A Dutch researcher named Frank Hoogerbeets had predicted the Turkey earthquake two days before it had happened
Dude actually made this tweet on 3rd February, two days before the dreaded quake hit Turkey: Sooner or later there will be a ~M 7.5 #earthquake in this region (South-Central Turkey, Jordan, Syria,...
Dude actually made this tweet on 3rd February, two days before the dreaded quake hit Turkey:
Sooner or later there will be a ~M 7.5 #earthquake in this region (South-Central Turkey, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon). #deprem
What's interesting about this researcher is that he doesn't study earthquakes through the traditional or established way of Seismology. Instead, his institute, SSGEOS specializes in "monitoring geometry between celestial bodies related to seismic activity". It's incredible how little we know about the world we live in and how much more there is to know yet.

Because of my need for content, and HBO's The Last of Us releasing only an episode per week, I decided to watch a play through of TLoU 2. I played through TLoU 1 years ago but didn't want to buy a whole console just for one game.
Honestly I can't understand the amount of hate I've heard in online discussions. Part 2 drags on at times but overall I'm impressed with the narrative. Part 1 was a hard act to follow and part 2 did better than I'd expect for a sequel. I saw that Tildes had a discussion or two about this game around when it came out. Now that it's been a few years, how do you all feel? And related - how do you think the show will handle the story in season 2?

Sam Denby on how well negativity works on YouTube
