      I guess we've run out of things to invent that are useful, and now we're on to things like this.

        Yeah. Probably even less useful than those weight-adjustable dumbbells.

                  Never realized this before but Trump, Bush II, and Clinton were all born within 9 weeks of each other. The earliest of baby boomers (though only W in the most literal sense), they all would have been conceived in the fall of 1945.

                        I had no idea. I always thought the 'Student's t test' was a strange name, I didn't realize it was named, or rather, misnamed after a person. And the work history is fantastic.

                          Would have been interesting to be a smart person in a day where it actually statistically mattered. I suppose most of the posters on this board would have been a revered intellectual when societies conformed to the number, what's that guy's name ... and I just asked ChatGPT, it's Dunbar's number.
