THIS. TOP TIER FRUIT BANANA.

[TeeBag🇰🇪 @tii_bag]

Bananas are such convenient fruits like no chopping or washing needed, not sticky, no juice dripping around and they come with their own biodegradable packaging. A 10/10 in my books

A $2.5 billion robot has been alone on another planet for 13 years and is still doing science. The scale of that sentence gets worse the longer you think about it.

Curiosity landed in August 2012. Obama was president. Instagram had 80 million users. The iPhone 5 hadn’t shipped yet. The rover was designed for a two-year mission and 20 kilometers of driving. It’s now driven 35.5 kilometers, climbed over 327 meters up the side of a mountain, drilled 46 holes into Martian rock, and is currently running its fifth mission extension.

The computer running all of this has 256 MB of RAM and a 200 MHz processor. Your AirPods have more computing power. Every command sent from Earth takes 14 minutes to arrive. Every photo sent back takes the same 14 minutes. When Curiosity drills into a rock, the team in Pasadena won’t know if it worked for half an hour. They’ve been operating on that delay, every single day, for 4,846 Martian sols.

The power source is 10.6 pounds of plutonium-238 generating about 110 watts. Less than a ceiling fan. It will keep producing electricity for decades because the half-life of Pu-238 is 87.7 years. The rover will run out of moving parts before it runs out of power.

And those wheels. Machined from single blocks of aluminum, 0.75 millimeters thick. Half a dime. JPL watched them get shredded by Martian rock starting in 2013, rerouted the entire mission path, taught the rover to drive backwards, and kept going. The wheels look like they lost a fight with a can opener. The rover is still climbing a mountain.

Every iPhone you’ve owned since 2012 is in a landfill. Curiosity is on Mars, 140 million miles from the nearest repair shop, running on a ceiling fan’s worth of nuclear power, sending data through a 14-minute time delay, on shredded wheels, doing geology that rewrites what we know about whether life ever existed somewhere other than Earth.

We built that. With 0.01% of the federal budget.

I am officially addicted to monitoring the situation

And if you haven’t been monitoring, the situation was crazy all day

Situation monitoring might be the greatest activity ever

When I was a kid, I accidentally hit Ctrl + Alt + Down, which on Intel integrated graphics flipped the screen orientation.

I didn’t understand what was happening, so we flipped the monitor and propped it on some books. It stayed like this for 10 years

Remember when Gemini was called Bard?

That was 18 months ago.

Important chart. S&P 490 has had basically no earnings growth since 2022, despite rampant inflation. It’s just 10 companies doing really well, while the broader economy is in contraction in real terms.

Anyone who watched Washington Sundar run out of partners on 85 and 96, in the space of three Tests in 2021, when he had no idea when he'd get his next opportunity in the format, would understand how desperately he wants that maiden hundred now.

This is a fantastic promo! And coming from a Coimbatore-based ad agency (Desert Hawk) for a Coimbatore-owned brand... even more impressive! Watch it first and then read the rest 👇

This is honestly the first time i’ve ever thought “this is the end” when it comes to watching Novak Djokovic.
