I like PBS documentaries. I can’t recall if “The bat man of Mexico” was a NOVA episode or a one of (I checked, it was a Nature episode- https://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/about-bat-man-mexico/25220/), but I’m pretty sure that’s where I learned that bit of useless trivia. He tracked the bats by making their poop glow!

I am completely useless for remembering people’s names, and barely hit and miss with dates, but useless information sticks OK.

22 Problems Solved in 2022

spawnflagger says...

I've personally seen the GoGoRo electric scooters mentioned #15 - it's a neat idea, and the battery-swap "kiosks" are conveniently located and fast/easy to use.
It's a good solution for any country that already has a large scooter infrastructure (like Taiwan), but don't think it would ever get adopted in USA.

Pool Dreams It’s A Waterfall

Squid changing color - not just for octopuses!

newtboy says...

What do they mean “ Recently, scientists in Japan were surprised to find a species of oval squid raised in captivity could change its coat, depending on whether its tank was clean or covered in algae.”…are they students, because I saw this described and demonstrated in 88 in my marine biology class in Hawaii….then we dissected it….then we cooked and ate it as a class. Interesting teacher.

Absolutely not the first time they’ve been “caught” doing this…maybe the first time with high definition cameras, in one specific laboratory condition, with that specific species, raised in captivity, but this is every day behavior for many cephalopods, including squid, and absolutely not a new discovery.

Let’s see them decipher the intense flashings, strobing, color waves, slow fades, etc that they use to communicate and hunt. That might be a first….but I doubt it. Others have studied their insane chromatophores and their amazingly mailable mantles and how they use them for decades if not longer.

This is a neat bit of biology, but to pretend they just discovered this is outrageously dishonest. Get real, people knew squid camouflaged themselves amazingly well long before that guy named Jesus was fathered by a forced pedophilic inception. Almost like saying scientists just discovered newts like it moist, or that water is wet.

This Video Is A HIPAA Violation!

StukaFox says...

Yay!! We're in MY WORLD right now! HIPAA is the reason I get paid what I do, but the real nuts on my sundae is THIS little motherfucker:

You don't even remotely understand how esoteric and convoluted this goddamn thing is, and how hard your pee-pee will get whacked if you fuck up implementing it. I have to do audits against this shit. There's THOUSANDS of questions and the auditors will not tell you the criteria for passing. I've had audits come back that looked like a 2nd grader submitting her paper, "Frogs are neat!" to the Harvard Review Board and yet passed, and I've had audits with two ultra-specialized misses on them that got the whole audit disqualified. I spend more time on documentation -- and the endless, ENDLESS paperwork that comes along with that shit -- than actually doing the technical stuff.

tl;dr: I like turtles.

Hidden Tool in an Outlet Few Know

noseeem says...

fatefully, saw thing video...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUlvrX4R3jI...while back and it mentions that feature. perhaps it's just there to be there. like "why climb mountains". handy, and why not? comment section mentioned a neat feature also - although might be ingenuity on the commenter's part and not the designer.

mxxcon said:

Seems like both of these "tools" might be specific to that/some brands of outlets. Doesn't seem like these features are critical to a certified outlet design.
Also what's the usefulness of builtin wirestripper? What are the chances that you get to installing outlets but don't have any tools at hand? Seems like a solution to a non-problem.

Ratchet Strap Myths - busted and confirmed

spawnflagger says...

neat comparison, but so many different brands and results it's hard to say which is "best". was nice to see the cheapest Husky did fairly well. I wouldn't attempt to hold 3000 lbs on a 1" strap though, so no need to buy the strongest. I have Harbor Freight ones that were on sale at the time, and they've held up fine for years (occasional use).

A material that destroys the things that try to cut it

oh cool!

What I like is the harkening backwards.
The plastic matrix with the granite chips was the answer to the WW II problem of armor plating merchant ships against strafing. Neat to see it re-emerge
