Your eyeballs do not deceive you.

We're producing more energy from renewable sources, but we're also consuming more for activities with no marginal utility (e.g., asking AI to make stupid images).

Today’s penguin is a modern souvenir from Delft in the Netherlands. It is an example of Delftware, a blue and white glazed faience that originated in the 1600s as Dutch trade to China expanded *and* around the time Dutch sailors started to regularly encounter penguins for the first time.
