  Oh I remember that now. IIRC it was in rock creek which the locals do, even if it is not healthy. Not a good look for the secretary of health.

  I did not know pasturized breastmilk was a commodity product.

  I guess the center of gravity is lower on the scooter too for what it’s worth.

  They are also unstable without steering input, unlike bicycles, which makes them way more dangerous. I’d like to see the research.

  What about buried oil tanks?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is the enemy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  People keep saying they’re dangerous but I ride one all the time. I really wish they were as well studied as bikes, where I know the helmet doesn’t help that much when you’re hit in a collision.

  Reread the article: they eat aphids and scale bugs, but also outcompete native lady bugs and can get inside houses becoming a pest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Heroes do not always wear capes, sometimes it's elytra.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Do the adults eat aphids too or just their metal larvae

  Are they anti-covid advocacy, or anti covid-advocacy? I’m pretty sure it’s the former from context but I’m still kind of unsure.

  When I was in college, our choir director told us that the flu vaccine was mandatory – like he couldn’t actually know or enforce it, but we had a duty to the group to do whatever we could to protect each other in that high risk activity. Especially since some of the members were seniors. I thought that was pretty compelling and beautiful, and I got it that year after being hesitant and have every year since.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m surprised nobody has mentioned Parallax Error yet.

  Because when the time is say…9:22 and 5 seconds, the hand will clearly be on the 9:22 mark. But when it’s 9:22 and 45 seconds, it looks like it’s actually 9:23 when it isn’t yet.

  The best way to avoid this error is to look exactly straight on at the watch or clock, which isn’t always possible for wall clocks. If you look from an angle, it is easier to mistake the time for 9:23 or 9:21 when it is really 9:22.

  The other bit of information is the second hand, if you have one.

  My mental algorithm goes something like this, it i were to step through it slowly:

  1. General impression of the clock. The shape of the hour and minute hand together. I recognize the approximate time: a few minutes past 9:20.
  2. Minute hand fine position: somewhere between 9:22 and 9:23.
  3. Second hand position: at 45 seconds. I now know the time is 9:22:45.

  This gets faster with practice. Instead of having to work out the time, you’ll just know it, the more you do it.

  Looks…dumb?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A bigger clock absolutely makes it easier to read the time down to the minute.
