This story reminds me of that episode on the TV show, The Orville. Season 1 Episode 9. Both the Navarians and Bruidians lay claim as the planet's original settlers. An ancient artifact containing residual DNA is discovered. They agree to a neutral third party to analyze the DNA to determine the planet's original settlers. Spoiler alert: Toward the end of the episode, the analyzed DNA determines both groups shared a common ancestor

Julius Sumner Miller - Physics demonstrations

I had been exposed to many of these physics concepts in school. Some of the topics never really clicked for me. Revisiting these physics topics with demonstrations brought clarity to several foundational concepts. Lots of moments of realization getting to view demonstrations of concepts like Force, Mass, Acceleration, and more. Newton and Bernoulli. While included, the series is not too heavy on the math. Enchanting series to watch through.

These water circuit analogs to electric circuits remind me of Eric Laithwaite's water analogs. Several videos showing the analogs in action on youtube in The Circle of Magnetism. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tJfqMYHaQw

Savage of Sebastian to call out Henry like that on twitter. Are you on drugs or something? https://twitter.com/sebmck/status/1392019586833387522

Publicly accusing Henry of not actually working on the project seems short sighted. Only looking at a one year slice of contribution rather than the lifetime of the project masks the full picture of Henry's contributions. Also in Henry's defense, the past year has been a terribly difficult one for most all of us to get through this pandemic.

Not a good look for you Sebastian. Feels like you are looking for a place to point blame and unfortunately decided to direct that blame in Henry's direction. Henry Zhu is a great developer and contributor. Really deserves better than this.

Would be nice if traffic lights in the US had a countdown time. Many other countries have countdowns on their traffic lights. The US has some catching up to do.

Great News! I have never intentionally hit backspace to go back, and yet I've hit backspace on accident and been taken many times. Quite annoying when it happens.

Display ads are not the problem. The problem is with ads used to track, follow, and target users while surfing the web. Ads are becoming web stalkers that follow us around the internet. How will showing 1 ad per page prevent tracking, following, and targeting?

Yes, it does.
