> After FTX declared bankruptcy, the entire FTX.us domain was redirected to a page providing information on the bankruptcy proceedings.

> NFTs that had been minted on the FTX platform relied on metadata from an API at that domain, meaning that the NFTs are now pointing to broken links. Owners of these NFTs can still see that the NFT exists, but images no longer work—even when viewing the NFTs in their own wallets, or when listing them for sale on other platforms.

Like I said, the door is very simple. I'm just trying to remember TP and how to use stuff. Here's a screen cap (love the borland colors!)

@k i asked it to write a linkedin profile for a dog walker looking to be a heart surgeon, and it shit this out:

I am a highly motivated and experienced dog walker who is looking to take on a new challenge as a part-time heart surgeon. I have spent many years working with dogs, and have developed a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, attention to detail, and clear communication, skills that I believe would be valuable in a surgical setting.

In addition to my work as a dog walker, I have also completed several courses in human anatomy and physiology. I am passionate about medicine and am eager to learn more about the field of heart surgery. I am confident that my combination of hands-on experience and theoretical knowledge would make me an asset to any surgical team.

I am seeking a part-time position as a heart surgeon, where I can continue to develop my skills and make a positive impact on patients' lives. If you are looking for a dedicated and compassionate team member, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to your organization.

And he's been deposed now.

Local newspapers report the Coup has failed and Vice President Dina Boluarte will be sworn in as President.

Did you know that when the tops of trees grow enough to touch over a street or sidewalk, that’s often nick-named a “kissing canopy?” It creates a beautiful, comfortable & cool street condition, but it ONLY happens when the right design decisions are made. Trees need to be prioritized, not thought about last. #StreetsAreBetterWithTrees #trees #cities #urbanism #KissingCanopies

How is 2022 already almost over?

want steel to build a particle detector? you have to source low-background steel—manufactured before contamination from mid-20th century nuclear testing. want to build a text or image generator AI? you’ll have to source low-background training data—collected before 2022.

Ok, that one made me laugh. And cry a bit.

What's your favorite piece of hardware on your workbench?

A trusty soldering iron? An oscilloscope that always gets you out of trouble?

Sound off below!

This one makes me laugh every year… because it is so very true.

dots = [ ];

for (i = 0; i < NUM_DOTS; i++) {
theta = rand() * 2*PI;
phi = acos((rand() * 2) - 1);

/* create [x,y,z] dot coords */
x = RADIUS * sin(phi) * cos(theta);
y = RADIUS * sin(phi) * sin(theta);
z = (RADIUS * cos(phi)) + CENTER_Z;

dots.push({x, y, z});
}

Interesting stuff!! 👀

"Back-to-back #meetings are messing our brains.

Here's some cool #research from #microsoft

Microsoft’s Human Factors Lab measured the #brain activity of 14 individuals.

For those *with breaks* b/w meetings:
- Their brains were steady and experienced "coolness."

For those *without breaks* b/w meetings
- Their stress increased with time, suggesting a "buildup of stress."

It's almost 2023. Either we need to fix meetings or kill them."

My first posting on mastodon but as I have no followers nobody is likely to see it.
I am a pencil artist based in the West Midlands and this is one I did recently just for a bit of fun and called it Emmy Emu..
