  1. I've said it before, Midnight Diner is one of the best TV series online right now. No calmer way to end the day than by watching an episode in bed before falling asleep. 🍜

    "Goofy and gently sad, Midnight Diner liberates you from angry politics, trashy reality stars & dramas about serial killers. It lands you in a universe where, even if bad things happen, the world is manageable and essentially benevolent."

  2. Omoide is the beautiful song by Tsunekichi Suzuki that opens every episode of Midnight Diner. Sets the perfect mood. 🎶

  3. After quite some time, I have found a TV series that I enjoy.

    "Midnight Diner" is a Japanese series from 2009. An episode or two watched before bedtime has become a calming ritual to end the day. Highly recommended. 👌

    Available on Netflix.

  4. "Power Slap, America’s first official slap-fighting league. Slap fighting is simple. Two competitors, usually beefy men, slap each other. Hard. The bout typically ends when only one of them is conscious."

  5. An excellent introduction to the Human Cell Atlas project which is trying to map every cell type in the human body.

    "Take a single cell, extract its mRNA, and measure the amount of each [mRNA] transcript. The cell thus analysed can be put at a location in a mathematical space that is described not by 2 axes, as on a standard graph, or even by 3, as with a 3-dimensional graph, but by 20,000 axes, 1 for each protein-coding gene."

    Bonus: the article has gorgeous photos of the Alto in use at Xerox in the 1970s.

  9. Parkinson's law of triviality:

    "Refers to an imaginary committee whose members are asked to decide on proposals for a nuclear power plant and a new bike shed. Lacking expertise in nuclear power, the committee nods the plant through. Where everyone is an authority, like the bike shed, endless debate ensues."

  10. "In the 90s, many of us thought that the internet driving the cost of international communications to zero will make the world a better place. We did not know then that the manner in which the human brain processes information in a social context can have dramatic political consequences. Today we know better. Given that the impact of technology is fast, global and perhaps irreversible, the case for a deliberate approach is even greater."

  15. @miah Lol. I met one of them in a park who told me something similar. And I told them “Like you said yourself, God will solve EVERYTHING soon anyway. That’s awesome and it doesn’t look like he’s waiting specifically for me to press the switch on that.” 🤣

  16. Spotify has been a game changer for listening to Kannada movie songs from my earlier years. Been curating a playlist of songs and it has been a true delight listening to them on every device and in the car. 🎶

    Since Spotify shows the singers names, I've only now realized that S Janaki is the female voice in 99% of my songs and S. P. Balasubrahmanyam the male voice in 90% of them. Utter dominance of my playlist by these two! 🤩

  21. @sethmlarson It seems to fail on most ABNF files. Could you share what ABNF input you provided to get the railroad diagrams you had in the post?

    I tried running it on the `examples/abnf.abnf` it ships with and that produced nothing:

    kgt -l abnf -e rrtext < examples/abnf.abnf
