- Reposted by Aaron HarrisIt’s too late to order things from China, but you have about two weeks to get stuff from local stores before the empty shelves start hitting. And they will, regardless of if he backs down on tariffs or not, because just in time supply chains have some lead time built into them

- Reposted by Aaron HarrisI worry that the focus on NOAA's weather predicting value is ignoring the millions of other ways NOAA researchers enrich communities and local economies. There are no oysters without NOAA. There are no blue crabs without NOAA. NOAA trains teachers. NOAA is the lifeblood of coastal communities.

- Proton is blocking people who comment on their posts and are critical of their CEO. LOL, but also LMAO.
- Reposted by Aaron HarrisThe U.S. #NationalWeatherService, housed within #NOAA, is a truly world-class meteorological predictive service, perhaps singularly so. It costs only ~$3/yr per taxpayer, & yields ~10:1 return on investment--saving economy 10s-100s of billions, not to mention thousands of lives.

- For fuck's sake @proton.me . I have my own domain, and can roll my own so I'm out. What is the common person supposed to do when even the privacy oriented companies are kissing the ring? Tech is completely fucked.

- Reposted by Aaron HarrisLet's talk about highway hypnosis, now called "driving without attention mode" (DWAM) in the literature. It results from a human behavior called "automaticity". The human brain is capable of performing familiar learned actions without a high level of conscious awareness. Who hasn't zoned out...

- Reposted by Aaron HarrisI have also now created my first "starter pack" which recommends 150 people and three good feeds. I didn't pick the 150 people all that carefully, but just went through my list of people I follow and chose the maximum number I could from folks who I regularly interact with. go.bsky.app/QKm8yFPat://did:plc:cak4klqoj3bqgk5rj6b4f5do/app.bsky.graph.starterpack/3lacqjfw3vt2v

- Reposted by Aaron HarrisA reminder to those new folks, this place basically ran off the founder. He deleted his account and hasn't been back. That should be all you need to know about the culture here.
- Folks Jack Dorsey has zero to do with Bluesky. Early on he was spouting his usual bullshit about unmoderated platforms and the users chased him off the site. (He doesn’t believe in moderation but can’t handle getting yelled at.) Not long after that he quit the board and washed his hands of the site.
- Reposted by Aaron HarrisAt the moment, it is a somewhat tedious/manual process to get the IEMBots spun up here and I am still working out the quirks of this service. But the bots are coming, we'll see how this goes. ie @spc.weather.im
- Reposted by Aaron HarrisMy favorite ADHD tip: OHIO: Only Hold It Once If you pick something up, finish the task for it. Go get the mail? Go through it right away. Picking up some laundry, put it away now. Etc. If I don’t do it immediately, I will likely forget it exists altogether.
- Reposted by Aaron HarrisOnce again: DST doesn’t solve the problem of going to/from work in the dark. Instead, when days get shorter in the fall, we should just shorten the workday by an hour. Then in spring, when we start getting more daylight again, we can shorten the workday by another hour.
- I gotta say, the Bluesky web app is way better than the Threads web app. My iPad chokes on both the Threads app and web app, but the Bluesky web app is actually usable.
