Interesting article re: Migration from Birdsite to Masto. Also the first time I've come across the word "nonzero", and I think it may be used incorrectly. I think the speaker means to say "more than zero", but AFAIK "nonzero" can also be a negative number. Am I missing something here? #NonZero #HIgherEd #Education https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2022/12/01/academics-twitter-disperse-wake-musk-takeover

#Random Selection Methodology (RSM).

#NonRandom Human Decisions (NRHD)

Context #science

Both approaches?

#NRHD = #nonzero level of intelligence. But, a nonzero #bias

The #RSM = zero bias. But, zero intelligence.

Both approaches? #context awarding research grants.

But, all research proposals *must* be ethically validated #ethics

#RSM has zero ethical considerations.

Dear #maths and #math people, what is the simple #algorithm to find the last six #nonzero digits of 1000000! (one million #factorial)
