This afternoon, fulfilling a Mother’s Day request a day early, the family hiked the Cascades in Pembroke, VA. The trail transits up Little Stony Creek to this fantastic set of falls. We had the fortunate timing of being there not long after heavy rains. Perfect weather for it too.

Tech jobs are highly cyclical and lots of the gen AI stuff is ridiculously overhyped, and I’m hopeful that the wheel will keep turning and the professional prospects of software developers will improve again…assuming human civilization survives, that is.
But what I said above applies regardless. We should all be doing this meaning-making work all the time, even in the best job markets. In fact, that work is a part of •making• human civilization survive.

"A sharp fall in Labour's performance is accompanied more often by an above average Green performance than it is by a strong Reform performance."
"It should be remembered that Labour may often lose seats to Reform because it is losing votes to the Greens, while the Conservatives are losing votes to Reform. The net effect can be that Labour end up losing a seat to Reform."

Expected to be usually ~0.5/50%. How does one calculate the probability for a given length n that it's above or below a certain value, i.e. <=40% or >=60%?

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.

Yes, it is extremely important that OpenAI tells the authorities if obviously dangerous planning is happening. But we should also be asking a second question:
Should we as a society allow automated tools to be created that can help plan “scenarios involving gun violence”?
This is not an "age verification" question. As far as I'm concerned, a computer system should not be designed or be allowed to counsel people of any age on how to kill others. That is what ChatGPT is likely to have done here. There is no limit on what any LLM/AI system can say to users.

Finally something useful came out of the royal family: cbc.ca/news/politics/trump-kin

Trump's respect for King Charles possibly quashed desire to annex Canada, says royal commentator | CBC News
An upcoming book authored by a prominent royal commentator says U.S. President Donald Trump was primarily interested in annexing Canadian territory just above the U.S. border — and his respect for King Charles may have quashed his interest.

The Coast of Brittany (Alone with the Tide) 1861 A rocky sand beach with the sea breaking against the shore hidden beyond. On the left a woman lies propped against a rock, dressed in a puritanical black with white bonnet and shawl
Symphony in White, No. 3, 1865-7 Two young women in full length, white dresses lie on, and in front of, a white chaise lounge . They are the very definition of languorous.
Crepuscule in Pink and Green: Valparaiso - 1866 A twilight painting of a fleet of thistle ships, some at anchor, in a wide bay. The sea is luminous and pale. The sky above is fading.
Red and Black: The Fan (Edith Birnie Philip) - 1891-6 A woman in a fine red and black dress, full length, looks towards the viewer, head slightly back in a confident pose. The brush strokes have an unfinished quality, loose and impressionistic, but the subject's form is very well defined.

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."

Expected to be usually ~0.5/50%. How does one calculate the probability for a given length n that it's above or below a certain value, i.e. <=40% or >=60%?
