     @SamerKadoura @VoiceofDuum I think that it looks very different on different operating systems but none of them require going back month-by-month. I think in some cases is it just not entirely obvious how to change the year (but it is possible)

     @SamerKadoura @AstroKatie I'm with Samer. Would have taken me an <cough> astronomical number of clicks to get back to my birth year

     @AstroKatie Signed up😀. I just wish there was an easier way to set the birthdate.

     @AstroKatie @SamerKadoura
     Works as you describe in Chrome for Windows. On Android, however, there's no alternative but many hundreds of clicks. Cumulative Trauma Disorder can thankfully be avoided since you didn't make it a mandatory field 😁

     @VoiceofDuum @SamerKadoura did you try tapping the year https://twitter.com/bill14051/status/1690408726681808896?s=46&t=yvnSVf2bbP9SQ1-8zMbtOQ

     @AstroKatie I read (watched, can't remember!) a really compelling piece you did on dark matter ages ago. It would be great to get your take on the wide binary study. Is it as significant as it sounds?

     Something for the newsletter maybe.
