Hm. I'm weird about food lately. I had Pizza for dinner. Am hungry again but brain says too soon for more pizza and the sight/smell of it is currently unappealing. Is this a #spectrum thing?

I feel like it might be.

What is autism? Can you tell for sure if someone is on the #spectrum? And are the examples we see in the media an accurate representation of #autistic individuals? "I believe part of the reason it took me 31 years to discover I’m autistic is that I didn’t have an accurate understanding of what autism REALLY is."

Major Spectrum phone outage in the Texas valley (going on 2nd day). Spectrum support says 3rd party WindStream fiber line was “catastrophically” cut, affecting backbone VOIP services. No ETR. Inbound callers get “call cannot be completed at this time.” message. Outbound calls still work. Outage mainly affects calls originating from cell phones. #spectrum #spectrumoutage

Echoes of Identity: Kripke's Insight on the Linguistic Evolution of Disability and Neurodiversity Labels

Saul Kripke's "Naming and Necessity" provides a profound framework for this exploration, arguing that names carry the essence of the objects or concepts they represent. This philosophy becomes particularly significant when we examine the evolution of labels in the context of disability and neurodiversity.

I want to write a story about #SocialMedia called The #Autistic #Coffeeshop.

Apologies to my brethren on the #spectrum, but I think it’s pretty accurate.

Social Media is a fairly lawless place peppered with disinformation and political and fiscal schemers looking for the next dupe. And porn sales. I’m thinking of #Xitter for example.

But it’s also the minds and feelings of modern humanity. More like #Mastodon.

The Gender Spectrum

A transgender woman is a person who was assigned male at birth based on her anatomy but who identifies as a woman.

A cisgender woman is a person who was assigned female at birth based on her anatomy and who also identifies as a woman.

A nonbinary person is someone who identifies as neither completely female nor completely male. Such an individual may identify with both genders or neither gender, or they may be gender fluid, meaning their gender fluctuates between female and male.

A transgender man is a person who was assigned female at birth based on his anatomy but who identifies as a man.

A cisgender man is a person who was assigned male at birth based on his anatomy and who also identifies as a man.

A really gorgeous first light spectrum of the Planetary Nebula NGC 7027, the Jewel Bug Nebula, from the IGRINS-2 instrument on NOIRLab's Gemini North Observatory.

The bright lines come from gas in the nebula that only emits at very specific wavelengths of light. They have a V-shape because of NGC 7027’s expanding gas bubble, with some gas moving towards us and some gas moving away from us along our line of sight.

More: https://noirlab.edu/public/news/noirlab2331/?lang

#astronomy #space #Spectrum #nebula

IGRINS-2 First Light, Spectrum of Planetary Nebula NGC 7027. The image is split into three panels, one panel on the left shows a Hubble WFC3 image of a nebula. The two panels on the right show a rainbow-colored spectrum.

Hubble image: A nebula with a pink and blue pillow-shaped structure at a 45-degree angle in the middle, surrounded by concentric waves of blue gas, on a black star-filled background. The pillow-shaped structure has vein-like filaments of dark red gas and dust and a small bright star in the middle. A small, white rectangular box is superimposed on the central structure, to the bottom left of the central star, marking the position of the slit used to make the spectra in the two right boxes.

Gemini North/IGRINS-2
Top box: H band, 1.49 to 1.80 microns. A square box is filled with horizontal lines which curve downward slightly. They form a gradient of colors, from purple at the top, to blue, to green on the bottom. Superimposed on the colored lines are v-shaped bright lines and straight black lines. Some of the lines are sharp, while others are fuzzy. Some are very bright or dark, while others are relatively faint.

Bottom box: K band, 1.93 to 2.46 microns. Similar to the box above, horizontal lines form a gradient of colors from green at the top to yellow, to red at the bottom. There are also v-shaped bright lines and straight dark lines.

Colors seen in here represent chromatic order of near-infrared light observed by IGRINS-2; not colors in visible light

So, my day went sideways thanks to our local ISP #Spectrum technician. Client sets up an upgrade to their service. The tech looks at the network gear, and clearly decides: "Nope - not touching that!" So instead of swapping out the old modem with the new one (it was DEAD center on the wall), he decides to set the cable modem and router by themselves on a nearby shelf. But he needs power - so he unplugs the UPS from the only outlet, and... plugs the UPS *INTO ITSELF* #MSP #InfoTech #ISP #SysAdmin

I wonder how long Spectrum/ Charter/ TWC/ TPTB are going to keep the networking down *this* time. They brought it back up long enough to tell me they'd fixed it, and it then immediately went back out. They've predicted 2 hour outages each time. 🤬

If you're in the area & are having issues, please complain. It'll keep me from doing stupid things. It might even get service back sooner....

