In-reply-to » OH, FUCK ME DEAD! On the way home from today's walk I saw easily 800 fireflies! Yes, over eight hundred! That was absolutely amazing. First time this year and already this many. Crazy! They were just fricking everywhere in the entire forest. I counted to one hundred and then stopped. The darker it got, the more fireflies came out and glowed around. :-) There were spots where in under ten seconds I counted 20 glowworms. Super sick. Soooo beautiful. <3

Heck yeah, I’ve been a firefly taxi again! \o/ One landed on my hiking boot and rode along a few meters. It then took off on its own without me having to help it. I saw easily a thousand glowing individuals tonight, bloody cool. :-)

In-reply-to » China plans to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon + 2 more stories China urges Korea to restrict rare earth exports to U.S.; global coral bleaching spreads due to record ocean heat; China plans a nuclear power plant on the Moon. ⌘ Read more

About the nuclear power plant on the Moon, they are beating us. There was a time we were ahead, but I understand nothing lasts forever. Now, being a world power for only one hundred and twenty some years, and a super power for around seventy sure is a record (as in short-lived). The Roman Empire lasted over 500 years!

View from my window last evening:

Moon, Venus, an airplane in the top left corner, wind parks in the distance.

(This is already too much for a standard camera. The moon is super bright, the rest is not. Guess I should go HDR some day?)

Not spectacular shots, but hey, it’s something.

Also saw the crescent Venus and Saturn’s rings through my scope (you know, the one for bird watching).

In-reply-to » @lyse /Me throws his keyboard off to the side, grabs his camera just in case and runs upstairs screaming "Yeah! Science B_ !"

Two days later Holly Shi_ … I got to see all four at the same time! 😲 Venus and Saturn on one side, Mars a tiny bit bellow the rising Moon on the other side then Jupiter in between but more towards the moon and mars half of the sky. Funny thing is seeing Aldebaran and nearly shitting myself out of excitement thinking it was Uranus 😅🤣

I’m enjoying Wesley Chu’s Tao and Io series. Spies, action, ancient aliens. Some funny parts, some interesting world-building parts, some action-filled parts. I picked up The Fall of Io at random from a library a few weeks ago, and it turned out to be the last in a series of six (technically two series), so after finishing that I read the first and am partway through the second. Usually I try to read series in order, but this way is interesting. One thing I liked about The Fall of Io was that it it followed many points of view with somewhat conflicting interests, some more evil than others, and I felt sympathy for most of them. (I was kind of hoping it would be about Jupiter’s moon Io, but it wasn’t, but I’m satisfied with what I ended up with.) (2/4)

Odysseus sends back its first images of the moon
The Odysseus private moon lander has sent back its first images from the lunar surface.

Reportedly, it is the furthest south any vehicle has successfully landed on the moon and established communication to date.

The uncrewed spacecraft endured an intense landing approach on Friday last week.

It came after a navigation system error meant its flight controllers had to be used on untested work to safe … ⌘ Read more

I never paid a lot of attention to Ben Shapiro before, but what he says is so transparently asinine it boggles the senses. You really have to have a Fox-addled mind to believe that the search for the submersible was completely faked and that the powers-that-be knew the entire time that it had imploded. To believe that a vast conspiracy among hundreds, thousands (?) of people from several countries and spanning several days was orchestrated to lie to the public in order to…..uh, achieve what exactly? “Undermine institutional credibility”? What does that even mean?

This is “the moon landing was faked” levels of conspiracy theory.

** Moon maker **
I recently re-read Peter Naur’s“Programming as theory building”. Afterwards I set out to write my own text editor. The paper posits that it’s really hard, if not impossible, to fully communicate about a program and sort of gestures at the futility of documentation…what spun around inside my head as I read was that our primary programming medium — text files — is silly. Like, some folks would totally 100% s … ⌘ Read more
