“A decades-long increase in the number of employees on campuses who don’t actually teach — disparaged by critics as “administrative bloat” — is starting to reverse, new data suggests.”
Canadian Universities need to get on this too.

After nearly a decade of broken promises, Lora Kolodny reports that Tesla is finally revealing its next-gen Roadster, a concept first debuted in 2017 with numerous missed delivery dates. The long-awaited livestream from a SpaceX test site promises ambitious features like cold gas thrusters for hovering, though this high-end, low-volume model is unlikely to financially impact the company. The persistent delays highlight the gap between visionary hype and execution in the EV space. See the full article for more details. Praise to Lora Kolodny for this sharp, timely analysis.

Over the last few decades, I’ve seen a lot of people question why fanfic authors tend to be female, and why that space is so female dominated.
Usually the hypothesis is one of the following:
- Mainstream media is male orientated, so women write more fanworks
- Men read less in general
- Women enjoy shipping more than men
- Loneliness and a need to converse about topics lacking in mainstream mediaBut my hypothesis has always been a bit different…

🎮 After two decades, Call of Duty 3 finally gets a PC port—unofficial, but damn, it’s smooth and customizable!
Who knew a 2006 game could feel so fresh? Like getting a retro console on a modern PC—except this time, you can actually play it. 🎮 https://gigcitygeek.com/668904 -
Reductionist pharmacology spent decades attempting to isolate single active molecules, but biological systems evolved in matrixes.
The botanical entourage effect demonstrates that secondary terpenes modulate cannabinoid pharmacokinetics—altering receptor affinity and blood-brain barrier permeability in ways no synthetic isolate replicates.
Synergistic networks always outperform isolated variables.

In my decades-old unopened vault emerge drawings and sketches which sometimes evolve into paintings. In this case, "Towers of Babel".
What's unusual about this particular primary micropointillist painting, is that it was executed using an ordinary spray bottle rather than an atomizer or an airbrush, so the primary color spatters are really large, large enough to see with the unaided eye:

"Palestinians have for decades been pushed by Israel into ever-shrinking confines with two options left to them: submission or departure. The only substantial debate about this endgame in Israel’s election is about the pace and packaging of that expulsion and subjugation."

This dictionary has sat unused for decades since I bought it. Of its 3 languages I can more or less read two. But the words are given first in the 1 I CAN'T, so it's has been largely useless to me for ~20 years. I have the app, which gets around that problem, but that I am now #Reading or at least recognising enough #Urdu letters to USE this book is very exciting.
As is looking at the words on this list and being able to 'reverse engineer' them. Every single one of these Urdu phrases is ~100% the same in #Hindi so when I say the Hindi out loud, I can dissect the Urdu and now identify many of the individual letters. That at least SOME of Urdu's (beautiful) squiggly scrawls are starting to register as actual letters is the sort of #LanguageLearning dopamine hit we all love, and, as the third image says "I am very happy"
That image also shows why I'm trying. The words are EXACTLY the same, showing how close the estranged siblings are, but the Urdu script is GORGEOUS😍 -

"Looking towards the end of the decade, I expect trust and transparency information to become a normal part of our digital infrastructure, much like security certificates are today. It'll be an exciting period of innovation, but also one that requires significant collaboration and effort across technology, media, policy, and society."

i've been thinking about an idea i had a decade or more ago when i was on the highway and saw an "adopt a road" sign.
what about "adopt a band"? i'm thinking about older musicians that don't have a website or barely have one.
for instance i sit in on a couple of songs with a jazz band on weds nights in my town. they have one album and it's really good but no one hears it. what if the technical among us find these forgotten artists and make them a webpage. there are some free options out there (cloudflare, etc) and just gift it to them?
i don't know. probably just a hippy pipe dream but just think how much that would mean to them. as artists, we just want to be seen. we want our music to show the world who we are or were.
