My favorite Appalachian fact is that, unlike the Himalayas, there are no shells on top of the Appalachians because they predate shells.

it really sucks how we’re finally seeing a US regime put people under 60 in leadership positions, and all those people are invariably both stunningly stupid and wildly evil

@boursier.bsky.social I haven’t dared touch the hands of your Cyberpunk Cuckoo Clock ever since I got the hands just perfectly right. So, when the clocks changed I just pop out the batteries, wait 23 hours, and and then pop them back in. NEVER SET THE HANDS AGAIN, NEVER TOUCH

The 'With These Hands' trail features plaster casts which reproduce artefacts from the Mohenjo-daro ruins, one of the great cities of the Indus Valley Civilization (3000-2500 BC). Sold as cultural souvenirs, these casts connect modern makers with disappearing histories.This seal was donated in 1955.

A nearly pure black great blue heron, except for yellow beaks and eyes. Pictures from a Facebook group say 17 hours ago, but I was sent this, so could be several days. First posted late last year.

Amazing results in New York remind me how disappointing it is that congestion pricing efforts have stalled in San Francisco. With congestion pricing, Muni service could be robustly funded, transit ridership would climb, and traffic through much of the Bay Area would significantly decrease.

I think AR has the possibility to absorb people totally because it’s basically one step closer to having a phone in your face 24/7, a natural state for most people right now.

One of the best things I ever got from colorware was a pencil that glows bright orange under a black light. I’ve lost it in my apartment and found it by shining a black light like I was searching for scorpions in the desert.

I think I need to drive this home more: programming didn't used to be like this—even for complex, networked apps with a large amount of features and complex user interfaces. And apps didn't have thousands of dependencies like many even simple ones do now.

Vinay Prasad overrode the recommendations of a panel of scientists who said that 2025-2026 COVID19 vaccines should be recommended for everyone over the age of 12 years. COVID19 remains a serious public health threat. He will get people killed. He doesn’t care. His ego wins, always.
