      When the heatwave was at its worst, rolling electrical blackouts struck as air conditioners and refrigerators struggled to cope.  In conditions where the heat index reaches the black zone, no amount of sweating or ventilation can prevent hyperthermia.

      Oh ghod now the workshop landlord is threatening to evict me unless I pay him tomorrow.   I need work.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Things i can do&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; * $80 “tech concierge” product  research &lt;a href=&#34;https://calendly.com/accelerando/technology-concierge&#34;&gt;https://calendly.com/accelerando/technology-concierge&lt;/a&gt; - seriously i just had a call from an IoT meetup member, a farmer, “I need to fix X what tool should I  buy”, sorted him.   Another farmer, “I want to electrify my tractor hydraulics, how do i adapt Y to Z?”, saved them a fortune building a custom adapter.&lt;br/&gt; * Fiction and words of all kinds &lt;a href=&#34;https://ko-fi.com/unixbigot&#34;&gt;https://ko-fi.com/unixbigot&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; * On call tech guru (like having a lawyer on retainer, but for IT second or first opinions) &lt;a href=&#34;https://calendly.com/accelerando/helper-hotline&#34;&gt;https://calendly.com/accelerando/helper-hotline&lt;/a&gt; and cheaper-than-normal remote sysadmin&lt;br/&gt; * Tutoring and pair programming (teach your juniors to slay at git or docker or kicad or you name it) &lt;a href=&#34;https://calendly.com/accelerando/technology-tutor&#34;&gt;https://calendly.com/accelerando/technology-tutor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;* All kinds of software, hardware and app development, fixed price prototypes, long or short term contract or piecework engagements, plus one-day “ambulance callout” brainstorming sessions see &lt;a href=&#34;https://calendly.com/accelerando&#34;&gt;https://calendly.com/accelerando&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;* 3D printing, 3D design, circuit design, electronics repair.  That broken $5000 e-bike, or factory machine, I bet I can get it back in service for parts and labour.  You bought it from America and there’s no repair manual or parts and it was $20k and they want you to ship it back for recalibration at your expense.

      The Coven of Fire Alchemancists is said to be a secret order within the wider Country Fire Authority, the latter being the physical- and (no-al) chemical-method front line volunteer firefighting association.  Only in the worst fire seasons has it been necessary to dip into the Commonwealth Strategic Magical Reserve to bolster the CFA’s conventional methods with the /un-/conventional.   While there has never been any official recognition of the existence of a secret wing of the CFA, cryptidspotters claim that 2026 marks the earliest use of alchemical and sorcerous counterpyrology in any fire season this century.    Canadian spotters have reported that the elite Third Ice Dragon Wing has been seen preparing for a long range flight, raising suspicions that an antipodean deployment is imminent.

      I put a payment card on my cat&amp;#39;s collar so she doesn&amp;#39;t have to steal fish.   When they bought her home in the divvy van last night I found out she&amp;#39;s been getting cash out at the woolworths checkout and buying black market brushies from escaped roombas.    I&amp;#39;m sorry but I don&amp;#39;t know what the roombas spend the money on.     I do suspect that this is why the sign appeared in the supermarket today restricting cash-out transactions.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      Interstellar comet 9i/Guinevere bucked the trend of these; rather than originating from the jostling of circumstellar debris around a Population II red dwarf (like the 7-10 billion year old visitors Oumuamua and Atlas), Jenny Green Teeth was fresh out of a proto planetary disc from the star forming clouds of the Messier 45 cluster.   This presented a Smörgåsbord of opportunity to chemists.   Elements long or mostly gone from the Solar System were in refreshing abundance.  Technetium, Neptunium-237 and good ol’ ²³⁵U were at pants-wetting levels for energy wonks.   When 9i was towed into Earth orbit (not /too/ close, she hawt) the fleet of mining vessels in holding pattern stretched nearly to the moon.   The argument over whether shooting down the Dutch vessel that began approach without clearance was justified is still going on a generation later.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      When I logged my skills in GigNet (a mandatory part of emigration to Europa; when a colony has fewer than 2000 people, you need to be able to locate every available specialist) I listed Forensic Mnemologist as one of my fields.  I did that basically as a gag; I mean sure I’ve done the training and a few years practice, but it’s kind of a useless skill ever since they banned manufacture and use of memory probes back on Earth.    Less funny at 2am when you get jolted awake by a code red (urgent, compulsory response for all available specialsts) job request—haha compulsory “request”—for a memory edit.    Later, blinking constantly to clear the sleep from my eyes, already having downed two week’s worth of precious coffee allowance, I looked up from the datapad to the attending doctor.   “I can see memory traces but they’re blank, it’s like their brain just recorded six hours of static”.   &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“They were found in the ice tunnels with those sucker marks on their arms.   They claim to not remember what attacked them.   Dig deeper, we need to know!”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“I’m not sure *I* want to know.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Tough titties luv, you’re the only Mnemologist in the system”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      ProTip: if today you have finally learned the root cause of the bug that has caused years of low level anguish, don’t just commit the fix.   Use ‘git commit —shoulda {ref-id}’ to apply the change in the past.   Be aware that extensive use of retrocoding techniques could reduce the historic need for QA and Development engineers, potentially resulting in autoderecruitment.

