From Wikipedia:

John Wilder Tukey (/ˈtuːki/; June 16, 1915 – July 26, 2000) was an American mathematician and statistician, best known for the development of the fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm and the box plot.

The comic strip was published on June 18 2025, two days after Tukey’s 110th birthday. The last sentence combines a precise but wrong statement (Tukey would be 110,000 years old today) with an imprecise but correct statement (his birthday is some time that week).

Probably Python and R for statistical analysis, which is common nowadays in most empirical sciences.

Awesome, thank you!

How long can you keep your kimchi in the fridge? Care to share the recipe? I’ve tried to make kimchi a few times, but I never get the mixture quite right, so mine doesn’t last very long (about 2-3 weeks).

Gale: The book I read said this is what people look like.

Wyll: My family would normally hire a local artisan, but here’s my own version.

Karlach: Who’s a happy little vampire! (… it’s you!)

Shadowheart: This is you on a good day. Too smiley for my taste, but I guess it comes with the teeth.

Curry paste, coconut milk, kaffir lime leaves, and fish sauce (add near the end) are the most important things. Cock brand curry paste is the best I can get where I live and works very well (red/green, or yellow if you want it milder). For the fish sauce, the brand is less important, but Squid brand is good. I also think the rice is pretty important, so try to get decent Jasmine rice (store-bought works fine).

I think the concern initially was that cold brew may be more prone to bacterial contamination than normal coffee, because it has lower acidity and the water used to make it is not boiled. But like the study you linked found, it seems to be safe at least when refrigerated.

God of War has two big strengths that make it a great game in my opinion. The first is the story with its great characters, presentation, and voice acting. The second is the overall “feel” of the game, which can be a bit “game-y” at times but is really tight overall with only a handful of core mechanics that are exceptionally well implemented.

Eh, IMO it’s more like four methods stacked on top of each other wearing a trench coat.

I can say with some pride that I have at least co-authored papers with null results, and they did get published. I’m not arguing that what you suggest isn’t true, but I have hope.

Assuming that “masterpiece” refers to the quality and impact the games had in their time (not how well they aged) some of my picks would be:

• Baldur’s Gate 2 + ToB
• Star Wars: KotoR
• Morrowind
• Read Dead Redemption 2
• The Witcher 3
• The Last of Us 1+2
• God of War
• Shadow of the Colossus
• The Legend of Zelda: BOTW
• Mass Effect 1+2
• Disco Elysium
• Half Life 2
• BioShock 1
• Diablo 2
• Fallout 2

I don’t know how objective this list is. Some picks are definitely subjective and fit more in a “flawed masterpiece” category of games that had a large impact on how I perceived games but that may not be so widely acclaimed as some others on this list.

Actually, this is Stannis Baratheon from The Witcher.

Null results are still results!

Never said it was undeserved. The devs did a lot of things right, and they deserve all the positive feedback they get. It just didn’t click with me personally in a way that I felt like I needed to add to the hype.

It’s pretty good, although I think the hype is a bit over the top. The game is well done, enjoyable, and plays a lot like a modern JRPG (think Persona 5 and others).

Reviewer 2 didn’t read my paper and makes it my problem. Trump didn’t read a book in his life and makes it the world’s problem.

When you drive an SUV, and you don’t use it go over the curb and block the handicapped spot, are you really driving one?
