Bananas and random numbers, Help Desk to anti-tank missiles, Web5, Silicon Photonics and more!
| STORY | BUT WHY? |

| Been there, done that | Really cool CLI tool, dude |
| Jack Dorsey’s TBD Presents Bitcoin-Based Decentralized Web5 | Dag it! I had the Web5 idea first! |
| Ukrainian Troops Have Nobody To Call To Troubleshoot Their Javelin Missiles | Worst tech support job ever. |

| Robot Cooking With Stir-Fry: Bimanual Non-Prehensile Manipulation of Semi-Fluid Objects | We're going to end up with robots in the kitchen, and it's going to happen while nobody is looking. I'm seeing a lot of separate skills. Expect that to continue and slowly integrate until we get something like the roomba or ipod |
| Generating true random numbers from bananas | Yes, yes. Nobody talks about the bananas, do they? Wonder why that is? |
