USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.

Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.

I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."

"They just come with the table, man."

They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.

This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.

I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.

"Did we…?"

"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."

Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.

My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."

Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.

I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.

Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.

I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.

Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

How do real NASA missions inspire and inform science fiction, question? Amaze! 🪨🧑‍🚀

The creative minds behind "Project Hail Mary," the upcoming film based on Andy Weir’s bestselling novel, visited JPL yesterday to talk about the making of the movie and the collaboration between scientists and creative media.

[VSC @VSCPR]

Even though gen AI is the new kid on the block, building AI brands has been a labor of the past 10 years at VSC.

@vijaychattha and our first USC+VSC tech comms fellow, @comms_dany, collabed on a piece for @PRNews on how to build AI and automation brands.

[Devon ☀️ @devonzuegel]

I once heard Hans Zimmer say something like:

"Every time I'm hired to write a movie score, I'll feel like I'm making no progress for weeks. I'll feel like I should go to the director and confess that I can't do it... but then all of the sudden it starts to come with me, bit by bit"

If Hans Zimmer feels that way, one of the greatest movie composers of all time, that probably means everyone's going to feel that way at some point

I try to remember this whenever I'm feeling stuck on a project! (Easier said than done though)
