@AmiriKing SARS-CoV-2 aerosols are typically >2.5 μm, which is by definition larger than all PM2.5 particles. Sorry 😬

The CDC just fucked up.
Smoke particles are 2500 nanometers.
Covid particles are 20-500 nanometers.
Oof.

@jesawyer @robbybustle That's mostly because people are bad at math. Bless is the best spell in the game, and it's not close.
In the game there is an early item that breaks said spell even more.
Going beyond BG3 into D&D, they get Divine Intervention at level 10.
BG3 has made wizards too powerful.

@Vanessa_ABee The whole "psychic pain" thing had to be addressed in utilitarianism... more than 150 years ago!

@mehdirhasan we have also never had a president before who incited an armed insurrection and tried to overturn an election *in this country*

Cruz says we have never indicted a former president before.
1) So?
2) maybe we should have!
3) we have also never had a president before who incited an armed insurrection and tried to overturn an election.

Ted Cruz reacts to the Georgia grand jury indictments: "I'm pissed...We've never once indicted a former president...This is disgraceful...It is an abuse of power by angry Democrats who've decided the rule of law doesn't matter anymore."

@nislatr Honestly, legislating this is a no-brainer. For a miniscule fuel consumption increase it massively reduces heating. We need degrowth too, but this is an almost-free win.

Bizarre that people continue to posit this false dichotomy. We can and must do both. Yes, embrace technological improvement. Also ban private jets, transition to rail networks where possible, and reduce less-necessary flights.

Amazing: Google partnered with American Airlines, used AI to tweak flight paths to reduce contrails. The results are in, and if scaled up this could immediately reduce aviation's global warming impact by almost 20% Technology just keeps beating degrowth! blog.google/technology/ai/…

Kroger is introducing self-checkout-only stores.
The first one is in Tennessee. Everyone hates self-checkout. More to come?
delaniac 🌹🌱@ChadNotChud
Kroger has seemingly increased the sensitivity of their theft-detection systems on their self-checkout systems. The result seems to be that their employees are so inundated with false positives that not a single one bothers to check your bags or the video footage. Incredible.

I'm having so much fun prepping my course materials, this is the best part of my job🥹

@bigblackjacobin It's even less than that, dude was just staying at a house with a lot of sand outside and thought about it enough I guess

@31337Magician Just have them interact with file systems for whatever. That and the lack of typing proficiency is a whole problem.

I'm wrapping my work week and wanted to take 5 and share something I noticed a few weeks ago and forgot to post. My son had friends over and they had almost no time interacting with computers, in 2023. Please let your kids play with computers? It's important now.

@KatzOnEarth The replies you're getting that misunderstand the teapot analogy 🙈...

@devonbancroft1 @allison_horst I mean, the p is shown as high in the one and low in the other, but it only refers to the statistic, not the population.
English
@tdawry @allison_horst The sample distributions swapped? As long as the distributions overlap enough you can have a higher test mean than control and still get a large p value

The thing I don't get about room temperature superconductors is room temperature for who?

There's an uptick in #COVID19 cases in Los Angeles County. Get tested if you have symptoms such as fatigue, muscle aches and fever. Staying home if your are sick and washing your hands frequently will help keep you and others safe.
