Yes. Almost the same size as Earth.
Though Earth is more massive than Venus, Mars and Mercury put together.

Claire Voisin won this yearâs Crafoord Prize in Mathematics. An interview with her can be found in Nature (not sure of paywalled or not):
Read it and have fun. She could really be one of us.
"I donât care what people think about me"
"I like to work alone and to ask my own questions"
Etc.

@jinpa for context, the painting is "Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks" by Ilya Repin. It depicts the making of the legendary letter, well worth this thread, from Zaporozhian Cossacks to Sultan Mehmed IV in response to his demand of surrender.
Zaporozhians â to the Turkish Sultan:
You Turkish Satan, brother and comrade of the damned devil and secretary to Lucifer himself! What the hell kind of knight are you? The devil shits and you and your army swallow it. You aren't fit to have the sons of Christians under you; we aren't afraid of your army, and we'll fight you on land and sea.You Babylonian busboy, Macedonian mechanic, Jerusalem beerbrewer, Alexandrian goatskinner, swineherd of Upper and Lower Egypt, Armenian pig, Tatar goat, Kamenets hangman, Podolian thief, grandson of the Evil Serpent himself, and buffoon of all the world and the netherworld, fool of our God, swine's snout, mare's asshole, butcher's dog, unbaptized brow, may the devil steam your ass!
That's how the cossacks answer you, you nasty glob of spit! You're unfit to rule true Christians. We don't know the date because we don't have a calendar, the moon is in the sky, and the year is in a book, and the day is the same with us as with you, so go kiss our butt!

@Gustav WTDWTF writes a letter to IT:
Denizens of WTDWTF â to the IT Middle-Manager:
You Satan, brother and comrade of the damned devil and secretary to Lucifer himself! What the hell kind of manager are you? The devil shits and you and your gaggle of IT drones swallow it. You aren't fit to have Windows 3.11 machines under you; we aren't afraid of your group policies, and we'll change your default enforced copmany wallpapers on Linux and Windows.You Microsofty busboy, Appley mechanic, IBM beerbrewer, Metaman goatskinner, swineherd of Upper and Lower Alphabet, RedHatish pig, Amazonian goat, Oracle-y hangman, Tencent thief, grandson of the Evil Serpent himself, and buffoon of all the world and the netherworld, fool of Huang, swine's snout, mare's asshole, butcher's dog, unbaptized brow, may the devil steam your ass!
That's how the WTDWTFians answer you, you nasty glob of spit! You're unfit to administer true boxen. We don't know the date because we don't use Outlook, the moon is in the sky, and the year is in a book, and the day is the same with us as with you, so go kiss our butt!

I really wasn't scared of ChatGPT, but this site seems to make all of us redundant. All the jokes have already been told.

@topspin I donât think itâs ChatGPT, I think itâs someone who is firmly One Of Us doing his own thing.
ChatGPT isnât as funny as what heâs written there, and the brevity smells like prudent application of rather than editing down ChatGPT. And itâs a little too on the nose otherwise - even if he is writing the body copy with ChatGPT (which I donât think), heâs still feeding it the right material that is One Of Us territory.

Yeah, but he single-handedly outperforms us.

If the dates are to be believed on the stories, he did nothing in the last year, 4 in 2023, nothing in 2022, 65 in 2021, 61 in 2020 and given the timeliness of certain super-specific entries I am inclined to believe that.
It looks like he tried to make a go of monetising it in 2021 as per https://www.theolognion.com/p/the-olognion-is-back and the recent move to Substack is part of the plan to maybe do something with it going forward.
But I wouldnât say he outperformed us. Itâs easy when you have 3 full years of time in which to have beaten our