I find their discussion on what precisely is the #horror in MR James’ #stories very illuminating (and fun). They’re really onto something when they discuss #MRJames and the all male, cloistered and academic context of the stories as having strong repressed homosexuality vibes, veering into #incel territory, but I think of James more in terms of a-sexuality, of someone on the #acearo #spectrum (esp.

#Planck knew the #formula before he started.

Using brilliantly precise experimental work, he recognized the black body #spectrum had a shape he could explain mathematically. It required what we would now call #quantization, a distribution over distinct states. In one evening, he found a way to derive that formula from the #physics

It was not a matter of quantizing and finding it worked; quite the reverse. The analysis did in fact start from the conclusion.

I miss the joy and wonder of using a computer for the first time.

I loved my ZX81 and then spectrum.

Whilst my friends were playing games on it. I taught myself to program it, first in ZX Basic and then into Machine Code.

Lost whole weekends just coding away... good times.

#spectrum #zx81 #sinclair #computing #retrocomputing

The image shows a vintage ZX81 computer setup. There's an old white CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) monitor with rounded corners displaying a simple game with a score on the screen. The monitor sits next to a black keyboard with rectangular keys. Beside the keyboard is an older-style cassette player used for loading software. Additionally, there's a spiral-bound manual with some graphics on its cover. The whole setup gives a sense of computing from the late 1970s to early 1980s.

For #SciArtSeptember Day 7: indigo a little story of analogy & bias in the most famous physicist of all. My lino block print is inspired by the earliest colour wheel, made by Isaac Newton. When he first split white light in 1665 into the rainbow spectrum of colours, he named & described what he saw as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet (often denoted ROY G BIV).

🧵1/n
#sciArt #histstm #linocut #printmaking #colour #music #spectrum #Newton #physics #light #MastoArt

Newton’s colour wheel: he displayed the colours Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet on a circle, and labelled the spokes of the cycle like the notes of a scale, the Dorian mode starting with D with no sharps or flats. He added orange and indigo where half steps occur (between E and F and B and C respectively). He labelled them in Latin: Rubeus, Aureus, Flavus, Viridous, Caeruleus, Indicus and Violaceus. I have added a musical stave and notes in a ring around the circle.

The Walt Disney Company has removed their programming from Spectrum which creates hardship for our customers. We offered Disney a fair deal, yet they are demanding an excessive increase. They also want to limit our ability to provide greater customer choice in programming packages forcing you to take and pay for channels you may not want. Spectrum is on your side and fighting to keep costs down while protecting and maximizing customer choice. The rising cost of programming is the single greatest factor in higher cable TV prices, and we are fighting hard to hold the line on programming rates imposed on us by companies like Disney. We apologize for the inconvenience. We understand how important it is to be able to access your programming content and have solutions for you.

@internet_ginger I am on the #spectrum myself so I've been underestimated all of my life. I've learned to embrace the status of being underestimated because it makes the bar for success low. I use the #neurotypicals behavior towards me to my advantage.

Your use of the word "infantilized" is quite on target. Ironically, I see more infantile behavior of users in front of computers. I do IT support for a living and it's amazing how I hear adults whine like 5 year olds. I've learned to sit in silence, ignore them, and wait until they finish their temper tantrum. It doesn't go over well most of the time because they want me to be actively sympathetic. It's a good thing I am a state employee and all they can do is whine but when push comes to shove the problem is solved and that is all that really matters.

Yeah, I am jaded in my old age.

“The Skye Bridge (Scottish Gaelic: Drochaid an Eilein Sgitheanaich) is a road bridge over Loch Alsh, Scotland, connecting the Isle of Skye to the island of Eilean Bàn. The name is also used for the whole Skye Crossing, which further connects Eilean Bàn to the mainland across the Carrich Viaduct. The crossing forms part of the A87.”

This was my view from the bridge as I passed over it last evening on my way home.

@paularmstrong Exactly. The team around Adobe's #Spectrum libraries must have put massive amount of work to built them. We built our design system components on the top of aria and stately hooks while taking a lot of inspiration from the architecture as well.
Honestly, we'd never be able to build so concise and feature-full UI library without them. Just looking at the code needed for e.g. Calendar considering also i18n is impressive.
