Top feature requests (that I'm sure are coming): - List view - Some integration with tasks If we get those, `dataview` is cooked.

Very interesting, especially the way the board is talking about it. There is almost no talk about taxing power, but a lot about new regulatory powers. And nothing about the required form of government change (from commission to county executive).

Can confirm that Obsidian Bases is very cool. Pretty much a one-for-one replacement of 95% of dataview stuff—though, how you get there is quite different.

Many questions: - Are they carrying live rounds? - Do they have access to less lethal weapons? - What are their orders if confronted by protestors? Combining 1+2 with 3: If yes and no, the only option is to retreat or fire. - If the former, what's the point? - If the latter, God help us.

Proposition: Anyone using less lethal rounds should have to experience being hit with one in the same way that police/military are required to experience being tasered or exposed to tear gas (and not just in initial training but on some regular schedule).

ZotFile but for Zotero 7. Essential if you store your files somewhere other than the default Zotero folder (if you want to self-sync files via Dropbox/OneDrive/etc).

Two points. 1. Maybe don’t zone for more people than you have water for? 2. Unless you’re 1 inch from the water source, everyone is using treated sewage in surface drinking water. Treated sewage is discharged back into the source it was drawn from.

“In a number of cases, trials that were mostly completed were rendered useless without the money to finish and analyze the work, the letter says. “Ending a $5 million research study when it is 80% complete does not save $1 million,” it says, “it wastes $4 million.”” Mhmm.

This is obviously bad for Canada, but also for a big parts of the US—Chicago has been nothing but smoke for the last week.

Here, I made a helpful graph to assist with “Cities are where very, very large numbers of Americans live” discourse, with real Census data and everything.

I mentioned to my wife that the XCO race today is in Leogang, AUS, and now I'm pretty sure we're spending a few weeks in the Salzburg region next summer.

EXTREMELY BAD NEWS for economic research, per former BLS Commissioner @ericagroshen.bsky.social on LinkedIn. BLS is suspending access to its restricted data "for the forseeable future." Applies to projects through the Federal Statistical Research Data Centers & onsite projects with BLS. #EconSky

While not generally important, I'm up to four different journal ranking methodologies in my review docs (two academic pieces, JCR, Scopus). How much do people care about this?

I forgot these exist, but I wonder if they'll expressly enumerate local grocery tax increases (starting Jan 1, 2026). A long lead time, but that will give us the most specific data on local adoption.

Perhaps it's semantics, but the Mayor's description of the grocery tax is incorrect. It's not locally collected (it's still collected by the state in the exact way it was), but it is locally implemented. You could choose not to (not that I'm advocating for that).
