How come their sources on the inside are always very good at telling them when and where the high profile targets are but really bad at mentioning civilians??

Still frozen.

Came to say that I had a very nice swim in Puerto Morelos this morning. Can't believe I'm coming back to a frozen lake in a few hours.

@runliftrunlift hi, have you ever experienced IT band syndrome, and if so, what worked for your recovery?

@rookisaacman @curiosityonx Does this change the official policy that AI tools cannot be used to process NASA's data?

@curiosityonx Matteo please apply to work at NASA and I will personally throw in a fighter jet ride as a signing bonus

🚨 A student in the US just discovered MILLIONS of new space objects. The astronomy world was recently shaken by a discovery from an unexpected source: a teenager still in high school. Matteo Paz, a student from Pasadena, utilized archival data from NASA’s retired NEOWISE mission to bring 1.5 million invisible cosmic objects into the light. During a stint at Caltech’s Planet Finder Academy, and mentored by astrophysicist Davy Kirkpatrick, Paz took a novel approach to data analysis. He built a unique machine learning model capable of sifting through a staggering 200 billion infrared records. In a span of only six weeks, his AI detected subtle patterns that human analysts had missed, identifying everything from distant quasars to exploding supernovas. Paz’s findings were so robust that they earned him a spot in the prestigious The Astronomical Journal and a position as a research assistant at Caltech. His work does more than just populate star maps; it provides specific coordinates for the James Webb Space Telescope to investigate further. This breakthrough highlights a growing trend where fresh perspectives and AI tools allow young researchers to make historic scientific impacts from the classroom.

@ValidScience @MCCCANM They are entirely different technology as the ones in the G650 are manufactured by rolls royce.

@MCCCANM Are the engines on the latest business jets the same way? e.g. G650

Great engines. Unlike the 737 NG, the 737 MAX can taxi around on a single engine at almost any weight (as long as it’s not uphill). The downside is the start time. The LEAP engines have to be “motored” at around 23% N1 for an eternity compared to the old engines. The process is automatic, but it can take almost a minute of motoring before fuel can be added during the start process. It’s occasionally an issue if you single-engine taxi & don’t guess correctly how much time you’ll have until getting cleared for takeoff…you may have to ask for a little extra time… …because in addition to the start time, both the NG & LEAP engines require a warm up period of 3 minutes after start (5 minutes on the first start of the day) before you can apply takeoff thrust. The LEAP engines require a cool-down period, however, which isn’t the case with the NG. It’s 3 minutes after reducing to idle on landing before you can shut them down. This can be a problem if you are close to the gate after clearing the runway. In the video, once they take the runway you hear the engine noise increase as the throttle is moved up, then a pause before the noise gets louder. The standard procedure during takeoff is to push the throttles up to about 40% N1, let them stabilize & check the instruments before advancing to takeoff thrust (you engage the autothrottle by pushing the TOGA button at around 70% & let the autothrottle set the final takeoff thrust setting calculated earlier; the pilot not flying may do fine adjustments if it doesn’t quite get there). This is all usually done on the roll…you’re not holding the brakes or anything.

@thekevingrimm Hi! Is there a substantial advantage of running in zone 2 instead of zone 1 (for "easy miles" and building a bigger engine)? I find the zones a bit confusing. In my case, even zone 2 can feel taxiing on the legs over many miles, but zone 1 feels ideal for "easy" days

The simplest way for young parents to get faster might be…. run with your kids Stroller jog w/ the munchkin @ ~120bpm Forces you to go slow, which builds your engine while giving Mom some PTO As long as they don’t ask you to pick up the pace…

@AlertaF1 Cuáles son las gradas de la curva 1?

🚨 OFICIAL 🚨 La preventa de boletos para el GP de México de 2026 será el Lunes 10 y Martes 11 de Noviembre para tarjetahabientes de Banorte y Banamex a partir de las 11:00am El miércoles 12 será la venta General. También habrá una nueva modalidad, llamada Derecho de Primera Opción, con la que podrás participar en las ventas StayF1rst para la venta de Boletos de 2027 y 2028

@BlueSpotScience Does this mean that what the Internet running community calls Zone 2 (easy run pace) is actually Zone 1 in the sports science terminology?

Exercise Intensity Terminology is a bit of a mess 😵‍💫 Our attempt to try & summarise some of the different approaches, and make some recommendations going forward, has finally been published in both MSSE: bit.ly/4nT7Pq5 & JSaMS: bit.ly/46U7ptq.

@stevenkwanshat This interview is a few months old just fyi

If Jose doesn’t retire a Guardian I will finally shift the blame from the owners to the front office

By the way, I really liked Bad Bunny's latest album and I'm very curious to know who else is going to perform with him during the half time show. However, I can totally see why many aren't exactly looking forward to his performance, and might want to ruin it for everyone.

I certainly speak less Spanish in public and keep a very ambiguous appearance to try to avoid potential conflict with maga. That doesn't really bother me, but the lack of bilingual education in the US feels like such a missed opportunity.

Spanish has become such a divisive issue in this country, even when 1/2 of the territory used to be part of the Spanish empire and Mexico, and many of our favorite baseball players use English translators to speak to the press.

@1CLEbaseballfan Se está poniendo feo esto 🙁

I really like the running recommendations I often get on this app, + the sports talk and been able to get to catch up with what's going on in my country. But it comes at the cost of an increasingly annoying background noise that I wish didn't exist.

Después de 10 maravillosos días en Perú, llegó la hora de partir. Esperemos que no sea mucho el tiempo antes de volver a estas tierras de civilizaciones milenarias!

No cabe duda que Uruguay es la suiza latinoamericana si esas son sus noticias.

@1CLEbaseballfan Jajajaja
