Since my tweet about Jeff Bezos, I've been getting a lot of replies such as these. "Where do these dress rules come from?" "When do they change?"
These are very good questions, so let me answer them. 🧵

As it happens, I'm reading a 1969 NASA report that highlights the value of people seeing people participating in space. They don't need to be astronauts. It's still humans behind robotic missions. Space is still a human endeavour.

I guess I should do an introduction sometime. I'm Dave and I spend a fair bit of time in Twitch Music, vibing in chat or modding a few streams.
I just like to help. I also do things outside occasionally too. I probably won't post a lot, but who knows what's in the future.
