Patch of crossed stitch embroidery. The patches on a staggered grid of woven fabric with the top half of the Xs stitched.

#Embroidery with algorithms: I thought I’d try a staggered cross stitch with an algorithm I call “Buds & Vines” to make this patch on my scrappy purple pants. I’m using the hexagonal weave in the fabric as the grid to help me place my cross stitches, with one X over each hexagon. #generative

The image shows a circular arrangement of six flower-like shapes with 21st Century Pattern Blocks, leaving an empty, flower-shaped space in the center. Each flower has a central yellow hexagon, surrounded by six red trapezoids, six green triangles and six pink triangles.

Pattern block play! #21CenturyPB #iTeachMath

Ego Death, the new visual album by @thejazzemu.bsky.social, is phenomenal. I can't believe I cried during a song about a funky tie. Some excellent cameos as well. Get it in your eyes and ears.

#genuary30 Prompt: Not a Bug But a Feature

Trying to refactor the flock evolution so that the entities can continuously grow with new parameters for the size and the intervall of sizes that are prey.

The resulting Gigantism is definitely not a bug.

Fur was a mistake anyway, chitinous exoskeleton is enough to keep anyone warm.

This image of the Helix Nebula from the ground-based Visible and Infrared Telescope for Astronomy (left) shows the full view of the planetary nebula, with boxes highlighting Webb’s field of view (right). The new image of a portion of the Helix Nebula from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope highlights comet-like knots, fierce stellar winds, and layers of gas shed off by a dying star interacting with its surrounding environment.

A breathtaking look at a dying star. This new image of the Helix Nebula is just in from JWST.

We've never seen this level of detail, as the star's remains stream back out to interstellar space. Our Sun will look something like this 7 billion years from now. 🧪🔭

Låter spännande, jag börjar med Adjutanternas hemlighet genast!

A sphere, with one meridian coloured red and a nearby meridian coloured blue. The separation between them at the equator is labelled s(0), while the separation a distance d up from the equator is labelled s(d).

Gravity is the curvature of spacetime. So, how curved is the spacetime we are in right now?

Let’s start by looking at the effect of curvature in a very simple situation. Two meridians on a sphere, like the red and blue ones in the diagram, will come together and move apart …

Well played!

Thanks for the work, i had some very rewarding experience using it
