Black-and-white photograph of the interior of a traditional Chinese wooden structure. The image shows a high, intricately carved wooden ceiling with exposed beams and decorative elements. The ceiling appears aged, with visible wear and patina on the wood. Light filters through gaps in the roof, illuminating parts of the interior.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The question is not whether they "consider themselves" above the law. A system is what it does; if the elites are able to exist beyond legal repercussions then it doesn't matter what they claim in public.
This will only change when the people at the top are thrown in jail, and the fear of being thrown in jail for decades makes them behave differently.

headed to the post office to mail a couple mix tapes to ypsilanti and rockingham (va)

Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels.

Tape 1 (purple with green polka dots)

A solid violet-purple background covered edge to edge with dozens of hand-painted green dots, scattered in loose clusters rather than a strict grid — playful, almost confetti-like. Simple two-color palette, high contrast.

ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels.

Tape 1 (magenta/red top, red with painted loops on bottom)

The top panel (the label area over the cassette windows) has a pink-to-magenta gradient sitting above a red band flecked with small blue dots, like leopard-print texture. Below the cassette hubs, the second panel is a solid red field with loose, looping line-drawings in blue, purple, and maroon — they read like abstract scribbled circles/knots rather than representational shapes.

ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels.

Tape 2 (dark abstract/textured — reddish brown)

This one has a more painterly, textured look: a mottled rust/copper background (looks like it could be a marbled or sponge-textured paint job) with a large dark navy/black organic blob in the upper left, a bold red circular "eye" or button shape right of center, and a thin lavender line running along the bottom edge. Moodier and more atmospheric than the other tapes.

ALT by Claude
Hand-painted J-cards and tape labels.

Tape 2 (green/red with wormlike shapes)

Top panel: green field over a red stripe, straightforward color-blocking. Bottom panel: bright green background with two long, wavy worm/snake shapes — one red-and-pink striped, one green-and-lavender striped — winding across the panel, surrounded by small dark magenta polka dots.

A strong warm anomaly — locally more than 18 °C above the 1991–2020 average — builds over western Europe, then expands and migrates eastward, peaking over Poland, Germany and the Baltic region by 29 June, while the UK and Ireland turn cooler than average.
