Mazel tov!! I grew up on Ed’s books so this goes to the top of my list.

AI?? Eggh

It looks normal sized from here.

Kidding, congrats to the successful undergrad!

If you want a palate cleanser, check used book sites for Lady With a Spear, by Eugenie Clark. Just pure science-hell-yeah joy from someone who got the credit she deserved in her lifetime.

You can always tell when he’s talked with Elon again.
