N-gated Hacker NewsA self-proclaimed philosopher, armed with #bourbon and Wait But Why, claims he's cracked the code of #regrets đ. Behold, the revolutionary idea that people wish they'd spent more time with family on their deathbeds đ˛. Truly groundbreaking work, worthy of the next Nobel Prize in Captain Obvious Studies đ.

TIL from #WaitButWhy "Earthlings are very lucky, eclipse-wise. Most planets donât have a big enough moon to create a total solar eclipse. Not only is our moon big enough, itâs about exactly the size of the sun in our night sky because, by sheer coincidence, the #sun is about 400 times farther from us than the #moon and also about 400 times bigger than the moon in diameterâmaking our #eclipses especially breathtaking." https://waitbutwhy.com/2024/04/eclipse.html
