Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday
Do it scared, say it even if your voice shakes, just don't give up.
Courage isn’t loud; it’s the act of not giving up.

“…heroism is neither being perfect, nor doing something spectacular. … it’s regular, flawed human beings choosing to put others before themselves, even at great cost, even if no one will ever know, even as they realize the walls might be closing in around them.” open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

You hear sometimes, now that we know the sordid details of the lives of some of our leading figures, that America has no heroes left.

Props to President Biden for pardoning his son. Why stop there? Why not go ahead and grant all federal clemency petitions and pardon everyone facing the death penalty? That’ll really get MAGA folks and give pundits something to talk about. And also it would be a morally decent thing to do.