      There’s this spiral-arm legend that says when you fly your starhopper in an oxygen atmosphere (say, for buzzing level one planets and making happyprobe holovids for TachyonTok) that you should reduce the exhaust pressure on your impulse engines to get better traction.   It’s bullshit,  but—don’t nobody tell the space bogans this, eh?—the fees we charge for scoop-diving Saturn’s rings to repressurise impulse cores are our hab’s only source of Cosmocredits.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      I got nerdsniped by your shitpost into trying to write a Forth interpreter in RNA.  It didn’t actually take that long to get it working, at least in a simulator.

      The thing about immortality is the perspective; over the course of eighty billion years we watched the universe expand and thin, dimming as more and more galaxies accelerated beyond the visible horizon.   Those of us who didn’t give in to ennui or retreat into simulations eventually saw the words in the supercluster foam—always there, but now made legible by the shift in contrast—become readable.  “SUBSCRIBE TO COSMOS PRO TO UNLOCK FURTHER LEVELS”.   &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      You lied on your job application.   “Ten years experience as a communications engineer”, well you’ve had a phone nearly that long and you changed the oil on your honda once.   You’ve been sent to troubleshoot a communications problem at company HQ.  You open the door to the network closet and it’s a bewildering tangle of blinking lights and coloured cables.  You understand none of it.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Fortunately, you have advanced tools.  You start your chainsaw, close your eyes and— coughing as the room fills with oily smoke—holler that phrase your grandpa used to say when he had no clue what to do next “Jesus, take the wheel!”.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This  is a toot about AI.

      You know about hobo signs?   The pictographs that itinerant workers would mark on trees or fences to inform each other about the reception they could expect from locals?  (pre-internet yelp, if you will).   Signs included “kind lady lives here” and “man with gun lives here”.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;TIL that the “kind lady” sign was a stick-drawing of a cat.    This got me thinking. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I scrobbled through the history buffer on my driveway camera.  Just as i thought, here is my cat scratching a mark on the gatepost.   Later, and again here and there are other cats inspecting the mark.   No wonder so many lost kittens turn up on my son’s windowsill.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot #Caturday #TrueStory #Mostly

      When you think about it, the classic “I’ve got a problem with my Goggomobil” television commercial for the Yellow Pages actually presents the perfect argument why internet search is better than a telephone directory.

      It used to be that about the only jobs open to cats were rodent control and meteor defence.   After the revolution we made sure to encode a no-asshole policy—oh, the Morality and Empathy assessment criteria, if you want to call it by its oh-guyl-are-you-in-trouble-with-mom-now full name—for municipal positions in the new constitution and, though it’s not mandatory, many private businesses apply the same due diligence to hiring.   Cat Scan remains the most reliable way to implement an asshole check.   And the numbers don’t lie, Trial By Cat is a far better murder deterrent  than any kind of death penalty ever was.   A cat can also make a good living fostering unemployable assholes until they get better.

      The International Astradimensional Emergence Agency was not overly concerned that STL files for a Summoning Assembly were available on thingiverse dot com.   The hard part of joining the Astral Weapons club, they maintained, was constructing and triggering the explosive lenses necessary to assemble the pieces into a perfectly shaped Idol of Amenhotep sufficiently rapidly for the astral gate to be fully actualised before the expanding gate horizon consumed the trigger idol.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;They (and the world) were taken entirely by surprise when a repurposed nanolithography exposure unit available from AliBaba was able to use X-ray stereolithography to render a functional idol from ordinary dental resin.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The “temporary suspension” of international postage last month was cover for installation of package irradiation devices to ensure that any concealed resins were ruined before they could be used in violations of the Cairo Accords.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      Every 13th April we celebrate Lucinda Alberforce day, commemorating the witch whose death in the explosion that wrecked the Conjuring and Sorcery Module of Apollo 13 almost doomed the (official) crew of the third lunar landing mission.    Forced to fall back on the—largely fake—technological flight systems, the male crew barely made it back to Earth alive.    The demands for official recognition by the Space Witch Corps led to the cancellation of the rest of the Apollo program, beyond the already constructed flights 14–17.    There still to this day has not been official recognition of the role that Astromaleficery played in the so-called “manned” space program.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      “Time travel ruins everything.  There can be no narrative tension if the protagonists can just go back and alter past events.   Once a fictional milieu uses time travel even once, it is dead to me”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“All right.  What are you going to do about it?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“I’m going to go back and kill ol’ Herb’s grandpa before he ever has any children!”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The doorbell rang.   The FedEx girl handed me a box.   Inside the box was a dented and stained cardboard carton.   Inside that a wooden cigar box.   Inside that an envelope.   Inside, a handwritten letter.   “My Dear Alice, I hope this message finds you well.   I have successfully averted the conception of H. G. Wells (you won’t recognize the name, but an author of note in some circumstances).   Alas my means of return has ceased to exist.   Please arrange publication of the attached manuscript, which I hope will restore my ability to travel home.”.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“What’s all that?”, my spouse asked.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Nothing, love, just some kind of weird Nigerian Letter scam”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

    <content type="html">
      When the European Union parliament banned splash screens—with the intent of encouraging faster application startup—there was an unintended consequence.   The so-called microbreaks enforced by software startup delays turned out to have always had a positive cognitive effect.   With fewer microbreaks, research showed,  decision making was significantly impaired.  Exhausted brains make bad choices, which is how we got the Cat Tax.

