"If, in the final 7000 years of their reign, dinosaurs became hyperintelligent, [and] built a civilization...it would be virtually impossible to tell...That’s what 180 million years of complete dominance buys you in the fossil record." —theatlantic.com/science/archiv…

.OpenSPIM I see you designed a new logo for the project! Should we update openspim.org and github.com/openspim also to use this logo? Do you have a higher resolution version I can source?

Congratulations to Dr. Philipp Philipp Hanslovsky. And my sincere thanks for all the incredible work you've done for the #ImageJ / Fiji community over the years! 👏🍻

A message for preston and TheOdd1sOut from my son: Dear Preston and TheOdd1sOut, An idea: break into TheOdd1sOut's Impossible (but easy for Preston) Minecraft House. I love your vids!

I wrote a beets plugin to upload music to iBroadcast: discourse.beets.io/t/1526. With the shutdown of Google Play Music, I'm surprised iBroadcast doesn't have more buzz—I'm impressed with it so far. And beets is a dream come true for CLI-obsessed OCD music collectors! 🎶

I'm not big on exotic locales, but it's still rough seeing my Google Maps travel summaries splashing pharmacy and fast food as top highlights for the 10th month running. 😣

I will never forget August 2014 when we added analytics to #ImageJ to find out which features to focus on—and the community revolted on privacy grounds. Six years later, if you own a Mac, the nightmare has arrived: Apple knows everything you do. My next machine will run Linux. 😥

Wow! Thanks, TurboTax! #softwaregore

The new #ImageJ website NEEDS YOUR HELP to launch next Friday! 🦸 We'll all be working on it together next week Tue-Fri at the virtual Fiji hackathon. Even a little bit helps, and no programming experience necessary! imagej.github.io/events/wiki-gr…

Finally, the new #ImageJ wiki is LIVE! imagej.net All old links should still work, redirecting to the new URLs. If not, please report it on GitHub or the Image.sc Forum.

The mamba project has made me love conda again. No more waiting minutes at a time for the solver, only to have it ultimately fail. Here's my conda config: github.com/ctrueden/dotfi… – Zsh + conda + mamba + esc/conda-zsh-completion + aliases. These can help you defeat the pain! 👨‍🔧

TIL: If you let a domain name expire, hackers can purchase it using a service like DropCatch, then restore your old content but with the forms replaced with phishing loggers! Ugh, maybe I'll just park my retired domains from now on... 😩

Am I alone in finding it hilarious that the print function in JavaScript pops up a Print dialog?

TIL: `tar xf archive.tar.gz` auto-recognizes gzipped tar (without the `z` option), but `tar cf archive.tar.gz ...` does *not* produce a gzipped tar. -_-
