Watch out! This frog can bite. Meet the giant African bullfrog (Pyxicephalus adspersus). Weighing more than 2 lbs (0.9 kg), this hefty amphibian munches on other frogs, small birds, and even small mammals. It uses its strong jaw and large tooth-like odontodes to bite and hold on to prey. Much of its time is spent in a burrow underground; when dry season comes, it hibernates, staying dormant for months by bringing its bodily functions to a near-complete stop.

During this time, it also creates a cocoon-like covering over its body by shedding multiple layers of skin. Upon heavy rain, it will emerge from its burrow to breed. Photo: Jacob Dirsuwei, CC BY-NC 4.0, iNaturalist

나는 경기도나 지방 광역시 정도면 만족하는데…… 서울에 원전 건설이 시급하다.
내한 공연이 맨날 있는 것도 아니니 그때만 KTX 타 주면 되고.

Poll: In a dramatic shift, Americans no longer see four-year college degrees as worth the cost

The latest NBC News poll shows two-thirds of registered voters down on the value proposition of a degree. A majority said degrees were worth the cost a dozen years ago.

The HTTP Query Method

Link: ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf
Discussion: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

The HTTP QUERY Method

This specification defines the QUERY method for HTTP. A QUERY requests that the request target process the enclosed content in a safe and idempotent manner and then respond with the result of that processing. This is similar to POST requests but can be automatically repeated or restarted without concern for partial state changes.

Astronaut Don Pettit took this photo from space in January 2025, as the Sun began to rise over a cloudy Pacific Ocean. This long-exposure image shows off the wide band of the Milky Way, our home galaxy, above the aurora and airglow that shine closer to Earth's horizon.

Image Description Stars fill this image taken from orbit, with Earth orbiting below. The bright center of the Milky Way stretches downward from top-center of this image, with other white stars scattered throughout. The bottom third of the image is filled by the dark-greenish Earth, somewhat out of focus, with white and purple bands covering its arcing horizon. Credit: NASA/Don Pettit
