Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 27/09/2026My idea of a good 47th (!) birthday is getting up at 5:30am after a red-eye to run the original marathon course solo from Marathon, Greece to Athens! Half-way mark: 4621
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 11/07/2026On the train to NY for AEOUD, I coincidentally passed the world’s largest steam locomotive, the Big Boy (yes) 4014 at the “world-famous horseshoe bend.” It’s frankly heartwarming to see all the train nerds so excited with their cameras out. (It is largest by a margin of about 10%.) 3621

Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 13/04/2026Every time I upload a YouTube video I struggle with this content disclosure question! I think I always end up admitting that it is "light or moderately shocking," although I don't think we have the same thing in mind. 4410

Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 17/01/2026I try not to allow much "political messaging" thought into my brain but I still get irrationally upset when an obvious pun is missed. How do you run a story on Trump's net approval among Gen Z dropping 42pp (!) in a year, but miss the "Not Z" angle??? 1260

Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 15/09/2025Working through my to-do notes for the final touches on my video, but I’m not sure what I had in mind to do about the last item 0160
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 26/05/2025There's a coffee-themed contest going on at my 3D printiverse and I noticed a conspicuous lack of stovetop coffee makers among the entries. So instead of working on my video I made one. makerworld.com/en/models/14... 0250
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 14/03/2025Took the day off to work on some computation geometry for #PiDay! 0180
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Thank you, Wikipedia, for this intuitive way to way to remember which axes "roll," "pitch," and "yaw" are. 210018
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 20/02/2025I understand why people are concerned about space rock 2024-YR4, which by taking the cumulative impact probability of 0.28% and multiplying it by a velocity of 13,260 m/s has an expected damage of 37 m/s. But even more concerning to me is 2016 WN55’s expected damage of NaN! 0181
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 14/02/2025I didn’t even know it was a competition, but I’m glad I was top ten enough to be featured in this wholesome video by my friend David! 1122

Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 24/11/2024A best thing about programming for fun is that you can spend your time on anything you want. Like if you have a bug and previously spent time implementing the MOV file format, you can animate the bug, and sip coffee while looking at the mesmerizing cube, instead of fixing the bug! #screenshotsunday 1462
Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. ! @tomvii.bsky.social · 23/11/2024I think I'm rooting for Mastodon (or, perhaps: no more social networks?) but I figure I'd better grab a username while the going's good, lest I end up with something stupid like "suckerpinch." 3180
