Honestly, sorting algos are serious nerd shit. They're for suckers and losers. If it's not worth doing, insertion sort every day of the week. Compute is cheap. If it's actually important, then it's TimSort (it's never important).

Honestly, in a stable tank with a solid ecosystem and no chemicals you shouldn't need to test anything, usually.

I just got the shrimp, and they're especially sensitive to water parameters. I'm being cautious.

Like bleach, acid, alcohol, and fire: Copper is pretty good at killing things.

We happen to be bigger things than most, so we have more resistance to it, but we're not immune.

I test my aquarium for copper fairly frequently because it i something that can kill my shrimp in small doses.

They sell copper nails that can poison a tree.

Out of the hundreds of judges, over 97% were born on Earth.

All 97%, and all of the remaining 3%, have lived on or in the orbit of Earth for the past three consecutive years. Their financial records indicate that their income is primarily from terrestrial sources.

Maybe I'm bad at counting, but there is more than 24 people sitting in the forground. In the background section, there's even more. (press?)

(The women count as people, right?)

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I swear, but I think Trump had a minor stroke. That's exactly what it sounds like.

We'll see in future appearances, I guess.

Trusting equipment you didn't check gets you killed.

A fuckton of Newtons perpendicular to a support beam is different from 1k Newtons downward

It's a close-up shot; the planet in this photo is actually much bigger than Australia.
