It just happens that back in 2014 I made a bunch of Winter Olympic Lolcats. Let's have a look!

I was just thinking about this yesterday. On what day does everyone on Bsky turn 39?

Note also that one prime known in the last series is 1031 1s in a row. If you know this you can tell people you have an 1031 digit prime memorized and then go "1111...." They'll likely walk away, but then they'll also now have an 1031 digit prime memorized.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

I love all the AI commercials telling viewers about shortcuts for life during the Olympics, a sporting event famously known for athletes who have put the hard work in for decades to get where they are.

Darn, I heard the Jays were agonizingly close to getting across the line with IKF

1/7 Can infants recognise the world around them? 👶🧠 As part of the FOUNDCOG project, we scanned 134 awake infants using fMRI. Published today in Nature Neuroscience, our research reveals 2-month-old infants already possess complex visual representations in VVC that align with DNNs.

Wow. This epicycle was so fast that most people won't know Trump even solved his own problem.

Us aviation nerds franticly skimming 14 CFR 21 and 91 looking for loopholes

I'm reminded of an article I once read about a US pilot having an audience with the old king of Jordan. The king asked if the pilot would like a Jordanian pilot's license. Incredulous he asked, "Can you do that?" "I am the king"... he left Jordan with the license

TIL the medieval alchemical lore I picked up by rushing Alpha Chi Sigma in university could be the key to 21st century thrift

More than a year in this has mostly gone as I feared, and in some ways has been worse. But there have been two contrasting surprises:

Our strength isn't our institutions. It's us.

By comparison, the mystery science theater 3000 movie was a smash hit

No one knows the day of His coming but there's a decent parlay forming around Feb 7

Look, the American people clearly voted for it to be 2019 again. So, I’m not sure why everyone is so surprised that the Pats are back in the Super Bowl again.
