Back in my favourite pub in Johor Bahru catching up on my important reading date with @patrickwyman.bsky.social's wonderful Lost Worlds book with a pint of Guinness in hand after a gym interval sesh (which I assume is the proscribed method for this text).

Did my own Tour of Taiwan, and went for a long ride in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. 105km / 1060m in 35 Degree heat. A nice way to bring up a century. Highlights include: Sea monsters, Pagodas, Steep rampas, Temple Shrines, Interesting geology...and a road bike kid in a Cow Skinsuit
View down from Zhongliao mountain ridge to some interesting mud volacanic rocksKaohsiung Green park's Zhongxing tower (and a cyclist)More of the mud volcano ridges viewed lower down Zhongliao mountain ridge climb and a cyclist on the leftThe aptly named Dragon Tiger pagoda towers in Zuoying lotus pond. Two pagodas one with a dragon statues and one with a tiger statue in front of a lake.

My most nerdy very short sci-fi story is "The Immediate Sound Of Distant Hammers" universalshards.com/p/the-immedi...
There is a bug in the code of the universe.
In a vacuum, metals brought together without oxidation are expected to spontaneously weld together. Because atomically they have no idea they aren't the same mass. In 2056, it was found a specific Tungsten alloy at several thousand degrees does not produce this result. It does something different.
It does not weld, but instead produces a space-time deflection that's an inverse-square of the combined force.
And if you have several of these devices running at the same time, striking a row of these hammers in perfect vacuum, you start getting output. Structured output.
An atomic clock positioned in line with the tungsten piston, and one orthogonal to the strike point, both compared to an atomic clock several miles away to determine nominal, could be treated as a quaternary base-
4 subunit.
And it let you converse with the machinery running reality.

Just a casual lunch in a "fantasy" themed cafe out in Bangkok. Presentation and taste wise A+. Using fire "spells" to melt the chocolate casing or fariyfloss is a simple but fun idea.

I'm finally watching CITY, I knew the animation would be masterful (kyotoani + nichijou author) but by Episode 3 (even in dub) debates over its the best I've ever seen. You need to get around it @foxesforsale.bsky.social @teanewport.com (try e3 first) the ED/ animation budget towards ep 13 get nuts

Two immolations
Wout van Aert and Primož Roglič are both tragic heroes of their era in cycling, but the tales of their respective Tours de France ended in very different ways.

I love Tay’s investigation threads. This is a core habit to develop for troubleshooting, and it’s the same one needed by scientists and detectives - revisit the facts and ask: 1. Am I making any assumptions I didn’t realize on previous go-rounds? 2. When I realize I have, how can I validate it?
