At first, sexual harassment lawyer Megan Thomas just wanted to put up a modest ad above a garbage can in the back of a New York airport terminal to advertise her law firm's services.
It read:
“When HR called it harmless flirting … we called it exhibit A."
But when the airport authority rejected the ad copy and asked her to tone it down, she filed a lawsuit claiming her free speech rights under the U.S. constitution had been violated
A judge agreed,

Anyone good in statistics who can quickly answer a question? Assume I have an n-digit random binary number (for IT people: a bitstring). I calculate the number of 1s vs. 0s ("Hamming weight"). 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%? And how many inputs would one on average need to get at least one such outlier?

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

POV view of a narrow path with natural rock steps along the side walls of a canyon (near its entrance). The section is partially secured with a steel rope along the rock face on the left. Clear blue sky with the opposite side of the valley catching the last sun light of the day.

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.

From a recent vacation, a battery-powered trolley recharging at stations. It does not spend much time doing this, and yes, these things exist.

Looking up at a short bit of charging rail extending out from the roof-edge of a trolley station (in Newcastle).  A trolley is stopped underneath it and has its pantograph extended.  There's an incidental tree above all of it, filling half the sky.

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.

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.

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.

The first one was May 2025; many more to follow, unfortunately.
Based on daily values at Mauna Loa, the average was ~430.2 ppm, that's 2.0 ppm higher than last year.

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.

The Hurvin Anderson exhibition at Tate Britain is eye-opening for me. I didn't really know anything about him, and I'm loving the vibes, the subjects, the treatment and the materials (mostly acrylic on linen).

The Banqueting Palace, 2026
A looming building in a dark grey, rain soaked painting, with figures in the middle ground, on a bike, one riding on the handlebars, reflected in the wet pavement. Bare winter trees are in either side in front of a blue sky. 

Anderson explains: 'This is the painting of a memory. I wanted to recapture a walk home from school. The canvas is dominated by a dark sky. Devoid of people, it evokes the twilight of a suburban winter afternoon in England. A lot of the time th…
Passenger Opportunity, 2023-24, Reworked 2026
A huge panelled work featuring verdant scenes on the right and urban on the left. Subjects included slavery - lines of slaves in irons on the right, and family and community on the left. The colours are vibrant acrylic. At the bottom are images of departure, arrival and farewells.
Miss Sylvia, 2011
A striking, simple blue and yellow beach scene, with a single black woman in the middle, in a bikini, with her sun on her head and shoulders. The foliage behind her is portrayed by the absence of the blue background so the yellow wash shows through.
Untitled (Red Flags), 2004
The epic scale of the dark green jungle foliage behind this beach, stretching high above to fill the frame, dwarfs the crowd of people on the beach. There are red dangers flags in front of a red and white parasol. In the distance on the right, a line of fierce surf can be seen. For something so colourful and innocent, this picture of a busy beach gives me a surprising sense of ominous dread.

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."

My legs under a light pink blanket. Between my legs, a black cat is fast asleep, lying on her side with her head resting on her paws. Kind of blurry, as it was taken with a shitty webcam.
A better pic taken of the same cat on my legs. This one taken from above, with a cell phone camera. My silver laptop is partially visible, and Erie's white patches (her tummy, her back paws) are barely visible as well. Her eye is open just a slit (as she looks suspiciously up at my wife).

I'd forgotten Slow Streets used to have not just the "local traffic only" sign, but "road closed to through traffic" as well. Both gone now. Slow Streets got so watered down. (2022 photo)

Tree-lined residential street with a row of three posts at the entrance, extending from the right side about 1/3 across the roadway. From left to right, a flex post, a "local traffic only" sign with pedestrian and bicycle icons against a bright yellow background, and a "Slow Streets" sign with icons for various types of pedestrians and nonmotorized wheeled implements. On the sidewalk, above a diamond sign warning of speed humps ahead, a square sign with a white background says "road closed to t…

Also I think there's a 32-bit overflow or something in xfce4-netload-plugin because the rate shows 0.00 Mbps when I get above some threshold (not sure what it is exactly but it's in the 15-40 Gbps range)
