Book review for 2024: James Scott's The War Below: The Story of Three Submarines That Battled Japan

This is the story of three boats, three groups of men, who battled below and on the Pacific in WW2 and how they lived, survived, and died. It is a powerful and emotional book. @bookstodon @books

Fly-fix-fly is perfectly valid engineering except when you can't do the fix-fly part.

Fwiw SpX pre-flight check goes to eleven, because the 2nd or 3rd Falcon-1 launch experienced "slosh" in the upper stage ~ basically the engine got fuel starved because the propellant was going will-nilly. Preventable, but it was concern on the top ten list

Coleridge was fascinated by the aeolian harp ...

... an instrument that was played not by a human, but by the wind

A random-seeming input, with a system that transforms it into unpredictable and lovely outputs

(These days we'd call it "procedural art", lol)

Coleridge wondered if humans were, in essence, aeolian harps

The metaphor caught on: Romantics loved it

It’s time for a minute of silence for us fans. The Queen only has one album in the UK top 10 this week. (Plus four more between -, but Brits are failing me here.)

Also, this is probably a controversial take, but I’d prefer Reputation TV instead of a new album that will drop before the Eras Tour is over. If I were her, cackles in Laura Dern WHICH CLEARLY I AM NOT, I’d complete the TVs and drop the new album on the last day of the tour before taking a Very Kelce Vacation.

Donjuanme, to nba in Steph Curry hits a wild 33' 3 to put the Warriors up by 1 with .7s left in the 4th

Wilt Chamberlain

A decently long break

Michael Jordan

Kareem Abdul Jabbar

Kobe Bryant

Larry Bird

LeBron James

Shaquille oneal

Steph Curry

Giannis ant…eto…koun…mpo

Nikola jokic

I think the last two break the mold that today’s greats wouldn’t stand a chance in previous decades leagues, Steph may not have survived, but giannis and Nikola would’ve wrecked 90s basketball.

And goes to dirk nowitzki, because my grandma was in Sacramento for a doctor’s visit when the Mavericks were in town, and she got in an elevator with him (she had no idea), and she hit him with “you’re so tall, do you play basketball?” (She was like 85 at the time) and he was apparently super sweet to her, we had to look up who was in town that night and gave her a lineup of faces, yup, she picked out one of the taller people in the NBA! I bet he was a mountain compared to her!

I really love how my two iterations of "immiscible" by Geoffrey Crayon contrast with each other, yet also show their common generative process.
