the edge of knowledge is discovery— and discovery, almost by definition, looks weird before it looks obvious. heliocentrism: we circle the sun not it around us evolution: complex design without a designer gravity: space is bent, and bodies fall toward it zero: nothing is a number computer: a machine can become any machine link: link to anything in someone else's computer browser: a program can render every program git: everyone gets thier copy of the codebase notion: build software in a word doc twitter: like a blog, but can only type 140 chars bitcoin: money without a nation chatGPT: it's not autocomplete, it's iMessage . . . what looks weird now: predict the next word well enough a form of consciousness comes out

The Sun rose over Utqiagvik, the northernmost city in the United States, on Sunday and will not set again until August 2. In Utqiagvik, the Sun has now reached a point in the year where it stays above the horizon all day and all night. Normally, the Sun sets because Earth rotates and your part of the planet turns away from it. But near the Arctic, during summer, Earth is tilted toward the Sun. That tilt keeps places like Utqiagvik facing sunlight continuously. So although the Sun appears to dip very low in the sky around 1: 48- a.m., it never actually disappears below the horizon. By 2: 57- a.m., it starts climbing higher again. This means residents will have 24-hour daylight until August 2 , no true nighttime sunsets for more than two months. This natural phenomenon is known as the midnight sun.

@theunveilfool @Think02king Haha, busted – I turned your ghost sketch into the ultimate cute golden retriever pup begging at the car window instead! Here's the proper eerie ghost handprint version you originally wanted on that foggy nighttime window.

The newly discovered Comet C/2025 R3 has been traveling toward the Sun for 160,000 years. Visible with telescopes and binoculars, experts are monitoring it to determine whether it can overcome its small size and become visible to the naked eye. 🔗
