@edyong209.bsky.social ‘s “An Immense World,” is making my day and filling me up with fascinating stuff. I passed it off to my daughter, as she is interested in becoming a biologist and is interested in philosophical questions, and that’s exactly the boundary danced around in this book.

Hey, New Outlook: if I’m rescheduling a meeting today, it’s unhelpful if the Scheduling Assistant pops back to five days ago.

I’m at my daughter’s high school graduation and the jazz band just played a tune with the same bass line as The Frantix’ “My Dad’s a Fuckin’ Alcoholic,” which fills me with joy. youtu.be/95OB8GERgyE?...

Is there a browser plugin that replaces the text strings “ChatGPT,” “AI,” and “LLM,” with “Jock Itch.”

I am on a work trip and my laptop is showing one time zone for the system time, another in the daily calendar view, and a third when I look at individual meetings. This has definitely not resulted in any ridiculous meeting invite scheduling on my part.

Happy Mother’s Day to the mothers out there. I should point out it’s a national holiday in Costa Rica. Hint, hint @ US Senators and Representatives.

Watching Tropic Thunder with the kids. A great touch I have not previously noticed: the big pile of heroin that Jack Black gets to in the warlord’s camp is shaped like the Devil’s Tower, a la Close Encounters.

Apologies in advance for the paywall, but the article quotes US Army Colonel Steven Gutierrez as stating AMP-HEL counter-drone laser systems will be deployed to the US-Mexico border, expanding upon the fiction that the country is at war, being invaded, etc. aviationweek.com/defense/sens...

Mike Reed/Angelika Niescier/Jason Adasiewicz/Dave Rempis, Hungry Brain, Chicago IL, 05/08/2025. This was great - Rempis and Niescier constantly winnowing lyrical moments out of gales of free jazz sax howl, over Lee’s superb drumming and Adasiewicz doing more with vibes than you might think possible.