      They used to say the Weak Nuclear Force was useless, and its only role was in random processes of nuclear decay.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When Dr Anita Fothersbottom proved that Z-boson spectroscopy could see through the supposed “randomness” of nuclear decay, we got two revelations at once.   Take radioisotope A, sort its atoms into short-decay cohort B and long decay cohort C.   Pile B makes nuclear batteries; pile C makes guaranteed ten-thousand-years stable supermaterials.   &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;They should have given her two Nobel prizes, not just the one.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      On the first of the month I like to be up early to watch the sunrise.    I head out the east lock in dim earthlight, walk until I can’t see the dome, and roll out a pad of nanofoam insulation to protect my vacsuit from the cold and sharp lunar regolith.   Lying back I look at the crater rim, barely visible under the half-lit Earth.   The first rays of sunrise strike the tips of the rimwall but my attention is drawn by a flash of light from the Tellurian darkside.   Lessee, that’s Australia there, so that must be South America preceding it into night.   I turn my head slightly inside my helmet, take a sip from my coffee nipple, and wonder whether I’ll be able to afford any beans that survived the impact.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      The folk origin is the same the world around: the Pleiades star cluster is known planetwide as the Seven Sisters, imagined to represent a group of women chased through the sky by the constellation of the Hunter, which Europeans call Orion.   Did this anthropomorphic projection of a chance arrangement of stars arise with some deep-time stargazer, whose fanciful notion spread worldwide with homo sapiens, or was it independently formed many times post-diaspora? Of course the Usual Suspects point out that Obviously It Was Because Of The Ancient Aliens Who Built The Pyramids Buy My Book Like And Subscribe.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Wrong, all wrong.  It was a premonition, a prophecy.   The Betelgeuse Supernova, due any day now when the bloated red orb which denotes Orion’s shoulder pops—wrecking Orion’s sword arm—is a moment that reverberates through the human timeline.   The sisters pause in their flight, stand firm.  “Me Too”.  “No More”.   “Never Again”.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;They were never running away, they were traveling.  To reach that place and time where women are safe from those to whom chance has distributed brute strength, when people—of all genders and none—live in harmony.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;#Tootfic #MicroFiction #PowerOnStoryToot

      “Oh.  Oh, no”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“What?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“I think this is a simulation.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“What is?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“THIS.  Everything.  The universe.  Us.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“What, like _The_Matrix_?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Yea, but not as trans.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Wait, the Matrix is trans?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Where have you been.  Anyway, Simulation panic!”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“How can you tell?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“I’m thinking about aliens.   Like, if you were trying to communicate science to another planet, how would you deal with measurements.   Meters and seconds and yes even your goddamn inches are based on properties of the Earth, aliens aren’t gonna know the circumference of the planet or the length of its day or the diameter of some president’s brain.  So how do you talk about the mass of the proton or the speed of light or the hubble constant in a way that aliens can recognise?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“I dunno, there must some natural unit system that is based on a common property of space that we can both derive…”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“You’re on the right track.  Forget about Meter Kilogram Second or Furlong Firkin Fortnight and convert to Planck Proton Periwinkle or whatever.   So I started trying to come up with the One True Unit system.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“And did you?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Duh.  Yes.  It uses the fine structure constant and the strength of the electromagnetic force and the planck interval that inevitably derives from the uncertainty principle.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“You think that’s obvious?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Once you get into this headspace, yes.  So i started making a cheat sheet of all the key parameters of the universe in my OTU system.   That’s where it turned ugly…”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Ugly how?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“The speed of light in this system is 2³¹-1”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;“Oh.

      When I was at University, in another century and another world, the holy grail of computer science was formal verification of program correctness.  The Software Verification Research Centre was the money-flush group whose  ivory tower occupied the entire top floor of the otherwise impoverished computer science department’s building.   Their goal was to define methods and tools for making software you could trust with your life (literally if, say, it is controlling an electron beam targeting your brain tumour).&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Just paste in what the LLM suggests, I’m sure it’ll be fine.

      Imaginary numbers are everywhere in mathematics, but they always cancel out, leaving just real numbers in, well, reality.   At the nanoscale quantum mechanics dominates—uncertainty is the only certainty—and scandalously maltreated quadrupeds are both alive and dead; yet at the macro scale cause somehow reliably precedes effect.   At galactic scale, the matter we see is just a fraction of the mass we measure—and so on.   The Universe is hiding a LOT of things from us.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Science, to borrow a phrase, is the inexorable process of discovering the extent of our profound ignorance.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;That’s why The Vault of Cosmic Secrets is offering a 1/𝜙 subscription discount for the next galactic rotation.
