Self-reporting data is always corrupt.
Ask a thousand people to ‘rate their pain out of ten’ when experiencing similar levels of pain (injury); and you’ll get ten thousand different answers.

Reply to TIL that the dogs in competitive agility don’t rehearse the course ahead of time. The courses are randomized at each competition, and the trainers (without their dogs) only see the layout beforehand on the same day. When the dog runs the course they are literally seeing it for the first time. by Pyraunus
The dog likely wouldn’t ‘learn’ anything from pre running it anyway. The point of the exercise is to listen to direct commands of their keeper.
It doesn’t understand ‘ooh I need to memorise this course’. It doesn’t have that function. They stare at their keeper and follow orders.

Reply to TIL that passenger jet engines produce most of their thrust from fan at the front, not from the jet exhaust, and that this is called a high-bypass engine. by Rilot
Yes… turbine jet engines and jet engines aren’t the same. Hence turbine… it’s really a disservice that the general population call passenger aircraft ‘jet engines’ because those in the industry don’t.
I’m sure every profession has this annoying situation where public knowledge doesn’t align with actual industry terminology.

Reply to TIL your computer keyboard is 20,589 times dirtier than a toilet seat. The average office keyboard has 3,543,000 colony-forming units (CFU) of bacteria per square inch while your average toilet seat only has 172 CFU per square inch by SappyGilmore
I hate these stupid ‘factoids’.
Yeah, a toilet seat, a twenty dollar note, a phone, a door knob. Whatever.
It’s not the AMOUNT of bacteria that matters; it’s the type. Shithead.
