A petition by NIMBYs in 1887 against the Eiffel Tower sounds a lot like contemporary arguments against projects. Had opponents succeeded, nobody today would realize what had been lost. The cost of NIMBYism is in what is not built.

Some are angry about the "anti-Christian depiction of the last supper" at the Olympic Opening ceremony. (@elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump among others) A Dutch art historian explains it's not the last supper but a Dutch painting of the Olympic gods. And I explain what I loved. 🧵

These seems like an amazing resource for those inclined to understand computer science in an OYO fashion:
Santiago@svpino

Here is a completely free Computer Science curriculum for those with the discipline to go through it independently. The curriculum follows the same degree requirements as an undergraduate computer science major and consists of courses from Harvard, MIT, and Princeton, among other colleges. The curriculum has four major sections: 1. Introduction: Students can review this section and decide whether this fits them. 2. Core: This section corresponds to the first three college years. 3. Advanced: This section corresponds to the final year of a Computer Science curriculum in college. 4. Final Project: Students can validate, consolidate, and display their knowledge by completing this project. Assuming you spend around 20 hours per week, you can finish in two years. I won't lie: completing a curriculum like this alone will be hard. Having the support of professors and other students is very important, but if you have the discipline and the will, this material is amazing. The link to the repository is on the screenshot and its ALT description.

#corruption in action: the Ontario gov't passed #Bill23, despite urban policy experts pointing out the sprawl and pollution (and despite massive protests). This. Is. Frustrating. Please everyone vote at the next Ontario election (and consider this policy move).
