AI Thread Summary
Two bright objects were observed in the northern Alberta sky, moving in tandem and appearing to approach the International Space Station (ISS) before turning south. The observer, who has a keen interest in astrology and often watches the sky, is seeking confirmation from others who may have seen the same phenomenon and is inquiring about available video footage from the ISS or NASA. The discussion includes skepticism, with suggestions that the lights could be reflections or imagined, and a commentary on the balance between scientific explanation and the allure of mystery in life.

Do you wear glasses?
Maybe an internal reflection, of the headlights of the Uber delivery vehicle.

Maybe you imagined the lights.

Why do you need to know?
There is too much science, we need more mystery in our lives.
 

Thread 'Predictions for the Nobel Prize in Physics 2025'

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...

Thread 'My experience as a hostage'

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
