This is very well done, like the rest of the #Dinosauria episodes. Great #animation, impeccable #paleontology—or history of paleontology, in this case—and a story about predator-prey conflict that doesn't end the way you expect. I recommend the entire series. youtube.com/watch?v=OH57rtnKCE

The Crystal Palace #dinosaurs don't look like anything that's ever lived on Earth, but they do look like something that *could* have lived. In retrospect, they're a lot more believable than the upright tail-draggers that dominated #paleoart for most of the following century! So it's good to see them brought to life, even briefly. Somewhere in the #multiverse ...

So, there is another Tundraverse novel coming, but in the meanwhile, if you're looking for a hit of Dr. Maximilian Tundra, check out this short set in his world(s):

geni.us/bozovirus

In which three different versions of Max encounter the bozo virus for the first time.

In the next printing of Sapiens its author may want to reconsider the claim that #relativity isn't a #religion. There are many #science #gods that #physics venerates as #animist #supernatural phenomena: #darkmatter, #darkenergy, #antimatter, #muon and #higgsboson #particles; a #blackhole, the #bigbang, #multiverse and #quantumphysics* are all effectively a #belief #system.

As someone once replied to me, dismissively: "I only believe in the Standard Model"

(*Note I said quantum "physics")

The fact that certain people are alive is absolute proof that no one in our timeline ever invents time travel.

@codewiz I've argued that confirmation bias has become a pillar of modern #science. Otherwise we wouldn't still have these fallacies of #darkmatter, #stringtheory, and the #multiverse.

Part of the problem is if you don't make a: (1) falsifiable and (2) prediction all you're left with is proverbially searching under a street light for the keys to your tenure promotion (or Nobel prize!)

The #Multiverse defence of #AIBullshit*:

It hasn't happened in this universe, it has happened in another.

*I considered;
"hallucinations" - no, those are subjective experiences of the hallicinator,
"Lies" - AI has no intent,
"Wrongness" - the product does not match reality & does not conform to ethical standards in many ways, "wrongness" is too general,
"Inaccuracies" - the product is being produced accurately, it is accurate, it is the user who is misusing the product,
so #AIBullshit.

#PennedPossibilities 645. What was the most unexpected challenge you encountered while writing your WIP?

Juggling a #multiverse takes oomph you aren't even aware of until you're down in the trenches. And #fantasy #worldbuilding ain't no joke.
