Last RustWeek, jyn guided ~15 stakeholders through ~2h of *intense* technical discussion until we emerged with a workable solution for cross-crate rustdoc JSON.

We've now made more progress in 6 months than in the prior 3 years.

This is just one of many such cases in jyn's portfolio.

some icons are very similar to their original designs, and some really aren't. i tried to keep them all having a similar colour palette to keep them quickly recognizable, but played with the silhouette because apple making everything a ~rounded square~ sucks ass actually

If I get in quickly enough I'd like to buy two more for colleagues. Mine from an earlier batch lives on my desk and gets used daily (it is so helpful for visualising local rotations).

So I feel like it should be obvious why naming a public software release after a raw material is a bad idea on a number of levels... "Today, CISA, in partnership with Sandia National Laboratories, announced the public availability of Thorium."

Why do treehoppers look so weird?! Our latest paper, out this week in @pnas.org, suggests a perhaps unexpected reason - static electricity ⚡ We show that treehoppers can detect the electrostatic cues of predators and that their crazy shapes may boost their electrosensitivity! doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

I see 40-50 kids everyday with lunches in their hands

cause our library provided them for free all summer.
We had out snack bags to everyone of all ages, all year.

People in this county are less hungry because of the public library
Because everyone deserves a shot 🎯

Any tips on boosting coding confidence? Any place that is a good practice zone? I'm scared of just crying in the coding interview because of all the pressure of needing this job but feeling like I don't know enough yet. I have until the monday after next to study up.

Just an FYI for non-medical professionals, this is referring to a lumbar puncture, which is usually to evaluate for infectious diseases affecting the brain. I absolutely support more doctors (ESPECIALLY in #primarycare) running for office, even more so in times like these.
So glad we have more physicians like @drannieandrews.com running for office right now.

And not gonna lie, it’s pretty cool to see a candidate for senate using a “Pediatrics” label from @medsky.social

I shared some of these photos from an old phone before, but I think enough time has passed to surface more of them.

About a decade ago, I had reason to poke around the Illinois Institute of Technology's vacant Main Building before it was cleaned up for redevelopment, and found access to the roof.

Two BIG wins in Motnana!

We killed two anti-trans bills today (a drag ban & a bill requiring CPS to remove trans kids from parents).

I'm so grateful for Montana Democrats, who have stood unwavering in their support of trans rights. And grateful to all the Republicans who said enough is enough.

In terms of the female bald Centauri, some of those were skull caps, and others weren't; we let it be known that we wanted to support women going through chemo or other treatments who had lost their hair by casting them here, money that could also help pay for medical bills.
@straczynski.bsky.social Rewatching B5 and as always appreciate the moles and fine hair fuzziness of the Centauri skull caps, especially on the fully bald female characters. The moles in particular lend such an air of realness.
