It'd be interesting to compare across all categories to see if some are more stable than others, and compare across countries too. But that'll be for another day.

I also built an interactive version of the chart on my site so you can more easily see changes for a given podcast and see which podcast is which. Check it out: frankcorso.me/apple-podcas...

Bump chart title "Apple Podcasts Charts Weekly Ranking Changes for Science Podcasts in US". Show positions 1 to 20 from January 11th to March 8th. The top 5 or 6 places are mostly stable but 7 to 15 have bigger changes and 16+ have new podcasts almost every week.

I wondered how much podcast rankings change in a category over time. Ran an Apple Podcasts scraper for a bit and created a bump chart to check.

It turns out that the top few podcasts in the Science category are fairly stable, but the rest of the rankings change quite a bit.

So I was just laid off from Vicariously.

Any reposts super appreciated.

A reminder that the entire NASA budget is 0.37% of the U.S. government's annual spending.

That's one two-hundred-and-seventieth of the yearly federal budget.

Do any #Artists that use Shopify know a good app for making custom product bundles? I want customers to be able to create a custom bundle of a few prints. I’ve never set up anything like that before, so crowd sourcing your fav app recs plz 🫶

I'm a data scientist @ourworldindata.org and I need help from a botanist or someone local to Kyoto, Japan! 🌸

We present one of the world’s longest climate records: 1,200 years of peak cherry blossom dates in Kyoto.

The researcher who maintained it, Prof. Yasuyuki Aono, sadly passed away last year.

Alrighty so NASA (and me and a lot of other people) had a little goof. But I think it’s a great opportunity to remind people that sometimes mistakes can actually be pretty cool and lead to a lot of new perspectives and understanding! 🧪🔭

I never have any proof that a student used an LLM and it generally doesn't feel worth it to pursue, but it's pretty soul crushing to be grading and giving feedback to papers that reads like chat gpt

Um OKAY. Breathtaking photos from the Artemis II crew's lunar flyby and eclipse viewing

I finally got around to Echoes of Wisdom. I’m loving the design and charm in this and the Link’s Awakening remake. Hope they make another game in this engine.

If you’re having problems conceptualizing why going to the moon is such a big deal, here’s your reminder that you can fit every planet in the solar system in between the Earth and the moon. The Artemis II astronauts are going so insanely far compared to anyone else in my lifetime 🔭🧪

From 2018 through around 2021, Abdoul Rasnab sold devices with his own proprietary fork of GrapheneOS. That's 4 years after the project was started. He had no involvement in creating or founding GrapheneOS. He also didn't write absolutely any of the GrapheneOS project's code.

I made a tiny tool for quickly sharing small datasets (< ~1000 rows) without uploading any data to a server.

It compresses the data into the link itself, so there’s no account, hosting, or storage layer involved.
