@StephenAtHome @colbertlateshow I will greatly miss seeing you weeknights. You’ve always put a smile on my face on hard days. If you ever create your own show I’m sure millions will follow you. Good luck and thank you to you and your entire team! 🇨🇦 ❤️

🚨: We used to think our home was a circle. Then, a comet.

Now we know the truth: We live inside a cosmic croissant. This is the Heliosphere—the jagged, electric boundary between us and the crushing pressure of the infinite dark.

Sneakers (1992) got buried by a goofy title and clumsy marketing, but underneath it is a ridiculously well cast, sharply written caper with real wit and gorgeous early 90s craft. People are only now catching on to how good it always was.

AURORA TONIGHT!
The Space Weather Center has just confirmed a G4 solar storm has begun impacting Earth. The aurora should be visible across many parts of the U.S. tonight! Aurora with a camera on your phone or in rural areas is possible in the green. Visible with the naked eye in the red with vibrant colors overhead.

This solar storm has trended stronger, possible the vibrant red area moves south some!

In the green, get away from city lights and use your phone after sunset tonight -- especially closer to 10pm - 12am and you should see it!

As of now, max possible viewing will stop before Florida and the Gulf Coast, unless the geomagnetic storm increases in intensity this evening, which does sometimes happen!

Cloudflare uses lava lamps for their encryption.

No, I am not kidding.

In their San Francisco office, Cloudflare has a wall filled with lava lamps with cameras pointed at them 24/7. At random intervals, a picture is taken, and that image is sent to the Cloudflare servers.

That is then turned into a series of numbers that is then turned into an encryption key.

You're probably wondering "Why not just have a computer do it." Well, computers are actually really bad at making things random.
They follow patterns, and those patterns are easy for hackers to figure out. Thus making Cloudflare susceptible.

So the solution is the real world.
Nature is random. Wild, dare I say.

If these giant tech companies see the value in the wild and natural and random, you should too. ;)
