Two scientists walk through a cluttered old-fashioned science laboratory. The female scientist says “Analogue instruments! Paper records! Chalk boards! I thought you'd agreed to modernise the laboratory?” The male scientist replies “That's what i'm so excited about: we have moved to cloud-based storage for our data!” They step out onto a balcony. She says: “Please tell me you haven't built a library zeppelin” This is exactly what he has done. It floats across the sky and he adds “It's got a fax machine!”

I already own this book. And the movie. Which is amazing.

They came up with a Family Friendly version, and offered it to public libraries for FREE. We have a set that we use on Game Days.

Two scientists look at a monitor attached to a large apparatus consisting of pipes, tanks, vessels and hoses. The first scientist says "I don't get it. The reaction is running perfectly, but we can't account for 7% of the heat." The other says "Have you Asked the Professor?" The first replies "We're not supposed To disturb him when He's in his office." On the other side of the apparatus, one of the pipes goes through a wall into another room where it warms the water for a hot tub in which the professor relaxes.

When I was little, I wondered if the tongue was tasting me, as I was tasting it.

It doesn't show up in IMDB except in a news bit. Too much to hope for...

Oh good heavens! Don't tease me! A new Mummy movie with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz????

Except in that Ray Milland Post Apocalyptic movie. What is it, Panic in the Year Zero..?

And it isn't true anymore. When I was a kid we had organ meat all the time. Because it was cheap, and we were poor. Getting that stuff now is way more expensive than it was. It's apparently more "gourmet".

"How about a nice game of chess."

"Let's play global thermo-nuclear war."

So beautiful! We have one who comes to our feeder.

No, it isn't parents who should decide what kids can read.

No, it isn't politicians either.

And no, it isn't librarians.

Readers are who should decide what they read. Age doesn't come into the right to read.

Not sure how many different ways I can say this.

They've already been speaking about banning it for the past decade. They've been openly saying it's the next step.

Age verification? I was traumatized by Old Yeller in the theater.

r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.

lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

The judge opened w/ a direct quote from Orwell, which was WILD

Fight ain’t over but it’s a DAMN good sign

I love her JD Robb books. Two a year regular as clockwork. Light, of course.

I love this. The BEST question!

Torn by choosing between Mother to Son by Langston Hughes, and The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.

Gonna continue this train and talk about another black creator that means a lot to me.

Dwayne McDuffie.

One of the founders of Milestone comics which was the first comic book universe that featured black and POC characters and of course Static Shock.

Everything counts as reading. Audio, graphic novels, print, ebooks. And reading for fun is just as important as reading for work or school.

As are you!

This. Was no one listening in High School Social Studies?

I just wish. I really do.

Post from Marcus Luther on Bluesky: “One of my many takeaways from this school year: a very-real recognition that it is important to ask students to write things that they care about writing and, as a result, I care about reading. Infusing authenticity into writing tasks has never been more essential. That has to be the work.”
