I was recently gifted of a magnificent #TI57 programmable #calculator. The LED display is amazing and I love it 😍 However, I would like to have a little chat with the engineer who thought it was a good idea to use a red wire for the negative and a black wire for the positive connections of the 9V battery. 😤😠 I’m glad I first checked online. I could have destroyed it on the first attempt. In the battery pack the NiCd elements are leaky and much probably the boost converted is gone, too.

I felt compelled to print a warning for avoiding frying the #TI57 in the future. If a center negative DC barrel connector is evil, this is just devilish 😬

Cutting NWS will cost lives. The Jackson, KY office didn't have overnight forecasters for the storms that roll through last night. Overall, this meant the NWS was slower to respond to the storms in the area, so people got alerts/warnings later, which will lead to more injuries/deaths.

New report: “BART’s focus on fare evasion recovers minimal revenue, may be addressing an overstated problem, and is not effective at curbing incidents that make riders feel uneasy in the system”

Nonetheless, the securitization of the stations will of course continue apace, because for American bureaucrats, every problem (or non-problem) is a nail which needs hitting by a hammer

The video depicts a group of four characters, identified as "Lv.1 Cadets," sprinting across a desert landscape characterized by large, rock formations and a barren, sandy terrain. The cadets are wearing futuristic helmets and are seen running with urgency, kicking up dust as they move. The text overlay at the bottom of the frames reads, "The Lv.1 Cadets sprinting straight towards the hell bomb I just armed," indicating a sense of impending danger. As the cadets continue their run, the background shows large rock formations and a clear sky, with dust clouds visible, suggesting an explosion or disturbance in the distance. The cadets' determined expressions and forward-leaning postures emphasize their haste and the urgency of their mission. The video captures the cadets' relentless pursuit towards a significant threat, maintaining a consistent sense of urgency and danger throughout.

The image features a meme with a humorous take on the concept of "consensus." At the top, the text reads "THE MYTH OF 'CONSENSUAL'" with a small flag icon next to it. Below this, on the left side, there is a single figure labeled "Throwing a 500 Kilogram on the Pelican," depicted as a character in black and yellow armor with a cape. On the right side, there is a group of four identical figures, also in black and yellow armor, with the text "WAIT WAIT B3 WE'RE NOT IN YET." At the bottom, the text reads "ISN'T THERE SOMEBODY YOU FORGOT TO ASK?" The background is plain white, and the overall style is reminiscent of internet memes.

Way before my time, but I think if I were around back then, I'd have been caned often: for example, my school allows high heels but I often come to school in heels higher than allowed with my uniform and yet I can still run fast, so, no teacher would catch me anyway! But at least in detention I turn it into a study session, so then I'm not disgruntled.

The video showcases a serene beach scene, focusing on a sandy shore with numerous footprints leading towards the water. The foreground prominently features the footprints, which are imprinted in the darker sand, contrasting with the lighter sand nearby. The beach is bordered by calm blue water on the left, with gentle waves lapping at the shore. In the background, a line of trees and a distant pier can be seen, adding depth to the scene. The sky is clear and blue, indicating a sunny day. The overall atmosphere is tranquil, with no visible people in the immediate vicinity, emphasizing the quietness of the beach. The camera remains stationary throughout, capturing the footprints and the beach's natural beauty without any movement or change in perspective.

Bella, questa ricerca!
Il nostro corpo emette luce in modo diretto e ritmico L'intensità della luce emessa è 1000 volte inferiore alla sensibilità del nostro occhio nudo. L'emissione di fotoni ultradeboli è nota come energia rilasciata sotto forma di luce attraverso i cambiamenti nel metabolismo energetico. Le variazioni diurne nell'emissione di fotoni potrebbero essere collegate ai cambiamenti nel metabolismo energetico, ma variano anche in relazione a stati meditativi o nella focalizzazione mentale.

This is scary and highlights something that's painfully obvious in DC: smart people either don't want to work in this administration or are being turned away. But effective government - especially when crisis strikes - depends on having smart people around. washingtonpost.com/business/20…

I think of people like Wally Adeyemo, Shalanda Young, Rohit Chopra, Jigar Shah... these are intimidatingly smart people. You may not always agree on policy but their intellect and ability to simultaneously grasp the big picture and the minutiae of public policy are unparalleled.
