Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I am a scientist, not a creative, so I don’t want to give the wrong impression that my job is under the same kind of pressure. But I have been secretly thinking about John Henry repeatedly as I hear funding agencies, administrators, colleagues talk about how much time AI saves. So glad you said it. 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 30/09/2026You nailed it! I didn’t know that’s how I felt until I read you say it. 010
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Sheesh, not a good day for the greater Schmidt clan. 010
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Yeah, but they’re never going to get the recognition they deserve. 000

Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I don’t want to spoil anything about the show, so all I’ll say is if you like highly creative live comedy, try and go see Laura Ramoso’s show. It was impressive. lauraramoso.comlauraramoso.comHome | Laura RamosoLaura Ramoso is a comedian and content creator known for her sharp character sketches, cultural humor, and viral videos on relationships and identity. 011
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 11/09/2026You said it really well. I love Star Wars, and I also acknowledge that it has parts that are complete trash. I think my favorite send ups of Star Wars are by folks who share that love and also the awareness of the trashy bits. 000

Reposted by Axel SchmidtEternal Skies TCG RPG @eternalskies.neocities.org · 04/09/2026Learning to code? That's great. My main tip is don't learn on Python. I know you read Python is great, but don't learn on Python. I know people told you Python is easy, and it is, but don't learn on Python. Learning to code on Python will teach you to write bad code. Learn elsewhere, then Python. 6339038

Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 26/08/2026There was a young woman on my train this morning in fully Dolly get up; a pink dress, platinum wig, the whole ensemble. It felt moving to see. Can you imagine any other famous person whose passing would inspire random people to go to work in costume? 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 19/08/2026On the plus side, I was able to repair my broken voltmeter! On the minus side, I needed to buy a new voltmeter to figure out what was wrong with the first one. One of those days… 010
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 19/08/2026This study shows that AI helps students complete homework more correctly and quickly, and leads to worse outcomes on exams. This matches my anecdotal experience that AI harms education. edtechsims.com/generative-a...edtechsims.comGenerative AI Learning Penalty – EdTechSims 001

Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I’d give Cleavon Little an Oscar for that scene alone. What he does with his voice and his eyes… it’s brilliant. 010
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Not totally confident on this one, but it’s possible this bright-eyed fellow is a male emerald jumping spider, Paraphidippus aurantius. He was super curious, always turning to face me, and hard to photograph on the abdomen. 010
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Another spider from this week: a goldenrod crab spider, Misumena vatia. This one was found by the kiddo, who snapped a photo and immediately sent it to me. 😃🥰 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 02/08/2026It was a pleasure making your acquaintance, but this no place for a spider. 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 02/08/2026A new spider species for me this week! I think it’s a long-jawed orb weaver, Tetragnatha elongata. It was a passenger on my kayak, but I was able to paddle to shore and convince him to disembark. Very distinctive body shape and crazy looking jaws! 110
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I totally do this, and often. I’m not proud of it, and I wish I had better control of it, but it’s definitely a thing. 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 24/07/2026He sounds lonely. I hope they decide to make the cannibal his cell mate. 000
Axel Schmidt @physics-axel.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Tbh, that’s a pro Bluesky move. One wouldn’t get that kind of concierge treatment at the other site. 010
