Just because many people are not vocal on social media does not mean that they don’t care or aren’t trying their best. There’s more than one way to skin an onion.

Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

Timelines are a pain to make but they are sometimes required for grant proposals. I came across this tool last night that seems like a nice, simple solution to creating timelines - building off the simple-formatting ethos of Markdown: markwhen.com

Google search has become a hot mess of total bullshit. I'm testing out Kagi (kagi.com) and am impressed. Yes, you have to pay $10/month for unlimited searches. But, if you're not paying, you're the product. It's worth checking out (not an affiliate link - just figured some might be interested).

What's up with all these online "proofing" systems that don't, you know, let you look at the actual PDF page proofs of your manuscript? God forbid I want to read through the article as it will look after publication. I'm looking at you Wiley 👀.

I've been thinking about writing something about NYC's rat management for some time. Over the years I've become increasingly alarmed about over-reliance on anticoagulant poisons and trapping to kill rats rather than deal with NYC's fundamental issues. www.nytimes.com/2023/08/27/o...
