@energiessoer @haprho And he used Newton’s law of universal gravitation to do it. So, in a very real sense, eclipse prediction only really became possible after heliocentrism was accepted.

Interesting that other outlets are correcting/retracting their reports on your story:
londoncentric.media
Thames Water asked a team of researchers to estimate the number of people living in the capital. They explain their bafflement when it ended up on the front pages.

I'd like to know how you can justify the headline presented on your article.

..."was never intended to address the legality of the populations, but rather address the issues of ‘Hidden and Transient Populations’", which their website defines per the image below.

Incorrect on multiple fronts. a) it was hilarious b) it was free speech c) you chose to stop the event by storming off in a huff you humourless self-important moron
What happened last night was not funny. Far-left activists disrupted the event, which then had to be stopped for security reasons. This is done to intimidate people and suppress free speech. I won't stand for it. Would we see the same reaction if the activists were far-right?

Well, it’s been something, but I’m done with Elon’s nonsense. I’ll be on Mastodon if anyone wants to talk to me.

Please can everyone shut up about their iPhone batteries. You’ve been using it for a year, congrats, the battery is ageing. It’s what happens.

This is unhinged colonialist fart sniffing.
I find the notion of “uncontacted tribes” a bit troubling. We have chosen to intentionally shield certain people from the realities - and benefits - of technological civilisation because we think it’s best for them. What Hunter gatherer society have, given a free choice, adopted

NEW: America is a rich country. Britain is a poor country with one wealthy region. People love to compare the UK to Mississippi, but it’s far more informative to look at UK subnationally, too. London ranks fairly well, the rest of the country does not 👉 https://t.co/xrIzwYGaCI

There’s nothing left for schools to cut. Fun fact, the UK government now spends almost as much per year on debt interest as it does on education. £116bn this year we’re just pissing up the wall because of tory mismanagement.
Chancellor says schools and hospitals must make savings to fund recommended pay rises.

(🧵) This is the story of how far-right snowflakes afraid of free speech and facts—obsessed, instead, with their Big Important Feelings and using speech to brutalize others—destroyed Twitter. I hope you’ll follow along and share this to the extent the Musk Algorithm allows it.

Everyone wondering why scientists ignore these “debate me bros.” Here’s what happened when I, and a few colleagues, made arrangements to debate Steve Kirsch and his claims on vaccine myocarditis. I was to talk about the GMP regulatory problems of his claim

Tech bro turned antivaxxer Steve Kirsch threatens to dox and sue Dr. Jonathan E. Canuck, becoming a litigious bully.
