a little good news

Minnesota legalized THC (but only in edibles, and only 5mg or less per dose), thanks to Republicans not actually reading the laws they approve. We always thought they moved in lockstep without knowing what they were actually doing, but this oversight cements the impression. The bill's author and the DFL party are happy to take credit for essentially legalizing marijuana in the state. The law went into effect on Friday, and there were lines at local stores. The customers were predominantly white, which begs an obvious question: what about the darker-skinned people currently in jail for something now legal?
Quantum sensors are here. I'm not keen on the military applications, but Defense One publishes a good explanation of potential uses.
