Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Cool reminder of the contributions to science made by Gregor Mendel.

- Happy belated 60th birthday to Calvin & Hobbes creator Bill Watterson. You've brought countless hours of joy to millions of readers.

- Interesting - Spiders can "fly" hundreds of miles using electricity.

- True

- What a great yet simple prank

- I for one welcome our smart weed-killing robot overlords

- Heh Heh (though I really didn't need that mental picture of why that warning was necessary)

    “They didn’t want the shows to be too interesting or plot-heavy (aka “normal”) that it distracted the viewer from their ‘primary screen’ of their phone. The streamers wanted to ensure that the viewer kept the streaming service on for as long as possible, something simply playing in the background and not intruding on their social media scrolling.”
