There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Tomorrow, you borrow my ladder. You borrow my ladder and you give him the test. If he doesn't set up that ladder correctly for you, so you can climb safely - dump him. If he doesn't set up that ladder safely for you, it means he's a selfish man and you're only seeing the tip of the iceberg.

One time my ex set up a ladder for me and I climbed it and fell from the 5th rung because he just set the latches on the rung, not hooked them. I still have a scar on my leg, I was 16. Moral of the story, dump him before he dumps you off a ladder and you have to dump him 10 years later anyways 😂

I built waterlevels.org to solve a niche problem I had (looking up water level data for bodies of water near me.) Cursor has become so good that, after I shipped V1, I've done nearly 100% of the bug fixes and improvements on my iPhone. I'm surprised by how quick I can turn those things around, now.

It's a uniquely nerdy thing to build, and I don't expect many people to use it, but it's there if you want it. I've finally dialed in most-recent measurement fetches, so if a location is still missing historical data, it'll at least be _current_.

Once I get enough historical data, I can start displaying trends and larger changes over time, things like "%lake% hasn't been this low since %year%." or "the last time %river% flooded this much was 48 years ago.")

Aggregating USGS data is a time-consuming process, but historical numbers are slowly trickling in when there's cap space after pulling the last-hour's measurements.

people apparently don't recognize that manufacturers would develop AC units that would work with e.g. common tilt-turn windows if European countries developed a healthy market for them and laws allowing them. The box form factor designed for sash windows is convenient but not the *only one possible*
