It's time for BEE FACTS
For every donation to this link, I will post one (1) fact about bees!
These little green bees are sweat bees. They're called that because they love salt & might come get some from you if you're sweaty.
They're solitary, sting but not very hard, and most of them nest in bare patches of dirt next to plants.
Plant flowers & leave some bare spots!
Honeybees are famous for working hard, but if you watch a hive, most of them spend a lot of time just chillin out on the honeycomb.
So when people tell you you gotta "be a good worker bee".... now you know the secret to their work ethic. Secure housing, affordable food, & naps.

Fantastic wide-ranging discussion about websites and browsers for a generalist to be aware of. You don't need to know how to do everything, but you DO need a huge contextual awareness across the stack to solve hard problems. Even a hint. 13min

I emphasize how important even knowledge of a thing being a thing helps. And it will seem utterly useless in the moment. It matters later, you will be completely surprised random tech stuff you did 20 years earlier randomly comes up as important. Try things, even Linux.

My email collection is now hosted on my own site:
The email body texts show up as white on light gray for me, which is a tad hard to read.
I guess it tries to apply a dark theme, and fails? The links to github show up with black on light gray.
Much better, now it is white on black. Thank you.
The "Start here" link on the front page leads nowhere (missing ".html"), btw.
We really should talk more about why Nate Silver is not particularly liked by a lot of people who actually work with data.
"I would bet 60-40, 70-30 on lab leak probably"
This is just throwing random numbers on his hunches. He does this _all of the time_ and doesn't generally disclose (or even necessarily know to disclose) which pieces are his "hunches."
He mixes things that he puts into a model and fails to mention any validation beyond topline as well

I suppose the whole process, and my own mind, is still contaminated because I initially used an LLM. I can think of the following things that remain from my usage of Claude:
- The use of FFV1 as a lossless video codec. Presumably I would have found that in the FFmpeg documentation if I had really looked.
- The pixel format conversion to yuv420p to fix compatibility problems. Claude gave me that one for the MP4 version, and then I also applied it to WebM.
- The use of 256 Kbps for AAC.

This morning we went to see an exhibition by the wonderful Margot from watercolorpatterns (watercolourpatterns.com/), and it's just insane the precision, dedication and just sheer amount of care and detail she puts into every single one of her watercolors.
And it's all just this wonderfully enthusiastic lady doing everything herself!

VOTE EARLY THIS WEEKEND
Good morning. If you live in a state where you can vote early or vote by mail, why not vote this weekend?
Check your state: cbsnews.com/news/map-early-votβ¦
Voting early is the best thing you can do to help Harris. It establishes a winning narrative which undermines polling manipulation by biased GOP pollsters. It also motivates our team and demoralizes them. Right now, with more than 10 million votes already banked, Dems are up by >1.5 million votes.
VOTE!
Weeks before the 2024 election, early voting by mail or in person will be available in most states β here's a map with more information about early voting options.CBS News
Tim Walz is not "redefining masculinity." Tim Walz is redefining *white masculinity*.
Trump does not have a big lead with men voters. Trump has an *absolutely massive lead* with *white men voters*.
70% of the NFL is Black. 90% of those Black men vote Dem. More Black men than white women think the environment is important. Black men support masking to prevent the spread of Covid. Black men are more likely to support women's reproductive rights. Etc, etc.

With gender central to the campaign, Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz is taking a different approach to masculinity compared to bro-ness and aggression., USA TODAY (USA TODAY)
The reason this view is so discordant is that so many people's view of Black men is based on gangsta rap - base, aggressive, violent.
Which is funny since, as I learned from a post of yours from many months ago, gangsta rap is more popular among white people than it is among Black people.
@davidnjoku it took me a while but entirely I finally clued into how media portrays black men. Once you start seeing it, it's perversive.
How they show a mug shot if one is available by default. White guy criminals get yearbook photos. words like thug get used a lot. White guys get discussions of their lost future, black guys get only discussions of the crime.
Someone benefits if we're all afraid of black men. It's bullshit. And a lot so called liberals buy into it too.
