#2725 Sunspot Cycle Who can forget the early 2010s memes? 'You know you're a 90s kid if you remember the feeling of warm sunlight on your face.' 'Only 90s kids remember the dawn.'
#2726 Methodology Trial If you think THAT'S unethical, you should see the stuff we approved via our Placebo IRB.
#2727 Runtime At least there's a general understanding all around that Doctor Who is its own thing.
#2728 Lane Change Highway I just think lane markers should follow the local magnetic declination.
#2729 Planet Killer Comet Margarita I'll take mine on the rocks, no ice.
#2730 Code Lifespan Surely (no one/everyone) will (recognize how flexible and useful this architecture is/spend a huge amount of effort painstakingly preserving and updating this garbage I wrote in 20 minutes)
#2731 K-Means Clustering According to my especially unsupervised K-means clustering algorithm, there are currently about 8 billion types of people in the world.
#2732 Bursa of Fabricius If an anatomical structure is named for a person, it means they were the only person to have it. Pierre Paul Broca had a special area of his brain that created powerful magnetic fields, enabling him to do 19th century fMRI research.
#2733 Size Comparisons If you shrank the Solar System to the size of Texas, the Houston metro area would be smaller than a grasshopper in Dallas.
#2734 Electron Color There's quark color, but that's not really color--it's just an admission by 20th century physicists that numbers are boring.
#2735 Coordinate Plane Closure 3D graphs that don't contact the plane in the closure area may proceed as scheduled, but be alert for possible collisions with 2D graph lines that reach the hole and unexpectedly enter 3D space.
#2736 Only Serifs If you ever want to get beaten up by a bunch of graphic designers, try removing the serifs from Times New Roman and adding them to Comic Sans.
#2737 Weather Station 'Pour one out for precipitation data integrity,' I say, solemnly upending the glass into the rain gauge.
#2738 Omniknot The Gordian knot is an omniknot tied using every bend in the Ashley Book of Knots, and then for extra security the upper rope at every crossing is connected to the lower with a randomly-chosen hitch.
#2739 Data Quality [exclamation about how cute your cat is] -> [last 4 digits of your cat's chip ID] -> [your cat's full chip ID] -> [a drawing of your cat] -> [photo of your cat] -> [clone of your cat] -> [your actual cat] -> [my better cat]![[exclamation about how cute your cat is] -> [last 4 digits of your cat's chip ID] -> [your cat's full chip ID] -> [a drawing of your cat] -> [photo of your cat] -> [clone of your cat] -> [your actual cat] -> [my better cat]](https://img.comicstation.store/comics/xkcd/2739/0.png)
#2740 Square Packing I also managed to improve the solution for n=1 to s<0.97, and with some upgrades I think I can hit 0.96.
#2741 Wish Interpretation "I wish for everything in the world. All the people, money, trees, etc." "Are you SURE you--" "And I want you to put it in my house."
#2742 Island Storage I always hate dragging around the larger archipelagos, but I appreciate how the Scandinavian peninsula flexes outward to create a snug pocket for Britain and Ireland.
#2743 Hand Dryers I know hand dryers have their problems, but I think for fun we should keep egging Dyson on and see if we can get them to make one where the airflow breaks the speed of sound.
#2744 Fanservice I was eventually kicked out of my architectural engineering program because I wouldn't stop referring to HVAC as "the fandom."
#2745 Obituary Editor As the editor has reportedly defeated Death in a series of games of skill, no further obituaries are expected.
#2746 Launch Window "Confirmed, we have to scrub." "Ugh, okay. I'll get the bucket and sponge."
#2747 Presents for Biologists A lot of these are actually non-venomous, but I can see which species you mistook them for. If you pause the crane for a sec I can give you some ID pointers for next time!
#2748 Radians are Cursed Phil Plait once pointed out that you can calculate the total angular area of the sky this way. If the sky is a sphere with radius 57.3 degrees, then its area is 4*pi*r^2=41,253 square degrees. This makes dimensional analysts SO mad, but you can't argue with results.
#2749 Lymphocytes It's very hard to detect, but recent studies have determined that when plasma B cells are producing antibodies, they go 'pew pew pew'
