Interview: Alex Gibney on “The Bibi Files,” Netanyahu’s Corruption Cases
Netanyahu is the country’s first sitting leader to face criminal charges, in these three cases: fraud, breach of trust & accepting bribes.
Netanyahu has tried to evade his trials by wrapping himself in the mantle of prime minister & waging endless war.
Alex Gibney's documentary is banned in Israel, but Netanyahu couldn't stop its screening at Toronto.

Good morning. 🌿🌿🌿

I got up early this morning, thanks once again to Ben; so, I made coffee and let the dogs out - in case you were wondering who. Now I'm up struggling while Ben and Charlie are fast asleep.
It is bundle up weather where I live in Louisiana (34° F or 1° C) which translates to shirt sleeve weather in Minnesota. Do you know what is weird? It is not surprising that the United States adopted the Imperial System of measurement along with the British Empire (British Weights and Measures Act of 1824), what is surprising is that after the rest of the world moved on to the metric system, the United States did not - change is difficult in the United States of America.
'Thus, the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet.' - Dave Barry

One of my peeves is when an API does something useful but with obfuscated names so you don't know it is there.
I just read through the entire (big!) API for #Golang's new slices package and it has exactly what I wanted:
slices.Values(slice) // slice -> iter.Seq
slices.Collect(seq) // iter.Seq -> slice
Why not slices.AsSeq() and iter.AsSlice()? Or even slices.Seq() and iter.Slice() since they are namespaced?
No, Values and Collect it is.
Days to completely forgetting this in three.. two..

“In 1969 Bob Gore set his mind to making PTFE more usable in a sheet form. The best way to do that was by stretching it. With thick oven mitts, he would slowly and carefully pull thin white rods of PTFE night after night. But the cords kept breaking. One evening he got so fed up that he just yanked a cord out of frustration. When he pulled quickly, he was surprised to find the PTFE cord stretched as wide as his arms. Bob had discovered the material that would become Gore-Tex almost by accident.”
