Tootin' about photography (largely of the bird variety these days, using a Fujifilm camera), generative art (plus pen plotting), computing (increasingly rarely since there's plenty of that at work), & things.

(Not so) Obscure music Noah likes, #20: "Scatman's World" by Scatman John. Unironically! Just listen to the lyrics: "Everybody's talkin' something very shockin' just to keep on blockin' what they're feeling inside. [...] Scatman, fat man, black and white and brown man; tell me 'bout the color of your soul! [...] If part of your solution isn't ending the pollution then I don't want to hear your stories told." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ic2Cjw7kydI

going back in time to warn people that "computer science" isn't rigorous enough to withstand a cult that builds and worships a google translate that goes from question-shaped text to answer-shaped text

Bike commuting is alright.

(At least when the weather's nice and there's time for a bit of a side quest on the way home – today, I picked up a Too Good To Go bag from a bakery I'd never been to before, which set me up for visiting one of my favorite viewpoints in the forest.)

With Peter Thiel's company Palantir increasingly in the news, a lot of people are still uncertain what the company stands for and what its core values are. Basically, what you need to know is that in "The Lord of the Rings” only three people owned palantΓ­ri:

- the Dark Lord Sauron, the epitome of everything evil,
- his almost equally evil lackey Saruman, and
- Denethor, a depressive autocrat who finally ended himself in a failed murder-suicide.

That pretty much tells you what to expect.

Zohran Mamdani: "If you are a Mario Kart fan, government is Yoshi and philanthropy is the Golden Mushroom, that edge we need to beat Bowser on the Rainbow Road. To belabor this metaphor even further, Bowser is corporate greed in this scenario."

Back around 2011, when still-in-school me first got into taking pictures of stuff, it was sort of the perfect time for film photography: Old 80s SLRs and lenses were already cheap, film was still cheap, and development (possible locally back then!) would already include a CD with scans for no extra fee.

So for #ThrowbackThursday, here's some film shots from that time.
