This is absolutely insane. Is there no charge of vehicular manslaughter in Australia? The punishment is not proportionate to the crime. Driver fined $2,000 and disqualified for killing Melbourne student Jack Davey - ABC News

"Should I trust the Dark Lord who attempted to topple the White City of Gondor? Or do I trust the Elf Queen representing the coalition of Men and Elves who defeated Sauron when he tried to enslave the Free Peoples, but could maybe do more meet-and-greets?" https://t.co/45xsVcw5CE

How is it possible to get so irritated with a bot? The @NYTGames wordlebot makes me angry regardless of how well or poorly I do. Today I solved in 2 guesses and it was like "oh, you just got lucky. Didn't show much skill." 🤬

If Saurabh Netravalkar, who had figures of 2-18 and bowled USA to victory in the super over vs Pakistan, wasn't disgustingly talented enough -- ( He is an engineer at Oracle and an MS in CS from Cornell University.) he's also a damn fine ukelele player. (video from his insta)

Sad to hear of Alice Munro's passing today. I still remember Moons of Jupiter, which was the first story of hers that I read. Such a powerfully evocative writer, who proved that short stories are an equal form of literature.

Egg white omelette but make it with butter and pimento cheese and have it at lunch with a drink. The perfect mix of healthy and so bad for you. 😂

I will never understand high pile carpet on airport terminal walkways. Absolutely nonsensical decision from a customer perspective.

Taylor’s reverie is interrupted by a phone call. It’s Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL and, as of five months ago, Taylor’s indentured servant. She answers on the last ring. “You don’t call me,” she says. “I call you.” https://t.co/7U5ymotI4F

Gaza becomes ‘a graveyard for children’ as Israel intensifies airstrikes In just three weeks of war, the number of children killed in Gaza surpassed the total number killed across all the world’s conflict zones in any year since 2019.

A child is killed every 10 minutes in Gaza, Save the Children says. Families are mourning not just their own losses, but what feels like the loss of an entire generation.

One reason (among many) that VC firms of different shapes & sizes have refocused on seed/early A in this tough capital market -- the multiples on narratives & promises is infinite while the multiples on evidence & traction is painfully finite.
