낮 동안 우리를 활기 있게 하신 저의 주님, 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님,
당신과 함께 있으리니, 자는 동안도 지켜 주시어 편히 쉬게 하소서.

"5. 오늘도 면발처럼 얽히고 설킨 삶 속에서, 주님께서 저희와 함께하셨음을 기억하게 하소서."

🍝 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님께서 여러분과 함께.
😋 또한 주교의 면발과 함께 하소서.
🍝 기도합시다.
저의 주님, 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님, 이 밤을 편히 쉬게 하시고, 거룩한 죽음을 맞게 하소서.

My dedication to our community remains steadfast. I've travelled this country with the hopes of networking and growing the fediverse and our community.

However I've begged for help in exactly this area for as long as Elon has owned Xitter. I've begged our community for folks to step up to create a society.

Yet no one has stepped up. We've all had to figure this technical shit out on our own, in our own silos, and it seems no one wants to share their knowledge.

My sleepless nights of dealing with databases, and endless hours of googling is really starting to wear on me.

24 hours ago I asked for some help and it went to deaf ears. I'm doing everything I can but I'm really starting to burn the candle on both ends.

This is the problem with where we're at with the fediverse. We have people bending over backwards and there's no rescue boat in sight when they need help.

If we truly want to build community, we do it together.

At what point is my cup empty? There's 36,000 people here.

This is why Canadians elected Mark Carney to shore up our international partnerships. The world must stand united against Trump NOW - Greenland is the line."

In 1964, the first simulation showing that Pluto is in a mean-motion resonance with Neptune was published: articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/pd

They ran a 120,000 year simulation that showed libration of the resonant angle for the first time. This must have been terrifyingly hard to do. Punch cards, vacuum tubes, FORTRAN? I don't even know how they did this, but it was run on the Naval Ordnance Research Calculator

This was the first time Pluto's orbital stability was explained.

A figure from a paper showing Pluto's motion relative to Neptune's over 120,000 years.  Pluto makes almost a circle, but with two little loops 90 degrees from Neptune's position.

You know who did a lot of programming on the Naval Ordnance Research Computer and was brilliant and good at orbits? Gladys West!

This archived Air Force bio says she was involved in the Pluto study web.archive.org/web/2019060317

But the paper is credited as Cohen & Hubbard 1964. Because she was "just" a programmer, and the research note linked above starts and ends with "gentlemen", so yeah, they definitely didn't want to put her as a co-author.

I'm sorry to see obituaries for Dr. Gladys West this morning: thezebra.org/2026/01/18/dr-gla

She was brilliant and did a lot of incredibly important scientific work, a lot of which was hidden/uncredited early on, because she was a mathematician in a time when "computer" was a job description.

René Martens im Altpapier:

Die mediale Normalisierung der Aggression

Wenn die USA Dänemark mit Staatsgebietsraub drohen, ist das kein "Übernahmeplan", und es handelt es sich auch nicht um einen "Streit". Viele Medien haben sich aber dafür entschieden, die Wirklichkeit entsprechend zu verformen.
