Today I had multiple nuanced conversations on here that I learned from, enjoyed, and didn't degrade into yelling matches despite disagreement. Weather or not Bluesky is the biggest platform forever or whatever, I don't care; it's pretty good rn.

Going to not buy anything from Amazon while this is going on! Minor but symbolic solidarity is still important imho
BREAKING: The biggest strike against Amazon in U.S. history is happening right now.
The Teamsters are picketing facilities across the country.
The union has organized workers at 10 Amazon locations AND they're putting up picket lines at hundreds of other Amazon sites nationwide.

New York has been proud to have some of the strongest climate legislation in the country driven by Dem supermajorities in the legislature. But now Gov Hochul needs to act to give the laws teeth and actually live up to the state's climate goals!
NY Gov Hochul and her admin promised she would propose the big cap and invest program regulations by the end of the year. ⏰
Yet extremely quiet right now. 😬
We desperately need a strong system. It’ll be a giant surrender to gas interests and the rw if she’s backing off. 🤦
A little context: 🧵

Pelosi (84), who is worth over $250 million, is trying to block AOC (35) from taking over the oversight committee. Instead, she’s lobbying for Gerry Connelly (72) to get the position.
Democrats need a new generation of leadership.

Pelosi is trying to block AOC from becoming the ranking member on the oversight committee.
It’s time for the Democratic establishment to step aside.

I'm shocked how much people my age have started sounding like our teachers when Wikipedia first came out. "Any fact you don't find in a book is a lie!" they used to say. And now that we are in our 30s, I guess it's our turn to condemn the latest up and coming tech.
This past week, I met so many scientists who use ChatGPT regularly, and I'm completely shocked and dismayed. RIP to originality.

I really like old herbarium illustrations. Last year I wrote some software to parse, score, and process the Oxford 400 herbarium dataset to remove the paper background and select the best photos.

I didn't want to spend $750 on a vacuum seeder. So I designed one that can be made on a 3d printer for $5.

Cut down this dead white pine with my axe and made Amanda some wood disks for craft supplies. Using axes to cut down trees is not very practical, but it is a fun and very satisfying late fall workout.
