Water makes explosions worse.
I had put a bunch of dry ice into a Falcon tube (50 mL screw top plastic centrifuge tube) and suddenly realised that I wasn’t actually in the mood for a loud bang, so I chucked it into a perspex water bath. The bang was muted but the water spout hot the ceiling and the water bath failed, drenching my supervisor’s notes.
- Comment on The half-assed implementations of battery charge limits... 2 weeks ago:
multiple times a month I’d say it just randomly charges to 100% regardless
That’s intentional on Pixel phones - from support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7106961
To keep its battery capacity readings accurate, your Pixel needs to fully charge at every 10th cycle. This applies even if you have the “Limit to 80%” option turned on. To finish the process, leave your phone plugged in for at least 30 minutes after the screen shows 100%.

That’s the far side of the moon, not the dark side. The dark side is the side that isn’t facing the sun, and that’s changing constantly.

- Comment on "Science isn't political!" 1 month ago:
Whether climate change is occurring, what damage it’s doing and what’s causing it are scientific questions. How to address it is a set of political questions: How do we get humanity to emit less greenhouse gases? How do we get countries on the same page? How do we make sure that the effects of these changes don’t increase global inequality?
The scientific questions have been answered very well, and are continuing to be answered in more detail all the time.
The response to the political questions has been an abject failure so far.

“You’re” means “you are”. “Your” means “belonging to you”.

Oh, wait, this is that thing about explaining a joke and dissecting a frog, right?

- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 4 months ago:
It’s nowhere close to that level. The GOP/ MAGA has been eroding international trust in America for a while now, but realistically, everybody else is on the outside looking in, and even if America removed all women’s rights, including the right to vote, or annexed Panama, all that would happen would be strongly worded protests and further political isolation of America from the rest of the world.
Nobody wants to fight a war against the USA, and barring something cataclysmic like an invasion of Mexico, nobody wants to sanction the largest market in the world.
TL;DR: America would have to become much poorer or much weaker before anybody does anything.
