I was talking about this elsewhere for other reasons but let me skip all that and just say that “Elements of Surprise” is absolute gem of a book, and if you are at all interested in novels, films, plot twists, puzzles, cognition, or surprise endings, you absolutely should read it. https://veratobin.org/publications/elements-of-surprise/

@codemonkeymike Shipping would be within the US, and I can help with shipping. Could you send me an email at mpanhans at gmail.com so I can provide more information?
Hi @codemonkeymike I know you do some refurbishing, linux-ifying, and donating of used laptops. I know of a non-profit org that could use one or two refurbished devices. Is there a way you or your organization could help? How can I get in touch?

The myth that social media harms kids drives me bonkers. So I tried to frame my thinking of risks vs. harms in today's rant: https://zephoria.substack.com/p/risks-vs-harms-youth-and-social-media

@strypey Watched Dogma last night, indeed very much worth revisiting this one!
@strypey You've sent me down quite a rabbit hole, apparently Dogma isn't available in the US on any streaming platform or even for purchase anywhere. And because of that I want to re-watch it even more now. I'm off on an adventure now to find it.
@strypey Oh wow, I had forgotten about that film. I might re-visit that one soon too now that you planted the idea.

A few days ago I wrote an uncharacteristically angry blog post about Mozilla and the state of the browser market.
I was going to just sit on it, but given the recent "news", I figure I might as well put it out there.
"Rallying behind an undeserving browser will not save the open web."
