A poignant moment

My therapist said I need to find things to keep me busy, so I created the @cdnspace Artemis II dashboard.
I reverse-engineered the Unity Engine powering the NASA AROW visualization and found an absolute treasure trove of data to display.
Little did I expect that it's now being seen by anywhere from 200 to 600 people at any given time with 130,000 people having looked at it in the last 24 hours. People are even building projects around my API.
Yesterday, I received a message on LinkedIn from someone working in Mission Control in Houston... and they're using my dashboard! He even sent me a photo, but I can't share it until after the crew has splashed down.
Mind blown, and an absolute pick-me-up. The best part? It's being served from my basement.
Heads up GitHub users. You have less than a month left to opt out of "Allow GitHub to use my data for AI model training".
"On April 24 we'll start using GitHub Copilot interaction data for AI model training unless you opt out." https://github.com/settings/copilot/features
