I grew up in the ROC 'burbs and knew that it transitioned from calling itself The Flour City to The Flower City in the 1800s.

He nailed his first quad then chickened out from the quad axel and just lost all confidence - almost like he had a panic attack or something.

Alisa Craig is a tiny uninhabited island off the coast of Scotland and is the source of all the curling stones used (mostly) worldwide, but definitely in the Olympics.

David Roberts: it is really unfortunate that it’s not possible to have a reasonable discussion about AI on here

Once again: people are angry for very good reason, and this brand of post is perhaps one of the most tedious and bewildering. Practically every social media platform is rabidly pro-β€˜AI’ so are govts, academia, companies. This one small space being critical of AI is okay, I think.

I do have an indoor Blink I turn on, but only when I go out of town.
