this AND it's going in my one-star review"

@randahl To be honest, if I could be placed in a medical coma and shipped to my destination in a sealed cannister with a small oxygen supply, I would choose that every time. Nobody coughing in your face or hogging the armrest, no lining up in the aisle to get on and off...

@ct_bergstrom You'd think that they'd at least carefully explain how duckduckgo somehow makes google show you the good search results, but no

@MolemanPeter @Tom_ofB @ct_bergstrom
Go back in time three hours and say that to yourself.

@ct_bergstrom What to you expect from a bunch of breast-toothers. I mean really that's just gross.

An eight-foot security fence is around the entire Capitol complex for the State of the Union address.

This is Trump's legacy.

@randahl Irrespective of all the reasonable concerns about Musk, I'm extremely glad we're using intelligent, reusable craft to move crew to an from the ISS instead of buying rides from Russia on Bronze Age Soyuz crap at around $100M a pop. What a lose-lose proposition that was.

@annaghughes "The state of Kentucky is PROUD to give all its delegates to Vladimir Putin!!" <<rousing cheers, band plays>>

@kravietz

It doesn't matter how secure or hardened the server is, if participants can access it without using end-to-end encryption, which from this description of the vulnerability must have been the case. That's ridiculously insecure and if true there's no reasonable excuse for it: end-to-end encryption is built into every web browser and server, and has been for decades.

@BashStKid @ottocrat
There's that, but more innocently, wherever you go, you take yourself with you, and if you make no effort not to, you will to some extent always convert the new place to the old one.
