A journey of a 1000 steps reaches its happy destination. Congratulations @RobSims9115312 on the well deserved and happy occasion of PhD graduation.

Ah! The throwback to childhood spent reading and re-reading Sagan's Cosmos. Immediately reminded me of the Drosophila experiment mentioned in the chapter "One Voice in the Cosmic Fugue". Extraordinary claims need extraordinary evidence, which still fits Occam's Razor.

• Sagan's Razor

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

The weight of proof rests with the person making a claim, and the more unusual the assertion, the more substantial the evidence needed.

You should ask for solid proof if someone says they saw a unicorn.

In the past two days, I have seen over a dozen cyclists travelling towards Uni without proper gear, riding on sidewalks, and wearing noise cancelling headphones.

@LancasterUni , @LancasterSU : With lots of students cycling to Uni, a gentle reminder that you share the A6 with people going 75🍌/s in 1 ton rust buckets using the liquified bones of our distant ancestors. Please follow the Highway Code. #StaySafe https://t.co/1BsjNgMdhz

10 years in Lancaster. Considering the mountain of things that went wrong, thankful for the literal handful of things that went right.

Another beautiful day at @SCC_Lancaster

@scientistswrite In my field, yes. We rarely see single-blind reviews.

#EmergencyAlert Peak British humour 😄

We have now finished with our trial of the #EmergencyAlert system

If you did not receive an alert on your mobile phone, then this was due to the fact that you are not scheduled to survive the upcoming extinction level event

Asked DALL.E to generate a photorealistic render of a Pikachu... now I will never sleep again... #bowlofPetunias

Sun's shining, breeze's blowing, sky's blue, not a cloud in sight... it's hot but it's cool too... move over Millenium Bridge, we've got a new favourite #AtalBridge

One of these will haunt me in my dreams... why does AI think humans have 4 or 6 fingers? And an unnaturally large number of teeth in the front?
