#JasmineCrockett is getting a lot of #heat for presenting an award to #ChrisBrown during his #R&B concert with #Usher in #Texas. Whatever you think of the #criticism, personally, I just don’t think it’s a particularly good look for a sitting congresswoman. The #optics are…not great.
AR-15 Upgrades That ACTUALLY Improve Performance (Optics!)
Don't waste money on AR-15 accessories. Improve performance with the right upgrades. First up: optics. Red dots for speed, LPVOs for versatility.
Buy quality, not cheap.

Christopher Negraes, a 2025 SPIE #Optics and #Photonics Scholarship recipient, is using his $5,000 to explore a new method to write a superposition of Bragg gratings in a volume hologram that could pave the way for new optical technologies. 💡

Saying nothing for the short term effectiveness of this line, I am unconvinced about the blithe dismissal of human rights issues as some silly culture war which undermines serious conversations. I'm probably not understanding the #optics correctly.
