@ScreechySayWha I am! thanks for thinking of me

@DSzymborski How much of the disparity in probabilities between Games 1 and 2 as listed is SP? IE do the numbers change much now that we know Eovaldi is going in game 1?

First ZiPS run for World Series is up. fangraphs.com/standings/play…

@PrasFrancis Pre-2022, I would've said Foo Fighters.

Seems like Taylor and probably Ariana and DuaLipa are coming, but my list for first timers would be something like: Drake, Bad Bunny, and some Indie Rock collaboration - Killers, Strokes, Modest Mouse, maybe a White Stripes reunion? On deck: Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, Lizzo

@AstroAlysa @BenneHolwerda @amannastro @toomanyspectra @adiastra99 The 107 inch at McDonald. Back in 1970. @emsque presents the story excellently in "The Last Stargazers," but summarized nicely here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harlan_J.…

@BenneHolwerda @amannastro @toomanyspectra @adiastra99 I'm sorry, which telescope did someone shoot???

@HADL2015 @CTzenScientist @marckuchner In TESS 10 arcmin is about 30 pixels. The distance from Earth to J0808-6443 is ~101 pc.

@CTzenScientist @silverbergastro @marckuchner I was thinking from the Planet Patrol point of view there... TESS is kinda special XD (Distance of the Peter Pan Disk to us?)

Hey @silverbergastro @marckuchner I was playing with a new tool sent by Sauto and I think I discovered/can confirm a new EW variable star "near" to our original Peter Pan Star 🤔

@ITweetOnDaClock @lonestarball Requires a 40-man move

@lonestarball I think Bradford probably has the edge right noe

If you had to pull someone from the minors up for a spot start, Owen White would probably be your best bet.

@Jobu_2 @TepidP But even that doesn't necessarily work, either--if it did, the Red Sox would probably be in a much better state than they are.

@TepidP If it were me, I’d have taken the Semien (or Seager) money and just moneywhipped tf out of the Rays / Dodgers front office and MiL coaching staffs. But that doesn’t put butts in seats in the short-term

[i have a terrible confession to make. shhhhhhh. i worry they're doing the same thing again. but this time with pitching prospects. but we can bitch about that bridge when we come to it. i...i...i...gotta go now...bye...love you.]

@clapifyoulikeme Will be passing on my thanks!

@clapifyoulikeme As someone adjacent to that crowd: do you think the good doctor would have interest in a review of kosher and/or Israeli wine going into Pesach?

@astro_derek @YoniAstro Same.

@YoniAstro I'm giving one at the end of next month, so I'm shamelessly piggybacking on this thread :)

I'm giving a public talk at the end of the month on the first year's worth of science from JWST. anybody have results they want to plug that didn't necessarily get picked up by the news? looking especially for pretty pictures and things that an uninformed audience can appreciate

Great time at #AAS241 this week! Less great: flight delayed until tomorrow

@RTRFND Happy birthday!

@smsm1 @dereksback @the_transit_guy There's a substantial mountain range in between. Going north follows the rivers, allowing gentler grades and higher speeds.

Next month I am traveling from NYC to Chicago, the 3rd busiest air route in the country, which takes 19.5 hours via Amtrak on a daily train. This is the same distance as Beijing to Shanghai, which takes only 4.3 hours and leaves every 20 minutes. This country can do better.

@holly_holl Otto got briefly inspected earlier

@depeterson61 College baseball, or all of baseball? All of baseball the Spokane Indians' uniforms in Salish win.

Not a better uniform in the sport

@coffeybean2004 @bernard_dat @elleonsordo1 @CJIsAGOAT @JeffPassan @wojespn Isiah and the Knicks?

@bernard_dat @elleonsordo1 @CJIsAGOAT @JeffPassan @wojespn Basically, overrated all time player does a shit job of managing a team, can't really find a super accurate example in NBA terms

Derek Jeter is stepping down as CEO of the Miami Marlins, sources tell ESPN.

@Astro_JRod I'm partial to placing comments in Foxit Reader--free, easy to place comments, and when reviewing comments it's easy to print out the comments on each page as a list, which lets you go through them like a checklist.

Astro Twitter: when giving comments on a paper, what pdf editor do you recommend?

@kellen_lawson Enjoy coming to Goddard! It's a great place to work.

Excited to share that I've accepted a NASA Postdoctoral Program fellowship offer. I'll be heading to GSFC this fall to work on developing improved PSF subtraction techniques & applying them to data from JWST & Subaru to better study circumstellar disks and (embedded) exoplanets.
