A stretch of undeveloped California coastline on the border of Marin and Sonoma counties has officially opened to the public for the first time in a century.
Set on the coast just south of Bodega Bay and west of Valley Ford, the "Estero Americano Coast Preserve" is a 547-acre expanse at the mouth of the Estero Americano estuary.
The property is managed by the Wildlands Conservancy,
a nonprofit in the San Bernardino Mountains. The conservancy acquired the preserve …

@… I talk about it in context of feedback loops. The sooner you can get feedback from your team, the sooner you can stop yourself potentially wasting time doing something the team doesn’t agree we should be doing in the first place.
It’s much easier to hear “Whoa hold up, that’s not what we agreed on” when you’ve spent an hour than a week.

Following federal cuts to history-focused organizations, the president of the Canadian Historical Association, Colin Coates, sent this letter to Marc Miller, the Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture.
One thing might not be obvious: Coates's reference to Carney's recent Quebec City speech suggests Canadians' need for historical context right now. He doesn't agree with Carney's claims. In fact, most Canadian historians would dispute them.

Letter:

Dear Minister Miller,
I am writing to you in my capacity as president of the Canadian Historical Association | Société historique du Canada. The members of our association have been distressed to see the recent news about cutbacks in a number of federal government units that are very important to all Canadians who are interested in the history of our country: Library and Archives Canada, the Canadian Museum of History and the Canadian War Museum, Parks Canada, and Statistics Canad…
Letter:

While we cannot expect the federal government to address problems at the provincial level, in your role as Minister of Canadian Heritage, we hope that we can count on you to advocate on behalf of all Canadians to maintain and enhance the role of agencies that collect data and records and make them accessible to broad publics. We recognise that the country faces many current challenges, but we do not want short-sighted decisions to have long-lasting effects on the future study of the co…

@… I agree: the measures should in principle cut down on excesses without hurting reasonable requests. But, as you say, we’ll see how it works out.
My fear is that funding for interdisciplinary projects will be even more difficult to obtain because the committees may tend even more to first fund their “core” disciplines.

Kind of an odd way to assure someone a poll is "completely anonymous," but I decided to answer Yes so I could take the poll. It was all questions about US national politics and approval/disapproval of various politicians and billionaires. I tried to answer truthfully, but on a few of them "strongly disapprove" is such an understatement that it almost doesn't feel truthful.

A screenshot from a phone with a header that reads "National Opinion Su...".  The first question reads

Hello, we are calling on behalf of a market research firm. We are conducting a brief survey about political issues in your area and would like your opinion. Your responses are completely anonymous, and we are not selling anything. Is this DAVID?

The choices are Yes or No.
