Swear to God I had something for this.

We had an actual drinking light last night.

Photo of a small kerosene lamp between two cocktails. The cocktail on the right is in a journal glass and has a straw. The one on the left is in a tall-ish rocks glass. Both are sitting on orange napkins. The background is a dome with a center column. It's a dark, sort of speakeasy feel.

I think that's worse, honestly. If only because it (correctly) includes the word "moist".

In July, we released Courtney 50.0. It may not be the fastest writing machine, but it has been honed fifty years of intensive language training. Based on the benchmarks demonstrated by this chart, Courtney 50.0 crushes the competition so significantly that we should have used a log axis.

An incredibly long graphic, using the graphic in the post text at the very bottom (a chart showing Open AI vs Grok vs Fable release date on the X axis, and model number on the Y axis). There is a long piece of whitespace, and then Courtney 49.0 and Courtney 50.0 are graphed at the very top.

Caught the CalFire C-130 taking off from Ramona on Sunday before it headed over to Miramar for the Marine Corps Air Show. #photography #aircraft

Photo of a large, four engine turboprop plane in flight. The plane is painted red and white, and has the words "Cal Fire" on the side. Exhaust trails are visible from behind each engine, and the door to the landing gear in the nose is only partially retracted.

On the one hand, I wouldn't mind seeing this big sucker do a slurry drop. On the other hand, I don't mind not being near somewhere that needs a drop!

Their ice cream is also terrific. Easily the best large-scale production ice cream I've ever had.

I saved this until I got home so I could listen on the good headphones. So worth it.

Maybe? The one I'm thinking of included a section on how the laser in a Blu-ray player gets the class it does because it's fully enclosed, and how if you crack open that enclosure that goes out the window.

I'm remembering a time when you described what the different classes were/meant, but now I can't find it. Was that on Twitter? Or is my search-fu of your site archive lacking today? Or did I hallucinate this one entirely?

I think you'd be surprised what you can do with a stopped-down aperture, ISO 100, and shooting in RAW. There's always Corey Hart mode*, too. *neutral density filter

Photo of their prices from this morning: still $8.999/gal for regular. I doubt even the airport car rental stations are this high.

Photo of a Shell gas station sign with prices. Regular is $8.999 per gallon, Plus is $9.199, V-Power is $9.399, and Diesel Number 2 is a whopping $9.999 per gallon. Date of photo is September 28. 2026.

Hi Jess! I emailed a few days ago but think I might have hit your spam filter. Got a friend here interested in the whole collection, but he's asking for a price first.

I rode my bike down to Fiesta Island yesterday so of course didn't have my big camera. While I was waiting for my riding partner every raptor in the ZIP code came by, and the kingfisher put on a tremendous show. I swear they know.

Given all the *flails hands* you all deserve one of the most adorable pictures I took of Baby Bird Season 2026. A snowy ploverlet peeking through a little sand shrub. Perhaps a once in a lifetime shot. 🪶 🐣

Wow, I apparently remember a lot less from Anatomy than I realized. I know it was 20+ years ago, but now I'm wondering if I've been doing EKGs wrong this whole time.

Does anyone know someone in Fresno or Sacramento who can go to the clerks office at the district court on occasion? Habeas Dockets is trying to get immigration cases publicly available and volunteer coverage is limited in CAED. habeasdockets.org

Eternally relevant. Doubly so when the vendor for System 2 touts how impeccable and smooth their integration and interface with System 1 will work out of the box.

Speaking as a father who had the same thought when my kids were of the target age: Could I? No, I don't have that kind of time to shop, much less to finish the plywood appropriately.

L1 at home, L2 at work as needed. Even without charging at work we've never found we needed L2 at home. Commute is ~13 miles (21km) round trip for reference.

Hummingbirds.

A four panel comic. In panel 1, a rufous hummingbird flies down toward a large hummingbird feeder with as many as 6 holes on top. He thinks "The humans put up a new feeder!" In panel 2, he lands on the feeder and gazes down at it. He thinks "It's huge. Many of us could feed here at once." In panel 3, we see a close up view of the hummingbird, and he's thinking "This could end the ancient rivalries. Usher in an era of peace. Interesting." In panel 4, an Anna's hummingbird hovers over the feeder and says "Hey, can I have some necta-" and the rufous hummingbird says "No."
