To be blunt: if you write code for Palantir et al. you are a weapon engineer. You are no better than H&K designing more efficient physical murder machines. And you own every kill your tool makes.
getting tech recruiting emails is a uniquely horrific psychic experience
wanna build completely unregulated digital casinos? plagiarism machines that give children asthma / detailed suicide instructions? the panopticon?? double enron??? a new kind of cancer that only kills orphans?????

I'm a dum dum with fever, ignore. It's not.
Wait, that's actually a hand in the plasma? I thought my mind played tricks on me.
Guess the heat shield works, then.

This might look like an Olympic torch flame, but it’s actually a heat shield design being tested at the Arc Jet Complex at Ames Research Center, where we simulate the extreme temperatures a spacecraft experiences when entering a planetary atmosphere. go.nasa.gov/4aJWDqz

Discord is hoping to do an IPO soon so I assume this is all to do with that

The more interesting thing to me rather than finding myself is to see which parts are visible to me. An option to visualize followed / mutuals would be cool.

Even without the rings, Saturn is spectacular
#PPOD: This very impressive, and little-known, image of a meandering squiggle of high-altitude clouds on Saturn was captured by the Cassini spacecraft on July 18, 2010. It almost looks like one of these fancy latte art designs! Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SSI/CICLOPS / @jpmajor.bsky.social 🧪 🔭

Oh this is fun!
If you took the version of an alien music combo from a 70s animated feature and turned them into live action, you would get these guys.
Like if Fantastic Planet had a bar scene, they would play in the background.

The soft "AI" search for trending topics on Bluesky exemplifies beautifully why "AI" absolutely sucks for searches. It sucks so bad. It's terrible. It's shite. It's the worst idea to use for a search function.

HiPOD: Dune Convergence
The objective of this observation is to capture a junction where two wind regimes converge stacks of dunes. This image can also provide greater context of a nearby study site.

a Foe is a unit use to classify the energy release of supernovae
a Foe equals 10^51 Ergs
an Erg is the amount of work done by a force of one Dyne exerted for a distance of one centimetre
a Dyne is the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimetre per second squared
a Foe equals 10^51 Ergs
