Why am I here, what am I about?

I want to communicate.
I want to understand.
I want to learn.
& I want to build bridges across divides.

Let's talk!


Also, I made a thingy:

If anyone here have expertise in radiometric dating, or know someone who does.

I'd like to know what you think of this analog to U-Pb decay in zircon crystals.

Let's test knowledge of statistics.
If we have a test for infection with virus Q.
& a test with 95% true-posetive rate.
If we test positive, that indicates that we:
-are infected.
-95% chance we are infected.
-5% chance we are infected.
-not enough information.

If there is one none science, none religion, work I think anyone interested in the topic of theism & atheism should read, it must be 'The prince' by Machiavelli.
But it is important to also read about his life as well.

#Atheism #Theism.

(I wonder if hashtags will work here)

As I'm writing my new book, I keep looking into communication, & have new talks with various exciting people about it.
& it continuously baffles me how the topic can be both simple & complex.
How the a response can seem natural & solve everything for some, & be out of place & destructive for others.

So, instead of a "trending tab", users can set up and curate their own feeds. For example, the birds feed is moderated by a single person who adds accounts to the feed. Any added account can publish a post to said feed by including a special hashtag or emoji

How can anyone find evolution demeaning?
I find it an awe-inspiring & beautiful process that not only links us to our brothers & sisters, but to all life on earth. It let's us ponder that "The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself." -Carl Sagan

Kairos & Aporia.

Kairos is to take the opportune action at the opportune time.

When people experience aporia, that is the realization of conflicting thoughs or a contradiction. The opportune action is to do nothing unless asked, because the realizations we come to & solve ourself are most profound

Someone told me that this app may seem very empty because of this default setting that requires replies to have 2 likes or more before they show up.

Indeed! I changed it so that all replies show up, and suddenly the place seems much more lively. I highly recommend changing it in your settings.

I not a poet, most people are not poets.
Yet, our words have the power to divide & unite people.
For this reason I think listening is more important than speaking.
Asking is more important than claiming.
& lastly thinking is more important than speaking.

I have to wonder, what is the best way to communicate science in a simple way, without butching the important details?

Okay, trying to figure out how do these tags work?

Okay, got it.
Hey @support.bsky.team!
It seems there is no order to the suggested tags when using @.

Would it not be beneficial if it suggested those in thread the > mutual followers > those you follow > those who follow you > everyone else...

Well, I might as well start asking now.

Who on this platform should I keep an eye out for & follow? I don't recognize so many yet it seems.
