critically stagnant spotlight campaigns for today (3/13.)
all campaigns are vetted by the organizers of gaza funds. this site has been vouched for by palestinian bloggers. for full transparency, a list of campaigns is available to view on their site. additionally, if you look at my list of individual campaigns, you will see that i personally trust these campaigns and have donated to them many times.
raghad's family: 9 days since last donation
campaigns in danger of becoming critically stagnant:
mohammed ahmed: 6 days since last donation
yasmin's family: 5 days since last donation
karem al-kahlout: 5 days since last donation
yahia hawajry: 5 days since last donation
ahmed atallah: 5 days since last donation
nada muhaisen: 5 days since last donation
dr. isam: 4 days since last donation
ghada and abdulrahman: 4 days since last donation
this list comprises the majority of my active gaza funds spotlight campaigns. i am actively spotlighting 15 campaigns. one is critically stagnant, and eight more are in danger of becoming critically stagnant.
individual posts for these campaigns are generally ignored, which is why i've moved to using this pinned post instead. it simply takes me too long to queue up a bunch of posts people will just scroll past. please don’t ignore this, you have the opportunity to throw someone a lifeline and do some real good. even if you don’t have any money, a reblog is free and can help get more eyes on these campaigns. none of them are on tumblr, to my knowledge. nobody sees these campaigns unless people reblog posts about them or make their own posts.
thank you in advance for your consideration.
tags for reach under the cut (you can always let me know if you'd rather not be on this list, or if you want to be added to the list!)
You may like this amazing web page then: https://ciechanow.ski/mechanical-watch/
It’s a full break down of how a mechanical watch works, every single part including a complication. Every diagram is interactive and beautifully put together. It’s a fantastic read, fun to play with and really informative.
Seconding this recommendation, and in fact this person’s entire blog: he has multiple of these explainers and they’re all good.
In particular, if you’re a programmer who finds floating point numbers to be exotic dark magic, I strongly recommend his Exposing Floating Point post. There are many guides/tutorials on floating point arithmetic out there but IMO this is the best one and makes them really not seem so difficult by the end of it (or at least, all their counterintuitive behavior now makes sense).
