Songs That Should Not Work on Instagram: "Beatboxing is the art of creating music and rhythm using only your mouth, lips, tongue, and voice. It’s often used to imitate drum sounds, basslines, and other musical effects — all without instruments. Skilled beatboxers can layer sounds to mimic a full band, producing beats, melodies, and even sound effects at the same time. Beatboxing started as part of hip-hop culture in the 1980s, with artists using it to keep rhythm for rap performances. Over time, it’s evolved into its own global art form, blending music, creativity, and vocal control into one impressive performance skill."

Nano Banana Pro is great at following instructions, generates interim "thought images", and makes full infographics with well-rendered text from a short prompt (Simon Willison/Simon Willison's Weblog)

Hey all, there are some photos from a hike in the #schwarzwald
Actually we thought that it would just take us less than an hour - but it wasn't simply a straight walk :-D
It was raining from time to time - which was indeed pretty cool. A) there was noone around except us and B) the colors were often just insane. Fully saturated green, the brown from the wood - and sometimes…

Sure it's on linkedin, but I think this will resonate with everyone building internal tooling #tech #softwaredevelopment

The difference internal tooling makes
“The impact is harder to see.” This is what a fellow product manager once told me when I shared that I work on internal tooling.

“That’s why I’ve come to realize that statements about the future aren’t predictions: they’re more like spells. When someone describes something to you as the future, they’re sharing a heartfelt belief that this something will be part of whatever comes next. “Artificial intelligence isn’t going anywhere” quite literally involves casting a technology forward into time. How could that be anything else but a kind of magic?”

Congratulations to everyone who sat through the full 195 minutes of tonight's music marathon. Hope you've still got some neurons left!
Until next time. #TOTP

This article just cited the Finnish Michaux study. There are others. The whole "industrial renewable energy capture systems" wager has inadequate foundations, which is why the only way is to use much less energy. Hence #degrowth See my article and linked report for the UK case.

Is There Enough Metal to Replace Oil?
A key issue for the accomplishment of renewables is power storage because of the impact of wind and solar intermittency, both of which are highly intermittent. Most studies assume gas will be the buffer for intermittency. Other than using fossil fuel such as gas as a buffer, an adequate power storage system to handle intermittency will require 30 times more material than what electric vehicles require with current plans, meaning the scope is much larger than the current paradigm allows.
