JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 06/10/2026OTOH, here’s a screenshot from the video posted elsewhere in this thread, but without the AI crumbs described above: 100
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 06/10/2026However, misshapen letters are a classic sign of AI-drawn text, and there are several examples: 100
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Correlation does not demonstrate causation. It’s disingenuous to post a graph with no analysis. The data shown in the OP can be explained in many ways, but most people seem to conclude “increased data center construction *caused* decreased home construction.” A larger time period says otherwise: 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I have an iPhone. A long press highlights the correct item, but does not select it. A short press selects the adjacent item. 100
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Is there an off-by-one error in the selector at the top, or am I misinterpreting the choices? 100
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Unfortunately, science writers often resort to clickbait titles like that one. Here’s another recent one - a prediction a few billion years in the future: 030
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Female athletes are “too dramatic”?!? <laughs in competitive swimming> 120
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Are you concerned - or maybe just curious - about smoke warnings due to recent wildfires, and what you should do? This website produces maps and other information about smoke density, its affect on health, and suggestions for limiting those effects. fire.airnow.gov 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Smoke (?) wafting past the sun in this video, recorded Wednesday in upstate NY. 020
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 16/07/2026<sigh> Is proofreading that hard? Spellcheck is *not* sufficient. 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Pink sun in upstate NY, with a wisp of smoke or cloud passing across the face 010
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 15/07/2026How is this “referring to the U.S. as a lower middle class country”? 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 23/06/2026That map is misleading. It only shows the six months around northern hemisphere summer. It severely understates the lightning density in Africa during portions of the year. You can see this in the image below, taken from this page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distrib... 2367
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 17/06/2026For the casual viewers: these temperature differences are compared against the already elevated temperatures of the end of the 20th century. 010
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I’m glad to see they’re angry. Maybe they’ll… I dunno… show up to vote in greater numbers next time? 241
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 20/04/2026In the 1990s, General Electric cut funding for research. This was arguably the beginning of the end for GE (though there were many other reasons). 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Congratulations to NASA for flying astronauts around the far side of the Moon! 010
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 17/03/2026I politely disagree. I am not very invested in this conversation, so I’ll leave you with this statement of purpose: 000
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 06/04/2025From the cold & rainy Albany NY #handsoff protest: Canada and USA: separate but sticking together! 😀 010
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 27/02/2025You may have been tricked into thinking that comment was real. These 4 comments, on Feb 4, 5, and 7, show that Smith did not approve of Musk’s actions at the time. 160
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 15/01/2025Yes, Israel achieved its goals of death and destruction and then agreed to a cease fire. They gave up little except for prisoners. 050
JeffV @jeffv.bsky.social · 05/01/2025…and narrow streets - it’s the white building on the left. But a view of the castle! 120
