I'm taking psychology this semester (easily one of the more annoying classes I've had, but it's offered a LOT of insight into how the field has evolved over the last century, especially after a certain incident about... 45 years ago, give or take), and today we were covering psychopathology. It's very interesting...
Today I learned that 99.9% of all astronomical research is debugging shotty code and trying to understanding astronomically terrible coding packages.
(Just in case anyone doesn't know, this isn't true. It was part of a Jacksfilms Fake Facts video. Sorry if I ruined the joke by not playing along, especially considering I was the one who posted it.)
Today I (re)learned that social media is horrible and should permanently collapse under the weight of all its vitriol.
Today I learned that not everyone shares the same opinions as you. I also learned that even if I understand why not, I don't have to agree with them.
Today, I learned that *Ampharos is a Dragon/Electric type. And I also learned that my team has a weakness for dragon types. Edit: *Mega-Ampharos
That Avicii died... Honestly it was so unexpected, and I'm really bummed about it. His music may not have been super meaningful or complex, but it was catchy and fun, and there were many times where listening to his albums made me happy when I was feeling down. I just hope he is in a better place now.
