So much fun building the Space Nursery!

As an adult it is now insane to me that teenagers are allowed to operate motor vehicles. www.cdc.gov/nchs/product...

At one point her starts to resemble Jeff Goldblum. Now let's try this with vibe coding 🫠

I made a thing! Which makes it more real: registering an LLC or putting it on the internets? prodable.org/portfolio#li...

Guys guess what. Went to Mars today, turns out Terraforming works.

Really cool to connect with the community today!

Canada is a nation of the most delightful, kind, polite people I have ever met. Until you cross that line. Then it's beer bottle throwing and hockey stick waving. And if it gets to that point..... Ohh boy are you in trouble. Look what you did now: www.cnn.com/2025/03/04/w...

This. This is why when people ask me what I do, I tell them I work with technology related to distributed systems and cryptography.

Yes

A whole new level.

Can you handle the cute?

Probably my favorite episode of darknet diaries yet. I knew about tornadocash sanctions- but my favorite new fact was that after the Bitcoin ETF was listed on NYSE, someone sent ETH from tornado cash to that wallet! Meaning that it violated these inane laws. open.spotify.com/episode/7E7C...

For any other Tejans who are stocking up on firewood ready for another grid failure this week, dashboard is pretty neat. www.ercot.com/gridmktinfo/.... The ERCOT is energy grid in Texas has chosen to be cut off from the rest of the country, because, well, Texas. Can't secede from the union, why not?

Posting to read later. Pretty cool how this platform has open source build your own content moderation.

Torn on the thought of lab-grown or 'cultivated' meat. The reduction of waste and resources and animal suffering is appealing. However, we are also facing an obesity epidemic due to an abundance of over-processed food. Our Taste for Flesh Has Exhausted the Earth www.nytimes.com/2024/09/21/c...

Dweb Camp Showers are the best part

Almost a decade ago, when traveling to different countries around the world, I noticed something that made me proud to be an American. In countries in different corners of the world, people had, on display, an American president posted on their wall.

Apparently we haven't evolved as much as we thought @robin.berjon.com

Was 🤩 to watch how FDroid can distributed apps using IPFS in the event of internet shutdown and throttling. Would you have the tools you need to connect on a p2p network were it suddenly needed? FDroid has got you covered.

We're in this phase. 🦖

Introducing Grace (after Hopper) new lil sis to Linus (after Torvalds).

Get out and VOTE TX women. Medical care for abortion is illegal and fertility care is next! 3 TX Supreme Court seats are on the ballot! Voter's guide: lwvtx.clubexpress.com/voters-guide... Map of polling places: elections.traviscountytx.gov/current-elec...

On my way to open water advanced! Dives sites are beautiful but coral bleaching due to record high ocean temps is tragic.

Just me and my normal-fingered American children, singing some passages of the BOBV PASCOLY in a scene that has been erased from popular culture by the liberal elite

It's Linus' favorite time of year again

Good Fortune Burger in Toronto renamed their menu items office supplies so customers could expense them. HEROES.

CURL 8.4.0 released a couple days ago with IPFS URI support! A project that took well over 500 days from start to finish 😁 @ipfs.tech #ipfs #curl blog.ipfs.tech/ipfs-uri-sup...

Holy Guacamole what an amazing idea. Vermont utility is installing batteries in customers' homes which is a cheaper way to make the grid more resilient than installing more power lines. Next step - collect and store close to those batteries. www.nytimes.com/2023/10/09/b...

I've always discouraged Californians from moving to Texas, but this takes the argument to a whole new level. I may need to leave myself: www.nbcdfw.com/news/politic...

If you ask me, I will unequivocally say that I don't like country music. However, I've recently been obsessed with Zach Bryan. His voice has a haunting beauty reminiscent of Kurt Cobain and his songs evoke a feeling of nostalgic amerincana: open.spotify.com/track/53zCCo...

The dolphins are the second most intelligent species on the planet earth, only surpassed by micr, although many outside observers don't know about the mice. They long ago knew of Earth's planned destruction and tried to communicate this to humans who misinterpreted it.

Found this great talk today by @jay.bsky.team that answered all the Way I had about the design & considerations when they created the @ protocol https://youtube.com/watch?v=jGbBZbl-V8Y&feature=share8

Nudibranch is nude, but not a branch. Also is better than any alien creature I could imagine. Coral: I has poison Nudibranch: I absorbed. Now I has poison. Try me.

DWeb Camp was the ultimate nerd summer camp experience - a great place to meet amaze people like @col.bsky.social . I also got to play with a lot of cool tools like Sutty's decentralistzed publishing tech : https://medium.com/@lindsay_walker/setting-up-a-website-on-the-distributed-web-7eae22594303

Today, I can proudly say that I am once again a contributor to one of my favorite projects, Milorganite. Proud to be back adding to this stack. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milorganite

It's true. Never made my students NOT use a calc, for the record.

There a *lots* of reasons that I hate the politics of the state I live in, but am able to stay in Austin because of the ability that the local government has. A new law in the works would remove any autonomy local governments have. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/us/texas-heat-water-breaks.html

I think I just got heatstroke mowing my lawn at 8am. Meanwhile, Canada is engulfed in flames and the midwest is full of smoke.

Sundays are so much more fun without the scaries. Let's make more Monday holidays.

Husband and dog. Stoically being tortured. Halloween style

When I was a wee one, the parents just put me in a cooler and tossed chicken wing scraps my way. It's how I learned my feral ways.

If you search for "fsquirt" on Windows 10, it's still a Bluetooth command for transferring files.
