    Kürzester Tag ist nicht gleich frühester Sonnenuntergang
    "
    "Warum fällt der kürzeste Tag des Jahres nicht mit dem frühesten Sonnenuntergang zusammen? Viele kennen die Wintersonnenwende, doch nur wenige wissen, dass der früheste Sonnenuntergang bereits davor stattfindet. .."

  2. And so, here are four functions to demonstrate it. The default resolution of the plotting routine is crude, leading to #Aliasing and so the mesh has to be refined somewhat.

    Here are three #ConicSections and one #Trigonometric functions.

    An #Ellipse
    A #Parabola.
    A #Hyperbola.
    A rotating #Tangent function.

  3. "On Sunday, Trump staged what he believed would be a show of force at Madison Square Garden. He thought that, by packing 20,000 of his people into the media capital of the world, he would demonstrate his power.

    Last night, Kamala Harris brought 75,000 people onto the same spot where Trump launched his insurrection.

    This is the kind of power Trump understands."

  4. "In front of an estimated crowd of 75,000, she helped wipe away the memory of the January 6 insurrection. It was a peaceful, loving crowd—for real, not what Trump described—who listened to Harris reassure them that we know what we have to do next Tuesday."

  5. "In what some are calling the 'ultimate showdown' of crowd comparisons, Vice President Kamala Harris just packed a jaw-dropping 75,000+ supporters into DC’s Ellipse, the same spot where Donald Trump infamously—and repeatedly—claimed to have the 'biggest crowd ever' on January 6.

    Yet, by the numbers, Kamala’s crowd is MUCH BIGGER than Trump’s crowds by over 22,000 people, leaving MAGA devotees feeling intense crowd envy."

  6. Evan Hurst says that with her "magnificent ellipse speech," "Harris re-sanctified the ground Donald Trump desecrated when he used it as the launchpad for the largest terrorist attack against the United States since September 11. ...

    Harris’s speech was sweeping and historic, and it was a powerful visual, with the White House in the background — you know, for anybody having a hard time visualizing a Black woman in that job."

    As the vice president took the stage Tuesday night, her campaign's rapid response director, Ammar Moussa, posted to his account on X, formerly Twitter, that there were "OVER 75,000 people on the #NationalMall to watch Kamala Harris deliver her closing remarks."

    "Here. We. Go," Moussa added.

  8. "more than 75,000 spectators gathered in #WashingtonDC, to hear Vice President #KamalaHarris' closing argument speech at the same site of former President Donald Trump's infamous ... rally that preceded the #Jan6 attack on the US Capitol...

    the #Ellipse was at capacity and some guests were directed to an overflow area...

    around 53,000 people attended Trump's [Jan 6] speech before the attack."

  9. Overflow crowd in the distance at the #Harris #ellipse rally. I wish I could see a better shot to get a feeling for how big it is.

  10. @mastodonmigration @KamalaHarrisWin I think there is a huge overflow crowd back behind the main group too. It looks like the back of a huge screen in the distance. #ellipserally #ellipse #kamalaharris

  11. A week from today the first #Election results will be coming in, but tonight #KamalaHarris plans to double down on her critique of & contempt for #Trump in the very place where he incited the #MAGA insurgents to attack the Capitol on #Jan6, 2021.

    “Donald Trump has spent a decade trying to keep the American people divided & afraid of each other,” #Harris will say of her self-declared “dictator on Day One” rival during her remarks tonight at the #Ellipse in Washington, #DC. “That’s who he is.”
