Just had another substantial tree come down in the wood, quite suddenly and with a huge bang, as I was splitting firewood for this evening's cooking. Fortunately I was nowhere near it, but I'm a bit shaken.
The wind isn't even that strong.

A tree down in the wood. I'm not certain that this is the one that just fell, but to be perfectly honest I'm not too keen to go into that part of the wood just now to check! The tree is spruce, about 25-30 metres tall; it lies across the chaotic partly— cleared area where about 2,000 trees came down in November 2021, where young willows, alder and oak are beginning to recover.

MacBook Ultra: Diese Neuerungen soll Apple planen
Seit 2021 hat Apple seine MacBook-Pro-Bauform nicht verändert. Mit dem kommenden Ultra könnte einiges neu werden – nicht nur dank OLED und Touchscreen.

Ich möchte anwesende SPD-Sympathisanten nur mal wieder daran erinnern, damit sie es im Tagesgeschehen nicht wieder vergessen und bei der nächsten Wahl nicht wieder aus allen Wolken fallen und einen von »Wir müssen unsere Politik besser kommunizieren« daherfaseln.
Eure Politik wird seit Gasherd Schröder gar prächtig von denen verstanden, die euch wählen sollen, Genosken!

Note sure why France24 is running the news article now — the news is several years old now, 95% deciphered as of 2021! — but worth celebrating nonetheless.
Here’s a cool interview:

But absurdity is no impediment to religious belief—credo quia absurdum. Working mostly off-campus, I noticed no real change in my own university until the BLM-riot-inspired anti-racism crisis of 2020, when I found that academe, originally a place for the free exchange of ideas, had become almost unrecognizable. Higher education has begun a transformation along the same lines as the 1966 “Cultural Revolution” in Maoist China.

The Multiversity and its Discontents: The Evolution of a Fatal Flaw — Minding The Campus
A well-known podcaster has the custom of going “off the grid” for a month each summer, to gain some perspective. I can beat that: I have been retired from academic teaching and research for nearly 14 years and have rarely visited my campus during that time. But last year, I finally encountered the university first-hand, […]
