Franco Nori (University of Michigan) - Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics (textbook): Introduction
Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics.

Apple - Human Interface Guidelines: Terminology
Every word in your app is part of a conversation with your users. Strive for an informal, friendly tone. An informal, approachable style echoes the way you speak with people over lunch. Use contractions occasionally, and "you" and "your" to address the user directly.

Apple - Human Interface Guidelines: Loading
Users don't always need to know precisely how long a task will take, but it's important to give an estimate. At minimum, show an activity spinner that denotes something is happening. Ideally, display an explicit progress indicator and supplementary descriptive text.

unknown - Serbo-Croatian Phonology: pitch accent (Wikipedia)
New Shtokavian dialects (which form the basis of standard language) allow two tones on stressed syllables and have distinctive vowel length and so distinguish four combinations, called pitch accent: short falling, short rising, long falling, and long rising. Most speakers from Serbia and Croatia do not distinguish between short rising and short falling tones.

James Munkres - Linear graphs
Linear graphs are used in mathematics to model many real-life phenomena. A finite linear graph G is a Hausdorff space that is written as the union of finitely many arcs, each pair of which intersect in at most a common end point. The arcs are called the edges of the graph, and the end points of the arcs are called the vertices of the graph.

James Munkres - Connected Spaces: Definition
Let X be a topological space. A separation of X is a pair U, V of disjoint nonempty open subsets of X whose union is X. The space X is said to be connected if there does not exist a separation of X.

The Onion - Nation’s Overthinkers Convene To Determine What That’s Supposed To Mean
Following what they deemed to be a peculiar interaction with a number of possible implications, the nation's top overthinkers gathered for an intensive three-day symposium this week to determine what that's supposed to mean.

Ron Swanson - Parks and Recreation (TV Show) - We still never talk sometimes
The less I know about other people's affairs, the happier I am. I'm not interested in caring about people. I once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes.

u/RN118532 - Answer to r/AskReddit: What is your weirdest dream/nightmare? (Adapted for Keyhero)
I remember a dream in which I infiltrated a villain meeting. It was in the style of My Hero Academia, so subtitles appeared each time a character was introduced summarizing their powers. When it was time, an old woman, holding a toilet under her arm entered the room. Her subtitle: "Toilet Queen: She Has A Toilet." For some reason the other villains, who had long descriptions of their powers, were terrified of her. Her power was that she had a toilet and everyone freaked out.

the laundromat manager - Yeet (definition in Urban Dictionary, adapted for Keyhero)
To yeet is to give your full power and soul to an action you're doing. While many believe yeet to be a fairly new concept, it has been around for centuries. Think back to the berserker warriors. They would be so immersed in pushing all their power into their attack that they wouldn't even register pain, or go into shock. They were true yeeters. A more modern example is the common use of warp speed in science fiction. It's an interstellar yeet. Yeet is a very useful word indeed.

Wikipedia - Mozart and Scatology
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart displayed scatological humor in his letters and a few recreational compositions. This material has long been a puzzle for Mozart scholarship. One view held by scholars deals with the scatology by seeking an understanding of the role of it in Mozart's family, his society and his times, while another view holds that such humor was the result of an "impressive list" of psychiatric conditions from which Mozart is claimed to have suffered.
