As a complete non-scientist, but also someone fascinated by cosmology, I found this to be a very interesting read, even though at least half of it was over my head.

Some good news for my local library, thanks to Heated Rivalry author Rachel Reid. @ceilidhann.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I arranged an interview panel - one instructor (me), one other instructor, one college admin staff, and if possible an actual employer from the relevant industry.

It is indeed more difficult. The best guidance I have heard is to dress one step up from what the job requires - which may mean doing some research, which is a good thing.

This was also one of my favourite things when I taught in college. For many students, it was their first interview, so they got rid of a lot of nervousness. They also had to dress for the interview, which ensured they had suitable outfits for the real thing.

CBC Olympics coverage just cut away from the finish of the Women's curling semifinal to show the beginning of the men's hockey semifinal, and I am furious at whoever made that decision. Yes, I know it's streaming. Still mad.

A short term bandaid is sand, or perhaps a neighbor can give you some cat litter? It will provide some traction at least.

Tim Cook went to the White House last night for a screening of the Melania documentary. Just hours after someone was murdered by ICE. Remember that the next time you go to buy an Apple service or device.

Pick up the nearest book. Open to page 42 and post your second sentence. Add #page42 and include this rule as a reply. "We don't know when he was born or died, and we have no record of his life other than what he noted in the Farolfi ledger"

It's worth just for the experience of things like saying 'oh, that background singer is really good', then realizing it's Linda Ronstadt.
