I've been listening to Rutherford and Fry's "Complete Guide to Absolutely Everything". The bit about the Library of Babel (https://libraryofbabel.info/) has just melted my mind. In particular the image archives (https://babelia.libraryofbabel.info/about.html) which contains every image that has been or could be created on a 640 x 416 canvas with 4096 colours. #maths #library #hannahFry #adamrutherford
The book, btw, is very good.

É por isto que prefiro protetores solares de cartão para o carro e usá-los do lado de fora do vidro. Em casa, é fechar estores ou portadas, para além das janelas e cortinados.

PS: Em vez de película de alumínio, como é sugerido, é preferível, na minha experiência, uma toalha ou um cobertor. Uso toalhas velhas nas janelas da minha autocaravana (hábito que copiei de outros caravanistas) e fazem maravilhas!

An interesting and accessible look at #OpenClaw and #AIAgents by #HannahFry.
I only wish she:
1. Changed her SMTP server to not actually spam everyone.
2. Referred to the agent as "it" instead of "her".
3. Didn't end with "these things are getting better fast" when nothing is being done about the fundamental underlying flaws with this entire methodology.

Fascinating short video about Copper nanotubes by Dr Hannah Fry
This could video could benefit from alt text as it displays an image without explanation.
The thing is that nanotubes is generally abbreviated to NT. The symbol for Copper is Cu. Bear in mind that English is not the first language of the Chinese scientists who wrote this paper. They could have abbreviated Copper nanotubes to NTCu, but instead they decided to put Copper first. So we now have CuNTs as the abbreviation.

Škoda steps in to the battle between bike bells and headphones
I did nearly get clobbered by a cyclist on a footpath on Monday, maybe they could've done with having one of these bells.
