I heard someone speak about election security and election legislation many years ago, and they said something I think applies much wider than I realized at the time: «No politician is motivated to change the system that got them elected»

Henry is surprisingly short for his 45 years. A little rounder in the face than you might expect, a little heavier than you might expect, and he is extremely, extremely eager.

Hop cones out to dry. Left: "klev". My first harvest from this plant. Very mild aroma. Not enough for a brew. Not sure what to do with it. Right: "hulla norrgård". Surprisingly citric aroma (a characteristic otherwise mostly found in American hops) and decent bitterness. I will brew with this one

Two framed insect screens are placed on saw horses outdoors.

On the screens are hop cones.

The left has few but quite large hop cones.

The right has plenty of smaller cones.

I don't know when I last bought balsa sheets from a hobby shop, it must've been in the 80s. But now I did and made this completely improvised airplane build. Quite OK, I think. It flies reasonably well.

Cut sheets of balsa on a table. You can see the rough shape of the fuselage and also the wings. There's a tube of glue and unused pieces of balsa.

Balsa plane resting on an outdoors chair on a patio. The wing span is 80cm. No control surfaces or balance weights yet.

We make equipment, hardware. I, a software guy, was called to a meeting where we discussed cooling airflow impedance matching with plug in boards vs with blind panels. I don't think I've ever felt so unable to contribute anything of value. Basic school physics only gets you so far.
