The lychees (notoriously fickle year to year) are coming in nicely. Getting that beautiful deep red. Already ate a few and they are good, need to sweeten up a bit, but still good and tangy. My wife has recipes lined up. image
I don't know about global warming on the rise, but seems like geomagnetic storms are on the rise. Or maybe they're just a buzzy thing now and we hear about them more...I lean this way. Anyway, I've been looking up but haven't seen any auroras and feel left out. Had to make my own fake one: It's pretty and fun, and actually reports the current activity on the 0-9 scale.
One thing I respect about AI chatbots is how confident they are. They will tell you something like "The Earth is flat," with complete confidence. Then when you call them out, they're like, "You're right, the Earth is round," then just move on like they were never wrong at all. I've met successful financial advisor types like that when it comes to stock markets. They'd be totally wrong, but then just move on.
Forget about building a rocket to occupy Mars without exploding before leaving Earth's orbit and forget about AI pushing us all out and taking over the globe. If you want to save humanity, we need to focus our engineering on designing a coffee pot that won't spill everywhere when you pour it. #savethehumans
Lots of geomagnetic activity going on, might be auroras at night. For fun, I made this to check the current level of activity, 0-9 (it's a 6 right now). It's not Van Gogh's "Starry Night", it's "Solar Flare Night": image

Out of sheer curiosity, and because I haven't done it in probably 2 years, I logged into steemit today. First thought: absolutely nothing has changed at all since the fork to Hive in 2020. Digital time capsule. 2nd thought: correction, they changed the color to a mint green. Innovation. blob:https://coracle.social/8c4016b2-e5aa-4d2c-bc5d-be51ef63c6f3 image

One thing I like about AI coding (vibe coding) is that it absolutely forces you to be as precise as possible in your sentences and clarifications. At times it's stunning how intuitive it is, at other times, I-must-think-of-every-word-carefully.
Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth. - Genesis 9:16 image
