He's fine as a doctor, but the stories this season have been awful. The show has a huge budget, great actors, but it feels like they're being written by ChatGPT.

That couch room is awful. No room for anything else in that room, and the way they took the picture it makes it seem like some people are going to sit on the couches and ambush / surprise someone who walks in through that single door.
The big empty white room with a small unplugged TV up on a mini stage is... a choice.
The decoration is pretty terrible. Insanely overly ornamental decorations on the wall mirror and the mirror in the bathroom, next to paintings with a very plain frame. A very bright blue toilet and sink in a bathroom where the rest of the theme seems to be metallic. A kitchen where there seems to be a mix of 70s style and modern stainless steel. Wow, and all the other bathrooms are very ugly. And how many bathrooms are there? The only decent one is the beige one. But, then there's the all-beige office which is... wow.
The outside is nice. The floor-to-ceiling windows are awesome, but the heating cost would be pretty awful. Basically, good architecture, but some really questionable design choices.
Very patriotic.
Unlimited fusion power in a decade or so.
As it has always been.
Whatever happens, it should require a supermajority to leave. Say 50.1% of the population vote to leave so it's on, then some people change their minds or some people die while others turn 18, then it's 49.9% who want independence so it's off. I don't know if 55% is enough, or 60%, or 67%. But, it should be enough that whatever decision is made, it's not going to immediately become unpopular.
If you want famous actresses who contributed to technology, you want Hedy Lamarr:
At the beginning of World War II, along with George Antheil, Lamarr co-invented a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes that used spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology to defeat the threat of radio jamming by the Axis powers.
One reason is that tar supports both traditional style args "tar tf <filename.tar>" and unix-style args "tar -tf <filename.tar>" but there are subtle differences in how they work.
You can throw Margaret Hamilton in there, who was in charge of the software team that landed people on the moon. The picture of her standing next to a printout of the Apollo guidance software is iconic.
No, I don't think so. It's true that many of the earliest programmers were female, but there were very few of them, and that was a long time ago.
In a way, Ada Lovelace was the first programmer, but she never even touched a computer. The first programmers who did anything similar to today's programming were from Grace Hopper's era in the 1950s.
In the late 1960s there were a lot of women working in computer programming relative to the size of the field, but the field was still tiny, only tens of thousands globally. By the 1970s it was already a majority male profession so the number of women was already down to only about 22.5%.
That means that for 50 years, a time when the number of programmers increased by orders of magnitude, the programmers were mostly male.
It's amazing to me that they can even measure a 0.01 XG shot. This comes from James Benge's twitter account.
The XG graph is also interesting. Tottenham has a continuous stream of very low quality shots, resulting in the graph going up in tiny increments. Arsenal has a series of decent chances near minute 17, and then the one high-quality shot resulting in Gabriel's goal.

I'm sure part of it is Arsenal defending in a low block after scoring. But, it also smacks of desperation on Tottenham's part. If you're taking a shot that has a 1% chance of going in, rather than passing and waiting for a better opportunity, you don't believe that you're going to get a better opportunity.

I used something recently where it wasn't possible to use the traditional-style args. I think it was a "diff", which meant I needed a "-f". It wasn't a big deal, but, occasionally it does happen.
