Happy Valentine's to those who know their faults

An old favorite. Throwback to my favorite moonrise timelapse ever! As much as I would love to say I planned everything perfectly, that ferry timing was total luck. #Seattle #fullmoon

We're hiring influencers and by that I mean firefighters who influence the forest to no longer be on fire.

This is Ahmed Ali Aslam

In the 1970s, he opened a Pakistani restaurant in Glasgow. When a customer said his chicken was too dry, he invented a new dish: Chicken Tikka Masala.

It's now one of the most popular dishes in the world.

Aslam passed away this week.

RIP, uncle.

@blgtylr I was watching some BBC quiz show (I cannot remember which) and they were talking about lower frame rate choices for more recently filmed things make them look like a soap opera. We are used to faster frame rate now, then what they used in Casablanca, etc.

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Olive Garden commercials and then asked it to write an Olive Garden commercial of its own. Here is the first page.

First they’re sour, then they’re sweet!

Lemonade Berry is a native woody shrub that produces small fruit or berries with a tart flavor like a lemon. Sour you doin! 🍋This California Ground Squirrel seems to enjoy the flavor.

It is also kind of delightful to see that people are discovering him for the first time via this tweet. Lehrer is amazing and still with us at 94. He was a math professor who taught at Harvard & MIT, he worked at the NSA in the 1950s, and he also invented the jello shot. Really.

100000000% this. And once a century if we are lucky - hopefully longer inbetween.
