Holy. Shit. This is Reid Wiseman's video he took with his iPhone while at the moon π

Screenshot of Wiretext, a browser-based wireframe tool displaying a low-fidelity dashboard mockup with monospaced ASCII-style components including KPI cards, a line chart, a channel breakdown panel, and a data table. The left panel shows layers and the right panel shows an inspector.
I'm absolutely fascinated by this tool that lets you build wireframes using text elements, ASCII art style.
I've seen wireframes in excel, powerpoint, on paper, but this is a first. Still, it's actually quite efficient and exportable. Love it!

Artemis 2 was the furthest human voyage from Earth. Per the final JPL Horizons trajectory I estimate the max distance from the geocenter was 413145 km at 2304 UTC Apr 6 (about 4 km less and 1 min later than PAO's report at the time). (1 / n ).....
In addition to experiencing a longer total eclipse totality from space β lasting nearly one hour instead of just a few minutes here on Earth β the Artemis II crew got a glimpse at the Sunβs corona wispily peeking out from behind the Moon without interference from the Earthβs atmosphere.
There's a nice #Artemis II mission tracker here: artemis.cdnspace.ca
LOTS of data about its current position, crew activities, and whether or not the toilet is currently "Go"
Looking through one of the four windows of the Orion spacecraft, a tiny crescent Earth is illuminated against the blackness of space and grows smaller as the crew journeys closer to the Moon. Part of the window edge is visible; the rest is darkness. [Alt-text slightly revised from ESA/NASA version]
We are so, so small. #Artemis
But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole shipβs company down to doom with him?
The Moon as seen by Artems II on 4 April 2026. Mare Orientale is seen side on as the feature narrow feature on the right limb of the Moon, just past the darker blob of crater Grimaldi.
OK this is cool. The first time humans have seen the whole Mare Orientale on the far side of the Moon with their own eyes. See flic.kr/p/2s5HA2X π§ͺπ

Matzah with butter is delicious. Itβs an elite snack. Iβm tired of this anti-matzah negative talk every year. You have this delicious basically food-like item that will also make you incredibly constipated over the course of a week and here you are complaining
Imagine claiming to be a Star Trek fan while expressing disdain for at least 90% of what Star Trek is (and always has been)
Hereβs a slightly longer version of my thinking on the social media verdicts. The trouble I see is that the problems with social media are so multifarious. Addictive design is part of the story, but there are so many more pathologies and harms. π§΅
So I discovered that the bagpipe song I really like times perfectly with the Napoleon Dynamite dance. Then a bunch of other stuff happened and I am so sorry but this exists now and I'm far less sorry than previously implied.
Huge result here - the idea that social platforms can be defective products that cause harm is going to send shockwaves through an industry that has claimed essentially blanket protection from liability by saying everything is speech
There is a difference between criticizing a state and assigning moral stain to a people.

If someone yells "free Palestine" at me because I'm visibly a Jew, they are not expressing solidarity with the concept of a free Palestine, they're expressing hostility towards me based on a racist assumption that I am opposed to a free Palestine.
When I was being considered for Mamdani's head of the Office to Combat Antisemitism, I spent a lot of time imagining what that role and office could look like.
This outlines why I think orgs & leaders have failed so badly, and how we can build an alternative to their authoritarian approach.
wait, fuck, this is gorillaz
"Despite their radical politics, certain leftist songs seamlessly entered the canon of Ladino popular music."

Tile sign in Union Square station was missing the last tile for months with the last letters written in black marker on bare wall; somebody added PANTS so the stop is now Union Squarepants. You kind of had to be there tbh
They finally fixed that sign at Union Square
βAI can never be AI without humans. It is not artificial intelligence. Itβs African intelligence...We are training our own death. We train ChatGPT and itβs killing us slowly.β
Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. Now, they're fighting back.

Look at this photograph
Haman was just brutally framemogged while trying to jestermaxx the Jews by gigachad Mordechai.
Mordechai doesnβt bow. Doesnβt flinch. Just stands there aura-maxxed.
With Haman's cortisol spiked and King Ahasuerus unable to ignore the Foids, Mordechai, Esther and the Jews just cloutbombed Shoshan.
