It finally happened, breaking 5 sigma, the same statistical threshold physicists used to prove the existence of the Higgs boson.

At 2,700,000 km² below the 1991-2020 mean, Antarctic sea ice extent was 5.14σ below the mean, roughly a 1-in-7,400,000 chance.

@NickAbrahams That’s a good heckle

@JohnFinnemore Enjoyed this so much. A highlight was the bassoonist sketch with the extra tickle of the gay couple. Of course it wasn’t relevant to the sketch that it was a gay couple- any couple would do - which is why it was so good and rare. Played it to my partner as soon as he came home

I'm a HUGE fan of Bleak Expectations, written by the brilliant @iammarkevans. I loved it on the radio and am so excited that it's in the West End. I was really sorry I couldn't be one of the guest narrators this time round. Get your tickets here: https://t.co/7EwvBp1p72 @BleakExpPlay

@greg_jenner Love this podcast. There’s always some insight to take away

@JohnFinnemore Your walrus hurts the one you love. At least I think that’s how the saying goes

@sanditoksvig We were even luckier than we’d thought to see your wonderful show in Australia. Thank you. We hope you will come back to Australia when you are well again

[Nick Abrahams 🇦🇺 @NickAbrahams]

Thanks @AusCryptoCon - 4000 attendees shows u don’t have to go to Miami for a crypto convention. My topic was how Web3 is going Mainstream. Plenty of great stories to tell about large corporates embracing Web3 tech like crypto, NFT & the #Metaverse . Fun audience 😀#crypto #nft

We are pleased to have assisted the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission in obtaining orders, including a pecuniary penalty of AU$60 million, against Google in relation to its collection of Australian consumers’ personal location data. https://t.co/tqH4GcSwWE

An article I did for AFR. There are six kinds of NFTs, and you still need to care. Please check out my podcast as well “Web3: From Mystery to Mainstreet” - stories about normal companies embracing #crypto #nfts and the #Metaverse https://t.co/wZIB34zxtb

BBC weather putting Sydney’s downpour into context.
More rain there in 4 days than London gets in a year.

Honestly I think all humankind has been leading up to this moment

“Earning By Numbers” by Mark Graham

There’ve been lots and lots of lotteries
In countries south and north
Some paid out in pennies
In others cash poured forth
My favourite was Korea
The best of all bar none
You took a punt in Seoul and if
One won one won one Won

[Jim Lennon @jimlennon]

@GylesB1 Happy birthday to you from soggy Sydney in Australia. Your lightness, humour and warmth are just what we need right now. And I can’t help wondering whether the plate in the fish tank is some kind of warning to the fish

[Jim Lennon @jimlennon]

@DesignersGuild We adore the DG fabrics. Our lounge area pops with colour and texture. We are looking to buy more of a discontinued fabric: Foglia Leaf. The lime green velvet is so gorgeous near our garden. Anyone know where I can buy 4 metres of it? Maybe a big remnant?

I couldn't figure out where the comma(s) in "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" should go, so I hit myself in the face.
