Archaeologist and associate prof of Anthropology at Arizona State University. I mostly “skeet” (is that what we’re calling it?) about archaeology, baseball, stuff I cook, and the weather.
Someone just straight up plagiarized a former student's published work and submitted to another publication and posted as a preprint. It reproduces figures, large chunks of text, and has the same citations in the same order. MDPI of course... more to come.

I’ve eaten this a lot but never made it myself until tonight. Lemongrass chicken on vermicelli noodles with fresh and pickled vegetables from our garden. From the garden: lemongrass, lettuce, carrots, daikon, cilantro, green onion, garlic, cucumber, and chile. Super funky and yummy with fish sauce.

A couple of weeks ago I started messing with coding a game/app in Codex AI on ChatGPT. I was actually fairly impressed with what I could get it to do. I ended up making a prototype of a simple game almost entirely using Codex. Check it out and see what you think.

Plan your next vacation around the distribution of Roman road using this awesome new tool by lots of folks, including my colleague Tom Brughmans. They doubled the number of digitally compiled Roman roads. Seriously awesome! Also a cool intro animation. itiner-e.org

I can’t be mad at the whole series no matter the outcome. That was really fun to watch.

Holy crap this game…..

I really did not expect this series to go to game 7 but this has been great. I hope Toronto can keep their lead. One. More. Inning.

I wanted to mess with some coding things using Codex AI so I made a game. Check out the prototype and let me know what you think. Can you beat my high score of 10,112? mattpeeples.net/test.html

Super cool. My grandfather’s old International Harvester tractor that I learned to drive as a kid was looking rough but was given to a friend after he passed. They fixed it up and it’s now being used for local events. It’s named ‘Ol Cecil’ after my grandfather. Glad people can still enjoy it!

I think a Mariners vs. Phillies World Series would be the most fun (for me) to watch. It feels weird to have October baseball with no Astros.

More rain than all of 2024 in just 24 hours followed by one of the brightest rainbows I’ve ever seen

We got more rain in the last four hours than we have for the entire year before today.
