Get ready for a jaw-dropping cosmic spectacle! On July 17th, the sky is set to deliver one of the most stunning planetary parades of the decade. Six planets will line up in a breathtaking arc, creating a rare "planet parade" you'll remember for years.What you can see:Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn — shining bright and visible to the naked eye from almost anywhere with a clear view.
Uranus and Neptune — trickier, but possible with the naked eye from truly dark skies (binoculars or a small telescope will make them pop).

This isn't just any alignment — it's a spectacular lineup along the ecliptic, like nature's own cosmic highway lighting up the twilight. Mark your calendars now, set a reminder, and find a spot away from city lights for the best show. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime sky event. Look up on July 17th — the universe is putting on a performance! (Pro tip: Check local weather and rise/set times for your area. Even a few days around the date should offer great views!)

In 2021, @Iprogrammerinfo did a write-up on Qodana - just as it was commercially released (kudos for being right on the pulse). Now, 4 years later, @nikosvg
explores what has changed. https://t.co/3bAcrGOjj4

When hiring your first 10-15 engineers, forget ‘10x engineers,’ focus on ‘engineers who give a sh*t’ - who care about building it right, think about the next 4 releases, learn to become domain experts, eager to hear user feedback, care about the business and their part in supporting it, will burn the midnight oil to get it done without being prompted, are excited to write the docs, push those around them to be better, want to be part of the interview circuit, keep linear/jira clean and up to date, start to dig into the competitors, add that extra polish because they can’t imagine doing it any other way.

Companies are representations of the people that build them.

When building a company, find team members who really ‘give a sh*t,’ it’s the only way.

Most business experiments do nothing, so many small radical experiments are better than a few big precise ones as they let you quickly screen for possible huge outcomes.

Here are the results of many A/B tests at Bing, the top 2% of ideas were responsible for 75% of the gains. 1/

Vladimir Prelog was interested in the 3D arrangement of atoms in molecules.

He also helped chemists classify different forms of the same molecule that look like mirror images. For example, lactic acid can exist as (S)-lactic acid on the left and (R)-lactic acid on the right.

@ouranometrian2 May be due to diminishing muscle recruitment - how much fibers and of what kind actually respond to same impulse from motor neuron, there is about 10 day of decay - leading to overtraining of those responded, then your body increases response...

I love that one of humanity's oldest traditions is asteroid mining.

This paper finds that every iron object made before 1,200BCE came from space, forged from hammered meteoric iron, including King Tut’s dagger & Inuit lances (in images). Meteoric iron was worth more than gold.

@tagir_valeev There are special maps for hiking, e.g. Komoot, https://t.co/AJonul9wX7, etc. Most use OpenStreetMap layers, and have elevation and trail quality preview.
