Had a blast speaking to curler and geologist Derek Leung about the geology of curling rocks. 🥌 🧪
Why curling rocks come from just two spots on Earth
The rocks used in the Olympic sport of curling come from one island in Scotland and one quarry in Wales. What makes them so special?

Incredible, and revealing, shot of a tragic result for Lindsey Vonn. Jacquelyn Martin of the Associated Press captured the picture that shows how Vonn's pole made contact with the right gate at an early jump, which led to the violent crash.

We need more people to admit voting for him was a mistake.

Let’s welcome these people back. We will need all the help we can get to get rid of trump and his enablers.
Three-time Trump voter: I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I want to apologize for supporting this rotten man.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

Statewide snowpack remains the worst on record, and it's not even close. It's barely half of where it should be.

Again...zero pleasure delivering this news. There are outs, but we're gonna need a railroad track of storms in late February-April to get us out of this.

A brief, recent history of the Washington Post:

1- Trump wins in 2024.
2- Bezos and minions make series of Trump-friendly changes to paper.
3-Readership tanks.
4- Bezos and minions fire tons of employees while telling them the audience just doesn't like what they're doing.

This was an absolutely fascinating piece to research.

Do not trust the answers AI chatbots glibly offer you -- they're not necessarily lies, but they *can* and *are* being manipulated.

If you’re picking colors with a tool that has precise control over hue, chroma, and lightness it’s possible to abruptly shift hue while maintaining even steps in lightness. This creates an unmistakeable transition that’s still monotonic!

Highly recommend reading this thread. Solidarity and love to the people of Minneapolis.
I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Seizure ... by whom? If we're asserting that the money is safer in Qatar than the US, that suggests that it is being protected because Qatar has something the US lacks — presumably a lack of accountability to American courts and Congress. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...
