Base-10 is a completely useless designation unless you know the base of the number in it which you can’t because you just get base-10 again.

Remember, Amsterdam wasn’t always like it is today. In the 50s-60s they surrendered to cars too. But starting in the ‘70s, they chose to change. And they kept choosing to change for decades. They’re STILL choosing to change, as @schlijper’s great pics show.

Your city can choose to change too.

Someone wrote in asking for technical support, asking for a very specific installer for a specific piece of software, apparently no longer available for download from our site.

Here's the weird part: Neither this software nor an installer for it have ever existed. (Was this software someone else wrote, that we're just hearing about for the first time?)

After several back and forth messages asking for detail and where they heard about this software, it turns out that it all came from ChatGPT.

Did someone say "AIOps"?

The Mormon Church is being fined 5 million because it hid a 32 billion dollar investment fund. This was not accidental. The SEC proved that both the investment firm and church went to great lengths to knowingly hide these assets. For the folks playing along at home, that’s a fine of 0.016% on the investment. Imagine lying on your taxes and you hid an extra $100K offshore and the IRS said “No sweat, pay us $15.63.” If there are no other repercussions, that’s not a fine, that’s encouragement.

These little guys are called the "Leaf Sheep". They have the face of a cow or sheep, but a back that looks like a house plant. These animals can photosynthesize, are only about 5 mm long, and can be found in shallow marine waters in #Japan, #Indonesia, and the #Philippines. They are like farm animals, act like a plant, and live in the sea! Credit Image: via the Beauty of Planet Earth

“we analyzed simultaneous recordings of more than 10,000 pyramidal neurons during 1–2 hr in visual cortex of awake mice (seven mice, nine recordings, recording duration 1.52 ± 0.51 hr), performed and first reported by Stringer et al., 2019.”

Now that’s a data set that keeps on giving! Outstanding.

Before his 1962 orbital flight, John Glenn was wary of trusting his life to a machine's trajectory calculations and asked that Katherine Johnson check them. #BHM

"Productivity jumped as offices closed, and stayed high through 2021. When companies started mandating a return to the office, productivity dropped sharply."

The return to the office could be the real reason for the slump in productivity. Here’s the data to prove it | Fortune

💥 Roof top solar grows by a whopping 114% in the UK in 2022.

Highest number of installations reported by MCS since 2015 when subsidies were cut by 65%.

High energy prices and cost reductions in solar modules have driven up demand since.
