Those are all great books/stories. But they are all off the mark for the AI bubble.

The book you wanna read is John Steinbeck’s The Grapes Of Wrath.

The movement (kinetic energy) is the driver with the atmospheric patterns. There’s no movement in the honey comb.

Unrelated though - that’s a packing efficiency thing.

Presumably to do with vibrations at a harmonic of the RPM?

Edit: oh, right, 12 point sockets

Standing wave. Earth kind of has one in the jet stream (3 peaks and troughs though, usually), but you can’t see it with visible light.

I don’t think they are meant to be good for anyone?

And strikes and other union activity were one of the drivers for the formation of the NLRB, right? (From reading wikipedia, I’m not American)

Sure, but I don’t think union power comes from the government… (Obviously the government influences how easy it is to organise, but they aren’t the drivers)

Learned how to tie like 4 knots properly, now I never have that problem.

I’ve been wondering if that’s gonna turn around, given all the wins in the US over the last few years (John Deere, Starbucks, Amazon)

In a tent 10m from a tree that got struck directly - some bark blew off it. I was bending over at the waist to pick something off the floor and involuntarily jumped immediately. My memory is that I jumped before I could have had time to react, so I think the electrical field made my muscles spasm which made me jump. Not sure if that’s possible or not though.

I guess it might have come across as escalating if the dad was homophobic as well as racist…

Nah, he’s the arsehole here.

Right, but I mean, the platform was originally designed without them in mind, and there’s no real reason why every piece of software needs to have every piece of functionality… I’m can see why they wouldn’t be prioritising it

I suspect I would love it if groups were in mastodon, but I’m not entirely sure it won’t backfire in some horrendous way (this is social media after all)

Mastodon doesn’t have groups?

“This kind of thing” being big picture dynamics of how to run a social media project.

I’ve also had a mastodon PR stall, but I think they get so many, many with competing demands, and have so few staff, that it’s not really surprising that it’s a bit mess on that front…

That first post is very good. I really appreciate the way he’s handled the first 10 years, and I hope he has fun doing whatever he does next.

Eugen has always seemed pretty clear-eyed about this kind of thing.
