One thing about Dolly Parton's passing that strikes me is that unlike some others, she experienced a lot of praise before passing. It wasn't saved for obituaries. There were regular (warranted) love-fests for Parton. I wish that for everyone. It's a good day to tell people you appreciate them.

I think the main difference in the left idea around solar is to move to it on a social scale, rather than individual house by the house. Costs, efficiency, benefits and so on.

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

When I said that at my school 20+ years ago in response to a request for odd formatting changes, they politely chuckled and told me I was no longer welcome to submit anything.

Australian possums are super cute. Not sure if they are just as harmless as North American ones.

The kids responses echo school shooter drills, and run, hide, fight lessons which sadly all these kids do have to go through.

Not always. Commercial office buildings might not have been built to accommodate the demands of housing, from plumbing, electricity, to HVAC aspects. Where hotels are already designed as individual small living units and their infrastructure is designed to accommodate full capacity.

Are the professions filled, or do a small proportion of people get an outsized share of the attention? Attention economy distorts the perception significantly.

Modern AI tools emulate the classic con-man tricks of mentalism, tricking people into believing that they’re far more clever - and sapient - than they actually are. Fantastic piece by @baldurbjarnason.com : softwarecrisis.dev/letters/llme...

We recently switched to requiring multi factor every 12 or so hours, which means every evening and weekend there are no work emails, messages or alerts and notifications. So liberating, though probably not intended by my workplace.

I think saving the hospital photo ops until we know which hospitals are actually facing that is best. Plus those are localized issues to rural area. Where ICE is a much more uniform national level problem that everyone can relate to.
