America is the immigrant.
America is the protestor.
America is the huddled masses yearning to be free.

Alex Pretti is America.
Renee Good is America.
Liam Ramos is America.

In this moment of crisis, America needs patriots now more than ever.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.

I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

I'm super excited to announce my latest project! 📢

I'm hoping to address this more, but there are contractual issues at play, so I'll say this: If you want to listen to Tides of History, or you have a backlog to get through, you should probably do it now. We'll be making episodes through April, but I can't speak to their availability.

🛰️🛰️ The twins are talking!

We have successfully established contact with both ESCAPADE spacecraft, 💙 Blue and 💛 Gold, following launch on Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket today.

We're on our way to Mars to enable NASA and UC Berkeley Space Sciences Lab to study the Martian magnetosphere!

Another species no longer on the global Endangered list:
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae).

A few decades after a Star Trek movie where the central conflict was the total extinction of the humpback, their numbers are rising fast enough to put them at "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List.

Tucked in and ready for flight ✅

Our two spacecraft for NASA & UC Berkeley's Space Sciences Laboratory's ESCAPADE mission have been successfully encapsulated into the rocket fairing. This is the last time they'll be seen on Earth before their mission to Mars.

Next stop: The launch pad. 🚀

🎢 Understanding VecDeque in #rustlang

We've looked at Vec and HashMap in previous threads, but what about queue usecases?

Let's build a waitlist functionality for our university database and figure out how to use VecDeque

This video has been doing the rounds recently, so here's the full resolution clip from the documentary "Doroga v Kosmos. Energia Buran: Polet v Budushcheye"

The same rock before and after lapidary polishing. It's held in a human hand in both instances. On the left, a plain looking white limestone lump, roughly triangular. It has a few pits. On the right, a polished and shiny lump of coral in very roughly hexagonal pattern, a darker grey-brown, with lighter divisions and radiating pattern in each cell.

In parts of Michigan, you can pick up a fairly ordinary chunk of limestone & with some polishing, reveal a coral formation that was laid down when this area was a tropical sea in the Devonian, 350 MYA.

These are Petoskey stones, the state stone of Michigan.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.

🎓 State Machines in #rustlang

Ever wondered how to model something that changes over time like a student’s journey from an applicant to a graduate safely in Rust? How do you stop a student from graduating before they even apply?

Let’s explore how to model state machines 🧵👇

A photo of a digital watch with a tuning knob on the front and earbud headphones plugged into the side. Next to it is the wristwatch with the back removed, revealing the batteries inside, along with tiny surface-mount components and a small black integrated circuit.

In 1983, Philips produced the first FM radio receiver on a chip, leading to products such as the FM radio wristwatch. Let's look at the tiny silicon die inside this chip and see how it works. 1/N

@mikeduncan.bsky.social Just listened to the Q and A. Loved hearing your favorite character is Garak. Have you read/listened to A Stitch in Time? Also, are the Battle of the Line references in the Martian Revolution a reference to B5?

Black and white photo of a giant bellows camera about 8 feet tall. A man is standing in front of the lens which is the size of his torso. Caption: "A copy camera of the type useful in making high-precision photographic masks."

In the 1960s, this absurdly large camera was used to make masks for integrated circuits. The layers of the integrated circuit were drawn at large scale and then optically shrunk to make the glass masks that were used in manufacturing.

An overlooked advantage of the metric system is that it's only 37° outside.

It's weird they mention there is no commonality between the COPV's on Starship and Falcon. Why did they not use the proven design from Falcon? Are starships COPV's made in a different factory with a clean sheet design?

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

Food systems are the #2 contributor to climate change, the #1 driver of deforestation, the #1 driver of biodiversity loss on land, and the #1 user of freshwater.

(It follows that food systems contain many solutions to these problems.)
