Witnessing some big mountain changes recently. Warmer temps pushing snow off the rock layers underneath. Photos taken around Alpental, WA; an area known for its steep avalanche terrain at low elevation. First two from a few weeks ago, third one is from yesterday.

Scary. I wish I knew more about avalanche safety. On the list of things to learn.

Well suddenly Stanford Medicine is all concerned about what state I'm in when I video call my doctor.

No one there cared or asked for the first 6+ years of my care there.

Their docs are probably WFH too, so they have to be sure to connect you with someone licensed to practice in your state.

I used to drive 3 hours to literally sit in a parking lot just over the California border and have my video appointment. Don’t get care there any more - now my MEXFS doc is in Pittsburgh and I have to fly there once a year to see them i person so we can do video visits the rest of the year. Great system we have here isn’t it.

one of the things I'm enjoying about #avowed is how the companions interact with each other, instead of just following you around like companions in older games tend to. It's fun to listen to their little squabbles and jokes. Reminds me of all the verbal jabbing between Alistair and Morrigan.

Replacing Federal Workers with Chatbots Would Be a Dystopian Nightmare

The Trump administration sees an AI-driven federal workforce as more efficient. Instead, with chatbots unable to carry out critical tasks, it would be a diabolical mess

"This is terrifying. There is no “one weird trick” that removes experts and creates miracle machines that can do everything that humans can do, but better."

Chatbots are a story that sounds different than "shutting down the agency". It's the same goal and result. The difference is obfuscation.

Gerry McGovern reshared this.



Ugh.

Super cis perspective here, but I've come to find optional pronoun marking to be a really useful form of quasi-universal design—once again, a gift in which the struggles led by marginalized communities make life better for everyone. Quite often one just really can't assume to know someone's pronouns, especially if their name is from a different culture from yours or (like many names) is nonbinary. It never hurts to get some extra information.



Dramatic video footage of Palestinian rescue workers digging a young girl out from the rubble of her destroyed home in Gaza

The video shows Civil Defence rescuers working under torchlight and using hammers to slowly remove bricks and shattered masonry under which the child can be heard asking for her mother.

Pulled from beneath a large concrete slab that had pinned her head, the child suffered a large gash to her forehead and blood poured down her face.
