I appreciate that Phil has an intimate understanding of the difference between "Notice", " Warning" and "Danger" and has used that knowledge here

it's actually not two Nobels for Josephson junctions, just one that tunnelled over a gap of 52 years

A little bit of morale booster came in the mail today. Even came with a nice little note attached. There are good people and good things, it's good for us to enjoy and support them.

My university has something called the "raft debate" where professors defend their disciplines. I've been chosen to represent the humanities and they asked me to make a promo video. You know what I had to do.

I once grabbed one during a training exercise because I was tired, cold, and sick to death of being "ambushed" by the cadre every couple hours. I threw it back at them. I almost burnt my hand despite wearing the issue black leather work glove with wool glove liner. They're burning inside.

Nonsense, I know @nanoraptor.danamania.com work when I see it.

I love the cassettepunk vibes of this

Age doesn't matter anymore. Old people think you're young, young people think you're old, you are *free* from giving a single shit about age. Experiences are a good way to milestone.

Also, never give anyone your real phone number or email address. Always keep spares.

I wish them every success, and I can't wait to see what they build.

Bookstore cats deserve salaries, benefits, and unions

Late gen-xers and millennials get no work life balance because the only way things ever get is harder, and very few of us have been able to fully climb up out of the gravity well so to speak. Even if you are so privileged that you do what you love, rest and perspective are extremely important.

Big misdirection here. It's *blue origin rocket dorks* this article points at. Astronaut training is performed by ESA and NASA and other relevant space agencies. I can't imagine flight med would ever allow no rest period. Research is clear on its importance.

This quote is pathological.

In case you're not Black and want out of BlueSky, there's a handle for you!

Pozolé is one of humanity's great achievements. That shit whips.

If "Pigs" isn't in that set list it would be a crime.

Relistening to Aesop Rock's masterpiece that is the "Daylight" EP. I'm taken back to having my mind blown when it released, and the great group of people I used to sit around on a porch with and discuss lyrics. And politics, and philosophy such as any of us knew it.

Damn it holds up.

I have only just learned of this, and now have the fury I need to get through my day.

It's like "the more you know" and throwing shit, all at once.

Hey @thejonbaker.bsky.social any chance of a "the more you throw" graphic of me going all McEnroe? I would commission that.

Oof, that curry has me absolutely *running the raffle* mate

Hard to imagine now, but there was actually a time when nobody outside of Hollywood knew or cared about a film’s budget or “profitability” because who cares, why would anybody care about that shit, and now it’s something we‘re all forced to know about every single movie that comes out

AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds The AI industry's claims about AI coding assistants boosting productivity significantly appear to be massively overblown, per a new report.

“In a new report, management consultants Bain & Company found that despite being ‘one of the first areas to deploy generative AI,’ the ‘savings have been unremarkable’ in programming.”

This has Grants Pass written all over it...

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

I'm going to print this out and hang it on my wall. Come for the music and shitposting, stay for the actually legit wholesome thoughts. If there's an NEA in the next administration, TinCan deserves a grant.

Well known to most Australians, this iconic piece of history is on the Barrier Highway near Burra.
Now known as the Midnight Oil House, a photo of it taken by Ken Duncan featured on the cover of Midnight Oil's 1987 album Diesel and Dust.
It looks pretty sitting in the canola.

A *good* read
