For Android users, all of these images can also be browsed via my unofficial app: MarsFeed! A lot of sweat and tears have gone into making it - and I am personally super proud of it! It's a lot easier to use (and much faster) than the official NASA website.

Hey there Perseverance fans on Android! I have a shameless plug for you... I've recently rewritten from the ground-up my app MarsFeed using the latest Material Design libraries and patterns.

I wanted an app that notified me of new images posted by NASA, but I also wanted it to feel like a first class citizen on my Android device. I couldn't find one that checked all those boxes... So I made one!

It's entirely free, so check it out if this sounds like something of interest to you! If not, absolutely no worries! 😄

Not just you! I'm looking for the link as well, and looks like it's just an image.

That's honor system, for sure. OpenAI has promised that their bots will honor this line in robots.txt. But unless these companies have implemented some detect-and-block method on their own, there is nothing physically stopping the bots from gathering data anyway.

I think I've learned to get less attached to opinionated terminology in code and database design because I see it happen all the time where the usage of the value/field/thing can evolve naturally over time as the business needs evolve. And refactoring field names (as an example) from UI to database is often a painful exercise, not without significant regression risks. (Depending on the size and complexity of your systems, of course)

So while I totally agree with you and others that ideally naming would be consistent throughout, my real world experience with the issue has taught me that this isn't the hill I die on.

My 2 cents from 10 years experience in the industry.

Same here. I'm a Tech Lead right now, but I still live in the code. I see myself as on-trajectory to Architect. I have no direct-reports or any of the responsibilities they go with direct-reports. That role is called a Team Lead at my company (which is on-trajectory for management). I stay at from that stuff like the plague 🤮
