And who are clearly intelligent people of excellent and discriminating taste

So...is SOI over? Is Yuzu done killing us yet? Is it safe to come out without my smelling salts?

Their priorities are elevated and correct. Think of how many cats recognize Yuzu as one of their own.

At SCI 2019 13 of us met for dinner one night and the only people around the table who weren't scientists or academics worked in healthcare and finance. Yuzu attracts intelligent people as fans, for sure.

'people who cheer for me with much anxiety' --> if that's not the very definition of the fanyu experience

Happy 4th Birthday, the Planet!!

I agree with this. I'm going to add that it's far more likely for a technology like this to be adopted at the grassroots levels first. For example, if there's a skating club or regional group of skating clubs that are having a hard time recruiting parent volunteers to get their certification to judge competitions, I could see place like that wanting to try out this tech instead. Especially if they have someone who's a tech junkie on their volunteer committees

Exactly. the devil is in the details. Yuzu's paper is only a proof of concept. There's miles to go yet. But it's the important first step.

....is this what Yuzu meant by 'LMEY'?

At least even Russian media acknowledges the issues with the technique she teaches.

I'm a little shocked that you can freely download it without having a paid subscription to the journal it was published in. Academic journals are usually pretty uptight about that. If I need an article for my work, I can either get an abstract or I have to find someone in the department who has paid through the nose for their subscription who is willing to help me with a download - or someone who has a physical copy of the thing already. We do have some departmental subscriptions but not many because they're costly.

Your mom, fanyu with the best taste!

I somehow can't help feeling that this will prove disastrous. Pairs is by far the most dangerous discipline and we've already seen that safety is not Eteri's first priority with the way she drives her skaters....

helmet. I don't know what the requirements will be at your local ice rink, but here in Canada, helmets are now required during child figure skating lessons to protect against concussion should the child take a fall. No idea about whether boys need special support when starting out. I would think not. As for the little girl, in my experience most figure skating clubs have some kind of recommended dress code, but take a look at the practice videos of Ladies' singles. Lots of them wearing dark leggings, or lightweight shorts over their tights, so it shouldn't be an issue for your niece to be more covered up. Beginner skaters will rarely be in the kinds of positions that challenge modesty anyways.

Never thought I'd see the day. Maybe I should go buy a lotto ticket, just in case all the laws of probability are suddenly failing.

H&E --> History & Entertainment. I'm getting it mixed up with the A&E TV channel Ten To Chi To is much better, although my anime-loving self keeps wanting to shorten it to Tenchi after Tenchi Muyo.

Roman's recap of WTT. It actually sounds like there was a lot of effort put into keeping the skaters and the event safe.

Same! the parade was the very first time I joined a livestream for Yuzu specifically, instead of watching something like the Olympics.

So, am I the only one who is wondering if Yuzu feels he has unfinished business with LGC? As I recall, he never did go clean in competition with it. Maybe he's thinking he'll get that settled this time?

The Toronto Star's take. I think it's safe to say they don't approve: https://twitter.com/StarSports/status/1385020636117012481?s=20 Edited to add: I didn't realize the article was paywalled, sorry!

I feel like there should be a new one with the title ' blurry fancams of Yuzu taken with potato cellphones at competitions' --> I'd so win.

Eesh. Beyond the obvious of Eric being clueless , I really wonder who the hell is running the CBC Olympics twitter, that they thought this was the right way to go about reporting the story. Smacks of Jerry Springer-style infotainment.

I think she's trying really hard not to sound that way but this obviously is a painful disappointment for her. I keep thinking of Charlie Bilodeau who dumped two partners in a row without any warning and left them high and dry...and the whole John Coughlin thing...and of course Vanessa's former partner...and a myriad of other stories and rumours I've heard over the years, from all countries, and , well, it really seems like pairs guys are just a toxic breed of human, like, what gives?
