look, if you're worried about being remembered, don't try to pursue immortality or whatever, the smart move is to start selling substandard copper and then make sure anyone who complains deposits a physical copy of that complaint in a site that will later be archaeologically significant

I don't think that's ever going to happen purely due to statistics. Like if every trans woman in the world who wanted to do competitive sports actually participated, only a fraction would make it to the elite level, just like anyone else.

Blue and purple often don't match between what you see on the screen and the print. If you have a colour profile adjusted monitor that matches the printer, and the design file uses the same colour profile, then the colours should be close. This does not account for the effect of the substrate.

Writing and speaking in front of an audience are orthogonal skills. Being good at one doesn't mean being good (or even comfortable) with the other.

I have finished a knitting project that I started over a year ago. Sweaters for adults take a long time. #xfiles #iwanttobelieve #knitting
A sweater with a blue, green and purple ombre effect going from bottom to top that reads, "I Want To Believe" and has a UFO.

I remember reading part of that fic back in the day. A friend shared it on livejournal, probably close to 2010. I read a few chapters, got bored, and gave up. Not in my wildest dreams did I imagine it would lead to whatever is going on right now.

Hmm I don't know, because there are a lot of quite small outfits that are mostly digital. The litmus test for me is whether they give you an editor and do your cover art. Because if they do, then you are absolutely doing way better then self-pub.

We've learned about Persian desert-powered ice pits, now let's learn about Iron Age Persian AIR CONDITIONING. How did people live in the hottest part of the world before you could dial down the thermostat & hope your electric bill gets lost in the mail? Let's learn about 'badgirs' or wind towers.

I don't get the foldable phone trend. They are more expensive, and I feel like it's guaranteed that the screen will fail sooner than a regular phone.

This is something I saw a lot from 1st year undergrad lab reports when I was teaching. I call it the "blow-by-blow" description. Such descriptions capture a sequence of actions rather than significance of actions. Definitely something that improves with thoughtful practice!

This was my mindset right from the beginning. I played around with the tools and they just weren't very good. They still aren't very good. My writing is better than AI in every possible way.

My local paper had a therapist respond to a letter from a reader who was very worried about getting sick. Instead of suggesting vaccination, masks, and air filtration, the therapist said to practice acceptance because you can't prevent getting sick 😵‍💫

Ambulances prefer to only come for life and death situations. But if you have an unconscious stranger on your hands, what are you supposed to do? I called one once when I came across a disoriented old man on the street who had fallen and hit his head. They showed up eventually.
