Originally shot in Black and White, here is the colorized version of The Nicholas Brothers in one of the GREATEST dance sequences ever performed!

From the 1943 film, “Stormy Weather,” the clip also features Cab Calloway and Orchestra playing “Jumpin’ Jive.”

Childhood prodigies, The Nicholas Brothers don’t get nearly the recognition they deserve. They were truly astonishing to behold!

@dangillmor The op-ed's complaint seems to be that Signal doesn't gratuitously log everyone's communications content in case law enforcement wants it in the future. But neither does virtually any other real-time communications system - voice telephony, SMS, tin-can-and-string, or conversations in parks. Real-time communication is, by definition, ephemeral, whether encrypted or not.

Hello Mastodon. I'm a journalist over at @ProPublica where I focus on reporting stories involving data and code. You can check out my recent work at the link below. Drop me a line to discuss investigative reporting, messy datasets, or west coast bike routes. propublica.org/people/ellis-si

A front page article on the Washington Post telling people how to get started with Mastodon?

That’s a big deal.

Seeing as people are sharing the Tom Lehrer sheet music website (which I think has been around for a while), here's a TL factoid: he went to summer camp with Stephen Sondheim. Here's a video of the latter introducing the former: youtube.com/watch?v=hf-eIgFJg4

@ucsc Universities should really run instances of Mastodon on a subdomain of their .edu site. I would love to see a norm develop where universities provide mastodon accounts with their .edu domain to their community just like they do today for email accounts.

Hey #econtwitter I didn't get my Mastodon handle up on Twitter in time it seems. So I need to make new friends on Mastodon! Looking forward to interacting with you all here!
