Working on AI for Tableau Pulse Discover has been a journey - full of surprises, challenges, and real insights about how people actually use data. The limits of AI for analytics. I wrote a bit about that here:

Thank you @davidguettamusic.bsky.social. Loved the honesty and perspective on the art, the value fans expect from festivals. Personally, I love novelty - give me the undiscovered underground. 🔊 🎧 💿

Life’s small rituals, a $25 USD tiny of ceremonial matcha green tea and bamboo whisk, chasen, to aerate and foam the drink. Eisai, the Rinzai monk, carried Zen and powdered tea to #Japan like spores across an ocean, seeding a ritual that would branch through centuries as quietly.

If #2024YR4 strikes the Moon in 2032, it won’t shatter our satellite (like in #seveneves) but a blast that big would fling dust and rock outward, spiking Earth’s micrometeoroids for days, hammering satellites and spacecraft with a storm of tiny, violent debris. 4.3% impact probability.
James Webb telescope takes emergency look at 'city-killer' asteroid 2024 YR4 ahead of close encounter in 2032
The James Webb Space Telescope has taken its first look at the near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 before a perilous close approach in 2032. The telescope confirmed Earth is safe, but there is a 3.8% chance ...

The decline and fall of stars in the Universe
The cosmic star-formation rate rose and rose for billions of years, peaking about 10-11 billion years ago.
Today, it's slowed to a trickle, and someday, will cease altogether.

The decline and fall of stars in the Universe
For over 10 billion years, the cosmic star-formation rate has been dropping and dropping. Someday, the final star in the Universe will die.

I was reading that after 48 years, the Z80 microprocessor finally ended production in 2024. An 8-bit superstar that powered arcade cabinets, homebrew dreams, and whole eras of computing. Hard to believe a chip from 1976 outlived so many of its successors. 🤯 #trs80

3I/ATLAS is the first interstellar object bright enough for amateurs to image: so fabulous to see the delight ☄️😍
I got it... I actually got it... Interstellar comet 3i, imaged from the middle of light-polluted Kendal, at 6am this morning, using my Seestar S50... This comet was already billions of years old before our Sun was even *born*... Very chuffed with this!

Derided today, BASIC’s strange, free-form jumping system helped inspire the movement to remove GOTO from most languages > a kind of mythic serpent whose chaos taught civilization to build walls.

Japan once dreamed of a winged craft called HOPE, a spaceplane meant to slip from orbit and land like a thought returning to Earth.
But the Cold War thawed, budgets cooled, and the vision dissolved like spores in sunlight.

Europe once built a mockup for a 3-seat spaceplane called Hermes. It could’ve launched on Ariane 5 and glided home like a mini-Shuttle. Then politics killed it.

Randall’s idea is that a thin, unseen disk of dark matter periodically tugs the Solar System as we oscillate through the Galaxy, shaking loose comets from the Oort Cloud and sending extinction-level barrages toward Earth like a cosmic metronome of catastrophe.
