Motivation: Same ways as today (intrinsic &/or extrinsic mtvn)? How much deep learning currently done when "studying to the test" anyway? Pedagogy: More in-class learning w teachers & less homework? (Just thinking out loud optimistically btw; hopefully things won't be as bleak as we fear)

16 rapid burst photos to capture the 1.7 second transit of the International Space Station across the face of moon back in January 2022

One of my favourite images I've taken, the International Space Station transiting the moon. A rare night when it all came together.

Interesting article, e.g., "Having more than one diagnosis doesn’t necessarily mean that someone has multiple, unrelated disorders with independent origins; it simply means that the symptoms they’re experiencing fit more than one prototype." #mentalhealth
