A new medium needs champions

a new medium needs innovators

and the world remains troubled

You can cede the field to villains, dismiss the medium. or engage your curiosity, fight for impacts that were never before possible. Imagine a world reshaped by your dearest values, scaled with all new tools

When the Lights Go Out, Satellites Are Watching - Benjamin Strick Dark Light Viewer is a new free open source tool […]

I'm keen to hear feedback, how you used it, what you found it useful for and any interesting finds.

I built this to learn better ways to track conflict from space, but there's many more fields, I'm sure.

Find the tool here + more documentation.

1. People are sending me screenshots of their favorite "happy moments." Delightful.

2. Play with the filters. I think it's the most fun part.

3. There's a fun easter egg in the piece. I don't think anyone has found it.

Dammit Kelsey, I come to this thread to chuckle wryly, not to hold back tears of earned poignance.

Years ago on deployment you learned desert is most beautiful at 3am. Your kids are learning it now, as you drive them to see a lunar eclipse beyond the distracting glare of city lights. They're grumpy now, but thermos hot chocolate will soothe, and this memory will reach the next century.

Sizing chaos The inter-generational struggle to find clothes that fit more than a tiny portion of women

I’m so excited to be publishing my first-ever visual essay with @puddingviz.bsky.social:

pudding.cool/2026/02/wome...

It brings together so many of my recent interests β€” research, coding, design, and sewing β€” on a topic that won’t leave me alone: the chaos of women’s clothing sizes.

Opinion | The A.I. Disruption We’ve Been Waiting for Has Arrived

Feeling very seen by @ftrain.bsky.social today.
