I love a good quotation, and when I come across one I will often write it up in my own rudimentary and imperfect calligraphy, usually on a 4x6" card. I enjoy creating the cards, and actually end up flipping through them pretty often. On the back of a card I will write the date, along with some notes about how I came by the quote and what seemed compelling to me about it when I wrote it up.

Did Augustus live before Isaiah 9:6-7 was written?

It really is amusing the extent to which progressive ideologues will attribute injustice/harm/transgression to inanimate objects and processes. Last year the Altadena fire consumed more houses belonging to people of color, so it was deemed racist. If it is found that female polevaulters suffer more per capita injuries than male, gravity itself will be declared sexist.

Some people's brains semi turn off when they speak in front of a crowd. I would say that there was some hubris involved -- not on her part but on Trump's. Ten hours of training probably would have made all the difference. There is perhaps an unconscious sense that exceptionally attractive people are also exceptional in their skills.

Maybe the Marin French Cheese Company in Petaluma could help them out if it comes to that.

I guess what I like about Camembert (relative to Brie) is its saltiness.

A thoughtful, well-spoken young engineer. She does a good job of sharing what it feels like to be the human-in-the-loop of an AI system.

Me? I'd love to travel to the home of Camembert, even though I've never been to France. A pretty mundane life goal. But it brings joy to my heart knowing people like this exist.

Can't we all just get along?

This is really a meaningless distinction. It would speak more strongly to equity to point out that people from South Dakota are being left behind or that people who attended under-performing elementary schools are being left behind.
