Today I surpassed my count of push-ups for all of 2020 — when I started my calisthenics fitness adventure. I did 175 today, 84 in the first set. The last 26 were with parallettes.
I do decline push-ups now with a 29½-cm offset (elevation at the feet). I raised the offset in February after exceeding my target of two sets of 100 reps with the 11½ offset I us…

The first 3 weeks of February were as warm as a normal April, here in the Netherlands: average 8.9⁰C, that's about 5⁰C warmer than the already warmed 1991-2020 average for February.
Given the forecast, the whole month will definitely be the warmest February on record too.

Curiously, though, the FBI did get separate warrants for all the other devices backed up separately.

A trove of documents details many of the conversations among Trump campaign lawyers, and the theories offered by Kenneth Chesebro, an attorney who worked with the campaign in the months leading up to Jan. 6.
Within weeks of Trump denouncing the election itself and claiming that he had won, Chesebro and Trump campaign attorneys around him began to explore exotic legal theories in which endless chaos in Congress would prove that the legislature could not certify a winner.

Microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud based on 20 years of OGLE observations

arXiv:2403.02398v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) can be used to probe the distribution and mass function of compact objects in the direction toward that galaxy - in the Milky Way disk, Milky Way dark matter halo, and the LMC itself. The previous measurements, based on small statistical samples of events, found that the optical depth is an order of magnitude smaller than that expected from the entire dark matter halo in the form of compact objects. However, these previous studies were not sensitive to long-duration events with Einstein timescales longer than 2.5-3 years, which are expected from massive ($10-100\,M_{\odot}$) and intermediate-mass ($10^2-10^5\,M_{\odot}$) black holes. Such events would have been missed by the previous studies and would not have been taken into account in calculations of the optical depth. Here, we present the analysis of nearly 20-year-long photometric monitoring of 78.7 million stars in the LMC by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) from 2001 through 2020. We describe the observing setup, the construction of the 20-year OGLE dataset, the methods used for searching for microlensing events in the light curve data, and the calculation of the event detection efficiency. In total, we find 16 microlensing events (thirteen using an automated pipeline and three with manual searches), all of which have timescales shorter than 1 yr. We use a sample of thirteen events to measure the microlensing optical depth toward the LMC $\tau=(0.121 \pm 0.037)\times 10^{-7}$ and the event rate $\Gamma=(0.74 \pm 0.25)\times 10^{-7}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}\,\mathrm{star}^{-1}$. These numbers are consistent with lensing by stars in the Milky Way disk and the LMC itself, and demonstrate that massive and intermediate-mass black holes cannot comprise a significant fraction of dark matter.

Republican strategists expect most of the party’s primary voters to support Mr. Trump in the general election, pointing to exit polls that found that 4 in 10 of Ms. Haley’s voters in New Hampshire and South Carolina had backed Mr. Biden in 2020.
