6歳とゴッホ展に行って夜のカフェテラスを3週した。私が撮った写真を見せたら、
6歳が｢僕が見たのはもっと遅い夜だよ｣と言うので、もう1回並んで6歳に写真を撮ってもらった。視点で見え方が変わるとは思わなかった。抱き上げて見せたら｢夜が明るくなったね｣と言っていた。

Three things had to line up for the stewards to overturn this.

1. The rule never says the timing system is the final word. The speeding rule (Article B1.6.3a) just says there's a speed limit, 60 km/h at Monaco. It doesn't say "speed as measured by the official timing system". Compare the false start rule (B5.11.1), which spells out exactly which system decides whether you jumped the start. Because the speeding rule names no source, the only question the stewards had to answer was: was the car actually going faster than 60? Not: did the screen say so.

2. The timekeeper proved its own number wrong. Pit lane speed is calculated as distance divided by time, and the official distance for that zone was 77 cm too long, because the barriers moved this year and opened a shorter line. The timekeeper found this itself with a laser scan after the race. Redo the maths with the correct distance and Gasly was doing 58.7 and 58.8 km/h. Under the limit, both times. The stewards actually rejected all of Alpine's own evidence; what convinced them was the official system contradicting itself.

3. The penalty could still be undone. Gasly never served his penalties during the race they were added to his finishing time afterwards, and that's the only kind the stewards have the power to erase. A penalty served at a pit stop is gone forever; nobody can give you back time you spent stationary. Alpine then filed for a review within the 96-hour deadline (Article 14 of the Sporting Code), with the new evidence the rules require. They were the only team that did.

That's why Gasly got his podium back and the other four drivers caught by the same faulty zone got nothing: all three conditions held for him, and only him.

i feel very obligated to let all the nerds know that there is a free game like geoguesser where you guess the location of origin and time period for art and historical artifacts. really high level:

It’s strange how you can speak things into existence by confidently stating them, but you can also take the magic out of things by verbalising them.

When the only option to decline is "don't use our service" and/or "delete everything you've uploaded before AI even existed", then there's no consent and it shouldn't be legal. Especially when thousands of artists who uploaded have died before AI existed.

🚨BREAKING: Atheist Artemis II astronaut Reid Wiseman says he has CONVERTED to Christianity after his trip to moon:

"There is no other explanation for what I saw and experienced. When we landed back on earth, I saw the cross and just wept."

if you’re a sensitive woman, you better involve yourself in charity work or helping/working with children. pour all your love and nurturing into the poor, the weak, and children. it’s better than feeling motherly toward evil people just because you see the child in them.

We see the tower of Jesus Christ illuminated for the first time!
The light show, starting from the base up to the illumination of the cross, culminated with a composition of lights guided by drones that traced the figure of Gaudí and the phrase “first love, then technique”.

Even beyond dating, I believe any type of short or long relationship is sustained by curiosity, from the mundane 'why do you like this hobby' to the major 'how are you handling grief over xyz'. And, mutual curiosity is the spice of great conversations.

the pigeon doesn’t understand your disdain for it; it coos for you anyway. the tree does not know you own an axe for it; its leaves sway in the sun anyway. the starving cat eats the poison you put out. it doesn’t know how not to trust. the earth forgives you, in spite of yourself

I'm finally reading Dune. This quote, which is in the first few pages, hits hard:

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
