Entry-level musical instruments. When I was a kid in the 70s, starter instruments were so unplayable, it’s as if they were intentionally designed to make you give up.
Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.
If nations don't do a better job transitioning to net zero, adaptation efforts by themselves are going to be clumsy and yield minimal results. These kinds of clumsy efforts are going to increase the chance of civil unrest. www-cnbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.cnbc...

Aaron Rodgers spoke out about Dr. Anthony Fauci. Sophie Cunningham spoke out about transgender athletes. Caitlin Clark chose not to weigh in. Three different approaches, one common result: criticism. Steve Buckley on how athletes can't win on social media: nyti.ms/3Sa9A7D
Huh. Just realized this camping trip has been like our marriage (shared this with my wife first) Nice at the start, bit stormy, almost made us quit, but the storm cleared and we're enjoying it immensely now.
Today we celebrate twenty-five years of marriage. There were some rough seas at times, but we made it. We still are affectionate with each other, act like teenagers in love in public at times. Holding hands until the sunset. Love you babe.
On the drive here this past weekend, saw a car, a small 5-door hatchback. Unassuming fuel efficient thing. With the following bumper stickers. Steppenwolf Iron Maiden Black Sabbath And I Brake for Turtles I've never identified with someone else's bumper stickers and choice of vehicle so hard.
Grab a lawn chair and your favourite movie snacks, and head to Civic Square outside City Hall to see A Bug’s Life. More info at Cambridge.ca/SummerLive

Scenes from a hike. Ontario hardwood forest, some Canadian Shield and water.
Electric bikes and camping go together. And damn, I wish I could bring mine. (Weight and transportation issue getting it here.)
Grey County is slowly reintroducing some of its transit services as a four-county study (with Bruce, Dufferin, and Wellington) continues. Route 5, connecting Owen Sound and Wiarton, will resume in Fall 2026, and the Guelph-Owen Sound bus will continue. www.grey.ca/news/interim...

Hey man, maybe just make the sandwiches and take a pic of them.

Oh for a simple puzzle game without "challenges", "events" and "badges"
It's an HR problem as old as time: it's hard to attract and retain mature, intelligent, capable people when your business is a whimsically adolescent, incompetent enterprise selling malicious codswallop to malcontented curmudgeons. They're still featuring *this* on their website:

🥲 sorry to break it to you
To be clear, I think "machine learning" is as anthropomorphic as "artificial intelligence". Learning and intelligence perform the same role, they imply uniquely biological or psychological capacities to the machine or artifact through their use in the phrase. See table 1: doi.org/10.48550/arX...
Well that's a concerning evolution, "Younger men are angry and want to break things. So, we’re going from ‘fix things’ to ‘break things’ in a massive part of our coalition.” nationalpost.com/news/canada/...

I dislike this so much. Hate laws are bad.
What I don't understand about these trans hate bills is that they are so internally confused. This one allegedly requires genetic screening, testosterone testing or an examination of reproductive anatomy to allow female sport participation. THOSE OFTEN GIVE DIFFERENT ANSWERS!
Good framing.
Saw a post saying they stopped using MS Word because it doesn't autosave when not using OneDrive as the default save location. That's why they prefer Google Docs instead. 🤦
I'm sitting by a campfire smoking a cigar and sipping wine while reading. The background noise is owls hooting and loons calling. Nature is amazing.

The Conservative Party of Canada is so unoriginal, they can't even come up with their own native conspiracy, harassment, and misplaced vengeance campaigns. #CdnPoli 🇨🇦
