No. The scientists do not figure out that things are being meddled with until much later. The scientist suicides, especially the daughter of the woman who invites the aliens, committed suicide because everything they knew about physics had been “proven incorrect”. It was all a lie, but they didn’t know that.
CERN confirms ultra-rare particle transformation.
Three Body Problem:
Scientists commit suicide.
IRL:
Scientists get super stoked about “new physics”.
I think that’s enough reading the news for me for today.
I can see a dragon also fitting the requirement for people that suffer from giraffophobia.
Expect that “something” added to be a thing that makes the bill a non-starter. Something like ‘no assistance to Ukraine’ or ‘passport required to vote’ or ‘federal abortion pill ban’, etc.
Someone will add something to the bill that will give any who need it an excuse to vote against.
I genuinely want to catch an IMAX showing before it is too late. It’s like being able to watch the Hindenburg disaster in person.
“The hills around here are pretty squatchy.”
UBER EATS terms and conditions.
I see Cybertrucks all the time. Everything about it is so ridiculous that I am genuinely embarrassed for the driver. I think it is the scale. If it was the size of a Hyundai Santa Cruz, the aesthetic might work…maybe. It just looks silly, gawdy, unfinished, and cheap.
I came here for a “shit for brains” comment and was disappointed.
Gen-X in tech here. When I was about to enter the workforce we were told that having multiple jobs in our resume or showing that we stayed at a job less than five years was really bad and would make us difficult to hire because it showed that we couldn’t be depended on.
Fuck that!
I switched jobs all the time as I chased higher salaries and bigger benefits. If they wanted my skills they needed to pay me AND they needed to guarantee me at least two off-site training programs per year. All that training and experience in different technologies and environments made me more and more valuable until my only option was to go into consulting so that multiple clients could benefit at once and none need to commit to paying me beyond the scope of their project.
Nonplussed…that takes me back.
I was educated in a private school for British ex-pats run by a very old and very posh couple. This was the early eighties and they were already in their seventies, so definitely from a different era. Because of this and because of the size of our school (my entire year consisted of nine kids) we ended up quite odd. Up until highschool we had a mild but “poshy” London accent and words like vexing, nonplussed, providential, etc., peppered our vocabulary. Then we moved to Louisiana followed by Texas and that shit went right out.
Also, the word is aluminium. It is NOT aluminum!
Tipping hat to the article author…
You can actually tip The Guardian. Unlike other larger publications, The Guardian accepts tips. Whenever I read a good article (often long form) from them, I tend to give them a dollar. More often than not , I end up paying more than if I had paid for a year, but it feels like I am properly rewarding good performance.
“Home is equipped with a 50 Gallon gas water heater upgraded with RGB lines for an extra 10 FPS.”
Yeah man. It is coming up on twenty years. VRBO is even older.
Actually, I think your take would have made more sense. It never sat well with me that scientists would resort to suicide because they found something they could not explain…yet.
