A Giant Sea Spider (genus Colossendeis), also known as a pycnogonid, found on the deep seafloor at depths between 2,200 and 4,000 meters. 🌊🦀
While some species are small, those in the deep ocean can grow over 50 cm (20 inches) across due to deep-sea gigantism.

A graphic showing "Pride Versioning" where the first number is the Proud Version. Then second is the Default Version. And the last number is the Shame Version.
Made very few changes to the latest build and was thinking maybe I'll be able to ship this one without incrementing the shame version (last number in a version number) and 2 minutes into testing, it's already getting bumped.
First losing the Murdaugh trial, now this. Dick H can't catch a break!
How does an animal choose between exploring for a better food source and taking advantage of a known one? Our recent work in Current Biology demonstrates how recent feeding and metabolic state dynamically influence fly local search. bit.ly/3PfrIv3 #Science #Neurosky #Foraging #Drosophila
love the serif font you are using in this post
congrats! this is such an exciting step!

All clean codebases are alike; each broken codebase is broken in its own way.

A doorway in an industrial kitchen has a door-like structure made from vertical plastic strips colored with a dark paint. In the center-most strips, the paint is riven with white cracks. But the strips on the edges are unscathed.
Guess which of these plastic strips in the Ikea kitchen get smacked the most
