i nerd sniped myself tonight and i imagine the NSA operative who is assigned to me is very confused by the increasingly erratic and frustrated google searches for HOW DO I CALCULATE THE MOON WHERE IS THE MOON
-
astronomy math is out of this fucking world btw like want to know where the moon is? great buckle up you're in for a few hundred years of bizarre hacks and lots of exciting questions like "wait, why are they using the julian calendar?"
in a way magpie math is kinda refreshing, like imagine not throwing everything away every few years because of industry fads

@aeva I think part of it is we stopped trying to guess based on date and moved to measurements and short term extrapolation

@aeva wait, is it your fault that we’re losing the moon in however many millions of years?

ok so back to the moon thing, i found another resource and i think i understand the why behind the asinine coordinate systems a little better but it also glosses over the math so it's kinda useless at the same time. i'm tempted to just make shit up and move on, but it would bother me that the function was wrong if i did that
@aeva This is why we threw our hands up and said, just use what's already been done. We outsource "where are the space things" to NAIF SPICE: https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/aboutspice.html (there's also the rust rewrite, ANISE, but we don't trust that at my place of work yet)

@c0dec0dec0de it might not be!

@squirrelbaffler it occurred to me that this is one of those situations where one would probably normally use a library, but the problem is I need to prioritize speed over accuracy because it's repeatedly invoked in a real time audio thread, a use case which i'd not expect to be shared by serious scientific or industrial use cases

I warn you though, if I see the moon is broken tonight, I'll be complaining to you about it.

@CliftonR I will happily accept moon-related bug reports

Riciclo della plastica, le imprese italiane: «Non siamo in grado di proseguire»
«L’industria privata del riciclo, a seguito di una serie di congiunture negative, non è più in condizione di proseguire le attività». Questa è la denuncia che Assorimap, l’associazione nazionale riciclatori e rigeneratori di materie plastiche aderente a Confimi Industria, ha portato all’attenzione del ministro dell’Ambiente Gilberto Pichetto Fratin in una lettera. La filiera rischia il collasso.
Da anni le imprese del riciclo meccanico delle plastiche denunciano la crisi.
La missiva lamenta «un’assenza di provvedimenti di supporto, a differenza di quello che accade in altri Paesi come Francia e Spagna».

mcc@mastodon.social to answer your question I believe it is Ryan Barrett's personal account.

@julian uuhhh well you may have just found a bug in Tusky

@TheMax È il motivo per cui è bene selezionare per affinità d'interessi l'istanza a cui t'iscrivi. Per quanto ho visto, ritengo che Poliversity possa fare al caso tuo.
Nulla ti vieta comunque di esplorare direttamente da browser le timeline pubbliche delle istanze che t'incuriosiscano, e di "obbligare" Poliversity a visualizzare post e account non ancora contattati copiandone l'URL nella casella di ricerca. Seguendo poi tali account, li renderai visibili in futuro anche a me in timeline federata.
Esiste certamente una moltitudine di account ancora sconosciuti a Poliversity perché nessuno da qui li ha mai contattati. Puoi dare il tuo contributo arricchendo così anche la mia esperienza.

mcc@mastodon.social are you looking for examples of users out in the wild that do it?
@snarfed.org@snarfed.org is my example I can think of offhand. It doesn't even work with NodeBB uh oh heh
