people: hi
me: Im quite serious when I say that I want to orbit and probe Uranus! It’s a type of planet we’ve never properly explored before, yet it’s the commonest type of planet in exoplanetary systems. And it has 5 round moons

I just realized my (Seattle-based nonprofit) publisher has a sale on. I'm proud of the 2nd edition here--new science, new chapters on leafcutter bees and assorted solitary bee pests, and a bazillion new color photos. Lots of titles for outdoors topics of all kinds if pollinators aren't your jam.

The Criterion Channel has a Werner Herzog collection right now, and it includes 2 of the best documentaries: The Great Ecstacy of the Woodcarver Steiner, and How Much Wood Would A Woodchuck Chuck? Both are meditations on excellence, one in 170-plus-meter ski jumps, the other in auction calling.

ADDING. A Living will or medical directive for EVERYONE. I know folks that follow me that are estranged from their families. Do make sure someone you trust will legally be able to follow your wishes if you become incapacitated!!
Because it came up in discussion with my family today I wanted to make my periodic reminder to folks to GET A WILL.
If you have a long time partner/Spouse, own any property, have kids or pets Having a will is very very very very important

I've been told that one of the Actually It Has Some Uses of genAI is that it can analyze data, but it also cannot do that. Copilot repeatedly fails to tell which of two numbers is higher. It cannot analyze a dataset of two. AI is a scam. It is financial fraud
