Places I've been to: #Dresden July 2024 (Alice Cooper show).

Very nice city, at least the part I got to see. Trees, shade, water https://dresden.de/trinkbrunnen

When I arrived, 2 stands caught my eye in front of the train station: a strawberry one and an ice cream one.

I did en up getting an ice cream the next day before I left. Top scoop is white chocolate with quite big bits of ruby chocolate - this was something new! Bottom is lemon.

Until this week, I had no idea baby flamingos 🦩 were grey and so adorable! These hatched in June.

I also didn't know they can live long lives of ~50 years.

And another fun fact: did you know that joint in the middle of the leg (that you see) is their ankle, not their knee?

The giraffe 🦒 and the truncated icosahedron... or ⚽️

... which is one of the shapes the morphing sequence in this
@codepen demo goes through https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/qBaROMG

It's not "I can code the giraffe feeder" - it's "I have coded the giraffe feeder!" 😼

First time over a decade ago even! https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/DWMpeZ

Pure CSS morphing polyhedra #2

###What's happening Dodecahedron gets truncated to a truncated dodecahedron, then rectified to an icosidodecahedron, which then gets reverse rectified...

@anatudor didn't know that about their knees.
@anatudor and they rest/sleep standing on one leg! I forgot that about them! Charming birds. Thanks for posting the photos!
