Modified slide from microbial science presentation "Theory - Spontaneous Generation" "Until the early 19th century, people generally believed in the "Spontaneous Generation of life from non-living matter. Due to early experiments, this idea was disproved • Francisco Redi (1668) - Rotten Meat Experiment • Louis Pasteur (1864) - Curved Flask Experiment
Enlarged view of illustration; 3 beakers. Left beaker, uncorked, with red meat inside it.

Some seniors remain". Right beaker, corked with "AI". Red meat, all flies dead. Caption "Later..."

Begging all of u, especially non-students, to write/contact ur MPP, Post-Sec Minister Nolan Quinn, & Premier Ford. They need to hear that all of us care about education, & that students are our future
A friend points out: “Doug Ford has long been obsessed with Chicago. The largest convention Center in North America is a lakeside convention Center south of downtown. So similar to Ex.”
The ideas aren’t unique or original. Much like his call to turn Niagara Falls into Vegas.
Derivative.

It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff. In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast

reading about Iran depleting expensive missile defense systems with cheap drones and remembering the time America did war games and Marine Corps Lieutenant General Paul K. Van Riper was winning by using massed cheap attacks so they changed the rules to get the outcome they wanted

People get in my face about “those scofflaw bikers” while there’s not a motorist out there who doesn’t help themselves to little red light running or speeding or non-signaling or cell phone tapping as a treat
It’s no mistake that I find “authoritarian” and “totalitarian” to be useless terms but nothing shows that more than recent days. Somehow a country led by a faction actively undermining democratic safeguards wantonly blackbagging people and murdering them in the street doesn’t qualify as either.
