I thought it was a miracle that Rachmaninoff was appearing with Trifonov and Babayan. No wonder it's sold out.

I always found it fascinating to look at mine. The textures, colors...

Another hero of my youth passes from the scene. RIP, Willie.

Lamarckianism always seems like an ideological commitment more than an scientific one. I don’t follow epigenetics too closely but a lot of people in the field seem to spend a lot of time over their evidentiary skis.

Jesus. 😟

🤦‍♀️

I have no words.
smh

Woah.

Arity uses the data it collects to create driving scores and then sells them to auto insurance companies, which use the data to set rates for drivers using the apps. Arity claims it has over 40 million "active connections" to US drivers, who have opted into sharing their driving data through "consumer mobile apps, in-car devices, and connected cars."

So in other words, it's not generic data about how "people" drive, it's data that says specifically "this is how Mary Smith of Springfield USA drives."

Wow.

I'm glad I don't use any of those apps. And I have also consciously avoided those apps that car insurance companies try to get you to install as well.

But isn't it just a matter of time before GPS apps start doing that? I use Google maps all the time, and I'm logged in so my profile data could theoretically be matched with any tracking the map app does.

Brave new world.

smh.

I got Bandle today w/ three hints (I believe drums, guitar and synth).

Yes, the Dawkins mentioned is probably the one you thought of.
"Richard Dawkins FRS FRSL (born 26 March 1941)[3] is a British evolutionary biologist, zoologist, and author."

Met Mary Anna at Wakulla Springs years ago. We took a ride on the river that flows from the spring. We were "attacked" by
the manatees, the alligators ignored us.
We saw no night crawlers.

This horse might want the heavy metal music turned off because it’s annoying as hell. 😄😄😄

Oh dear! You're probably right! 😁

@Jodi Neat!!

I was wondering if they would compare this to the tobacco warnings. ETA i mean, i was wondering what they found from the tobacco warnings and how this would compare.

I’ll be curious to ask my students what they think about this when the fall semester starts.

It’s chilly over here on the west coast, but up to 88 at the end of the week. I turned the furnace back on last night…
