While the telescope was scoping out Andromeda, the observer at the scope licked the glass membrane that separates the photons that hit the mirror from also hitting the tongue.
Using the field equations put forth by Ben Carson, we find that contamination on one side of the eyepiece and the photoelectric effect on the other side can, within the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, enable quantum tunneling by the Boring Co. ball cap that the observer was wearing at the time.
Whether this actually happened, we must defer and refer to Schrödinger's cat.

... highlights you to recruiters.
And to current employer.
I retired from a law firm and I recommended that the lawyers stay off the platform because none of the lawyers were looking to work somewhere else.
However, I signed up on LinkedIn under an alias so I could snoop -- for my lawyers.
It's incredible what people share out there.
... I did.
When the boss's son got married, the firm had me give her an email in our domain.
I really, really, made a scene telling any and all how bad an idea that was.
Predictably, she sent out all kinds of shit, and recipients and the firm was challenged on several occasion regarding the content.
Sure enough, I sent the guy an email about a meeting and he forwarded it to her so she'd know where he's be.
She hit, "Reply to all ..." and I got the following shit:
Honey, I enjoyed last night very much but you are going to have to control yourself.
Your violence did not excite me, it scared me.
I didn't know you were like this at all.
I'm not into dom/sub and you should have asked me before you ...
Goddam.
I had to take it to him.
He finally got a fucking clue and got her a Gmail.
Shit.
That's because I'm the only one you know.
It was uncomfortable for me, as well.
I got to where I'd establish ground rules: No backstories. In 15 seconds, tell me the fucking punch line.
I may already know enough of the story to make a call.
If not, I'll ask for details, working in reverse order, until I get what I need.
I didn't say, "Shut up," (but I don't have a problem with that). I said, "Stop!"
... shut up while I'm talking.
Exactly.
How many people are NOT aware of the Equifax breach?
How many people still use Equifax?
They have access to accurate information -- they are living right in the goddam middle of it.
Do you suppose the entire fucking population of China doesn't know what kind of government it has?
I predict things are going to go sideways like it did in the USSR, and it won't be because of access to the fucking Internet.
It will be economics all the way down.
... with it.
It's not like the Chinese people are just now finding out about government suppression/oppression.
What good does it do for the citizens to have access to outside news?
They've had it before and haven't done anything.
If China brought down the goddam Great Firewall entirely, what would the citizens do?
Nothing.
Maybe.
I strip all EXIF from any photo that leaves any of my devices.
About the only time I turn on location data for photos is in the Spring, taking pictures of blackberry blossoms.
Later on, I can return to those spots, where the berries are extremely hard to find, once the bright white blossoms are gone.
You would enjoy:
The Quantum Labyrinth: How Richard Feynman and John Wheeler Revolutionized Time and Reality by Paul Halpen, who worked with both.
The story of the unlikely friendship between the two physicists who fundamentally recast the notion of time and history
Feynmans's antics are quite legendary and discussed here.
Read it.
In fact, I have read all of his.
Very informative and entertaining for we lay.
Don't agree.
I contributed a post, commented on a couple, and now have some reviews that motivate me to pick something different to read.
I read that trilogy LONG ago and re-read it a few months back.
Stupendous both time.
... like:
- Einstein's Dice and Schrödinger's cat
- The Quantum Labyrinth
- The Black Hole War
- Tales of the Quantum
This is actually not farfetched.
While the telescope was scoping out Andromeda, the observer at the scope licked the glass membrane that separates the photons that hit the mirror from also hitting the tongue.

No.
Because Facebook has to store the photos and they strip EXIF to make the files smaller.
Which is a good thing.
... I'm a photographer and the EXIF Data is stripped when I upload a photo.
He's avoiding "resume slime."
He's young and has his whole career ahead of him.
He can point to this moment as one that defines him as a valuable asset any where in the world.
Hell, he may wind up in China.
He's got the chops.

... and we had no use for this.
The Navy band was great, though.

You're why all this matters.
Why can't the other side of this argument ...
Ask them.
The two are not mutually exclusive.
It's kinda obvious that some people are uncomfortable with the terminology.
How difficult is it for pliable minds to simply adopt another set of words to describe, precisely, the same thing?
What motivation exceeds being polite?
... also known as "being polite."
I thank him for his service, and his family for supporting him.
I attended A and B schools at NAS Memphis.
See, this why no one calls you, "celery."
You're a piss poor stalker.
In 1966 I was in Uncle Sam's Yacht Club out on the Big Pond.
They had computers back then. They filled a whole goddam classroom and used a LOT of electricity.
It was vacuum tubes all the way down. Those filaments that glow were fucking hot in summer.
Winter, we'd open all the windows and it was pretty nice.
It had eight toggle switches. We'd throw them in binary order and each had a light: On was one; Off was zero.
It had two registers and we would toss numbers in and all we could do was add, subtract, and compare ... same or different.
Most of the time we were replacing blown tubes.
