If you're still up later tonight 12-1am and the sky is clear (decent chance it will be at least partly clear) you can view the moon turning various shades of red from the eclipse. Halifax details (similar throughout Maritimes): timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/c... #nswx #pewx #nbwx

Remembering to drop in here again, after a stretch of work domination. Last time I brought pretty pictures. This time I bring this from NYT: "Sensay plans to help companies capture the knowledge of departing employees by creating an A.I. version of them that sticks around as a sort of consultant."

As a longtime Raiders fan who shifted allegiance to the partner/inlaw team when they moved to vegas, seeing the Seahawks annihilate the 9ers may have been the most enjoyment I've had watching NFL since Raiders' LA years. Schneider has built something beautiful.

Moving my yearend list to Tidal from Spotify I learned a lot has changed in Bandcamp in the 16 years I've loved it as something different than either itunes (own any track) or Spotify (social). I ended up in both, connect if you are in either, and also here's my list! bandcamp.com/rainerfloo/p...

Halifax council outdoing themselves on this. Years of tenacious coalition across the cultural sector to restore the Turret building, and then out of the blue a secret yanking of the rug out from under. Please add your voice to the thousands demanding better. actionnetwork.org/letters/turr...

I’m with the majority of the @ndp.ca caucus who voted against this austerity budget that would have made Stephen Harper smile, a gusher of corporate welfare and weapons spending that does nothing to make the lives of working people more affordable. 🧵 1/3
