i write code and build electronics badly
may the sixth be with you
of course we won the one baseball game that I didn’t get put into 💀💀💀
don’t you just love it when you make a small typo in your code that causes a syntax error and softlocks every player at the same point in the last level

What created this giant X in the clouds? It was the shadow of contrails illuminated from below. When airplanes fly, humid engine exhaust may form water droplets that might freeze in Earth's cold upper atmosphere. These persistent streams of water and ice scatter light from the Sun above and so appear bright from below. On rare occasions, though, when the Sun is near the horizon, contrails can be lit from below. These contrails cast long shadows upwards, shadows that usually go unseen unless there is a high cloud deck. But that was just the case over Istanbul, Türkiye, earlier this month. Contrails occur all over planet Earth and, generally, warm the Earth when the trap infrared light but cool the Earth when they efficiently reflect sunlight. The image was taken by a surprised photographer in the morning on the way to work.
@jeffalo would i get banned for setting up a user script that posts “nighty morning” on my account every day

interesting discovery - if you change the parameters of conway’s game of life to be basically opposite - that is, the cell needs 1, 4, 6, 7, or 8 neighbors to reproduce and 5, 6, 7, or 8 neighbors to stay alive, a single cell will actually generate a rough approximation of a sierpinski carpet. i made a diagram of the process below
@pkmnq I heard somewhere that you’re a Conway’s Game of Life enthusiast, thoughts on this?
