Yah, I learned in this thread there is more than one kind of “doodle”.

Cool so it’s not just my area. Others here gave good reasons for them to be popular, unless you have any other thoughts?

My fave parts (edited for brevity):
The adult mites are 0.3–0.4 mm (3⁄256–1⁄64 in) long. Each has a semitransparent, elongated body that consists of two fused parts. Eight short, segmented legs are attached to the first body segment. The body is covered with scales for anchoring itself in the hair follicle, and the mite has pin-like mouthparts for eating skin cells and oils that accumulate in the hair follicles.
… and …
The mites are transferred between hosts through contact with hair, eyebrows, and the sebaceous glands of the face.
Ohhh good.
Then the singer shouts “shut the hell up!!” instead. I dig it.
Yes! I’m the main character vibes. :(
And I will never forgive for them for that.
How about this?
The Cathedral and the Bazaar : Musings on Linux and Open Source by an Accidental Revolutionary by Eric Raymond,
It’s from 1997 but addresses some of what you mentioned. Things have changed a lot since it was written though, so just keep that in mind.
At first I thought the OP was asking how they could fertilize the eggs, lol
This is not about tech bros but …
A friend was just telling me he’s seen more than one TikTok video extolling the idea that you can deposit a bogus 10,000 check to your own account, then pull that money as cash from an ATM and boom! Free 10,000.
He said, “Gen Z just invented check kiting”.
No, not yet, but they should!
If anyone ever deserved a tribute song by They Might Be Giants, it’s this lady.
Thanks!
Verticals are industries. I.e, “services” or “wholesale” are verticals.
Maybe add “from the South” to the end of the question?
Good joke tho’,
Lol, I think that’s only in the cartoon, eh.

The fact is that the platypus’s digestive tract does include a small expanded pouch-like section where one would normally expect a stomach to be located. The platypus’s stomach doesn’t secrete digestive acids or enzymes (Harrop and Hume 1980; Ordoñez et al. 2008), but does produce a mucus-rich fluid to assist nutrient absorption in the intestines (Krause 1971). Following on from the discussion of grinding pads above, it would seem that a platypus masticates food so thoroughly in its mouth that little additional processing is required before food reaches the intestines. Also, because a platypus consumes numerous small prey items over a period of many hours, its stomach doesn’t need to have a large holding capacity to accommodate infrequent large meals.
Sooo, “gullet”?
I went down this rathole.
They first grind up the bugs they eat in their mouths, then they have a chamber with bacteria which further reduce their food, then their intestines finish the job.
ETA, since you all are such curious cats:

Not any more. I destroyed it on advice from the internet.
