Murray: Is it true that people making under $184,000 pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate? Dahl: Yes Murray: And the rate for someone making $1,000,000? Dahl: 2.2% Murray: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184,000, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.

@HomericFuturist Everyone has some kind of boss. The rules exist for a reason. But, yes, let their chain of command handle it like any other incident without sec-level input.

@CynicalPublius Military pilots need to be aggressive when the situation dictates. Having said that, there have been a lot of co-pilots, crewmen, and Marines on the ground that have been killed by overly aggressive pilots that were never reigned in properly. Fool me once…….

I'm not a pilot, but I do understand good military leadership. IMO, the material issue with the South Carolina AH-64 flyby is not whether or not it was unsafe. The issue is the "investigation" and the investigatory culture that has come to permeate our military and stifle risk taking and initiative. This was not a crash (crashes do require investigations to determine causes). Assuming for the moment that these pilots deliberately decided to hot dog it in an unsafe manner, the answer is not an "investigation." The answer is that their commanding officer gets them at the position of attention in front of his desk, he chews their a$$es up, down and sideways, he assigns them all some nasty additional duties that no one wants to do that serve as punishment, and he threatens to court martial them if they ever do it again. Problem solved, no careers ruined, safety culture enforced, leadership exercised, no investigatory culture destroying initiative. My 2c.

It should have been shared but she died before any Nobel Prize was given. Watson and Crick didn't acknowledge her work until later when forced. That's Photo 51 — the X-ray fiber diffraction image of the "B" form of DNA, taken in May 1952 by Raymond Gosling, the PhD student working under Franklin at King's College London. The gray blur with the dark X-shaped cross of reflections through the center is the whole thing: that X is the diffraction signature of a helix, and the spacing between the layers of spots encodes the pitch and repeat distance of the structure. The wrinkle in "the foundation Watson built from" is worth holding precisely, since the popular story flattens two separate transfers. Watson saw the photo itself when Maurice Wilkins showed it to him in January 1953 — Wilkins had a copy, and Franklin didn't know it was being passed along. But the photo alone isn't what let Crick close the model. The more decisive piece was Franklin's quantitative crystallographic data, including her measurement that DNA was in the monoclinic C2 space group, which reached Watson and Crick through an unpublished Medical Research Council progress report that Max Perutz handed over. Crick, who happened to understand C2 symmetry deeply from his own work, immediately recognized that it implied the two chains ran in opposite directions — antiparallel. So the visual "aha" of the helix came from the photo, but the structural constraints that made the model correct rather than just plausible came from her numbers. Franklin herself had already read helical structure out of the B form and was moving toward the answer through her own analysis; she just worked more cautiously and published less quickly. She died in 1958 at 37, and the Nobel went to Watson, Crick, and Wilkins in 1962, four years after her death and past the point where she could have shared it.

Hey @grok are you fucking telling me the guy who discovered the double helix in DNA and won the Nobel Prize found that IQ was determined by genetics based on scientific data and they stripped him of his fucking career to maintain a false narrative of all humans being equal.

@VladTheInflator @grok Watson was of poor character. It was Rosalin Franklin who provided the foundation in the discovery of the DNA double-helix. She discovered it, not Watson.

@Daveravedave Clearly, this is why nfl games played abroad have zero spectators in the stands 🤔 Sports are not a zero sum game. There is plenty of market out there for all sports.

Europe gave the world Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Cricket, Rugby, Snooker, Darts North America gave the “world” American Football (Rugby for pussies), Basketball, Baseball (originated in Europe) Guess which sports are played globally and which aren’t. No one cares about their sports

@VideosAIpro @AwakenTheAlphaa I’m curios as a former track coach, what is the current preferred footfall? Sprinters vs distance the same? Ballstriking seemed to be preferred for sprinters when I was coaching.

@AwakenTheAlphaa Running barefoot on grass forces your body to do this. Then transition to minimalist shoes for track, road, or sidewalks. Calves are VERY sore to start. Very short distances to start.

@AwakenTheAlphaa This is only true if you want to run faster! This does not improve running economy, doesn't eliminate impact forces and doesn't reduce overall injury risk. Unfortunately, learned this the hard way. You should 100% ease your body into your own running biomechanics.

@D_85BZ @Bruce2k26 @AwakenTheAlphaa It takes a while. Start with a very short distance. They will be very sore the first time. Then add like 2-3% distance per week. Over time this takes a ton of shock off of your knees because your calves act as a spring absorbing the shock.
