From my friend:
"I opted out of Dominos selling of my info. Not only did it take 4 different screens, 1 email, 1 SMS, and 6 business days, they got back to me with this message."
How can that even be legal. We will continue to sell your data if you clear your cookies?

Yesterday, we also had the
@uwmadphysics.bsky.social Physics
Fair. Great job @scientistsarah.bsky.social organizing it all!

Here we can see @garrettmerz.bsky.social, who works with me at @uwdsi.bsky.social, manning the Cloud Chamber exhibit!

Finally wrapped up the Wonders of Physics show at @uwmadphysics.bsky.social!

Was able to get a photo with Dr. Hayden. Dr. Carla Hayden is the 14th Librarian of Congress and the first woman and African American to hold the position! She’s a trailblazer in making knowledge and history accessible to everyone. @librarycongress.bsky.social

Whoops, looks like this is Santa!

Looks like Santa is here at the @librarycongress.bsky.social Holiday Celebration.

Frozen lake with 2 people on it.

Looks like the Madison lakes have frozen over.

Big USB Hub lobbies hard against this.

Oh for real? I’m surprised you didn’t know! Will definitely let you know if we’re headed East side next time!

The second one is the Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT). A vacuum tube where electrons are accelerated and deflected to create images on a fluorescent screen. Once central to TVs and monitors, it was originally key to J. J. Thomson’s experiments that helped discover the electron!

The first one is the Photoelectric Effect! Einstein proposed that photons come in packets with a specific energy. If the energy is large enough, it can knock an electron loose. This discovery helped him win a Nobel prize and is now easily replicated across the globe.

On to the next event for today!

As a @uwmadphysics.bsky.social Outreach Fellow, I’m at Madison East High School performing a couple modern physics experiments with other Fellows.

Excited to host the UW–Madison NSF HDR ML Challenge kickoff meeting today with the WI IceCube Particle Astrophysics Center. The challenge: develop algorithms that can identify subtle differences and anomalies across three datasets. Thanks to all who participated! @uwmadscience.bsky.social

That’s Josh from A3D3 explaining the 3 challenges! I can peep @kylecranmer.bsky.social there too. 👀

@garrettmerz.bsky.social is here hiding just outside the photo.

A lot of people from UW Computer Science, Statistics, and @uwmadphysics.bsky.social! @uwdsi.bsky.social @uwmadscience.bsky.social

I'll be cohosting the NSF HDR Machine Learning Challenge UW-Madison kickoff event later today with Josh Peterson from A3D3 at the UW Data Science Institute.

Sounds good! Sent you a PM.

Oh I’m down to spar!

New to the app, as many are I'm guessing. Who are the best people to follow for #geeky stuff, #gaming, #tech, and #science?
