Telling your suitcase there's no more vacations this year can be tough. Emotional baggage is the worst

I’m not sure who made this t-shirt but I think I need to have it.

Edit: It would seem to be @heydon (https://webbed-briefs.teemill.com/product/you-would-not/)

This is the most delightfully nerdy thing I've ever seen:

And here is a listing of sky events in the *Southern* hemisphere in 2025: https://astroblogger.blogspot.com/2025/01/coming-events-year-of-southern.html

What the article doesn't mention is that #MichaelJFox and his foundation have raised over $2B for #Parkinson's research, MORE than ALL government investment in a cure.

GOOD NEWS there is a Borland C color scheme for VS Code

The carbon in your body formed through fusion in the hearts of stars and was then thrown out into the cosmos to seed stellar nebulae with the elements for life. Now, researchers are discovering just how long a journey that carbon has gone on, possibly circling the galaxy a few times before returning to our spot in the cosmos. They tracked giant conveyor belts that surround galaxies, pushing material out into space and then drawing it back into the galactic interior.

me neither, solaris

It’s improbable that I fold another model this year, so here’s my #bestnine2024. #origami

Today is the day. Welcome to THE charger!

USB-C is officially the common standard for charging electronic devices in the EU.

This means:

🔌The same charger for all new phones, tablets and cameras
⚡ Harmonised fast-charging technology
🔄 Reduced e-waste
🛑 No more “Sorry, I don’t have the right cable”

One charger to rule them all.

I'm sorry... This is wrong on so many levels.

@jonny Yes! Incredible!!

Here's a video from the paper.. Ants rock!

Kim Kyung-Hoon took this photo of a press conference by the CEOs of Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi, and accidentally created the perfect album cover.

The word "so" should operate on the same number of "o"s rule as the word "to".

Like, if something can be too cute it should also be soo cute.

This will make absolutely no one's life easier but it just feels right and it should be the way it is and I refuse to be convinced otherwise.

What I’m taking from this is that software engineers spend most of our time on engineering software, and writing code is (as expected) a relatively small portion of that work.

Imagine this for other engineering disciplines. “Wow structural engineers seem to spend most of their time on meetings and CAD and relatively little time physically building bridges with their hands! This is something AI can and should fix. I am very smart”

A twenty-five years old #curl bug

The logic of IP law is simple: 'It may be utter nonsense, but if it meets the relevant legal criteria, it's your nonsense and yours alone to commercially cherish'.
