    This morning i saw the photo that @hollyhoneychurch posted and here is my attempt to paint it.

    This was my first attempt with a sketch, and then on to the larger canvas. This technique certainly helped.

    The other day @maique posted a picture, and I immediately knew that I needed to paint it. My composition needs work, and my fine detail could be better, but this is the result.

    Carving the smoked turkey. Carving the smoked turkey for Thanksgiving

    5:50 PM, Nov 24 →
  • 💭 brief thought…

    I am not religious (anymore, long story), but here is the offering I am giving tomorrow as we host Thanksgiving.

    In light of the past few years, and as we see continued tension at home and hostility abroad, what today symbolizes is more important that ever – To acknowledge what we are thankful for, to be around those we care about. But we would be remiss to not acknowledge all that makes this day possible.

    We must acknowledge that we celebrate on the traditional land of the Powhatan tribe. Their ancestors met, often with hostility, the colonists in Jamestown and were moved to reservations before extinction. We must commit ourselves to the support of the remaining native people of Virginia, in both word and deed.

    Please join me in a moment of thankful silence.

    We would also not be here without those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, and those who continue to put themselves in harms ways. Staying eternally vigilant, men and women in our armed forces are away from their families, so we can gather here.

    Please join me in a moment of thankful silence.

    We must acknowledge the doctors, nurses, who cared for those have suffered in the global pandemic, and the scientists who created the means for us to move through the pandemic most interesting few years in all of our lifetimes.

    Please join me in a moment of thankful silence.

    In closing, I came across a quote that is attributed to the Talmud, and given the climate of our world, it seemed fitting in a day in which I am able to be with those I love.

    “Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.”

    Finally, at the end of Episcopal services, the priest sends the congregation forth with this:

    “Life is short and we do not have much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are traveling this journey with us. So be swift to love, make haste to be kind.

    Please join me in a moment of thankful silence.

    Based on a photo I snapped in Venice in 2019. We were walking to find a restaurant at dusk, and the play of the lights on the water caught my eye.

    “You should write down your brand statement, and then EVERYTHING you communicate online (or around your customers) should be in line with that statement. In short, if it doesn’t advance your brand, don’t share or say it.”

    And my heart rose up in revolt and shouted: F@CK THAT SH*T!

    Cheri Baker wrote this and I think she is so right! There is something that is so weird about someone who only posts things online that are focused on their “brand.” People are more complex and have more diverse interest that what is contained in a “brand statement”.

  • Deeper thought 💭 on Restaurant noise levels are climbing. Here’s how to fight back. →

    Everyone I spoke to for this story pointed out that some level of noisiness in restaurants is intentional — and you can thank (recently disgraced) celebrity chef Mario Batali for that.

    In a great New York magazine article about loud restaurants, Adam Platt points out that the “Great Noise Boom” in eateries started to flourish in the late ’90s, around the time Batali began pumping the music he and his kitchen staff enjoyed working to into the dining room at Babbo in New York. “Over the next several years,” Platt writes, “as David Chang and his legions of imitators followed Batali’s lead, the front-of-the-house culture was slowly buried in a wall of sound.”

    Batali has explained his penchant for loud restaurants: He feels the sound conveys a sense of vibrancy and energy, feelings diners associate with eating out in New York. So the raucousness is by design.

    Today, restaurants still use loud music to achieve that same dynamism. As Sietsema told me, “When I go around town to hot restaurants, they are all pretty noisy, for a lot of reasons, I think. But partly I blame it on restaurants, because you’re looking to create buzz or energy in dining rooms. No one wants to walk into a mausoleum.”

    As someone who has sensitive ears, the best dining experience I have had in my life was at a small restaurant with absolutely no music.

    It was heaven.

    Another documentary in my documentary kick that was captivating is Icarus. I started watching this thinking I was watching one movie, but then, like a very good documentary, it took a turn into a story that was far more interesting than the first one.

  • Deeper thought 💭 on Leaving Medium →

    A little over a year ago, I switched my site to Medium. I read Marius Maslar and Drew Coffman and understood that Medium was a platform that focused on writing and exposing that writing to others. And while I think that is still true, I find Medium's changes to be at odds with that ethos.

    If Medium is focused on having people read what is written, why do they adorn their web versions with John Gruber coined "dickbars"? The mobile reading experience has become very hostile, forcing readers to become users. This sounds more like Silicon Valley venture-funded thinking than the mission of a company focused on connecting writers and readers. It is focusing on "user engagement" instead of being a platform for writing.

    I have switched away from Medium. Why? Because of the reader-hostile nature of their changes, for a company that is focused on writing and reading. Because of the company’s ridiculous release notes on their iOS app. Because of the company's need to change things just for change’s sake. Because of their lack of an explicit business model.

    I have switched to Squarespace. Not because it is the most popular blogging platform. Plenty of people have complained about that. Not because it has the best API support. Because it has a business model that makes sense. And I am in control of my content without having to do a lot of work to keep the platform that I write on up to date. No patching, minimal security risks. It is in line with the belief that when working in IT, I don't need to use all of my IT knowledge on personal or home projects. Sometimes simpler is better.

  • Deeper thought 💭 on The Loyal Engineers Steering NASA’s Voyager Probes Across the Universe →

    One of the greatest obstacles to planetary science has always been the human life span: Typically, for instance, a direct flight to Neptune would take about 30 years. But in the spring of 1965, Gary Flandro, a doctoral student at Caltech, noticed that all four outer planets — Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune — would align on the same side of the sun in the 1980s. If a spacecraft were launched in the mid- to late 1970s, it could use the gravity of the first body to slingshot to the second, and so on. Such a trajectory would add enough speed to shorten the total journey by almost two-thirds. What’s more, this orbital configuration would not appear again for 175 years.
