This weekend I watched Mike Monteiro's "How to draw an orange" keynote and I think more people should. Because while it has some great "AI" criticism emerging from a deeply humanist and creative perspective I really enjoyed how it talks more about the structures that keep us from becoming ourselves. It's such a treat.

The new UK leftwing party founded by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana will be called "Your Party" after a vote by members, but its weekend conference laid bare bitter divisions
Sultana, who has been at loggerheads with Corbyn,
reignited tensions on Sunday with a blistering attack on those “at the top” of the party
after boycotting the conference’s first day in protest at the expulsion of several members belonging to the Socialist Workers party.

Here's the blogpost for my first #winter hike last weekend. It was good to start with a quick & small tour to refresh some of the basics. Now I feel prepared for some larger tours.

Many aquatic animals are described as "filter feeders" but this is not functionally correct since it would require water forced through a mesh. Instead, most zooplankton, including copepods, are suspension feeders. They create feeding current gyres using appendages, and use spiny modified ones (maxillae) to intercept individual algal particles and move …

Canadians interested in a Bourbon alternative for cocktails: this Spirit in Niagara mixed mash whisky (picked up from the LCBO last weekend) makes a decent Paper Plane. (It’s okay on its own too, but it won’t stop me from digging into my pre-embargo Bourbon stash.)
I’ve heard the Okanagan Spirits BRBN works pretty well too.

The goal is to claw back to a Champions League spot, which seems laughable presently, but the span from 11th where #LFC currently languish to 4th will be anywhere from 2-5 points by the end of the weekend. There are a lot of "ifs" required, but there is enough talent in the squad that it should be possible to make a decent push towards it.
The priority must be to shore up the defense. K…

Hey, this is my last photo from the hike last weekend. I didn't manage to capture the whole Vista so I tried to zoom in on some distant #mountains. In the mid you can see the #jochberg.
Usually you see epic photos from atop this mountain but not from the mountain itself.

I usually post in the evening today's post inthe morning for the 'Fotovorschlag' somehow broke my routine.
Anyways, I wanted to share this photo from my hike on sunday. It was my first winter-hike this season! Saturday was a great cloud inversion - which I missed - sunday greeted me (and QUITE some more hikers) with a plain blue sky.
I hope I can get out again on the weekend to test warmer socks.
Well - enjoy!

These are formed of tough proteins, incorporating minerals from the water and vary considerably by species. The shell offers protection and optimizes feeding on phytoplankton, bacteria and flagellates. These small pro…

For several reasons I didn't do mountains this weekend. But I enjoyed a nice cozy loop in the vicinity to the #kirchsee.
At this spot I made a quick stop and thought: #silentsunday! Not even wind. Just a lake, view, mountains in the distance and me and my bike.
