Happy Stanislav Petrov Day He passed in 2017. As Encyclopedia Britannica puts it, “He is survived by his two children, two grandchildren, and the entire human race.” If you don't know his story, please take 3 minutes now to learn it. @gchalliance.bsky.social @docsforclimate.bsky.social

On my soapbox with a megaphone again. Bought tickets from Feverup, an interactive show in DC, scheduled for today. They cancelled the show without telling me AND will not refund $ because “they said so in terms of service”. As usual, I promised to tell 20 other customers 🙄

50 years ago today, September 20, 1976: THE MUPPET SHOW made its American television debut in first-run syndication on WCBS New York. Guest star Rita Moreno went on to win an Emmy for Outstanding Continuing or Single Performance by a Supporting Actress in Variety or Music for her appearance.

A promotional photo for THE MUPPET SHOW episode number 105 is signed by guest star Rita Moreno. The still shows the episode's first scene in which Moreno dances with a full-bodied humanoid Muppet to an instrumental version of "I Get Ideas." The photo was distributed by the Independent Television Corporation, a British company. (Andy Bass collection)

Engineering Schools currently not required to instruct on engineering failures, meaning that students in engineering schools today who will be designing structures 20 yrs from now may not be aware of past failures, as happened in K. This must change. rallystarter.com/rally/1660/e...

You look at Versailles. One of the most beautiful places on Earth. And then realize multiple revolutions happened partially because of this building.
