If you have a problem,
if no one else can help,
and if you can find them,
maybe you can hire…

Felix Klein lectured “On Hilbert’s first note on the foundations of physics" at the Mathematical Society of Göttingen #OTD in 1918. He included excerpts from letters in which he and Hilbert give priority to Emmy Noether’s results on conservation of energy in general relativity. (1/n) 🧪 ⚛️ 👩‍🔬

A shake-up of the dinosaur family tree! Rhabdodontids are not ornithopods. They are ceratopsians.

There were horned dinosaurs in Europe! As shown by a new fossil of Ajkaceratops from Hungary!

Check out our new study, led by @tweetisaurus.bsky.social ⤵️

If you would like to embrace Weizenbaum Thought, the Internet Archive is one of the only convenient ways to read "Computer Power and Human Reason: From Judgement to Calculation," which is criminally out of print

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

"Proper application of GDPR against online advertising technology firms would do away with the vast data breach at the heart of the industry. Consent pop-ups would become largely obsolete."
As we write in The Guardian this morning, the Commission’s plan to gut EU digital rules will hurt Europe’s startups and give U.S. tech an unassailable advantage, confirming Europe as a digital vassal.
Piece by George Riekeles and I.

by the end of s2, pulaski has meaningful, individual connections with picard, data, geordi and worf. she clearly was the more interesting character.
Pulaski is the only one who takes Data seriously. He insists his feelings can't be hurt and she takes him at his word while everyone else treats him with kid gloves. Doubting him only pushes Data to greatness, and subsequently Pulaski ends up being one of his best friends.

This astronomical snake thing is my most distant observation to date! You're peering beyond our Local Group at the "Rose Galaxies", 350 million light years away.

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖
