Really interested in this, what has happened here?
You know it's bad when even I have to agree as a Max fan
Ferrari doesn't look good at all in the rain...
Here is an AI-generated summary of this video for the people who don't want to go to YouTube with an added ELI5:
In this video, the host, Destin, explores why cats always land on their feet, a phenomenon known as the 'cat righting reflex'. He uses a cat named Gigi as an example and employs a high-speed camera to analyze the process.
Destin explains that when a cat falls, the first thing it does is try to figure out which way is up. It does this using the balance organ in its ear or its eyes. Then, the cat divides its body into two separate rotation axes that are tilted from each other. It pulls in its front paws, decreasing its moment of inertia at the front so it can spin quickly. At the same time, it extends its back legs, increasing its moment of inertia at the back, resulting in a smaller twist in the opposite direction. In this way, the cat compensates for the rotation and lands safely on its feet.
Destin emphasizes that cats have very flexible spines and no functioning collarbones, which contributes to their ability to perform this complex movement. He also notes that this phenomenon has baffled scientists and engineers for centuries and is studied in various fields, including physics, robotics, space satellite control, weapons development, and biomedical engineering.
The video ends with Destin playfully chasing Gigi and thanking the viewers for their attention. He encourages viewers to check out other cat videos and subscribe to his channel, Smarter Every Day.
ELI5 (Explain Like I'm 5): Imagine you're a cat and you're falling. You quickly figure out which way is up and down. Then, you do a clever trick. You pull your front legs close to your body and push your back legs away. This makes your front body spin fast and your back body spin slow, but in the opposite direction. It's like when you see ice-skaters spin really fast when they pull their arms in. Once you've twisted enough to face downwards, you just stretch out all your legs and get ready to land on your feet. It's a cool trick that cats can do thanks to their super flexible bodies!
Appreciated, thanks!
It's apparently catching my custom DNS adblock, which is too much of a hassle to switch off. It's NextDNS I'm running.
Unfortunately I am unable to read the full article, since motorsport.com doesn't allow adblockers, but I don't think it's a dumb take from Helmut. He knows Max will go for everything, which is what he doesn't want him to do. However, I feel like Red Bull needs to realize that this is how they keep Verstappen happy, otherwise I think he won't ever renew his contract. He wants to do more racing, so they should allow him to do stuff like this.
I don't miss Reddit. I checked some comment sections and holy hell is it toxic compared to here. I think part of that is because of what you've mentioned in your comment.
You can't say that and not add a picture! Cute name, that's lovely. Thanks for the compliment!

Lovely lady that loves to wake us up at 3:00... Still love her, though!
We’re announcing updates including more steerable API models, function calling capabilities, longer context, and lower prices.

Lower pricing, updated models and function calling. Some good new steps.
Do I need to deinstall from the Play Store in order to run the newest version? The app won't update when I try to install the APK from github.
How long would it generally take for the app to get updated in the Play Store? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm not very experienced with APK's.
There are some bots on Github that should get you started. I haven't tried any of them yet, so I can't recommend any specific ones, but if you have some coding experience you can take a look.
I quite like Bricks as well, but at work we mostly deliver client websites with Elementor.
Thanks for posting, appreciated! If anyone has any good articles or questions they want to share, feel free to post. I am the mod there and I'm ready to help out.
Ik maak zelf gebruik van zowel DEGIRO als BUX, maar ik ben benieuwd wat hier een beetje de consensus is.
