Listen very carefully and you can just hear the rarely recorded mating call of the Aruba AP125. Majestic.
Today, a trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, a fantastic place to visit in the North of England, especially with weather as good as today's. A current special exhibition is A Tree In The Wood by Italian artist Giuseppe Penone. It's stunning work.
I work in a much derided building that’s long overdue demolition... it’s still nice to find the little architectural details. I love this little gap halfway up the stairs to let light through, something characteristically 60s about this.

Linux developers threaten to pull "kill switch"
Most of the internet could be affected as some Linux devs threaten to rescind code in response to CoC controversy.
THIS IS GOOD NEWS
Linux powers the internet, the Android in your pocket, and perhaps even some of your household appliances. A controversy over politics is now seeing some of its developers threatening to withdraw the license to all of their code, potentially destroying or making the whole Linux kernel unusable for a very long time.

42,241 more $5 donations and I can finally tell my little girl that we don't have to worry about our home anymore.
Momentum is critical to this fundraiser. Our last donation is nearing 18 hours old and it's getting cold.
This is the last of my Plan Bs. I've been trying to save this family for over 2 years now.
Have you got $5? Do you mind sharing this?

"... the sentiment is generally more positive for stereotypically-white names, & more negative for stereotypically-black names."
I urge you to read this if you do sentiment analysis of any sort.

Talk like a pirate day
The MPAA and the cable industry have a monopoly on mass media, exploiting not only consumers but low wage actors and stage crew.
The only ethical way to consume mass media is to share it.
I've recently noticed almost all of my toots which should contain the word "than", instead says "that". I blame my phone, which has also decided that when I write "did" what I really wanted was "didn't" which somewhat changes the meaning.
This is the kind of news we need. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-lancashire-45536348/magpie-and-whippet-s-unlikely-friendship

The Art Deco Bank of Ireland building in Belfast is absolutely superb. It stands empty, which is a real shame.

I've inadvertently started listening to an album on shuffle and the 'wrong' track coming on second has unsettled me sufficiently that I've had to go and do something else for a bit.
