Space engineer, guy with a camera, owner of a dogsized hurricane, mouthfull about Medezeggenschap.
@FundaFun ok zou die rose kamer toch anders kwalificeren. Waarom komt er licht tussen die schrootjes door?
@Techaltar question for the Friday checkout:
Humanoid robots don't make sense to me. If I'm looking at the robot sorting packages all I can think is that a dedicated machine can do it cheaper, more reliably and with a plug instead of a battery. In many cases, designs have compromises to accomodate production by humans, a dedicated machine can overcome these compromises, a humanoid cannot.
So why are companies betting on humanoid robots?

Je kunt op deze kaart in ieder geval duidelijk zien waar terpen in de toekomst niet nodig zullen zijn. #klimaat
De ArcheoloogUit onderzoek van Wageningen University & Research (WUR) blijkt dat #Nederland minstens 8922 #terpen kent. Dat zijn er veel meer dan de 3000 tot 4000 die de onderzoekers verwachtten. #Archeologisch is hiervan hoogstens 10 procent onderzocht. Noord-Nederland staat bekend om zijn vele terpen, maar ook langs rivieren en in polders zijn er talloze te vinden. (Kaartje: WUR)

@spacelizard you could alsof look for unique events and use existing technologies for that specific case, e.g. something to observe the next leonids outburst.
I can't recall whichmission it was, but I think I heard of another smallsat astronomy mission that could do longer term observations because of its low cost. Not as detailed as the big telescopes, but a larger observation window can add a lot of knowledge.
Anthony HortonThere's an interesting workshop taking place later this year. Blue Horizons 2026 is calling for teams to develop and present concepts for a (small) Australian space telescope that could potentially be built using NCRIS astronomy infrastructure funding (OK, very small then).

Volgens het oude recept. In november 2025 werd de overname bekend. Toen was het te vroeg iets te doen. Dus deed men niets. En nu zeggen ze dat het te laat is om nog iets te doen. Klassieke truc die al in Yes Minister aangeraden werd.
@nomadskateboarding @ScottEdelman doesn't seem to be in there:
