I grew up in Tallahassee and did Materials Science (and Amtgard) at UF.
Since then, I’ve been breaking glass, growing diamonds, and writing.
I have a wonderful wife and daughter, and I like Dnd, LARP, gardening, and robots.

This is a good analogy for AI. But it also describes humans.
We learn from those we meet, by the way their faces look and the questions they ask.
We grow by meeting these strangers & sometimes we mimic them, deliberately or not.
We are monsters in the forest, hungry for conversation and learning.

Pope Francis reminded the world that Jesus spoke for mercy while many modern Christian leaders call for cruelty
And Francis evoked the Church’s neglected tradition of science. His speeches on the harm done by climate change show data analysis as well as moral clarity.
May his memory be a blessing

I saw this cool-looking plant growing in my backyard, and the three-fold symmetry is intriguing. I think it’s a red trillium?

I should look to see whether there were similar memes at the last turn of the century. Darn flappers.

News hypes research that looks iffy in a peer-reviewed paper.
And I’ve fumbled first attempts to test theories in the lab, before the experimental procedure is nailed down.
And often the true scientific answer is there’s not enough clear data, we need more for a solid conclusion.
Such is life.
