@MicroSFF I absolutely assumed that the robot was lying, but it was just extremely unsubtle. Like a toddler who tells you to close your eyes so they can sneak up on you.

As part of this year's #ArduinoDays2026 celebration, I'll be hosting a #workshop at @AHA, #AnnArbor's #community #makerspace! Join me as we learn the basics of #development with the Arduino #Nesso N1 and the #Modulino ecosystem. Then I'll help you create your own project such as a connected weather station, a digital tape measure, or digital dice. The first six registrants who attend this #free #event get to take home an #Arduino Nesso N1 and Modulino node! 🤘🩵🤘

@george I wouldn’t call it great journalism, but it’s better than nothing. 😀
@samfirke I don’t think that boring is necessarily good, but I think that writing a lot, even when it’s been excruciating, has really helped my son. I’ve also seen people move on too quickly in math-each subject needs to be truly mastered before you can move on. For instance, trying to learn division without mastering your multiplication tables will result in a poor understanding of division.
@steveklabnik.com I’m monogamous, and if there is a place where I can bet on polymarket being dominated by insider trading, please let me know.
@samfirke do you think the rote and dull aspects of education are separable from the useful parts? I have my doubts.

142 American cities. 17 years of city government voting data. One city council was a total outlier from the dataset, where dissent averaged 3x the next highest city every single year tracked.

That city? Ann Arbor, Michigan.

This is an eye opening must-read for #a2council watchers, and I'd argue, anyone who thinks about politics locally.

The City That Won’t Agree

Ann Arbor’s city council has the highest dissent rate in America. Seventeen years of data explain why.

@samfirke We knew he was shitty back then, and now he’s a different kind of shitty, but I still know every word to Cowboy by Kid Rick.

Also, the worst album I ever purchased was Uncle Kracker. What a waste of my Columbia Record Club subscription…..

@MegaMichelle a brief review of a search for “edible Archea” points to them being important in salt fermented foods, so add in some fish sauce.
@MicroSFF Up until it talked, I was as sure that it was an Eldrich Dog asking to snuggle 🥰
