Many people ranting about the EU don't know much about the bloody history of this continent (or conveniently ignore it) The EU is barely 30 years old, and its precursor, the EEC, almost 70. Before this project began, there had never been a single 30yr period in recorded history

Interesting asymmetry in AI interactions: You speak faster than you can type But you read faster than you can listen So pure text is slow, and pure voice is slow “Speak and read” seems like the fastest 2 way bitrate we have until brain implants

The Bottom Line: Caffeine is a miracle drug if you use it correctly. - Cycle it - Not on an empty stomach - Combine it with L-Theanine - Never go above 300mg/day - Only drink it in the mornings - Drink some water to stay hydrated - Not within 90 minutes of waking up.

Eccentricity=10. When zooming through a neighborhood you don’t like 😂
Yesterday after my talk at Lowell someone in the audience asked me about ‘Oumuamua - and I ended by saying that with new telescopes coming online we’d expect to find more interstellar objects- well it looks like another candidate is showing an eccentricity of ~10!!!!

So, you probably won't believe how desperate Starliner's flight to the space station got last summer ... https://t.co/Upbeq7Mm3e

Sunsets hit differently on the Moon! More images below of the horizon glow that comes to life just above the Moon’s surface as the sun goes down. This milestone embodies all the achievements from this historic Firefly mission. Thank you #BlueGhost for the final goodbye. Until

I don’t agree with calling the US “America” since America is a continent, not just one country. Ironically, that makes the “Gulf of America” make sense to me..it actually belongs to the whole continent, not just Mexico or the US. But anyway..
For those disconnected from reality, here for example from wikipedia:
