This is basically a travel ban on lower income countries. Goodbye tourism.

Nuke reactors are the last piece of the puzzle. We still have to figure out radiation shielding, building an actual base on the moon, materials transport, fuel manufacturing, long term food sustainability etc etc. Nuke reactors are a comparatively known quantity.

This is basically a Black Mirror episode.

No but really. There’s a transatlantic crossing on the Queen Mary 2 that looks lovely. We almost took it!

Teleporting swallows obviously

This is awesome. I was recently in Sweden and they are a good bunch.

Agree completely. I work in professional services (we are building a custom AI model) and the amount of people that believe that AI is magic dust is just staggering. The bubble has to burst at some point,

Creating Professional Looking Powerpoints in R Is there a good way to use data from R and a package like ReporteRs to generate complete Powerpoints? I have about 900 slides to create. Our analysts currently follow this path: DB --> SAS --> CSV...

There are a couple R packages that can do this for you. Obviously you need to be comfortable with R but I feel like the LLM hype has made folks forget about the more classic and powerful data science tools we have at our disposal.

Stay away from the bad place. There be ghoulies there.

This makes me physically ill. Disgusting. Utterly utterly disgraceful. Words cannot describe this fucking mess.

Now I can’t unsee some alternate future Soviets making a sickle shaped destroyer and it having some weird weakness like the inner curve is unshielded of some shit like that

Wow you actually did it. Respect.

Funny story. I actually live opposite the US embassy in London. Didn’t even plan it like that.

I would be a very willing blind taste tester. For science of course.

To be fair it’s Waitrose so it’s probably pretty good!

We saw an ‘American diner’ in a small British sea town and it really it such a caricature.

All of this. Bluesky often feels like yelling into my own bubble but I don’t care. It makes me feel a little better.

Maybe but the guy is definitely a Nazi. Take from his Twitter. There’s plenty more like it.

‘This is not stalking. This is journalism!’

We recently discovered that my wife is likely AuADHD (I’m neurotypical). This is a really helpful thread, I’ve been trying to understand things from her perspective, this helps!

Hey chat. Is this bad?

I just want to know the deal with that cat and what it’s doing.

I’m sorry. But did you ask ChatGPT to verify that statistic?

This is Fox News 24/7. It has melted the minds of millions of Americans. Be warned.

Excellent local reporting. What a wild ride.

Good god. ChatGPT is an SCP. I knew it. Perfect meta motive. An AI scp that makes people insane by talking about scps.

I mean the science can we do with them is incredible. But with great power comes great responsibility…

We learnt about a tragic death where a wheelchair was rolled into the room while a kid was in the machine. The chair had a small fire extinguisher on it and it got pulled out of the chair and into the machine with the kid in it.

The thing about MRI machines is that the super cooled magnets are always on. Movies and tv showing people happily wondering around without precautions with regards to Ferris metals no doubt reinforces this behavior. I had to be safety trained just to run research studies using fMRI.

Well this is not great.
