Slowly but surely transitioning from introvert to misanthrope. Lefty. Nerdy. Old. Egg shaped.
This is not a fully formed thought, but I have a visceral reaction to seeing coverage of Altman’s firing treated as a top-left news headline. It feels part of the hagiography of these dudes, that we cover them like kings and we cover their companies like nations, but somehow we don’t cover what their tech is going to do to real people.

Happy Four Seasons Total Landscaping Day, to all who celebrate.

28 October 1940 | During the afternoon roll-call a prisoner was found missing. A penal roll-call was ordered. Prisoners had to stand “at attention” in their uniforms but without coats, jackets, hats or shoes. It was sleeting the whole day.

The roll-call was called off around 9 pm after the missing prisoner was found. He had tried to hid from the rain and died in his hiding place in the camp.

After the roll-call 120 dead, unconscious or sick prisoners were collected from the roll-call square.
