Links to things I found interesting but didn't want to do a full blog post about.
- David Crosby on dinner with Joni, Phoebe Bridgers and the 50th anniversary of his haunted solo debut. "If I Could Only Remember My Name" is one of my favourite records, and I highly recommend the surround mix if you can find it.
- A Cephalopod Has Passed a Cognitive Test Designed For Human Children. "A new test of cephalopod smarts has reinforced how important it is for us humans to not underestimate animal intelligence."
- How Bitcoin's vast energy use could burst its bubble. Yet another reason not to use Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.
- Interstellar Illusions: “Greebles” Lend Large Sci-Fi Structures a Sense of Scale. One of the lesser-known aspects of movie set design.
- NASA Names Perseverance Rover Touchdown Site “Octavia E. Butler Landing”. It goes well with the Bradbury Landing site of the Curiosity Rover.
- How Your Phone Works Behind-the-Scenes Magic to Take the Best Possible Photo. A detailed explanation of how modern cell phones take such good pictures.
