Huh, Recon has finally removed the Top 100 lists as they talked about last month. That feature did encourage attention seeking which wasted time for people looking for connection, so I'm glad it has gone. It does remove one driver for engagement with them. I'd be interested to know what went […]

Introducing Fizz (on top) and Truffles (below). They are half brothers, born a day apart to their respective mothers, two months ago. They are nervous but sociable and seemingly bribable. They will probably be introduced to the others after Christmas.

The two relics of exploding stars are black holes and neutron stars.
Both were discovered by women.
Jocelyn Bell discovered neutron stars, in the guise of “pulsars”, in 1967.
Since then, three Nobel prizes have gone to male scientists for their work on pulsars, but none to Bell.

We also have an obligation to mitigate the harms software systems can cause, and to manage accountability. That also depends on people understanding code.
More code in the world is going to require *more* people with coding skills, gen AI makes it more urgent that we teach coding.
