The U.S. has had a central role in ensuring the accuracy of the world’s long-term measurements of carbon in the atmosphere. Amid President Trump’s threats to climate research, global scientists are looking for alternatives.

I wrote a little comic about #opensource hardware and serviceberry foraging! I'll post all the panels here, but you can also read the whole thing on @archive.org : dinalab.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?...

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker. And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows. No more.

Stressed-out engineer Dave Niewinski built an NVIDIA Jetson-powered robotic canoe to paddle for him while he kicks back and relaxes.

I did the numbers for the Hyundai Kona gas and electric a while back, and he's being very, very generous on the ethanol number. Like still generous even after counting for the fact that not all the corn goes into ethanol, and not counting energy cost of inputs. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Debian Linux was officially founded by Ian Murdock on August 16, 1993. That's 32 years of stable, free, and opensource computing. From a single kernel, it has grown to parent some of the most popular OSes in the world. Happy 32nd birthday to the beloved mother of all distros! 🥰 🍰

WASP OR MOTH!? 🐝🤯 One of the most incredible mimics in the world, this Tiger Moth (Orcynia calcarata) looks so much like a wasp I was almost nervous holding it! 😳 There are so many tiger moths mimicking wasps in the Amazon it’s crazy! 😯🌳 How amazing is nature! 💛🖤

They're so cute!
