Pretty much every day I get an update or two about how the James Webb telescope has kicked the legs out from under another one of cosmology’s sacred cows.
Great to know how wrong we’ve been, but now I’m waiting for updates saying we’ve figured out why.
So who held a gun to your head and forced you to open this thread?
Here’s an interesting related factoid - your eyes are constantly making tiny micromovements called saccades. During these movements, you don’t receive any visual information. Your actual view of the world comes in stuttering fits and starts. You don’t notice this because your brain literally invents what you think you’re seeing during saccades. It’s good enough not to get you weeded out of the gene pool.

That’s going to depend a lot on context. Did he travel the world for five years, working a different temporary job at each stop? Or did he repeatedly get fired for pissing in the boss’ in-tray?
I’ve read a comment by someone who put a staircase in their memory palace with a step for each entry on the periodic table of elements. Anecdotal, I know.
This’ll probably make me go blind, but I’m on board. How?
I’m guessing this wine’s vintage is some time last week?
I’ve been experimenting a lot with cooking lately, so tonight I feel like keeping it simple. I have a store-bought pizza base, probably gonna make a margarita. Maybe put some shrimp on for her and some anchovies for me.
In highschool I had a friend who thought he was effective at using violence because he was good at videogames. It was hilarious watching him learn he was wrong.

It starts out feeling like you’re driving a two-tonne weapon in a world full of drunk people driving two-tonne weapons. You’re nervous and hypervigilant.
After a while your driving instincts develop and becomes less of a problem. And on days when the sun is shining and your favourite song is playing, it begins to seem like driving isn’t so bad after all.
😆 The grand master’s dialogue is perfect!
You’re not wrong, but your response doesn’t contribute much to answering the question.
And someone to write to. That might actually be the most important component.
Once I went on leave and the fella who filled in for me got a few complaints that he was slow. He said it was because I hadn’t labelled my store room properly. I added a few dymo labels around the place. The next time I went on leave he got a few more complaints and gave the same explanation, so I added a few more. After the third time I left the room looking like this picture and he shut up.
Did you enjoy the joke?
I bought a power supply for a second hand monitor and found that the 90-degree angle on the plug meant it couldn’t actually go into the socket. I took it back to the shop and the owner offered to solder a straight plug onto the adaptor for me - but couldn’t find one to use, so he gave me my money back.
