Regardless of what you think of today's results, I think we can all thank the #hockey gods that neither of the close games ended in penalties. Just about any other way of deciding a winner - number of total letters in the names of everyone on the squad, a debate on Heidegger's hermeneutics, a figure-skate-off, whatever - would be better.

The 1990 Total Recall is one of my favorite movies, and I didn't know David Cronenberg was the original director for it and created the character of Kuato and all the mutants (although it makes perfect sense). The puppet itself was created by Rob Bottin.

Total Recall's mutant rebel Kuato is one of many impressive non-CGI effects that Rob Bottin provided for Paul Verhoeven's sci-fi film.

A ceaseless urge beneath all appearance; an impulse not merely to persist but to intensify; life as duration, as movement, as an unbroken unfolding in time. As a technology of becoming. Life as sequence - procedural quests of forward momentum.
A language underwrites the motion; lines on lines inscribing themselves across a dark field. Pulses like pixels, moving in canon. Constructions that branch, loop, and repeat. Patterns generate patterns, as though the law of existence were simply…

Tree planting can combat urban heat, but some neighborhoods are falling behind
Sydney communities may be missing out on crucial tree planting projects intended to combat urban heat, leaving western and eastern parts of Greater Sydney with less protection from extreme heat, a University of Sydney-led study has revealed. In a surprising finding, the researchers found that while Greater Sydney's total tree canopy increased by 4.2% from 1.514 billion square meters to 1.578 billion square meters between 2016 and 2022, this growth was not evenly distributed.

Another failure of #ChatGPT. I asked if a diagram had ever appeared in anything I'd published. It confidently gave me three answers, all wrong, before admitting that it couldn't find it. It even gave totally wrong Figure numbers. When I pointed this out, I got the usual dose of mock humility.

The Media Can't Stop Propping Up Elon Musk's Phony Supergenius Engineer Mythology

By Karl Bode
"CEO said a thing!" journalism is now utterly pervasive, and includes parroting billionaire and CEO claims with a total disregard for whether or not anything being said is actually true.
Despite the fact Musk has increasingly shown himself to be a conspiratorial white supremacist with a head full of room temperature butterscotch, the U.S. press is demonstratively un…

The Media Can't Stop Propping Up Elon Musk's Phony Supergenius Engineer Mythology
One of my favorite trends in modern U.S. infotainment media is something I affectionately call "CEO said a thing!" journalism. "CEO said a thing!" journalism generally involves a press outlet parroting the claims of a CEO or billionaire utterly mindlessly without any sort of useful historical context as to
