It isn't just AI generated text that is starting to bleed over into search results. The main image if you do a Google search for Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwoʻole (whose version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow you have probably hear) is a Midjourney creation right from Reddit.

For fun I downloaded the data and ran a quick periodicity search, and I calculated that one lunar (synodic!) month lasts 29.62 days. Only off by 0.3%!
Lomb-Scargle periodogram of page views to the Wikipedia article "Full moon". There's a sharp peak at 29.62 days, near the true synodic period, as well as higher harmonics.

Just a brief reminder that we are all standing around on the delicate thin frozen surface of a droplet of molten lava hurtling through space at a little over 2 million kilometers per hour.

This is wrong. Null findings are as important as new findings for research. They may be less exciting but they need to be published!

Paper rejected after satisfactory revise&resubmit, because of NULL FINDINGS (that were, for the record, in the initial submission). A PhD student’s paper, I can’t tell you how much rage I’m feeling right now.

Calling All New Yorkers… 8:12 pm, NYC Time Monday, May 29, 2023 Tuesday, May 30, 2023 Crowds gather. Traffic halts. Cross streets glisten with fiery orange light, rendering otherwise-shadowed urban canyons aglow. Behold sunset on the Manhattan grid. Behold #Manhattanhenge.

I just went through rather a lot of effort to rescue a garden spider that had gotten into my kitchen, only to have my dog go outside and promptly eat it.

Yes, my trained service dog. I suppose she considers this one of the services she provides.

Seems like a good day to post Ted Chiang’s essay in the New Yorker on who is most likely to benefit from the AI paradigm shift, as things stand. newyorker.com/science/annals…

I frequently get messages from students asking if they can interview me via Zoom or similar for their school assignments. It is my very strong opinion that those are not good assignments (bad for all involved), and teachers shouldn't give them. Here's why: astrokatie.com/student-reque…

Why do I get the feeling the Doge icon was added so when you search "Elon" and "Doge" the story of his racketeering lawsuit will be buried?
