I watched a Companion (2025) and Obsession (2026) double feature last night. I am going to rank Bear as worse than Josh. Josh at least wasn’t trying to be fake. Bear’s reaction to the “please kill me” moment was unforgivable.

Wow, the level of “shoot first, ask questions later” of this scientist hoping to gain notoriety without considering the costs. My jaw was on the floor reading this
“Seven days after the girl’s medical team infused trillions of viruses carrying the recipe for the base editor into her spinal fluid, she died of a severe immune reaction linked to the therapy…” This, in @science.org, is an important and tragic story. (It’s also an incredibly well reported one.) 🧪
Good change. It’s unfortunate that this has to be a rule, but I’ve been like WTF for some of the Olympic coverage in the past
New guidelines issued for more respectful TV camera coverage of female athletes
New guidelines have been released advising broadcasters on how to use more respectful camera angles when covering live female athletics events.

With an AGI of 600+, my kids are too afraid to go outside to get the mail. And I had to explain that air conditioners do not bring in outside air
Poor air quality worsens heat wave conditions in Aurora
My hot take is this is a good thing. (1) I am not a medical doctor, but data is severely limited in this area. The military will give us aa good collection of data. Maybe this is something that varies. If you ask 10 urologists what “normal” testosterone levels are you’ll get 10 different answers
Hegseth said soldiers would have the option of receiving testosterone replacement therapy, if it’s recommended.
I have been really enjoying GPT 5.6 Sol; and because I cannot use fable for anything related to biology (my job). I decided to cancel my claude code max subscription and boost my openAI codex subscription to max
I love it when BrickNerd goes trigonometry and angles

Part 2/2: But today, I came across this interesting article with the conclusion: "Coders who use spaces for indentation make more money than ones who use tabs", stackoverflow.blog/2017/06/15/d... Wild, right?
Developers Who Use Spaces Make More Money Than Those Who Use Tabs - Stack Overflow
stackoverflow.blog
Part 1/2: Seemingly every year, I question whether I should switch to PEP 8's recommendation of using spaces in my Python code instead of tabs. I've been using tabs ever since I started coding in Python around 2006. This post pretty much sums up my opinion on tabs: stackoverflow.com/a/5048130
Why does Python pep-8 strongly recommend spaces over tabs for indentation?
I see on Stack Overflow and PEP 8 that the recommendation is to use spaces only for indentation in Python programs. I can understand the need for consistent indentation and I have felt that pain. ...
