This is why the concept of statistical outlier and standard deviation exists.
Had I seen something like this in any analysis I would either assume some fault in the measurement (either reading or technical) or error in punching the data. Then ignored the result if it couldn’t be reproduced, but leave it in the raw data/graph/figure and explain the exlution.

Not seen the movie but I assume she behaves like a 22 yo as well?
That’s one of the many things that threwe with LotR Rings of Power was how Galadriel behaved like a teen while being between 3,412 and 5,353 years old.

The OP laments how he did his PhD because he wanted an academic career, and how his PhD didn’t land him a professorship. Given how he must have spent 5 years at some institution or other, and have at least some success seeing how he got the PhD student position in the first place. My point was that how he in those 5 years didn’t figure out how hard it is to become a professor I find strange.

TBH if you attend 5 years at uni and don’t catch on how few professors there are to literally everyone else at the university perhaps your reasoning skills are not that great.
I mean I did 5 years with a master in thermodynamics (physical chemistry) and my section had 20 offices. Three had a professor in them.
Top sciencetists are is like top athlets. The same drive, dedication and forsaking other things to be best.

Scientific American points to an important fact. *With our latest surveys, such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and Euclid, by my very rough estimation, we’ve taken pictures of somewhere around 100 million galaxies out of the two trillion or so estimated to exist in the entire observable universe.
Shamir’s paradigm-shattering conclusion relies on 263 of them.*
They are discussing bias in the selection

We are part of the EEA. The agreement between the EU and the remaining EFTA members. (Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein and Switzerland.) For Norway’s part it means we adopt the legislation as nationl law (we can veto, but sdom happens) and are part of the inner market but not the customs union. Also special agreements on energy (oil) agriculture and fishing. We have no representation in the parliament or the commission. We participate on beurocratic level but cannot vote on anything. (I represent Norway in two 'group of experts" and two administrative cooperation groups) GoE discusses things on a higher level AdCo lower level and market surveile. We have a voice, but always a little bit apart.

Thats a great feeling. I did extremely low level tech support for other students while at uni. in 2003 (Think issuing user names, filling copy paper, sorting out storage spave allocation on the shared drives.) Small part time job that paid for boze. A girl came in with a 3.5" floppy disk on the verge of tears and said she couldn’t get the file on it. It was her master thesis and the only place she had stored it. We still had floppy disk drives and I slitted it in and used a dos shell to acess a: but nothing. No disk in drive. I took the floppy out and noticed that the metal protection of the actuall disk (that soft plastic circle) didn’t slide properly. To me it looked like the spring was just to worn and had no tension. Took it of and could then access the files on it. Error was that the spring wasn’t able to slide the metal protector away when inserted into the reader.
Copied the files to her “home” area, sent a copy by email and gave her a new floppy with the files and told her about the importance of back ups.
The sheer look of relief and gratitude was priceless.

- Comment on Little miracles 3 months ago:
That’s true. But for cheap, readily available, plant based and often short traveled food with decent amount of protein it always struck me as hard to beat. Easy to cook, and can be eaten cold. I usually make it into overnight oats with nuts and Greek style yoghurt (tho then it’s no longer vegan.)

No. But probably diluted. But if you drink all the liquid it’s suspended/dissolved in you still get all. Its just that nutritional information is given for dry.
Cooking it will probably denature it (unfold it so to speak) making the amino acids more available. But all there
