He’ll replace them with a new coin produced by a company he owns that’s worth less and costs more to make and will inexplicably be named an “X”, and we’ll have to give prices like “$20.95+2x”

He literally tried to nuke a hurricane. Man wants to go to war against the weather. And the guys who told him “no, you can’t nuke a storm system” aren’t gonna be in the room this time…

This makes a lot of people have trouble photographing the moon—they think “this is an object at night, so I need to increase my exposure”. It’s actually a fairly reflective gray surface in full daylight.

When humanity moved out of Africa, it was always in relatively small groups, so each of those was basically a genetic bottleneck. The millennia since have not been enough for genetic diversity to undo those bottlenecks vs. all of the diversity of the original main group.

Actual answer: There’s a whole class of problems that are hard to find the answer to, but simple to *check* the answer to. Eg, finding all of the prime numbers you need to multiply to get a specific enormous number is hard, but multiplying those numbers together to check your work is easy

She’s playing on the meme of “May you have the confidence of a mediocre white man”. So she was, in fact, yes-anding the above sarcasm (and Hank’s initial joke), not missing it.

I feel uncomfortable about it, because there’s gonna come a time when digital life has at least the same level of conscious self-awareness as biological life and we’re going to treat them really badly because it’s not “really” life.

Yep. Like people saying there’s no legal way for him to suspend the next presidential election entirely. Okay, what’s the move when he does it anyway, and his 5 hand-picked Supreme Court justices say there’s obviously an implied right to do that in the constitution, and the GOP won’t impeach?

Assuming we have elections in 2028, that should work—I expect trump to fuck it up bad enough for a huge backlash like in 2020. The real trick will be to convince people to vote blue again in 2032 when four years isn’t enough to fix all of his fuckups and the vibes are still bad.
