This lighthouse is SO UNIQUE! It's called Þrídrangar, which means "three rock pillars". It is located 4.5 miles (7.2 kilometres) off the southwest coast of Iceland, in the archipelago of Vestmannaeyjar, often described as the most isolated lighthouse in the world. The lighthouse was built there in 1939.

It's such a INCREDIBLE location for a lighthouse, perched on a rock in Iceland's wild surf. Originally constructed and accessible only by scaling the rock on which it is situated, it is now accessible by helicopter since the construction of a helipad.

Shoutout to @vincent for developing https://bird.makeup. Things are slow now because of the massive influx in users, but having any Twitter account’s tweets viewable within the fediverse is great. Bridging the gap until those accounts are posting directly here is awesome.

Outside of professional athletes (the tails, maxima), age seems to be just noise.
Standard Extreme Value Theory: the extrema has a different distribution than the average. In competitions w/professional athletes we observe the maxima. In real life, noise around an average.

Oh look, is that a catastrophic Twitter failure? How surprising and not at all the inevitable consequence of firing nearly everyone who knows how to keep the site up or even what all of the bits do.

@vincent
thy for giving us a simple bridge
It really enlightens my day to have @terriblemaps here!
