Sorry about my friend he’s been living off nutrient poor fine grained sediment for years

I'm just telling it like I see it. Tree. Grass. Sky. A bird...beautiful...

Adapting to technological progress is unfair to countries that don't want to adapt to it.

Just misguided. Impossible to have any clarity of understanding, let alone purpose, if you narcotise your senses with "music".

I am pure of mouth, pure of hands. (BDB)

60k-line-long children's rhyme that was handed down losslessly by succeeding cohorts of five-to-seven year olds for three hundred years then got forgotten due to a three year gap of no kids that age in the village.

Climate impacts of that might be mixed if they adopt the China model of energy sovereignty: electrify transport, build coal plants to ensure reliable electricity.

Current valuation is "a life well lived".

My new AI app is an old log lying by the side of the path. You sit on the log and you watch the creek flow.

AI can't produce insightful prose because the only true insight is to write nothing, say nothing. Tell me when there's an LLM that is silent in response to all queries.

this meeting could have been an email. i would read it over and over and smile

u missed the point by idolizing him

"One for The City, two for The Hive,
three for The Jelly that keeps us alive,
four for The Mayor, five for The Queen,
Six for The Hand that remains unseen,
Seven for The Cell, 8 for The Wall,
and nine for The Gate that guards us all."

Currently in Australia, where solar and batteries are cheaper than the US, solar + 4hr battery is cost competitive with fossil electricity through the evening peak, but solar + longer duration battery isn't cost competitive with fossil overnight. Data centres want 24hr power.

Got skipped for the "un-" part.

Another letter from the local council. It just says "There is hope - but not for us" and then a map showing the entire council area has been rezoned as cemetery.

If we HAVE reached Peak Oil Demand (which they can assess better than I can), then I imagine their drawdown strategies involve a (drawn out as possible) retreat to the cheapest oil sources to extract and export. That would've been the Gulf. Unpredictability in your backup plan is not good.

Really anyone competent could see that the results would entrench the power of IRGC-linked hardliner independents in the House of Assembly, not neutralise them.

I feel like goblins would actually have a very good if fussy coffee culture. Steampunk vibes lend well to obsessive improvement of espresso technology.

When you buy like thirty zucchinis people look at you different. They think of you as a serious person.

Always worth celebrating.

We should all take more pills.

This is fine, because any fiction which rigorously eliminates plot holes is already spiritually slop.

I frequently see this with electricity transmission planning documents. The plans of five years ago are treated as accurate descriptions of today.

I find that exposure to the elements increases the quality of my tea. After drying, I like to spread the leaves out somewhere in the suburbs, where the neighborhood coyotes are drawn to the pleasing aroma. However, this approach isn't without its flaws. I have been mauled viciously

Update on this: baby got transformed into a crow, again. They still won't tell me whether this is success or failure.

My knowledge of non-sanctioned major commercial contracts is that energy companies / banks / insurers would all prefer a common law jurisdiction, and that's the biggest one I can imagine is touching these deals. But I'll admit sanctioned stuff might take the governing law it can get.

Whose courts / governing law do they use for contracts for sanctioned oil? Hong Kong?
