Objects appear lighter the further they are away due to “Rayleigh Scattering”.

This month, large ancient Hawaiian petroglyphs were exposed along the shoreline on Oahu’s west side. Usually covered by sand, they haven’t been seen for years and are believed to be more than 1,000 years old. Link: https://www.sfgate.com/hawaii/article/hawaii-petroglyphs-uncovered-20780579.php

Why aren’t all public toilets as pretty and clean and goodsmelling like the one at Utrecht Hoog-Catharijne? 😥

I’ll be switching back to nostr:npub1tzh9j2slue5txvp49e8ep63hr46l25rh4wq0wcvpx80zz5w5aguq50l0mg from Fountain.fm. I lament the fact that Overcast doesn’t support V4V yet but it’s just a better player overall. I will check up on Fountain again in the future off course.

Patrick Jane in “the Mentalist” is the only one who gets any real work done. He’s also the only one with a truly private office. Coincidence? I think not 🤔

Went to a Zoo recently. My hate for children is reinvigorated. I would pay a premium for child-free-days.

It was only in college, when I read Douglas Hofstadter’s Gödel, Escher, Bach, that I came to understand cells as recursively self-modifying programs. The language alone was evocative. It suggested that the embryo—DNA making RNA, RNA making protein, protein regulating the transcription of DNA into RNA—was like a small Lisp program, with macros begetting macros begetting macros, the source code containing within it all of the instructions required for life on Earth. Could anything more interesting be imagined? Source: https://jsomers.net/i-should-have-loved-biology/

For the past 6000 odd years or so, we’ve been running this “wetware” that’s copying itself but it doesn’t get any bugfixes or updates. 😥

When will nostr:npub14p3ahlqdfuatzv4hatfn06fhkwv6muw3m2964nnnvsxav34fxlpsx6nygs get #IRC support? I see that #Palaver hasn’t been maintained in a few years now 😥. https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/palaver/id538073623

Has anybody built a phone case with built-in LoRa #meshtastic and BT or USB connection already? Asking for a me 😊

Has anybody already made an Excel plug in that turns a string of text into music notes 🎶 and plays it as well?

Went to see the new https://www.jurassicworld.com movie. It was meh. Clearly the excitement that I felt after seeing the first one 30 ish years ago is gone. Or the story has been told soo many times that the expectations are no longer being met 🤔

How does everyone feel who sold his gold after this news article came out in September 2022 ??

The biggest cypher punk move in history would be when @Tether made themselves obsolete (by building a decentralized stablecoin on stable channels) and closed shop. This off course, will never happen.
