Le notizie sulla imminente fine del nostro mondo sono fortemente esagerate.
Money quote: "Despite the hype around today’s possible geomagnetic storms, there’s no reason to panic.
Electrically-charged gas ejected from the surface of the Sun will collide with Earth’s magnetic field sometime today, sparking geomagnetic storms. NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center expects the storms and their effects to be minor. However, the weird solar phenomenon behind the storms, called a cannibal cloud, is terrifying and awesome."

Il business dell'annotazione dei dataset per le AI. Una inchiesta con gli attributi, di qualche settimana fa. È uscita su Intelligencer e The Verge, pubblico entrambe le versioni per evitare che una vada "al buio" a un certo punto.
Money quote: "Then, in 2019, an opportunity arose: Joe could make four times as much running an annotation boot camp for a new company that was hungry for labelers. Every two weeks, 50 new recruits would file into an office building in Nairobi to begin their apprenticeships. There seemed to be limitless demand for the work. They would be asked to categorize clothing seen in mirror selfies, look through the eyes of robot vacuum cleaners to determine which rooms they were in, and draw squares around lidar scans of motorcycles. Over half of Joe’s students usually dropped out before the boot camp was finished. “Some people don’t know how to stay in one place for long,” he explained with gracious understatement. Also, he acknowledged, “it is very boring.”"

Un medico si è sottoposto sperimentalmente per un mese a una dieta basata su cibi ultra-processati. E si è ammalato. Da qui è partito uno studio ma anche un interessante articolo che spiega perché mangiamo male anche quando pensiamo di mangiare meglio o almeno meno peggio.
Money quote: "If ultra-processed foods had the same effect on everyone, wouldn't we expect to see the whole population gaining weight and becoming unhealthy or do people respond differently?
I think there are two groups of adults. Many people will be able to have a relationship with ultra-processed food that is somewhat like a relationship with alcohol. A lot of people can just enjoy two glasses of wine or a bottle of beer on a Friday night, and that's fine. They can have that relationship with it. But many people will recognize that actually their relationship with these food products is much more addicting in nature."

La storia di un bel gruppo di plane spotter e di altre cose collegate, ovviamente negli Usa. È un mondo.
Money quote: "Situated right next to the longest runway at JFK—and outfitted with a full covered bar serving up food and cocktails and a turquoise infinity pool should you need to cool off—you couldn’t find a better planespotting vantage point than the rooftop at the TWA Hotel. And given the building’s history, it’s no surprise. In 1962, Finnish architect Eero Saarinen designed what was then Trans World Airlines’ main terminal or “head house,” now serving as the hotel’s entrance, in a style befitting a time when flying captivated the world. He envisioned the terminal’s exterior, with its swoopy silhouette and large windows overlooking the runways, as not only practical, but an effort to “interpret the sensation of flying,” and “express the drama and specialness and excitement of travel,” according to Eero Saarinen: an Architecture of Multiplicity."

Non so se viviamo nel migliore dei mondi possibili (dal punto di vista dello sviluppo socio-tecnologico sì, senza dubbio). Sicuramente però viviamo nel mondo più strano e singolare. Come questa storia delle scimmie delle nevi giapponesi che sono state portate, tra tutti i posti del mondo, in Texas. Chissà perché, mi sono chiesto prima di leggere questa storia. Ovviamente, c'è un perché. Strano, ma c'è.
Money quote: "Her name was Pelka. She was ten years old and recently had a baby. I was at La Moca reporting on a story for the Daily Texan about the first-ever roundup of a troop of macaques that had been transplanted in 1972 from their sanctuary in the snowy, pine-shaded peaks of Stormy Mountain (Arashiyama in Japanese), outside of Kyoto, to the most unlikely of places: this sun-strobed ranch near Laredo. Pelka and I were surrounded by volunteers with laps full of sleepy monkeys. A couple dozen of the 176 resident macaques had been captured and tranquilized so that researchers could examine, inoculate, and tattoo them. We were keeping our charges safe until they had recovered enough to be released back into the electric-fenced, 108-acre enclosure, where the rest of the troop roamed freely."

Sono un appassionato di storie di truffe e truffatori. Appena l'ho visto, non ho potuto resistere all'inchiesta di Rachel Browne sull'artista delle truffe Patrice Runner. Da adolescente di Montréal, Runner era innamorato dei testi provocatori degli annunci di vendita per corrispondenza, soprattutto di quelli che assomigliavano a biglietti scritti a mano. Immaginate di essere così persuasivi sulla carta stampata da farvi spedire per posta i numeri vincenti della lotteria e i segreti della fortuna e della ricchezza. Nel corso degli anni, oltre un milione di canadesi ha ceduto al fascino di Runner, facendogli guadagnare 200 milioni di dollari. E poi?
Money quote: "In early 2022, I wrote a letter to Runner in prison, asking if he would consider being interviewed. While the so-called Maria Duval letter scheme had attracted extensive media coverage, Runner had never spoken to a reporter. “I got your letter yesterday evening. First I was surprised and then moved by it,” Runner said to me over the phone from a detention centre in Brooklyn, New York. “I was intrigued by the fact that it was handwritten. Was it done on purpose to intrigue me? Because it’s unusual today to receive, especially from a professional, a letter that’s handwritten with no letterhead. . . . You’re a good copywriter.” Over the following year, I interviewed Runner dozens of times—in person at the prison, via email, and over the phone—in the lead-up to his trial.
Runner told me that while he always tested the limits of business, he never crossed a legal line. “Maybe it’s not moral, maybe it’s bullshit,” he once said. “But it doesn’t mean it’s fraud.”"

Quando si conclude un progetto, possono affiorare sentimenti di perdita, disperazione, tristezza o vuoto. Questo articolo aiuta a comprendere meglio il lutto creativo e capire perché e come si verifica. È anche una buona lezione su come funzionano le nostre emozioni.
Money quote: "Partiamo quindi dall'inizio, o meglio, dalla fine di un progetto, per scoprire cosa sta succedendo. La psicologa Natasha Frome suggerisce che ci sono molte ragioni per cui una persona può provare sentimenti di lutto creativo, ma nella maggior parte dei casi si tratta di un senso di perdita. Spiega: "Il lutto, nella nostra concezione tradizionale del termine, è la reazione fisica e mentale alla perdita di qualcosa o di qualcuno. In relazione a un progetto creativo, può essere una perdita di identità o di scopo quando si è investita molta energia in un progetto o in un lavoro. Una volta che è sparito dalla vostra vita o è uscito nel mondo, ne avete perso il controllo. Avete perso la connessione con una parte di voi stessi e forse con un gruppo più ampio di persone con cui avete lavorato. Questo senso di perdita può lasciare una sensazione di vuoto nella propria vita"".

There's a way to get healthier without even going to a gym. It's called NEAT
All those daily activities we'd rather avoid — taking the stairs, cleaning the house, etc. — have a big metabolic payoff. Non-exercise activity thermogenesis can help manage weight and boost health.
