This is one of the good applications of AI.

I really wish our society would invest more into its useful applications instead of going all in on the grifting-and-plagiarism racket.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

lol what the wealthy today don't seem to understand is part of staying wealthy in society is not pissing off the masses.

There's a reason why Carnegie and the Rockefellers poured money into institutions. Gutting institutions and making it harder for the masses to survive is a...choice.

Hanging onto my 12 Mini as long as it keeps working because I want a phone that actually fits in my pocket.
I literally switched from a decade of Android and Pixel phones to iOS JUST for the 13 Mini. I bought it very shortly before it was entirely discontinued because the size is just soooo perfect.

I had an invertebrate zoology professor in undergrad who called chaetognaths “the great white shark of the plankton.”
WOW.. Photographer David Fleetham captured this stunning shot of an arrow worm or chaetognath in the process of devouring a larval fish! From Yap, Micronesia, his website www.davidfleetham.com #wormwednesday

"The strength of WHOI's science is in its people."

It was true in the time of our first director, Henry Bigelow—and it's true today. We wouldn't be leaders in ocean science + engineering without our dedicated + talented staff.
