This photo of Dr Bouman deserves to be one of the classic images in physics. Amazing to capture the first glimpse. Such a genuine response

Congratulations to Katie Bouman to whom we owe the first photograph of a black hole ever. Not seeing her name circulate nearly enough in the press.
Amazing work. And here’s to more women in science (getting their credit and being remembered in history) 💥🔥☄️

You don't need fancy pens or notebooks to keep a journal and it might help to put your thoughts down somewhere.
Wrote a little thing to auto-archive older entries in Feedbin, helping avoid stress induced by an ever-growing RSS reading backlog:

Hey local Masto folk, library fans, and infrastructure nerds! You guys really should check out the latest 99% Invisible podcast: titled "Palaces for the People." All about shared community space, and especially libraries.

Rare work-related post: for our enterprise customers, Censys now provides continuously-updated data on more than 1,000 ports, which is kinda cool: https://censys.io/blog/top-1000-ports
no, you accidentally stayed up until 1am watching Mitski music videos
The reason Apple added systemwide dark mode to macOS before/instead of iOS is such a mystery to me.
There's huge demand for it, and it should be easier: the fact that apps are (mostly; iPad slightly complicates it) full screen would eliminate the problem of some applications/documents having bright white backgrounds in an overall dark interface. On an iPhone, the screen can be all-or-nothing dark since it's displaying a single app/document.

I would like to enable Mastodon's full-text search feature, but I doubt this virtual machine has the RAM to handle it 🙁: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/administration/optional-features/#full-text-search
The next VM up the list would be $15/month, which is quite a lot. Probably not worth it.
