Civilisation, BBC documentary, 1969
On telly tonight, BBC4, 9:10PM.
History of everything, from the dark ages to the 20th century, in 13 x 1 hour episodes.
Some say it's the best thing the BBC ever made. Others point out they "forgot" to mention women.

Offs, B3ta, please sort out short youtu.be links.
It's www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2lmlDp2WGg

They work fine now.
The auto-preview is a bit wonky though. Click edit then untick the “don’t use auto preview” box, then save the post.
Getting YouTube shorts to embed is a bit more problematic.

Did that, doesn't seem to have worked. I'll make a manual image, I guess.

You also need to remove everything after the ? as well as the ?
i.e. youtu.be/b2lmlDp2WGg
Academic really, given that you can’t embed that video anyway.

I tried, but it doesn't seem to let you edit the URL.
I tried editing the text at the same time; still didn't work - the link is the original one, with a ?si=rjMpch7qehY2INP7 on the end.

Can’t remember if you can edit the URL. You can’t change titles for certain.

Not a fanboy, just pointing out that Face ID uses 3D imaging. But if you can fool a fingerprint sensor with a gummy bear anything is possible.

Played it for a while this afternoon...
more of a visual novel so far, but I think there are more gameplay elements further in.
Be warned, though, that it's a work in progress, with additional content added every few months or so.

Cursed Units (mainly SI, not that funny imperial stuff)
I went down a rabbit hole and after wracking my wine-addled brain with some cunning geometry problems (50%, since you asked) I came across this....
Beautiful in its presentation and content, and even citing XKCD, ... what's not to like?

Dimensional analysis really is very interesting.
But I don't understand what his problem with kilowatt-hours is.

Me neither
As a billing unit it makes perfect sense, for electricity anyway. Gas bills? Probably less so, but it does allow a meaningful comparison between them.
Sure it eventually cancels down to Joules, but that’s not an intuitively understandable unit.

Surely it's better than BTU though!
I was very happy when they swapped to kWh for precisely the reason you said - you could directly get a feel for the relative costs, although for heating purposes it can be misleading if you don't account for boiler efficiency etc.

Mathematically speaking, that's correct.
But a lot of programming languages allow mathematical operations on strings, and that would be the correct result.

Refused entry three times, arf.
YT link also very nearly spells “repent”. The algorithm is apparently developing some sense of morals, or a dry sense of humour.
ed: Turns out the refused entry thing was the previous rent boy scandal. Mea culpa.

He used to be a trade envoy for Columbia apparently; must have got a bulk rate on marching powder back then. He’s been in trouble over foreign rentboys before so speculation on what he needed five grand for at 3am this time is hovering between prostitutes and drug dealers. Or both.
