I fucking wish this essay on how romance and sex are framed as the only escape from the hell patriarchy imposes on boys wasn't so fucking endlessly relevant.

"Look up at the stars and not down at your feet.
Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist.
Be curious."

New test video of Blue’s 550K lbf thrust, ox-rich staged combustion, LNG-fueled BE-4 engine. The test is a mixture ratio sweep at 65% power level and 114 seconds in duration. Methane (or LNG) has proved to be an outstanding fuel choice. @BlueOrigin #GradatimFerociter

If someone told me "I hear voices coming from my household fan," I'd have been 99% sure they were hallucinating, or something like that.

Turns out this is a real phenomenon -- metal objects can sometimes pick up faint radio signals: https://t.co/Iu43hrs1AT

Great links, Bruce! Stateless systems are fascinating, come naturally with functional programming, and I love many powerful modern examples like https://t.co/hVVj8EtGAB or "your-server-as-a-function" for distributed systems (https://t.co/AAUQRqYowd). https://t.co/B0NpPSkKEe

When someone hasn't read a classic book, I always try to say "Oh! What a treat you have ahead of you!" rather than "I can't believe you haven't read this!" because no one wants to be shamed into reading.

We should lead with our delight in literature, not our pretentiousness.
