Is Trump no longer the President? The 14th Amendment says that you can't serve in that role after having "given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. [the Constitution]" constitution.congress.gov/constitution... He pardoned most Jan6 folk and commuted sentences for "seditious conspiracy".

Back in the Day, all-powerful corporate giant #IBM were known as "Big Blue". If you want a good anti-corporate logo, there just happens to be a #butterfly called the "Small Blue". Guess what the #bluesky #bsky logo appears to be a picture of? (Image from Wikimedia Commons)

It's a foundation principle of Einstein's general theory (textbook #GR ) that it must reduce geometrically to the inertial physics of #SpecialRelativity ( #SR ). Here's why this doesn't work ... at least, not when real matter is concerned. w.wiki/C2ck

Just to be very clear about things that work.

Sometimes science tees up the swears, though.

• General relativity & the standard model of particle physics make vastly different predictions about the energy of empty space. • The predictions between the two theories disagree by a factor of 100 googol quintillion (followed by 120 zeros). bigthink.com/hard-science...
