I'm starting to wonder what other tech "free lunches" will disappear as the result of higher interest rates. All the feature lists will get stingier and free tiers disappear. Maybe even the disappearance of open source repos of some projects.

Ah there, it's like a high rez pixel brush that snaps to a grid? Kind of satisfying, I should try to make a painting with it in @FocalPaint

I kid you not, these are real SciFi Original movies: 2, 3, 5 & 6 headed shark attack.

What, no four headed sharks?

Very much a fan of this image from visualcapitalist.com/countries that shows why that recent UN treaty on protecting the ocean beyond national jurisdiction matters - this is a HUGE proportion of Earth's surface. #ocean #BBJN press.un.org/en/2023/sgsm21708

I’m pretty sure the gray material here is what was used on old step covers. This was inside the camco radius cover and I had to remove it to get the step to close.

This is a #sunrise from #Mars just a few hours ago...

We're already at 4.4 mm/year sea level rise (global average), and it's accelerating. The average over the past 30 years was 3.0 mm/year.

Just ran across the funniest shit, someone saying “Apple is so behind on AI”.

Meanwhile I’m using Apple’s AI stuff every time I make a photo with my phone, every time I search for images of stuff on my phone, when copying a photo without background, when copy & pasting text from an image, etc. etc.

I guess it’s true that Apple is behind on bullshit generators and lying search engines.

Hello everyone!

We've just released a new section of the docs called How to Hachyderm. In it are details about content warnings, hashtag etiquette, as well as an introductory guide to posting more accessibly. Read more on our blog post:

I've started playing with data to check some of my thoughts about the failure. Given that SVB had less than 10% of its balances below the FDIC limit, one obvious question to ask was:

"What is the distribution of covered balances across other banks?"

I think this is the answer:

"Most other banks have about 75% of the balances covered"

There are probably lots of interesting details and nuances here ... more to come later.

Data came from here:

🚨 It's official - 2023 observed the 5th lowest annual maximum #Arctic sea ice extent.

This maximum was set 6 days earlier than average.
