I love the immediate “a-and”. But I read it as a confident “aaand…” which I think is way funnier.

That’s so odd. This is YouTube, right?
I wonder what makes this happen. Which browser is this? Independent of browser?

Huh.
I installed “aves” from Droid-ify. That’s the one that I described.
When searching for aves through F-droid Basic, I got only the Aves Libre as a result. Installing that and opening it doesn’t result in any Android version warning. 👍
Thanks!

I tried to install aves but as I opened it, it told me “this app doesn’t support the latest Android version” or something, so I just uninstalled. 🫤

Nothing causes the electron to emit a photon exactly then at exactly that energy, it’s just something that happens.
I have to say this doesn’t sound very scientific to me.
Science would settle at “it’s just something that happens”? Certainly not the scientist in me, lol. Everything that happens is driven by something, in my mind. Some process. Even if it “appears” probabilistic or whatever. Seems like a probabilistic model is applicable to the behavior, perhaps, but we can’t measure or see such small things so we can’t really make any more detailed models than that. Isn’t that right?
So just because we don’t yet have a model for it or understand it fully, but we can describe it with some model, doesn’t mean we are finished or should stop there, IMO.
It’s like saying the dinosaurs went extinct after the youngest bones we’ve found. Or that they are exactly as old as the oldest bones we’ve found. But, we haven’t found all the dinosaur bones, or at least we can’t know that we have or haven’t. And we definitely haven’t found the bones of those dinosaurs that didn’t leave behind bones.
You feel what I’m getting at, kind of?

I was referring to the difference between a theory and a hypothesis.
Theorem would also be interesting to add to the mix.

Can’t help but think that “me drinking all the beer in my fridge as fast as possible” plays some major part in all of this… 🤨

Could you explain the difference to me? 🙏

Just a joke. It’s just a way to set up the joke. It doesn’t make sense, practically, but it isn’t supposed to be part of the funny bit. Or it is… It could be, in an ironic way.
🤷♂️ Take it with a pinch of salt.

480 days, paid. You can’t distribute between the parents here however you like though. Only 45 days are transferable between partners, to encourage equal time spent with the child.
Also some amount of days out of the 480 are of one level of compensation, and the rest are of another level. I don’t recall the specifics of that off the top of my head, though.

but people [in Russia] still have 28 calendar day paid vacation.
Wow, that’s something I didn’t know before, or expected. TIL. 👍

Oh shit. Somebody quick come pour that vat of frying oil over me so I can live my best life.
- Comment on Paid Leave Olympics 1 month ago:
Yep, I believe so. And you can also even transfer parental leave to a friend, if they help with the child. We did this for a friend of ours who is a single mom and needed help with her child.
- Comment on Paid Leave Olympics 1 month ago:
We usually use a day or two here and there to get long weekends where there are one-off holidays. It helps spend the days, and gives you some needed rest during the working period of the year. 👍

Sweden:
- 25-35 days vacation, most commonly.
- Maternity + paternity leave: 480 days combined, per child.
- Sick leave: almost ♾️ as far as I know, too…?

Certainly the “uncontrollable” part seems to match, at least.
