The view from the front of our bus on the West Coast of Ireland. Quiz question: which 3D renderer am I thinking of?

@brooklynmarie Pasadena, San Marino and Beverly Hills have been targeted as well. So disgusting. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-10-06/antisemitic-fliers-los-angeles-yom-kippur-jewish-holiday

Facebook reportedly turned over chat messages between mother and daughter, leading to charges of abortion-related felonies. You all think you'll be able to just go to another state or Canada, but don't be so sure. Your phone knows everything, and tech will snitch.

This has gotten weirdly popular. If you're interested in more science takes by me, I have a new book on the science/politics/ethics of space settlement: http://www.acityonmars.com/

The number of new Mastodon users has now slowed to a trickle again - but the number of active users keeps hitting new all-time-highs. IMO this is way more important.

Thank you for being here

@mcnees Wheeler had wonderful bespoke postcards that he used to acknowledge receipt of articles.

Oh my god, the #Dutch #government has launched a mastodon server! Welcome to the fediverse!

I’m clearly a master of SEO.

When I google for “cold dark place filled with sadness and despair” right now (with the quotes), google gives me exactly one result - my Linux kernel github repository.

I will call my new hobby “Reverse Emo Googlewhacking”.

You’re welcome.

A new study shows that multiple rapid antigen tests are needed to reliably detect COVID-19.

During the first week of infection, a single test has 82.5% sensitivity in symptomatic cases and only 34.4% in asymptomatic cases, compared to a PCR test. 🧵

11/27 chapters of the Python version of "Software Design by Example" now meet basic acceptance criteria. 16 more chapters and I'll post the whole thing so that people can kick its tires.

However, the term “black hole" appeared in print well before that.

Journalist and science writer Ann E. Ewing reported on "Black Holes in Space" in January of 1964, after attending an AAAS meeting in Cleveland. She did not attribute the term to anyone in particular.

Physicist Hong-Yee Chiu claimed that Robert Dicke used the term “black hole” as early as 1960 or 1961. But as far as documented use in print, Ann Ewing in 1964 is the earliest example I know of.

Physicist John Archibald Wheeler was born #OTD in 1911.

A titan of 20th century science, Wheeler introduced the S-Matrix; developed the first general theory of fission with Neils Bohr; coined many terms (”worm hole” and “it from bit”) and popularized others (“black hole”); and trained Feynman, Everett, Thorne, and a host of others.

Who wants a blogpost about what a root of trust actually is and why almost all existing implementations don't actually provide that trust
