The slope of Buena Vista Park above Haight Street has some beautiful shrubs and forbs, including natives, but there was also a lot of invasive Oxalis in this spot. Now there’s not 😎

Invasive Oxalis, with clover-like leaves and five-pointed white flowers, grows between two other plants I don’t recognize but that seem to be here on purpose, one with drooping white flowers, another that’s like a tall grass.
Same spot with the Oxalis gone.

Steps Into The Unknown (2025)
(Actually a lie, since this was taken on the way back, just before sunset, but it was "into the unknown" a six hours earlier... These steps of the only partially secured path are leading up to around 100 meters above/along the increasingly more steep and narrow canyon. The rocks/slopes on the left go up almost another 2000m [out of view, of course]...)
#FootpathFriday

I inherited my copy of Plato's Republic from my father, and I have always assumed he got it while he was at university. He probably did. But I assumed he bought it new, and he didn't. He's written his name on the flyleaf, but above it someone else has written 'A H Pearce, Jan 88' (very nice handwriting). The title page dates it to 1881.
So this wee book is probably one hundred and forty five years old. It's in remarkable condition.

A small book bound in dark green leather, with some stamped gold leaf decoration. In a red panel on the spine, it is entitled 'Republic Of Plato', in gold serif capitals.
The flyleaf, on which someone has written 'A H Pearce, Jan 88' in very neat handwriting, and my father has scrawled 'A T Brooke' underneath.
Inside, the text is quite dense, but very clear and legible.

I keep seeing #HamRadio antennas using all sort of huge devices to create links between band segments. Alligator clips. Wago blocks. Mueller clips. Mostly with the antenna wire tied to something stiff that makes it hard to roll up neatly, rather than using flexible cord. I keep looking for and not finding examples of my approach to linking.
My solution is so simple, neat, and tidy…

Photo of an antenna link between 12 meter and 15 meter segments, shown above a metric scale. The entire link is between 17 and 18 cm long. Dacron cord carries the load between the two segments, which are connected by banana plugs insulated by more heat shrink.
The same link as in the first picture, this time disconnected.
Linked dipole form showing one leg of a dipole with many links in it wound up for storage. The wire is wound in a figure eight to avoid twists. Several of the links are partially visible in it.

My moment of clarity in the last few weeks was coming back to “Oh right, copyright is a hack, and one that is not serving us, particularly us on the margins”
The moral rights of authorship and the way we situate our legal process of ownership are, actually, kinda at odds. And it entirely misses the idea of a commons, both as community and as a cultural base to draw from.
I've long believed that we, collectively, should own our culture — to have modern myths be Copyright 1972 LucasFilm, the traditional songs we sing Copyright 1922, now owned by Warner/Chappell Music is one of the things I find repugnant about the situation we find ourselves in.
That said, reconciling that with the behavior of the AI companies, _particularly_ the American ones? It's hard. Google abuses its monopoly position; Microsoft has forced harmful and terrible tooling on people at every turn; OpenAI is run by someone who actively despises art and does not understand it; and Anthropic is run by a guy who is trying to make sure the apocalypse has a pleasant demeanor and doesn't offend any corporations on the way. All of the above have scraped the web with no active consent — and that's largely fine, that's what putting things in common _is_, that's the beauty of the open information world we have the remnants of — but also actively evading measures people put in place to stop it and with absolutely no willingness to engage with the process. Extracting from the commons _is_ the tragedy of the commons.
It does not mean that enlarging the commons with the resulting tools is bad. The doctrine of original sin is a Christian concept I do not subscribe to. The concept of 'fruit of the poisonous tree' is a legal tool to fix power relations not a moral stance. They're worth understanding, but they are not absolute moral stances that are self-evident.
These are not harmless tools, but so too putting hard regulation and corporate, legalistic scrutiny on everything has a vastly negative impact: it is a yoke on human creativity and community to the reins of capital.
And, so too, disruption has huge costs. We are, apparently, committed to doing things the worst possible way. One can just hope that we capture the good too, because the ride has started and it's rather late to get off.

What the company had to say - #Starlink satellite incident: "On Sunday, March 29, Starlink satellite 34343 experienced an anomaly on-orbit, resulting in loss of communications with the satellite at ~560 km above Earth.
Latest analysis shows the event poses no new risk to the @Space_Station, its crew, or to the upcoming launch of NASA’s Artemis II mission. We will continue to monitor the satellite along with any trackable debris and coordinate with @NASA and the @USSpaceForce.
The event also posed no new risk to this morning’s Transporter-16 mission, which was designed to avoid Starlink with payload deploys well above or well below the constellation. The SpaceX and Starlink teams are actively working to determine root cause and will rapidly implement any necessary corrective actions."

For those wondering about the bizarre Apache helicopter flyover of a No Kings rally and "spontaneous" visit to Kid Rock's mansion, whether it was intentionally orchestrated (seems likely to me) or not, the effect was to send a public signal to the military that acts of allegiance to Trump and his supporters will get rewarded and shielded with impunity, even if they're flagrant violations of military codes and procedures.
It's another step in the fascist playbook of getting the military in line to support tyrannical acts, so it's very much not a "no harm no foul" situation.
As for why I think it's more likely quite deliberate: those helicopters don't fly without thousands of dollars of fuel, air traffic control (or you're creating some *serious* danger going without), and other logistical support. There's no way that level of risk makes personal sense to some random army helicopter pilots, just for the benefit of pulling a public stunt? These aren't random rookies in basic training, it takes serious skill and many hours of training to successfully pilot a helicopter at all. Why risk your entire military career on a stunt, and how did you convince an entire ground crew and air traffic control tower to get in on it? Having some kind of orders/encouragement/guarantee of impunity from above makes the most sense. I'd be 0% surprised if Hegseth directly gave the orders/go-ahead and the show of an "investigation into insubordination" that gets publicly cancelled by Hegseth personally is an entirely intentional result if not the main objective.
Also buzzing the No Kings rally was 100% intentional.

There are a lot of possible explanations for this:
Maybe the people who aren’t interested in AI also happen to vote for more sessions. (At a quick prod at the data, penalizing votes from people who voted for large numbers of sessions does not seem to change the conclusions above, but I haven’t investigated this thoroughly.)
Maybe AI is a more fragmented topic due to its newness, and interest has not coalesced, leading to a large number of small sessions. (But again, •total• votes for AI, including the whole long tail, were proportionally smaller.)
