There’s a wealth of scientific data trapped in data formats that can be tricky to read. The latest entry in my Gentle Introduction to GDAL series explains how to access data in NetCDF, HDF, & GRIB. @robsimmon/a-gentle-introduction-to-gdal-part-8-reading-scientific-data-formats-1a1f70d5388c" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@robsimmon/a-g…

Felt the #earthquake?
Earthquakes in the eastern U.S. are felt over a MUCH bigger area than the West Coast.
Why?
Eastern U.S. has older rocks. They were subject to extreme pressures and temperatures. They’re denser and so shaking travels much farther.

@btjakes oh, shoot. it's a trick from cartonaut, who may be off twitter now. imagine a fish. when you hold it close the scales are large. when you hold it far away the scales are small.

I'm making an iPad app that lets you paint with #ai – and version 1.5 was just approved! 🚀
At some point you gotta ship – and so there were a lot of things I didn't get into version 1.
SageBrush now 20% cheaper per generation✨ Drag and drop images, control quality, and more!

I’ve been beta testing SageBrush by @dreamwieber, iPad app where you can sketch to guide a prompt. It’s a truly satisfying and magical thing. Now available:

Yesterday's eclipse captured in 2 frames about 2 hours apart, from the eyes of DSCOVR's EPIC camera (epic.gsfc.nasa.gov) parked around Lagrange point L1. I've been working a lot with this data recently, project coming soon...

🎂 Today, Doogie Typer is loaded up with Doogie's first entry, written on his 16th birthday in the pilot episode. He would have turned 50 today, just a tad younger than @ActuallyNPH. Happy birthday Doogie.
