I've been hard at work in the last two weeks together with my colleague Ivonne (in the background). But we've been slowed down a little bit. Last week there was a heatwave of more than 30°C and this weekend it's been raining a lot. But we've got some extra time. So I'm not too worried. We're not nearly finished, although some people might think it is done :-)

By the way, the design is basically a watercolour I did a couple of years ago, with some minor alterations: https://mltshp.com/p/1N5L6

The official opening is on Saturday afternoon June the 13th. If you're in the neighbourhood of Rotterdam, drop by!

@nikkuneko Thank you! Yes, the line work is kind of the same as in my small drawings. I was quite confident I could enlarge this because my lines are kind of an extension of my anatomy (or at least that's what it feels like to me). But it was a nice surprise to see it worked out as well as I hoped it would!

Time for a New Helmet

Black bicycle helmet with dents and scrapes.
alt text
Black bicycle helmet with dents and scrapes.
Went mountain biking on my lunch break yesterday, as I often do, here in town. Trails aren't too crazy - lots of roots, some steep climbs, some loose surfaces - but overall pretty mild. I was just there Monday for my weekly group ride, and ride the place often enough I know it well. Good ride overall, with a PR on the first/biggest climb, and at a quick enough pace to add some extra distance.

Then as I was wrapping up, my head found a low-hanging branch that wasn't there two days earlier. It wasn't enough to cause a crash, but I definitely felt the impact, and put a couple of sizable dents and scrapes on my helmet. I still had a headache two hours later, and thanks to having a neuropsychologist wife who knows all the bad things that could potentially be, we made a trip to urgent care to confirm it was a mild concussion and nothing more serious. Symptoms were nothing worse than a headache, and I'm fine this morning.

The helmet did its job. The kind of amazing thing is I've been riding seriously enough to know I need to wear a helmet since the early 90's, and this is the first one I've destroyed. Usually they get replaced because of age, or when they get gross, and this one was quickly approaching both of those points. I'll be happy to continue with this mandatory replacement interval in the future.

WHAT TOWN CAN YOU RIDE TRAILS ON YOUR LUNCH BREAK?
cwhartman pro 5 hours ago
@shitleopard Granville, Ohio - one of many perks of living here and working from home. Not my favorite trails, but riding on dirt is always better than pavement. We also have a paved rail-trail when it's too muddy for off-road, and plenty of country roads.
cwhartman pro 5 hours ago
@ardgedee Always. My last few mishaps were caused by unexpectedly-deep gravel on the way back from the trail, clipping the support post of the guardrail the trial was paralleling, and running out of momentum on a narrow climb that had deep ditches on each side.

I have a coworker who has been in a world of mediocre shit for WEEKS thanks to a concussion. I am seriously hopeful you move on past this easily because he's super frustrated with his lack of progress : (
ardgedee pro 4 hours ago
@samh Concussions suck the most because treatment often amounts to "I'll give you a candy if you don't think about elephants at all for the next three years."

@shitleopard For a while in the 90s I was working in a professional building hard by a field that had been slated for a suburban development that never happened, so the local riders had done some clandestine trailbuilding, making sure that no part of the trail got within 50 feet of the road where the weeds got thin enough that you could see people.

It was pretty awesome lunchtime ride, particularly if the morning involved having to deal with a super-special client.
cwhartman pro 3 hours ago
@samh @ardgedee I got lucky, effectively it just feels like I have a sinus headache that comes and goes, which is fairly standard for me anyway. And no restrictions, I can ride again right away - though the doctor did advise not hitting the tree again.

Glad I didn't cheap out on a helmet, nor will I this time. My old one was one of the top-rated by Virginia Tech when I got it (still very highly rated). It was more of a glance than direct hit, I suspect the MIPs setup probably helped quite a bit.

@ardgedee If you'd like to give something similar a try, every year for the last few years friends abroad have been sending me a box for Xmas (like this https://mltshp.com/p/1O5YW) but I never manage to get through it all in time before it starts to dry out*. So I've taken to giving the leftovers a quick pulse in the blender to make 'em chunky and then make very heavily loaded vanilla ice cream/gelato/frozen yogurt with the chunks, and it's DELICIOUS.

*only because I'm a greedy gus who opens all the packages to try them all out at once instead of eating one kind at a time like a logical person

fwiw I've had three or maybe four of the licorices in that photo. The weirdest get was probably the Rheila, which I found at a flea market booth of a vendor selling Amazon discards*. $1 for a bundle of three packs... I keep one on my desk and treat them like breath mints.

*(Not the same thing as returns. Stuff that's near expiration or discontinued (like food, or novelty "Happy New Year 2024" bobblehead dolls, etc.) or goods sold by Amazon vendors who closed their accounts or got shut down or whatever. So, like, I'm not buying used food.)

Huh, interesting. I've also felt the pull to rewatch The Wire lately.

