Science break.
This kayaker gets approached by an otter every time he visits a lake. The otter was orphaned after the mother was in an accident, and the man helped it throughout it's rehabilitation process to later release it back into the wild. Volume up.🔊

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

A carrot salesman and friend at the produce market in San Antonio, 1939. Everything here, from their clothing to their jaunty cigarettes to the Ford truck, is perfect. And can you imagine the labor that goes into pulling that many carrots, let alone stacking them in a truck? Taken by Russell Lee.

This is going to make you feel very small.

Fly away from the surface of Earth, past the Sun, out of the Solar System, through the closest stars, leave the Milky Way, to the cosmic web of galaxies in the nearby Universe.

The reason emails have a CC: line is because of a technology invented in 1801 by Pellegrino Turri: the CARBON COPY.

If an office memo was sent, and copies distributed, the additional recipients were noted on the CC: line, a format we follow today for electronic memos/emails.

Shrimp mislabeling is rampant. Shrimpers & consumers are paying the price. Misrepresenting the origin of shrimp on menus doesn’t just mislead customers who want to buy local & avoid shrimp raised with antibiotics & produced using slave labor & human trafficking. ambrook.com/research/sup...
