I’m not looking for kudos. I’m just trying to model and hold myself accountable about doing so. If you have young men in your life, particularly if they are your sons, you need to be bringing this up.
Text message to my two college-attending sons with a link to Cornell rape article. 

“Gentlemen. I believe you both know how fucked up this situation was. I'm sure you don't need to hear from me how fucked up and unacceptable this situation was. And yet, I'm betting that dozens of parents whose young men were in that snapchat group and did
***nothing to stop it*** also had those beliefs so here we are.

Only men are responsible for putting a stop to this shit and me calling it out to you is the most important personal action
I can take.”

Details emerge in case of former Cornell student alleging gang rape

Every idiot who cast a vote for this RU stooge is not only directly responsible for screwing the environment (allegedly something they cared about) but also for all of the Trump pain. They knew this going in, but their "principles" demanded they intentionally throw away their vote for "reasons."

Love seeing this mention
Hallowell said the vendor selected for the program also gets no share of the fine. The MBTA is allowed to keep enough to fund the program and the rest goes to the state's Transportation Trust Fund.

Never realized the Amazon purchase history goes all the way back to their 1995 launch. My first order was 1996 and I remember them sending me a free mouse pad. No idea what it was as they couldn’t display that one or my two 1997 items. 1998, though, is a rich text.

Thankfully my grandfather was a total gadget junkie. $3K in 2026 dollars! In 4th grade I was called to the library by the principal who asked me to instruct the teachers how to use the one the school just received since he'd heard I had one at home.

I think I just gave him more of a pass both in comparison to other characters on the show but also grading on the curve of his time and locale. It’s been freaking me out watching Lanterns with Wolcott in it. That dude was so evil.

This one is relatively known among data geeks. From an Edward Tufte book.
“Probably the best statistical graphic ever drawn, this map by Charles Joseph Minard portrays the losses suffered by Napoleon’s army in the Russian campaign of 1812. Beginning at the Polish-Russian border, the thick band shows the size of the army at each position. The path of Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow in the bitterly cold winter is depicted by the dark lower band, which is tied to temperature and time scales. Exquisitely printed in two colors on fine archival paper. Minard’s sources. Minard’s biography.”

I reviewed the profile and thought it was spot on. That profile feeds into a super lightweight app. Not much in the way of actual code needed, and what was got generated by Claude. Did I mention I'm tech savvy but absolutely not an engineer. I can read code, but writing it is boring. (7/n)
