I personally cannot move to Dubai because I grew up playing F-19 Stealth Fighter and I remember the Iran map

If you were US Secretary of Defense and were completely sober, after this weekend you’d sure need a drink

Very disappointed with the whole Trump parade thing, was conditioned by UK Trooping the Colour to expect Melania in dress uniform leading cavalry

If it’s in caps lock I’m not reading it

That’s not just any urban fox pack, that’s a Mozilla swat team

If you're ever in Athens, I highly recommend the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology! maps.app.goo.gl/sngwM98ueKkr... Early humanoid robots to pour water+wine, demonstrations of heat+steam+water weight to "magically" open 500 kg temple doors, armor, ... (cont)

Finding Out is now deemed un-American, as Trump concentrates efforts entirely on Fucking About

Good to see the armed forces turning a profit every now and then

Couple of committees of very, very strait-laced Norwegians in grey suits looking hard at this issue as we speak. If they do a “margin call” sell-it-all, and they absolutely could, you will feel the noise

Jacob is right, this is very good. The more science I learn, especially broadening away from my theoretical physics background, the more I find a taste for unruled magic

do you know about the all-time greatest brand instagram handle

Move your put strikes lower, ladies and gentlemen, the FT unhedged newspaper column has single-handedly moved the Overton window for US policy

RIP Professor Jayant Narlikar, a great Indian astrophysicist. His book on gauge theories and quantum cosmology, written with his prolific student Padmanabhan, was challenging and seminal for me as a young man. Always physics, never too much mathematics.

They think the people who write in Google Docs are the same as people who code, in which I frequently now get 10 lines of irrelevant nonsense suggested to me Absolute idiots 🤦‍♂️
