Paleontology or palaeontology is the study of prehistoric life forms on Earth through the examination of plant and animal fossils.[1] This includes the study of body fossils, tracks (ichnites), burrows, cast-off parts, fossilised feces (coprolites), palynomorphs and chemical residues. Because humans have encountered fossils for millennia, paleontology has a long history both before and after becoming formalized as a science. This article records significant discoveries and events related to paleontology that occurred or were published in the year 1834.

gollark: Skynet is actually older than you are.

gollark: Skynet does application-level pings, the websocket ping frames are kind of annoying.

gollark: The issue with the websocket protocol-level ping is that neither JS nor CC can actually see if one was received recently, as far as I can tell.

gollark: Yes, skynet does that, but mostly so it can detect disconnected clients itself and obliterate them rapidly.

gollark: From my experience, nginx and such will kill websocket connections if they're without activity for a bit by default.
