Daniel Kahneman, a pioneering psychologist and Nobel laureate, passed away on March 27, 2024. As we mark the first anniversary of his passing, it’s a moment to reflect on his profound contributions to our understanding of human decision-making, biases, and behavioral economics.

Fun fact : In the book "Designing Data-Intensive
Applications :
the big ideas behind reliable, scalable,
and maintainable systems" ,
Martin Kleppmann just mentioned word "python" just two times , one in chapter 4 about pickle and second in the reference section of that module.

We're hopefully just a few hours away (16:06UT = 17:06 in the UK) from the #EuropaClipper launch, decades in the making, and after many twists, turns, and hurdles. NASA will stream the Falcon Heavy launch live:

In an hour or so Europa Clipper mission will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This NASA spacecraft is designed to explore Jupiter's icy moon Europa and search for life support there. #goclipper #nasa #spacex

C/2023 A3 should be visible in the evening with the naked eye from Oct. 9 through the end of the month. And you already missed it.
