  11. Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 04-07-26

    I have a few new work assignments today (Sad!) but more than enough time (or just enough time) for our regularly scheduled edition of daily Pook-Emu Bee links. 1. OpenAI calls for robot taxes, a public wealth fund, and a 4-day workweek to tackle AI disruption (Tom Carter for Business Insider. April 6, 2026.) I came across an article recently suggesting ways the big AI players could modify their PR approaches. I said it was impossible. The people running them have no theory of the mind for […]

  16. Touching the Gowanus Canal?

    I recently came across Clive Thompson's Linkfest newsletter (hosted on Buttondown just like my own Newsletter Leaf Journal). Each issue consists of links he collected from around the web with commentary (also similar to Newsletter Leaf Journal, but with more links and commentary). I saved a good number of links from all the issues (mainly science and history related) that appeared in my feed reader after I added his feed. I also found a couple of websites of interest from his newsletter that […]

In this case, changing a pen name to hide a conviction for photographing a 15-year old student in violation of Japan's Child Prostitution and Pornography Act. 2.

  18. Carroll Street Bridge Proposals

    The Carroll Street Bridge is the second bridge crossing Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal, situated between the Union Street and Third Street Bridges. It is the most interesting of the Gowanus Canal Bridges in that it is the only wooden bridge of the bunch and the oldest of three remaining retractable bridges in the United States (see Untapped New York article). Unfortunately, it has been closed since 2021 for repair and meintenance work. The Bridge is reportedly reopening in the near future (I am not […]

  19. I’ve mentioned Postmark Cafe before in #Gowanus, #Brooklyn, #NYC

    They are great people and care about their community. They welcome everyone and have a free community fridge that they support.

    I highly recommend visiting and giving them your business if you’re in this part of Brooklyn.

  29. This #NYTMCollection photo shows the BMT 4 Ave—Garfield Place Substation in 1968 versus today. It is one of 218 substations in our system. Located on the border of #Gowanus and #ParkSlope in Brooklyn, the Garfield Place Substation is still in use and looks nearly identical today as it did in 1968.
