Almost 3 hours is too fucking long for a movie. The Mandalorian and Grogu was two hours and 20 minutes, that was do-able as I like Star Wars, Mandalorian, Grogu stuff in general.

I'm not even the first person to say things along this line either:
"Another motivation for reducing the steel intensity of modern society is to limit the consequences of geopolitical conflicts. The more steel we produce for peaceful purposes, the more steel becomes available for war and destruction. Remarkably, the production of military equipment is absent from modern steel statistics, and if mentioned, its share is very low. However, in times of war, steelmaking facilities switch to producing steel for military purposes. The steel industry can thus be converted into a weapons industry at any moment, and there is now a lot more steel production capacity available than there has ever been in history."

Oh, and that article also shows the math that proves that there is no way to move to EVs without absolutely blowing through the carbon budget. You have to switch to bikes and trains. There's literally no other way to keep an even close to habitable planet.

Got my power bill for May. Net consumption was 2.73 MWh, an all-time low by a signficant margin (3.3 MWh in April 2026, and 3.77 MWh in July 2024, are the previous records).
The final bill after taxes and fees was $595, not *quite* an all time low (I paid $582 in July 2024) but that was for 3.7 MWh and I'm now paying almost as much for 2.7 - yay rate increases. If I can generate a touch more solar in June I might break the all-time low though.

Area Theorems and Quasiconformal Extensions of Harmonic Mappings with a Pole
Zhijun Chen, Limei Wang
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.03306 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.03306 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.03306
arXiv:2606.03306v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: In this paper, we study the class \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p) of sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings in the unit disk \mathbb{D} that possess a simple pole at p\in[0,1) and admit a k-quasiconformal extension to the extended complex plane for k\in[0,1). In 2024, Bhowmik and Satpati established an area theorem and derived a sufficient condition for the k-quasiconformal extension of harmonic mappings belonging to \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p) without logarithmic terms. Motivated by their work, we investigate the corresponding problem when a logarithmic singularity is present. Our main contributions are two-fold: we first prove a generalized area theorem for all mappings in \Sigma_{H}^{k}(p); we then obtain a sufficient condition for sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings in \mathbb{D} to admit explicit k-quasiconformal extensions. These results extend the aforementioned work to the setting where logarithmic singularities are allowed.

Between 2020 and 2024, no cervical cancer deaths were recorded in women aged 20 to 24
- the first time that had happened over a five-year period.
Without vaccination, around 23 deaths would have been expected.
"It's incredible to think that a single jab can almost eliminate a particular type of cancer,"
