@1lenore Lenore’s probable next tweet: 60% “San Diego is so hot right now.” 40% “Who wants to drive to San Diego?”

@AskAboutAnimals @samanthaiam I was pondering the drag as well. It seems to me that if the drag was significant, the turtle would have evolved techniques for removing the remora. Following that logic, the drag must be below the threshold of significant caloric expenditure, right?

@damonmc @raymondh One sec, join() does not allow multiple arguments... and here I thought almost all the standard library functions did. I also discovered that it doesn't promote integers to strings, so ",".join([1,2,3]) doesn't return "1,2,3" like it should :-)

[gever tulley @gever]

@damonmc @raymondh Is this a situation where the one-liner docstring could include an example: Returns the concatenation of the given iterable(s) with the [self] string as the separator (i.e. ",".join(['a','b','c']) returns "a,b,c").

@NotABombBunkE You sure those aren't ferrets? (so cute!)

@jenniferturliuk Stop by Brightworks/TinkeringSchool and visit our Mars facility?

@smartinseb @ryokomatsumoto Just so gorgeous! What a delight!

It was a good day for working on a little boat. Made a mast from a eucalyptus sapling that was cut by tinkerers ten years ago, and a sail from a recycled kitesurfing wing. #tinkering #sailboat @ Montara, California https://t.co/o4hv9GBCft

Who is the shining star, bringing open-ended experiential learning to #NSTA22 ? @tinkeringLabs of course!

[Tinkering Labs @TinkeringLabs]

Of course, who would go into space without their duck? #tinkeringforall

[Tinkering Labs @TinkeringLabs]

Wow that duck is cookin' fast! Great work making a two-motor vehicle that goes in a straight line!

Physical making develops math foundations that are not typically taught or measured on tests! Join us at this in person workshop to learn more about how we integrate math into our project work.

@smartinseb @exploratorium @SFbrightworks Yes, I always have the voice of Seymour Papert whispering my ear

@georgebernhard @GammaCounter What? Even for very short blades? Clearly I need to speak to the House of Commons.

[gever tulley @gever]

People often ask me what present they should give a child. I have one universally positive answer: give them a pocket knife. At #tinkeringschool we like the #Opinel because of the locking blade and good handle. #giveakidaknife
