  @metin@graphics.social It's a nice idea, but in its current form, it draws a lot more attention to the ads (at least when they're bright enough) 😂 Maybe the ads could be replaced with fine art 🤔

  @exocomics@mastodon.world That's so on point 😂

  @strigga_ @malteengeler That's exactly why IT departments with a sense of responsibility should host this on their own infrastructure. Open-source software such as OpenStack (on which the Schwartz group's entire cloud infrastructure runs btw) makes this possible and straightforward.

  @metin @proscience Don't we already have something like this? I think they're called "Starship" and "Blue Origin". But they're not shaped like a foot, they're shaped like... another part of the body 😏

  @proscience I see what you mean. But people who have never done anything practical or useful in their lives and have always relied on money don't seem like much of a threat to me 😉 @metin

  @proscience @metin Can't we just give them a little kick? Hard enough to exceed Earth's escape velocity and make it to Mars?

  @metin Great find, Metin! I looked through the table of contents and it looks very useful 👍 Gaining knowledge of math and computer science concepts early on is extremely helpful, as these skills are required before the relevant courses begin, which can take months or even years. My university offered special courses in both subjects in the first semester, and I'm extremely glad they introduced them shortly before I started. It's good to have a well-designed book that everyone can use!
