I’ve posted it before, but it feels evergreen The two hardest problems in Computer Science are 1. Human communication 2. Getting people in tech to believe that human communication is important

Now I shift my attention toward manifesting a Marianne Vos win

"I think women’s cycling is winning" but straight up says they don't want to commit more money to the race idkkk

I already felt pretty aggrieved at them moving the women's race to the same day as the men's but now I'm really hacked off. What a short-sighted move - a major backwards step 😒

happy paris-roubaix day to all who celebrate !!!!

For the record, I am okay with this on multiple levels. gizmodo.com/star-wars-ma...

As the Artemis II astronauts completed their lunar flyby yesterday, they saw a half dozen "impact flashes" from small space rocks crashing into the moon's surface. The news made scientists literally jump for joy. Follow our full coverage of the mission here: spklr.io/6001EyN07

ok there are worse ways to wake up than by scrolling through the #artemis lunar flyby feed

What a beautiful moment.

Holy wow. Artemis is about to go behind the moon from our POV so that's Earth as it starts to slide behind the moon from the space capsule's POV!

The Artemis II mission seems good because it is. People seem excited by it because they are. It looks like a testament to the value of teamwork because it needs many people working together to succeed, and it’s succeeding. One of the best things about this is how straightforward it is. Authentic.

The Artemis II crew just reported several impact flashes—explosions from hypervelocity impacts of meteoroids with the Moon—during the solar eclipse. We make a big effort to see a handful of these from Earth with telescopes. That astronauts flying by the Moon saw >4 in tens of minutes is AWESOME.

There was much more to the women's Tour of Flanders than Vollering's dominant performance. Here's what we're left wondering. escapecollective.com/five-questio...

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.
