There was a vote in Russia last week, on making Putin president for life. Sadly, it passed.
BUT the govt made a mistake & put all data online😄 Naturally, ppl scraped & analyzed it, as "lib" in @matplotlib@twitter.com stands for Liberty!!

@futuresprog@twitter.com @Celestron@twitter.com @BadAstronomer@twitter.com Can't be sure of species/kind without seeing the eyes- but this little spider is using some serious body language. Knees up over the face says "please please please leave me be." All animals communicate- we just need to learn the language!

Does anyone know the variety of potato that Crop & Food released around 2012? I did a quick search and the most recent I could find was ‘Moonlight’ in 1999-10.

@BadAstronomer@twitter.com Lewis, Lancaster, Meredith, & Walker 1994 cover this briefly (below). I was looking for Lewthwaite, Sutton, & Triggs 1997. Most papers that cite the latter also cover the effects of frying after storage.

Filled out another garbage survey. No Likert scales, amazingly. They managed to completely miss the point. At the end they really needed a tick box for

#tereo Tukemata (eyebrow) also means - fierce looks, frowning. He tukemata anō tō te taonga - Even wealth frowns. A proverb - being wealthy causes envy and a requirement (in traditional Māori thought) to be generous with that wealth.

Smarty pants who did the ordering of the Marvel collection on Disney+ have done a garbage job. The first MCU movie is *not* Avengers Infinity War and its sequel is not Iron Man.

Another brain teaser for artificial intelligence experts who want to sell me books:
If I was to search for a series of books, complete the sequence:
1. "Spider Man #1"
2. "Spider Man #2"
3. "Spider Man #3"
Next:
A. "Spider Man #4"
B. "Bat Man #23"
C. "Spider Bites, Illustrated"
