Millions in federal funds awarded to bike, pedestrian trails across North Texas
“These funded improvements will connect people who choose walking and bicycling as modes of transportation to schools, transit services and major hubs of employment in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.”

Well that's a dangerous discovery for me.

Wicklow, the developer of the #PeerTube mobile application, has written a nice blog post detailing his technical choices (#Flutter, #Dart, dependencies, etc.).

What's next now that DART dodged bill to slash funds
“Over the last 12 months we witnessed a full blaze, horrible tone, horrible conversations especially if you look at the history of our region on transportation over the last four decades,” Morris said. “I've never witnessed anything like this.”

Last night I thought I'd check out Flutter/Dart and after a few hours of playing around this ugly-ass prototype of an Android client for @readeck fell out. I know there's already one in the making but that's about as functional as mine so I think I might just keep working on it (unless I get bored) and maybe even finish it.

lol, this started out with me thinking this will just be a simple find/replace...let's just say I was wrong.
Totally worth it though for the learning and for the result.
WAS Welcomes back Nancy Chabot, Planetary Chief Scientist at JPL for a follow up talk April 15th on the results from DART, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test. The classroom will be closed and the talk will be a webinar on Zoom and streamed on our YouTube channel. https://ow.ly/JgAK50VtSwR
Why haven't most developers adopted BDD (Behavior-Driven Development) for their tests?
The #Hera spacecraft's final destination is the binary asteroid system Didymos, where #NASA's #DART spacecraft had previously collided, giving scientists the opportunity to study the deflection of the asteroid's orbit.
Tomorrow, Mar 12, 2025, Hera will perform a flyby of #Mars, to shift the spacecraft’s trajectory, shortening its trip by months and saving substantial fuel.
There will be live coverage. More here:

Rowlett leaders have a 'change of heart' over DART funding cuts
“DATA applauds the City of Rowlett for this strong show of support for DART. We are grateful to the city councilmembers for their willingness to reconsider their prior resolution after outreach from DART and DART-riding citizens of Rowlett, and we hope that the other cities that adopted similar resolutions last year follow Rowlett’s lead.”

DART funding cut could risk 2026 World Cup transit plans
“Our transit plan is at risk if anything happens between now and the delivery of that 18 months from now, which could have significant consequences to the commitments we've made for that particular plan moving forward.”

Potenziell gefährlicher Asteroid 2024 YR₄: Raumfahrtkonzern OHB prüft Abwehrplan
2032 könnte 2024 YR₄ auf der Erde einschlagen, vorher kommt er noch einmal hier vorbei. Das wäre der beste Zeitpunkt für eine Abwehrmission, meint man bei OHB.
we over here discovering awful things about the #dart programming language.
You may have been hearing about newly discovered 2024 YR4, which currently has a 2.3% chance of colliding with the Earth in 2032. In April we welcome back Nancy Chabot, Planetary Chief Scientist at JPL from the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) to our lecture series who will discuss this with us. Until then, watch Scott Manley's "Asteroid Impact In 2032 - What Are The Chances? What Can We Do?" https://youtu.be/Esk1hg2knno?si=mcm3vkhe5ek6diVy

'Obvious subversion': Public outcry over DART director's lobbying ties to Uber
"There's an obvious subversion of DART's rail and bus system. So many people in DFW have spent years relying on DART to get around whenever obtaining a personal vehicle was unfeasible. It can easily accommodate low-income families and individuals, disabled citizens."
