Oh uh surprise I'm at #SummerCon in BK so come find me. They've issued me a dayglo vest so it should be pretty easy.

Still very much feel like there's been a niche for a peer-to-peer offline mesh messaging service waiting to be filled.

Gonna start using "sinner" instead of "reader" when addressing my audience directly.

The astronomy world is abuzz with the discovery of a new visitor to the solar system, not an asteroid or comet but an object from interstellar space, similar to ʻOumuamua in 2017.

Its hyberbolic orbit with eccentricity 6 implies it came from and is headed to far beyond the solar system.

The object officially named 3I/ATLAS and C/2025 N1 (aka A11pl3Z) will not pass close to Earth; perihelion will be around Oct 29, just inside the orbit of Mars.

Size: 20 km?
