(theological intermezzo). Post: "No way this is C.S.Lewis. More like the big G of old. Or the pseudo-religions du jour. Wonder if anyone bought it. ". Comments: Calling out the (misattributed, obviously) Gnosticism -- every single one. Good site.

Check out the fantastic asteroid orbit viewer made by the @VRubinObs EPO team!. Fun detail: the current tally of Rubin discoveries is listed as 1,891. Why not 2104 as originally announced? Because ~200 were since recognized as previously lost asteroids, which we helped find.
Rubin's thousands of newly-discovered asteroids. now in your web browser!. Introducing NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory's 3D Orbitviewer ☄️🪐. Follow along as Rubin discovers millions more asteroids in our Solar System in the coming years at 🪐

As someone who lived through the socialist utopia that @ZohranKMamdani advocates for, skipped meals at 10yrs old because of it, spent 7th grade running to bomb shelters once society collapsed around it, I cannot emphasize enough just how surreal and terrifying it is to hear this.
This is not terrible AI, it's a real message from the current frontrunner for NYC Mayor to his socialist comrades. "The end goal of seizing the means of production.". I can't believe this is actually happening.
