It’s a rare feeling these days going to a concert and maybe actually pulling the average age down, if even just a tiny bit

Pardon the sudden intrusion, but I just want to inform that it is possible to create a Google account without signing up for Gmail.
It's just "conveniently" shoved in a corner in the webpage.

I keep reading diatribes about how you must trade off quality for development speed, so I thought I'd write my own diatribe :-). This speed vs. quality dichotomy is absolutely false. Buggy code is hellish to work on.

Vance's Easter visit to Rome clogged its streets with a 40-vehicle entourage. He also demanded the Coliseum be closed so he and his family could tour it alone. Tourists who properly booked slots in advance got screwed.
He's apparently the first to make that demand. Then he didn't bother to show up.

Nothing wrong with wanting to talk to people.
Everything wrong with framing their not wanting to talk to you, as some kind of failing on their part, and speaking with disdain about the expression you feel they've pasted on their face.
The concept of consent is still kicking some of y'alls behinds.

Unpopular opinion: I know it's cool to wear your earbuds and carry a book while pasting a disinterested, don't-talk-to-me expression on your face, but I like to talk to the person sitting beside me on airplanes. I liked it when we were willing to be inconvenienced by strangers.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.
From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.
