@manton Yeah! I loved it too. Did you see they released some really cool official DIY merch? You can download the models of Rocky and Grace and 3D print them at home. There’s also a cute embroidery design. Direct link not possible, unfortunately, but go to the homepage, click Learn More, and scroll down to the heading Explore Project Hail Mary.

Early blogs, like scripting.com, had posts without titles.

@manton Stoked to see so many backup enthusiasts in this thread! Also, remember to run data recovery drills from time to time. While thankfully rare, I’ve had a few customers and friends figuratively crying on my shoulder when they realize the backup they thought they had was missing or incomplete or corrupt. No fun!

I don’t know why, but I’ve got such a soft spot for people who code and create on boats. See also Rek and Devine also known as Hundred Rabbits.
