I’m in England, in a field of Barley. Today, I’m going to collect wild yeast under that tree back there, and I’m going to show how to feed and grow it until it’s ready to bake with. We are going to start at the very beginning, and end at the end.

No, Apple “AI,” Philip is not a bighorn sheep. He’s a relatively small (but intellectually enormous) standard Dachshund.
I know that there aren’t many photos of dachshunds on the internet for you to learn from so it makes sense that you’d get this wrong.

My series explaining the Standard Model of particle physics has 3 parts so far:
1) Particles
2) The Big Ideas
3) Qubits
Next:
4) Quantum Physics
5) Spinors
Then isospin, pions and more particle physics!
Alas, I've been slowed down by our kitchen remodeling. I want to pick up the pace.

Thoroughly enjoying this very approachable series from @johncarlosbaez.bsky.social on the Standard Model and quantum mechanics

I am so enormously thankful for essentially every person I know and have ever met, and for everything they have taught and given to me. The good, the bad, and the unspeakable. It all counts. The trick is to remember to pay that debt forward to everyone you meet from now on. ❤️

I hate that negativity gets all the amplification by social media algorithms.
Let’s amplify LOVE instead.
I am beaming love at you. Right now.
Fuck the haters. I defy you. I am beaming extra love right into your face. Relax and be loved.

When people are mean to you, remember the universal truth that it comes from their own fears, not from a deficiency in you. So don’t react. Chin up. Wait for the reality of their own internal conflict to take care of it.

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge
#Finland will begin to #Russia - proof its rail network, integrate with EU train infrastructure.
The Finnish government has announced the conversion of its rail network from Russian gauge (1,524 mm) to European standard (1,435 mm).

TIME Xpro-12 pedals saved my bacon today. Thank you, TIME engineers. Merci infiniment Let’s hope SRAM doesn’t destroy this legacy.

This used to be hard; now however NM has all the tax incentives for movies so it’s not even fun.
A movie that takes place where you’re from
trailer: youtu.be/dstrI59Xa1w
Visiting my dad for the holiday so I'm currently a 10 minute drive from these locations
