  1. Bit of an interesting breakdown this morning, the fuel hose retaining clip on my bike managed to work itself loose and disconnect just on approach to a roundabout. Luckily no fire or anything dramatic, just a small bit of spilt fuel and a very sweaty me after taking fairings off to access it #motorcycling #breakdown

The new winter peak #temperature was logged by the #Argentinian Esperanza base on the #Trinity #peninsula on 6 June amid a protracted #heatwave, when the maximum daily temperature exceeded zero degrees for three consecutive weeks."

  5. “Science explains how things work, it doesn’t always answer why they exist”*…

    Still, it’s cool to know how things work. In a continuing series of “tear-downs,” Bryan Macomber obliges in the most elegant of ways…

    Are you curious why a clicky Pen… clicks? How a Zippo Lighter flips open? Or what lives inside a Pez Dispenser?

    I’ve illustrated tear-downs and break-downs of everyday products that you may have taken for granted. Let’s take a look inside and understand how they work. Click around, have fun and maybe learn something new!…

    An illustrated celebration of the engineering around us: “Mechanical Pencil.”

    ###

    As we muse on the mechanical, we might recall that it was on this date (according to most sources, though a few cite the 12th or the 19th of June) in 1902 that Philadelphia restauranteurs Frank Hardart and Joe Horn opened the first Automat in the U.S. A cavernous, waiterless establishment that was a combination of fast (but fresh) food, vending, and a cafeteria. Customers put nickels into slots beside small glass-doored compartments in the Automats and turned a knob. In the compartment next to the slot, food revolved into place for the customer to receive through the glass door.

    Horn & Hardart Automats expanded into a chain reaching Manhattan in 1912. With their uniform recipes and centralized commissary system of supplying their restaurants, the Automats were America’s first major fast-food chain.

    For more on how they worked, see “Meet Me at the Automat” and the charming documentary “The Automat.”

  7. A quotation from Shakespeare

    For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds;
    Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Sonnet 94, ll. 13-14 (pub. 1609)

  10. Fine-Tuning on My Own Commit History: The Model Now Writes Bugs in My Style

    Because when you fine-tune on your own history, you are not training a model to be better than you.

  12. This Is What a Personal Surveillance System Actually Looks Like

    You stop thinking of it as surveillance. It becomes “the system.” Just part of how things run.

  13. You’re Closer to Making Money Online Than You Think

    There are people making money right now doing things that would sound almost insulting if you framed them honestly. Renaming files. Cleaning data. Converting formats. Generating variations. Organizing chaos into something usable.

  14. OSINT Isn’t About Skill Anymore. It’s About Systems

    There’s a moment, if you spend enough time in this space, where your attention changes. You stop looking at individual data points as things to extract. You start seeing them as inputs to a larger structure.

  15. From Raw Data to Actionable Intelligence Without Leaving My System

    The room is quiet except for a fan that shouldn’t be that loud. Not the kind of noise you notice at first. It creeps in. A low mechanical breath that suggests something is working harder than it should. On the desk, a phone face-down, a laptop half-closed, a terminal window still alive somewhere beneath the sleep state. Nothing dramatic. Just the kind of setup most people would call normal. It isn’t. Most people think intelligence happens after the data leaves their system. They ship […]