Someone - either Alan Sepinwall or at the AV Club - once wrote a review I've never forgotten, which was that "Deadwood", "Sopranos" and "The Wire" best represented America because they showed America at its different stages (slightly out of order in terms of when the shows aired): Deadwood its uber capitalistic, corrupt birth while also mired in a sense of community and wrong vs right; Sopranos in the middle of its lifespan, flailing about in the result of what won the aftermath of its birth; and Wire as its inevitable decline and death, showcasing how very much the sins of capitalism, lack of moral care, and thus the immoral choices in its birth led to its bitter end. At the time I thought it a rather over the top characterization - hey, I had come up through the 90s, when everything did seem like it could only get better, even though I was naive about the rot and Reaganism underneath - but now I understand that commentary in a way I didn't then.

Anyway, lately I've been thinking about that a lot. As great as The Sopranos was, I really do think The Wire and Deadwood capture America in a way very few pieces of media have . . . and of the two, perhaps in that desperate way we use media to undestand our world - only in this case I find my attempt clawing and mewling to fully comprehend what's happening - The Wire is to what I've returned.

@williwaw That's an interesting thought so I had to go look it up! Thanks for sharing. I think it was this podcast: https://web.archive.org/web...
cwhartman pro 9 hours ago
I'm definitely overdue for a rewatch as well.

I first watched The Wire right around the time Season 5 was wrapping up, after hearing a lot of "greatest show ever made" discussion in multiple places. I had heard it was bit of a slow burn, and my impression as I worked my way through season 1 was that the show was just a well-done, very interesting police drama - very good, but not quite living up to the hype.

*possible spoilers* Then a thing happened at the end of E10. That's when I realized just how much I had gotten to know (and care about, and empathize with) the characters. Not just the one the thing happened to, but the others who portrayed panic and fear in a way I don't think I've ever seen on a television show or movie. Never have I been happier to be watching something on demand where I could move to the next episode - that must have been absolutely brutal for anyone who had to wait a week.

I got this on the mail today. My final payment was made by auto-withdrawal yesterday. It is actually mine. 🎉

On another note, Google stuff is getting worse by the day. Google photos on my Pixel decided to be weirder than usual about cropping a photo to not include my home address or the car price on it and saving it. I used Firefox and tried to upload the crowd photo and the phone gave some error about the picture not being available. I thought it failed. I was wrong. It successfully uploaded the uncropped photo with my address and car price, and I didn't figure it out until an hour or two later. I deleted it but now I'm afraid the AI now knows where I live.

bezt pro 21 hours ago
Folks see what they see, but from the linked Guardian article:

“…The Face of Modern Life also offers works that are not so much reproductions of a person’s form as they are impressions based on the texture of experience and emotional temperature. Among these are Paul Klee’s May Picture and Vasily Kandinsky’s Improvisation 27 (Garden of Love II). Said to be inspired by a garden, May Picture offers an array of dreamy squares in soft colors, while Garden of Love offers vestiges of a central sun and several human figures that have been pushed toward illegibility.

“The Klee and the Kandinsky are paintings what we could easily call abstract compositions, not portraits in a traditional way but direct aesthetic experiences,” said D’Alessandro.”

"With this early daguerreotype in mind, I traveled across New York City and asked people of different professions how long it takes them to earn one dollar. I then used their responses to calculate the exposure time for their respective portraits."

@nikkuneko I have been winging this lovely stuff. I keep raw pumpkin seeds bulk purchased at Winco. If you want to get diwn and dirty, Costa del Sol, sells a foil packed refried black beans, product. It is maybe an 18 oz pack. The ingredients were good, healthful, they were 1$ per, in a bin. Their other product had msg, didn't buy. So I sautéed ~1/3 C raw pumpkin seeds with garlic, cumin, some medium heat, red chili powder, in extra virgin olive oil, until they are a little toasty. Add a couple of tablespoons more oluve oil at the end and the juice of a whole smaller lemon, put this in the blender, with either a can of black beans, or half the pack of refried black beans, or a can of refried black beans if the ingredients are OK with you.

Start the pumpkin seeds oil and lemon juice in the blender, add a little soy sauce, water, or more lemon juice to help grind the seeds, ( I like them smooth.) Then add the beans and blend until smooth, this should not be runny, and you can help it along with a spatula. If you have a food processor this is easier. Add as much hot sauce as you like, if you want this to last for a few days then I would skip the cilantro, or parsley, unless you cook it well with the seeds. The lemon juice gets cooked, so this ends up being a durable spread. I usually melt some Muenster cheese on top of the toast before putting on the hummus. But this is good also as a vegetarian meal. The packaged black beans had vegetable oil, rather than lard.

This is easy to vary, my current batch is made with some chili beans.

Nice! I can’t go back to gas cars. I even bought an electric riding lawnmower mower so great.
