I've been collecting reports from Mastodon instance operators as they cope with the #TwitterMigration: https://dltj.org/article/mastodon-instance-reports
Starting with reports from @chad (Mastodon Canada), @nova (Hachyderm), and @aurynn (Cloud Island, New Zealand).
Learning lots. If you know of other reports, please @-tag me and I'll add them to the list.
Dust Rings in the Wolf-Rayet 140 System
The two stars in Wolf-Rayet 140 produce shells of dust every eight years that look like rings, as seen in this image from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. Each ring was created when the stars came close together and their stellar winds collided.

""Can you show me?" is a very effective way of closing down a debate. Not a lot of people in the "show, don't tell" camp." – @jasongorman
I believe that @kentbeck had a rule that no design debate should last more than 15 minutes without doing an experiment on the computer.

Science mastodon: As we (re)build our community, what would you most like to see more of here? #neuroscience #psychology @cogneurophys
If your Mastodon feed feels empty, it's because you aren't following enough people. Unlike on other social media sites, there isn't an algorithm choosing content for you to see, you need to choose to see content for yourself. A good way to get started is to follow some hashtags for topics you find interesting, then follow some of the people posting there that you find interesting. You'll have a lively and engaging feed in no time!
If you listen to the news, you could be forgiven for thinking that everything is shit.
It’s not.
One example, Humpback Whale numbers are growing massively.
