Diacumakos's technique involved incredibly fine glass needles that she made herself by heating glass in her Bunsen burner. These needles were thinner than a human hair!
A few years ago I posted about her on the bird site, and within *moments* @jesswade put up a wikipedia page for her.

Ethan Drogin:
$259.71: That’s how much the “Suits” episode I wrote, “Identity Crisis,” earned last quarter in streaming residuals. All together, NBCUniversal paid the six original “Suits” writers less than $3,000 last quarter to stream our 11 Season 1 episodes on two platforms.
But many artists are certain that what is broken about Hollywood isn’t just compensation. It’s what’s being made and why.
@pluralistic that message was AI generated for sure.
@iuculano perhaps, however the sentence should definitely be televised.

Voyager 2 Is Alive and Well!
For those of you wringing your hands for the last few days over the silence of one of the fabled Voyager spacecraft, launched in 1977 to the outer solar system & beyond, you can chill now.
After finding a faint signal coming from Voyager 2 despite its mis-orientation, #NASA made an attempt to communicate with the spacecraft. And it worked!!
Read on & be happy that we'll be hearing from deep space for some time to come.

People often talk about their “ideal weight”.
I’m not sure what that means, but not much talk, say, of their “ideal competence” or “ideal wealth” or “ideal curiosity”.
