  • Fruit pie. Mostly apple. It's as American as... I dunno, I'm bad at analogy.

  • What species do you think is pictured? Looks like young salmon to me.

  • A small script to append some characters to a string based on whether the letters in the file name were capitalized. Super simple, but I had a data migration project to a system that doesn't recognize case and people before me coded information into case. It is essentially tutorial level but real life application. Maybe you have something similar? Practical and working before anything complex.

  • The average human has more than one brain

  • But here on Earth there'd be no life without the light it gives?

  • Also is the tree the negative space or is the sky? Your pic swings back and forth for me

  • Love it. I could spend hours watching the sky through this tree

  • Cicada wasps are a cicada predator. In a totally normal wasp behavior they paralyze a cicada and leave it for their larva to eat.

  • There are 2 Shatner episodes. One where he is an actor being blackmailed and one where he is a rightwing radio host.

  • This is interesting because CPR/first aid classes specifically teach (taught) that back blows are harmful and cause obstructions to get lodged lower in the airway except for very young people who you can turn upsidedownish. Time to rethink. Love it!

  • Tell me you don't communicate science often without saying it. Know the audience is rule 1.

    But ok, 'tell' is useful anthropormophism to get an idea across. Sensing though? In what way is reacting to a stimuli not sensing? It is the word scientific papers use. What would you say instead?

  • A little, the stretching house plant demonstrates how plants can sense the direction light is coming from. They can also sense qualities of light. They can tell if light is filtered through other leaves, for instance. I would speculate that refected light also has a unique color (wavelength) distribution that a plant could sense and respond to

  • TIL what a Stirling engine is. Thanks!

  • I'll save the nonsense response you would've gotten from the person who says "something like 7%" without a source.

    The credible studies say that simply cutting meat can cause some deficiencies like iron and b12 that you have to be mindful of. If not, there are negative reproductions on things like cognitive ability.

    People who can't fathom vegetarianism read that and think "vegetarians brains shrink" instead of "vegetarians know this and adjust their diet to maximize the missing stuff (or take supplements)"

  • Fault divorce makes you prove that harm is being done thus a divorce is needed. This is removing no sex as a fault. I think there are usually financial ramifications from being the at fault spouse. Thus there would be financial repercussions for refusing to have sex with someone. Obviously a bad thing.

    There is a thing called no-fault divorce that requires no proof of harm. I don't know if France has this, but it is how you get around needing any reason besides that one spouse wants to.

  • The "high bridge" is just the nick name that absolutely everyone uses. It has a real name, but nobody cares.

  • That's not a demon. That's an angel.

  • It isn't common, and explode is an exaggeration for what I have seen - just cracked bark (though the crack was probably abrupt and loud). Montana gets some every now and again, so I am guessing at least some parts of Alberta do too. Nobody has made a big deal about it in the past outside of folks interested in trees. This is some weird media hype.
