So far the biggest achievement in quantum computing seems to either be making a super random number reasonably quickly, or figuring out what quantum computers might be good for some day. So breaking encryption seems like a big leap.

The therapsids (that became mammals) had the edge back in the Triassic and early Jurassic. The dinos will have their time again, Pesto is the first warning shot.

“Fine! I’ll set up debugging! Stupid piece of…” - Me at some point, a little too late, into most projects

Maybe one day MS will patch 1.0 to actually make it release ready. It put me off MS GUIs so hard that I avoided 3.1 until '94 (when I got my first CD drive and it came with a windows only game).

I think this beats the JoCo Cruise as the most appealing bougie cruise, in my head.

Soft rain with thin enough clouds that there’s still light, and chilly but not cold.

If you want me to get really specific (because I got to experience recently): Sometime between Oct 15th and December 1, in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, roughly 5pm, light rain, 50 degrees, listening to Gone by Pearl Jam.

Not quite 5 days.

I had a bulged lumbar disc but all the pain was in my knee so I thought I had done something to my patella. I couldn’t get in to see my doc so I was just trying to make my knee comfortable, which was impossible because it was an inflamed nerve. Then finally I was crawling back into bed for one more try to sleep and something about how I moved shifted the bulge and the pain went away. Maybe 30 seconds later I was hard asleep.

This was in the 90s and one of the local stations played reruns of Gilligan’s Island from 2:00 am until the news started at 5:30. I watched so many episodes… but I’m fine (⊙_⊙)

Thank you.

Anything Biden does with a click of his fingers Trump could undo as easily. But that is irrelevant since this would be in violation of the constitution. Even the mega-dangerous “the supreme court said the president is king” argument doesn’t hold up because this breaks one of the 2 guardrails (must be constitutional) in their ruling.

We’re having all our grass ripped out and are having it replaced with autoscrolling phones.

Biden almost certainly won’t do anything like this.

Biden can’t do this. States have most of the control over how their elections run. For anything like this to be pushed by the Fed it would take a constitutional amendment which requires congress to approve followed by 2/3rds of states to ratify. Stop blaming administrations for not being criminal, it just grants the criminal administrations cover.

This whole time he’s been staring at his date’s butt, and we were all wrong about him. Really makes you think…

If Dr Spaceman was real, you know he’d be in the running. That or he’d be the guy in the WH giving out pills like he’s the candy shop guy from Willy Wonka.

Postdocs, here’s an idea for your next grant topic. Do groups of gulls have food trends?

“Ugh, fast food french fries are so 2022. We’re all doing kettle chips now.” - Trendy Gull.

I don’t think I can answer since equating to a font would indicate of consistency or repeatability that doesn’t exist.

I’m in my 40’s and I still can’t decide if I prefer writing a 7 with the crossbar though it of not. Of if I should draw a 4 like a triangle on a stick or a poorly made box.

Also missing is MC.

Is the W on Paul’s chest because he realized he’s basically an unlikable version of Waluigi?

Not that I’m aware of, but it would be nice.
