Dude was a comedian who ended up with a dumb kids show for 4 years. And from that he's just inserted himself anywhere he can. lol

DapperDon posted:Bill Nye just traded in his rep for this bullshit. Bill right before the skit "This lady has a great message to get out I hope you all enjoy it" Bill right after "Wow great job this sends exactly the right message" Bill Nye is actually a anti gay Nazi plant. But for real though that entire show is literally modern propaganda. Bring the cool soviet posters back.

He's not a scientist but people keep referring to him as an expert. Dudes just an actor who made a cool show a lot of us watched in science class.

spacetoaster posted:I wonder what Wingman is up to these days..... Since wireframe sectoids or w/e came up, I was wondering about the plant jars. I don't have a screenshot on hand, but did you ever notice how the top of the jar is curved right? It looks like they capped off a cylinder with a hemisphere, but every loving one has a super obvious seam where the two touch. If there's modelers or somebody who knows what I'm talking about, what causes this and how should it actually have been done to avoid it?

In the US. He's always been a bit of a mystery outside of the US, but; He's one of the few people that could burn his career going after the Climate Deniers, and that has metastasized into a wider defense of reason because Peach pits can totally cure cancer, guys. NDT also. One of a very small group of people willing to take on the dumbfucks who believe that God is going to step in and moderate temperatures. Seriously. So I'll give him his misses as long as Lamar Smith and James Inhofe draw breath. Hopefully it won't actually kill science programming.

Good news friend. The death of science will not rest on his shoulders since the Trump administration is wiping that out all on their own with nobody that can stop them.

Dunno, there's a bunch of out of work scientists wondering what's so difficult about this Politics lark. That's going to provide for some chuckles there. Also, I wouldn't lay this at Trump's door; the GOP has been banging that particular drum since the 1998 Gubernatorial, he's just doubling down on the stupid.

My curiosity revolves around at what point do the people just snap at something Trump has done and invoke the time honored tradition the French devised for dealing with people like him.

thatguy posted:Does engineering not count as science? No, slightly different disciplines. Engineering is the application of sciences and relies on success. Science tends to create new information and relies on failure. There's an apocryphal story of a scientist asked how to counter the Submarine menace during the cold war, 'Boil the oceans' was the reply. 'How?', 'That's an engineering problem'.
