The eyewall of Typhoon Champi just missed Guam, but surely some major storm surge occurred nonetheless. And a square eye… the most frightening of eyewall shapes.
Typhoon Champi (29W): Rapidly Intensified to Category 4 (140 MPH)
Valid as of 1:12 AM ChST on Sunday, October 18, 2026

Champi forecast to pass barely south of Guam with winds of 150 mph.

Problem solving is the core job, everything else is just specialization of problem solving
Our job is to solve problems, not write code

Incredible findings from the OSIRIS-REx mission! Always exciting to be reminded how early we are in the timeline of human discovery of our universe.
BREAKING: Sugars essential for life have been found in pristine asteroid Bennu samples collected by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. Combined with previous detections of amino acids and nucleobases, we see that life’s ingredients were widespread throughout the solar system: go.nasa.gov/48MTu9i

Congrats to the new class of @NASA astronaut candidates--especially @annawmenon one of the most amazing people I know. A former NASA biomedical engineer, @SpaceX Mission Director, one of two women astronauts to have already flown farther in to space than anyone before, a rockstar tro_anil and a pioneer who will help lead America’s space program into the future 🇺🇸

It’s always a bummer to scrub a @NASA Crew launch, but nothing is more important than safety and reliability. We only will fly when it’s safe!

Nonetheless, I indeed yell at a cloud today
