Has anyone designed a "Gerrymander It!" board game or mobile game?
Although more people now recognize what a powerful force districting can be in politics, to really get viscerally angry about it helps if you've tried doing it.
It might work best as a mobile game where you'd draw the map with a time limit then an election would run (with some random variation) and you'd see if you won.

"Wow! China Airport face recognition systems to help you check your flight status and find the way to your gate. Note I did not input anything, it accurately identified my full flight information from my face!"
Its been a little over a month of piano lessons now. Things are progressing nicely, but probs because I have a bit of musical background already. Hopefully I can get to chords soon and start playing songs I know.
I will probably start Japanese lessons too…5 minutes of duolingo a day and reading names on monster strike isn’t cutting it, especially with my trip to Japan coming up in April. Hopefully I can practice with my brother since he knows it conversationally.

I watched Love Exposure today.
It was a really good movie, I think it might be my new favorite! Its 4 hours long but I loved the main character a lot. I think I found him a little relatable…
I’d recommend to anyone looking for an epic film to commit their afternoon to watching.

@futurebird I once heard someone refer to it as "the hydra known at Nature" and now I can't help thinking of it that way. There are just *so many* Nature X journals, only a fraction of which are highly regarded in their field I think.

#Zoom just changed their terms and conditions to include using anyone's video and audio for training #AI with no option for opting out. You too can help train #deepfake s!
Living with a disabled spouse, I used Zoom a lot to get through the ongoing global pandemic.
What alternatives are out there for remote teaching/meetings?

Do you play Monster Strike, Fedi?
