   From mcnees@mastodon.social on Mastodon: Over 45,000 galaxies are visible in this recent image from JWST’s Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey, captured with the Near-Infrared Camera. If it has diffraction spikes it’s a star. Otherwise, it’s a galaxy! Image: NASA, ESA, CSA, B. Robertson (UCSC), B. Johnson (CfA), S. Tacchella (Cambridge), M. Rieke (U. Arizona), D.

   It has been nice visiting with family, and the peace of our rental cabin has been fantastic. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/86a9b33c596a51bb7bef66b7ac00f0cd2b6f8fbafc016d146c66ab3ec6f0c4d7/view

   From mcnees@mastodon.social on Mastodon: Even in 1913, when Einstein was nominated for membership in the Prussian Academy, Planck's letter of support admitted that Einstein "might sometimes have overshot the target in his speculations, as for example with the light quantum hypothesis." But evidence continued to mount. Finally, Compton's 1923 result treating X-rays as mass…

   Stopped near Escanaba last night, and back on the road for the last part of the drive this morning! https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/1207218ae661fc53889c7363f83aed804049a460ef8c6f90ae884bb37c367ea2/view

   We had to route around an accident that has Highway 17 closed in both directions. Excited to be in "Algoma, Unorganized, North Part". https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/3420c20459d9241505a681d45391e18a88fe29cbd09445fa7b17010c7a3f348f/view

   We are west of the regional Ontario wildfires and, clearly, the wind is not out of the northeast. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/e7bb49195d5806b0861815fc5a6ce3d5cf95498a2588a7f91aed7cc5e2a53ea3/view

    Starting to get excited for the road trip to see family in Wisconsin. A little anxious about wildfires in between here and there, however.

    Got weirdly hung up on a simple problem involving the Poisson equation, and still have not resolved it. Who knew an isotropic collisionless gas in a spherically symmetric gravitational potential would be so IRRITATING? https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/7fcc02ad3df2ed9843b945250eef98bff9f7892a5da3711780562d1c81133b64/view

    I finally had a chance to figure out why my social bridging software was no longer able to talk to Twitter. Indeed, it's because under Twitter's new leadership, python-twitter has been deemed as violating something in their terms of service. It says I can submit a ticket, but they make it impossible to figure out how to do that (the service portal is a loop). So I am deci…

    Some words from a biography of Werner Heisenberg that are just as relevant today as they were in 1933. From "Beyond Uncertainty" by David C. Cassidy. Inoculation against demagoguery is, after all other guardrails have failed, one of the last checks against the total destruction of a democratic state by a singular individual. I just wish I understood completely how to insu…

    Had a great 6.2km run today, with the focus being on enjoying the Junction Creek Path. Ended at Robinson Playground and Lake, which was lovely! https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/338098ddd3aceb6c74c5332e758450818ebd72a47afcc649021c485e8af8bf22/view

    The landscaping will take at least a year or more, but you can't update that view. Relaxing at our new cafe table and enjoying coffee and a homemade cinnamon roll c/o @ jodi Winds out of northwest helping with wildfire smoke. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/3d737c6f72d1dfbd4b0ffd86f80d118d03a70767a4446370b775d2bb74c4e4c5/view
