We also ideally need people to be able to access night rates at these sort of on street chargers, so that people who can't charge at home, can get cheap electrons

So weirdly, I thought they were going to squeeze maybe 20-30 houses in, and wondered if that was worth sacrificing a park for, but if it's 500, that's a whole different ballgame, and with seemingly some planned high quality greenspace

This chart appears to be sourced from kpler.com, a reputable freight analytics firm, but the original is proprietary. If correct is suggests that mass flight cancellations are imminent, initially in Europe.

I just read that actually, thought the St Joseph's site looks somewhat less ambitious than for that park area, though it doesn't have the same 3D render, only maps + cross sections

This is really a lot of houses (though less in the Colbert quarter than I would have expected)

Satellite image of Boro park, highlight adjacent unused land

Has anyone ever clarified if the plan is to build right on the park, or could it be the rough land adjacent to the park. Also, I'm assuming a footbridge over the railway line would not be a preferred alternative? Just seems like not a lot of info about the proposal

The Bike Lane Gender Gap: New Research Shows Women Ride More Where Protected Infrastructure Exists New research from New York City-based Transportation Alternatives highlights a persistent pattern in urban cycling.

NYC study shows men are 2.6x more likely than women to bike to work. When protected bike lane coverage is high, women’s cycling rates rise significantly faster than men’s.

When protected lanes are limited or fragmented, women’s participation drops sharply.

Good bike investments give women choices.

I wasn't doing anything particularly demanding with it, but it seems extremely good/user friendly, and much less resource intensive than resolve

I went from Resolve (which seemed heavy) to Shotcut, which is also open source. Might be worth a look

I've recently seen competent English wrecked in this way. No hallucinations, just kind of muddier, long-winded, technically correct, and boring. Notably worse to read, and perhaps subtly less precise. Not really wrong, but I'd definitely prefer the unedited version as a reader

There were a bunch of retractions in a different psychiatry journal this week, so we'll go with publishing high octane rubbish, in amongst hopefully some more 'quality' stuff

Assorted Haiku


Haiku #2511
 
Tourists wait in line
to enter Machu Picchu.
Oh, look! A high queue.


Haiku #564127
 
how dare you suggest
I have a short attention
spanish omelette
 

Limeraiku
 
There once was a young
limerick from Kew who turned
into a haiku.


The Constraints of Haiku
 
Tied up all night with
a haiku dominatrix
and her three-line whip.
 

Shakespearean Haiku
 
Shall I compare thee
To a summer’s day? Alright –
Thou art pretty hot.
 

How to Write a Haiku
 
The last line should flow
seamlessly from the first two –
hippopotamus.
  

                             Brian Bilston

It’s International Haiku Day apparently and so for today’s poetry offering, here are a few assorted haiku.

I really didn't understand how this might work, but seems remarkable if true, that an LLM can conceal info about owls in it's numeric output

And a second point about whether it's complementary or aiding. I have loved genAI for helping debug and improve my R code, but it's not doing anything that I couldn't work out for myself. But I don't know any python, and so using it to write python code for me would be inherently dangerous

This seems like a really reasonable take. I've been planning (and about to implement) a thing where I ask my team to share how they are using AI, with me sharing first, because I think I need to know how it's being used

From a Million Miles Away, NASA Camera Shows Moon Crossing Face of Earth - NASA A NASA camera aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured a unique view of the moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth

Found the link, apparently this shot is from 2015, and from a photo-taking satellite www.nasa.gov/solar-system...

funny that it turns out the moon is much more rock coloured than we realise!

Marathon Man: how to pace a marathon – quantixed

For followers who are into running and/or #RStats

It's marathon season. I crunched the numbers on the 2025 NY Marathon to work out how to optimally pace a marathon. There's a general rule that works if you're going for sub-2:20 or trying to make it round in 6 hours.
