We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

In the Renaissance people theorized, since the Aeneid is great, if you wrote poems made only of words & phrases from the Aeneid rearranged they should be great too, since a great source regurgitated should yield greatness. They produced NOTHING we still read. Thinking about that a lot lately.

57 years ago today, humans first landed on the Moon. The source code that helped get them there? It’s on GitHub. Margaret Hamilton led the MIT team responsible for Apollo’s onboard flight software. (Image credit: Draper Laboratory; restoration by Adam Cuerden, via Wikimedia Commons.)

Mu kodutänaval parkimine tasuta. 15 aastaga on autode arv julgelt 4-kordistunud. Nüüd on igale nurgale lisandunud ka boldi rendikad. Maju juurde ehitatud pole. Kõrvalasumi festivalide jm käigus parkimine plahvatab. Väga pooldaks mingitki tasu, mille eest nt kõnniteedele talutav valgustus rajataks.

Oleneb ilmselt kui erakordseks pidada sebrale jalakäijana sattumist ja sealt eluga üle pääsemist… aga tõesti, kas peaks ka punase foori taga istujatele lehvitama teed ületades? St kas eeldus on, et igal juhul teeb juht pidurdades mulle teene? Või oleks kena tänada vastastikku?

All classic ghost story writers have bios that are like “His father taught at Oxbridge, then founded a society for seances & spiritualist research, then became Archbishop of Canterbury; his mother was a famous political genius & medium.” That specifically is E. F. Benson but they’re all like that
