We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Plus it doesn't show up on Doppler radar, so it's not technically raining.

Two minutes before the equalizer, I said: "Stranger things have happened in this competition."

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.

Two decades on, it has generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.

If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.

NIH cancels its first and largest study centered on women The Women’s Health Initiative has produced numerous influential findings

I don't get how anyone can possibly be okay with ending the WHI. This study has accrued decades of data from 42000 women and it is still going. It helps to address critical research gaps that have been allowed to go unfilled because of durable misogyny and provides invaluable insight into aging.

A drawing of a perfect phone that only has three buttons on it, one of them says IS HE DEAD one of them says AM I BROKE and the other one says RELAXING PUZZLE GAME

I invented a new phone to help save time in the morning

A light blue diagram depicting the sea, with the water's surface at the top, and just below it is an outline of the Mary Rose, with the depth (12m, 40ft or 6.7 fathoms). There is a line showing the seabed, which takes a rapid dive into the vertical...

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,

"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"

Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

The cuts "would kill the much-anticipated Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, an observatory seen as on par with [Hubble & JWST] that is already fully assembled and on budget for a launch in two years." Would also apparently close NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Huge, HUGE loss for science.

Photo of the inside of a university building at WUR, it looks like a mix of a greenhouse with offices that have balconies.

ECMWF model forecast for 24 Jan 00Z showing wind gusts >140mph off the southwest of Ireland

Unlike Duo Scottish Gaelic, which continues its reign of madness with "We will swim in maple syrup", "I shouted freedom in the supermarket" and "My parents are ever hopeful".

Bristol scale 6💩. It's the color they use on almost every chart.

So we beat on, boys against the milkshake, borne back ceaselessly into the yard

One time I spent five minutes at lunch drawing a reverse centaur and it became one of my most retweeted pieces of art. I resented that so I deleted it but now it can be free again because not enough people follow me on here for it to go big

Namibia: Live stream in the Namib Desert YouTube video by NamibiaCam

There’s a live you tube channel with the camera trained on a watering hole from the Namib Desert in Namibia.

Around 2-3AM their time if you’re lucky you can catch huge porcupines ambling around.
