Cretaceous seas were inhabited by several Mosasaurus species, not all of them giants.
This is one of the medium-sized Mosasaurus, M. missouriensis, an exceptional specimen found in Alberta. Lizardfish bones were in its gut contents. The prey had been bitten into swallowable chunks. 🧪

I much prefer being around people who try to improve things, even if they ultimately aren't successful, rather than folks who assume nothing will ever change.

I have emailed them that I don't appreciate them adding extra workload on people and then use it for AI training/validation, and have asked them to stop. I have unsubscribed and added them as spammer.
Hilarious:
Is there a participation fee?
"No, there is no cost to you".
My time is valuable.

I received this email too, and promptly ignored it. If it looks like spam, and smells like spam…..
If it’s legit, they have gone about it very badly.

Wow. This is cool!
There’s a statue in Parliament that’s been deliberately left damaged for over a century.
The reason why takes us back to one of the most important protests in British history.
Let me show you one of Parliament’s hidden stories.

I'm gonna need to see the actual CFD simulations, here. The Olympics are so unserious.
I’m an old(ish) man, and I’ve seen a decent amount of weird stuff.
But this? This is new.

“the least effort”?
When people use the word *quantum* in a sentence like, “we need to work out the quantum of effort to solve this problem”, do they simply mean *amount*?

“Hyaluronic acid…can be used to increase penis circumference by one or two centimetres.
This would increase the surface area of their suits during competition, which, according to FIS, the international ski and snowboard federation, could increase their flight in the air.”
