    funny thing, when I read stuff aloud, it's like DMA, it doesn't go through the CPU, and I can't recall what I've heard. I only retain what I read if I read it quietly

    Even with mass-energy equivalency, it is much easier to change mass into energy than the other way around. But as far as changing an object's *weight* by pressing a button, that should be possible. Weight is dependent on both on the mass and distance separating two (or more) objects, or the acceleration of an object. If pressing the button initiates something to accelerate that object away from another object then its weight will change...

    (Note: Pedantic me has not yet watched Eureka, so I don't know how this weight-changing object is used)

    nah, it was entirely fictional AFAIK. Eureka was the fictional city of genius inventors in the series. no amount of internal motors could enable a ball to dynamically change its weight. though mass is energy, in day-to-day life you can most often assume it's conserved, which is why I found it so creative and amusing

    15 years?!? The Toronto Maple Leafs haven't won a Stanley Cup since 1967!

    ♲ @mbeisen@twitter.com: because of vaccine mandates we’re losing teachers who don’t believe in science, healthcare workers who don’t believe in medicine, and police who don’t believe in public safety…

    Maybe they don't have to quarantine, but they're *very very* close!

    I'm not superstitious, but this works even if you don't believe it :-)

    Reminds me of a riddle I heard in high school (around the time Canada switched to metric): If it's 0 Celsius here, and twice as cold in Ottawa, what's the temperature there?

    Conflating both the #ZeroIsNotMinimum problem and a negatively worded question about positive values.

    Think of "If it's 273 Kelvin here, and twice as cold in Ottawa"... would that be 546 Kelvin in Ottawa, or 136.5 Kelvin?
