On this day in 1909, the National Hockey Association was formed with initially four teams. The league introduced three period hockey, allowed player changes on the fly and eliminated the rover position. The league operated until 1917 when the NHL replaced it.

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

New levels of AI insanity.
AI-generated images of the Holocaust are flooding social media & distorting understanding of history

We endured strong winds & sleet showers, we were wet and cold, but the light made it worth it. The skies opened, the magic happened, & we rushed to capture the awe inspiring beauty! Tombstone, Yukon, Canada.

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

Hey.
Wanna see what it looks like to fly past your home planet?
THEN LOOK AT THIS
This is the OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft's view as it swung by Earth on Tuesday, 23 September 2025 from an altitude of 3,500 km.
Look how beautiful that big blue marble is ❤️

This is an incredible image of comet 3I/ATLAS, taken by Satoru Murata ICQ Comet Observations group on 16 November 2025 from western New Mexico.
Structure within the major dust tail from the comet is clearly visible, together with two smaller jets trailing the nucleus and maybe even an anti-tail.

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.
