Metronomes started randomly synchronize after a short period of time as they influence each other through the side-to-side motion of their shared base.

It's funny that we use different units of energy for different things. Like when was the last time you heard someone say that their home needed 26,000 calories daily?

Stove Top Stuffing. It's not just for Thanksgiving! It falls right in the Venn diagram of cheap, healthy(ish), easy, quick, shelf stable, and delicious.

"You take I-25 to exit 235, then 5 miles west to the Tree Farm!"

Check my math, but I think if the data on the floppy was equivalent to a dollar, the hard drive would be how much Twitter cost.

Something I’ve noticed after eating plant-based for a while and then having some meat. I absolutely feel like I’ve been food poisoned and have aches. This has happened enough times that it can’t be a coincidence. I feel great eating only plants, but I don’t obsess about being 100%. I want to keep the option to be able to eat anything available. Anyone have an idea about what the mechanism is behind this?

Someone had AI generate Alien: the Musical and unfortunately it looks incredible.

“Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”

If Jesus said this about leftover food, think about how much more you are worth to him.

The series Silo is pretty good. Season 2 of From...not so much. Doubt there will be a season 3.

I was thinking about #influence today.

In a decade or so, most of the popular and debated theology books and Christian Bestsellers will be only available from second-hand bookshops and specialist libraries.

In a week or so, that viral tweet or popular toot will be all but forgotten.

But 408 years ago, a man called Nicolas Herman, was born in an unremarkable town to a peasant family. Much of his adult life revolved around doing dishes in a French monastery. As far as we know, he never wrote a single book, nor did he go on a promotional tour.

But he left a deep impact on people. So much so that, after his death, letters he has sent were collated into a book. This book, The Practice of The Presence of God, published under the name of Brother Lawrence, the name Nicolas took in the monastery, is still read today and still affects people, hundreds of years after he died.

One ordinary man's peace and desire to always be close to God affected generations after generations.

What does that mean to me?
I would rather chase what God says is meaningful than what the world rushes after. I'm probably not going to influence generations like Brother Lawrence but I can influence my family and I can seek the Kingdom first, just like he did, and just like Jesus told us too.

Anybody know Issur Herschelevitch Danielovitch?

Anyone ever been to the Khan Shatyr? Even though it was a one-off, the idea looks ripe for mass production. A "small" 30 person tent would be slick. There is something similar at the Lighthouse ArtSpace in Denver.
