Not here, not here the darkness, in this twittering world. -- T.S. Eliot, Burnt Norton, Four Quartets. Opinions my own, not my employer's.
So, you probably won't believe how desperate Starliner's flight to the space station got last summer ... arstechnica.com/space/2025/04/…
Amazingly enough, I'm coming up on a year of Tesla Y ownership. mrmoneymustache.com/the-model-y-ex… This car is so good, and is now so cheap considering its quality (about the same net price as a Toyota Rav4, Subaru Outback or even the new Toyota Prius) that I am kind of shocked that…
Social-emotional skills and work habits value-added measures are stronger predictors of long term impact than test score value add. A good school is much more than test scores. Such an important paper by @KiraboJackson et al. educationnext.org/linking-social…
Each casting replaces 70+ underbody parts—enabling us to produce real cars the same way toy cars are made
Fascinating tour of @Tesla #Berlin #Brandenburg Aluminum cast of the body replaces dozens of smaller parts. Less is better.👊🥰
It's officially news: T. rex had baboon-like numbers of brain neurons, which means it had what it takes to build tools, solve problems, and live up to 40 years, enough to build a culture! Paper is just out in J Comp Neurol. Reality was actually MORE terrifying than the movies!

How Neon Lights Work
Brisbane: there’s a sinkhole on Coronation Drive near Land St! @abcbrisbane
Elon and his companies always care about the big thing more than the small things. People will see many small things break, but he states each company’s mission and make sure it comes to be. “What is a company but a group of people working together to make something happen?”
The general public is just now waking up to @elonmusk’s style. They’re just not using to seeing a CEO so raw, unfiltered and unafraid to break things to determine their limits. All of his companies generate insane ROI on their R&D spend, and Twitter will be no different.
Engelmenn’s Direct Instruction, for numeracy
I’ll be discussing this outstanding individual, his epic tome ‘Theory of Instruction’ and his wonderful programmes including the inspirational outcomes they deliver on Saturday @researchEDScot1 in Aberdeen, my place of birth I might add. Nervous yet excited #ResearchEdAberdeen
When you make two sign errors in your math homework but they perfectly cancel each other out
Last coal shipment arrived in Hawaii at same time as Tesla Megapack batteries that will enable 24/7 sustainable energy
On @TheMasonCoxShow we talked about how the Welcome to Country being followed up by a minute of silence for the Queen felt awkward. Good on @DaisyPearce6 for making this statement. Always spot on with her comments.
Yeah of course :) Here's the paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.56… Here's the reporting: theguardian.com/australia-news… Here's something I wrote a while ago that informs this thread too: simonkatterlconsulting.com/writing/what-d…
A conversation with Ben Silbermann: Ben: I don't use Twitter a lot, but there's this one guy I follow. In fact you probably told me about him... Me: Massimo? Ben: Massimo! He's most of Twitter for me. (If you want to follow Massimo too, he's @Rainmaker1973.)
Whales evolved from a bizarre, vaguely whale-looking land animal called the Pakicetus that lived in Pakistan 50 million years ago.
The miracle of growth
Interesting paper on a topic I've looked into a good bit in the past: nature.com/articles/s4301… Photosynthesis is a very inefficient power source, and a way to replace it with an efficiently-generated chemical feedstock that could be converted to sugars would be highly desirable.
