A journey of a 1000 steps reaches its happy destination. Congratulations @RobSims9115312 on the well deserved and happy occasion of PhD graduation.
Ah! The throwback to childhood spent reading and re-reading Sagan's Cosmos. Immediately reminded me of the Drosophila experiment mentioned in the chapter "One Voice in the Cosmic Fugue". Extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence, which still fits Occam's Razor.

All set up for an evening of 🌱science at Knightswood Secondary with our parthers @KnightswoodP and Ms @MissERHarrold with @rucha_karnik and @morenorse
@LancasterUni , @LancasterSU : With lots of students cycling to Uni, a gentle reminder that you share the A6 with people going 75🍌/s in 1 ton rust buckets using the liquified bones of our distant ancestors. Please follow the Highway Code. #StaySafe gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-…
10 years in Lancaster. Considering the mountain of things that went wrong, thankful for the literal handful of things that went right.
Congratulations to Dr. Sims, my very first PhD student, successfully defending his thesis. @amigafan2k3 @SCC_Lancaster's latest success! 🎉🎉🥳🥳🎉🎉

We have now finished with our trial of the #EmergencyAlert system

Asked DALL.E to generate a photorealistic render of a Pikachu... now I will never sleep again... #bowlofPetunias
Sun's shining, breeze's blowing, sky's blue, not a cloud in sight... it's hot but it's cool too... move over Millenium Bridge, we've got a new favourite #AtalBridge
One of these will haunt me in my dreams... why does AI think humans have 4 or 6 fingers? And an unnaturally large number of teeth in the front?

It is 2023. #Expectation: 10yo posts homework question, "Help me derive the Reimann manifold for a human being" #reality: Despair at the fact that large swathes of population cannot perform basic mathematical operations or agree upon standard notations like BODMAS.
OK, a poll. What's the correct answer to the @DailyMailUK / @carolvorders question:

?
(Will be interesting to see what the split of answers is.)
