Look at my av. I made that yesterday. Tagliatelle nerano. Gonna be a new staple in my routine when I have zucchini.
@bretdevereaux.bsky.social wrt yesterday's article - are you familiar with the concept of "pressure" in a boxing/combat sports sense? I see a significant overlap with the model you're discussing and the way "pressure fighting" works.

@allelitewrestling.com just FYI I'm really cranky that I can't get a winnipeg presale ticket, even though I have a code, because I don't have an AMEX.

a big reason that adjunct faculty and contingent university staff don't organize is that we're so isolated from each other. The indignities we suffer in the role are suffered alone and they leave me wanting to just walk away from the profession rather than fight for its future.

If the auto industry had done over the last 100 years what computing is doing, we'd all be driving 36-cylinder engines with 1950s fuel efficiency in vehicles that use 75% of their power to haul around boxes of magazines that you're not allowed to remove because someone paid to put ads in the car.

@techconnectify.bsky.social I was thinkin' about car horns the other day. They're weird. How do they fire and cut off instantly without spinning up or down like impeller horns? Seems like a TC-suitable topic.

I'll probably look it up myself eventually, but you might find them interesting too.

it has been a while since i made spaghetti allo scamarro, one of my favorite Neapolitan pasta dishes. My sautee pan has bread crumbs, olive oil, raisins, pumpkin seeds, capers, and kalamata olives. And chiles.

Oh thank goodness. It looks like it actually is possible to disable Gmail/Google Docs' AI nonsense with a non-Workspace account. I'm sick of AI getting crammed into every product in the stupidest ways possible, and Google's one of the worst offenders. Info here:
