In my limited experience with static cards you really do just end up learning the "appearance" of a card, which is why I've been more successful with dynamic cards, like say a card showing a concordance randomly selected from a large corpus every review, showing the word I want to learn in various contexts.


Ha, looks like it's finally been flagged.


The aforementioned trapezoidal rule (Tai's method): https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/17/2/152/17985/A-M...


You may enjoy this, from a top-down experimental perspective (https://www.nikonsmallworld.com/galleries/small-world-in-mot...). Only a few entries so far show intracellular dynamics (like this one: https://www.nikonsmallworld.com/galleries/2024-small-world-i...), but I always enjoy the wide variety of dynamics some groups have been able to capture, like nervous system development (https://www.nikonsmallworld.com/galleries/2018-small-world-i...); absolutely incredible.


Very interesting, thanks.


I suppose so, but this message from NOAA (https://www.ospo.noaa.gov/data/messages/2025/06/MSG_20250625...) shows a period of five days til shutdown, which seems extremely abrupt.


It's honestly impressive how efficiently and smoothly things are regressing.


It is easier to destroy than to create.


Also, the decadence of the American people is contributing a lot. Tough to find time to care when the average person is spending 2-4 hours staring at 10-30 second bursts of entertainment. It’s depressing…


That "decadence" isn't the cause of the problems, but a symptom.


Not really a uniquely American thing. Not even a uniquely Western, nor uniquely "first world" activity.


Total apathy.

Obviously the comparisons aren't exact, but it's clear the show had a great many sources of inspiration (or maybe history rhymes as it always has).



Huh. I wonder what the difference is between this projection and the recentered [Nicolosi projection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolosi_globular_projection), which has been around for way longer.
