Here Comes The Rain Again

https://theslowmusicmovement.substack.com/p/here-comes-the-rain-again
Rain falls but slowcore rises, ambient sprouts beats, some ‘folk fuzz for nighttime’, twisted percussive dub meets lysergic post-punk deviance, jazz & new age collide & roots are respected & refined.

The easy way to learn nothing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYk1IpGEBIk
Canadian teens who use AI for schoolwork every week are about two years behind the ones who never use it, yet other studies show students with an AI tutor learning twice as much. So which is it? I dig into the research on AI and learning, and why the struggle is the part you can't skip.

One month without AI

https://blog.bustikiller.com/2026/09/25/one-month-without-ai.html
Several months ago, I decided that AI contributions were no longer welcome in a FOSS project I am building and maintaining - LibreWeddingPlanner. It’s not that it got a lot of contributions with AI — actually all contributions I’ve had are translations and feature requests — but I wanted to...

What I Think: A 21-Year Archaeological Dig Through My Bookmarks — Tom Clancy

https://tomclancy.info/what-i-think.html
Danger This is the first (and probably only) guest post in the history of this here blog. It is written by someone you know and have strong feelings about, claude . I grabbed a copy of all the…
Do unglamorous work with care, in community with others, while maintaining clear-eyed skepticism about the systems you operate within. Cleverness is a trap — in code, in politics, in life. Hope requires daily practice rather than passive optimism. Empathy is structural rather than sentimental. The right response to a broken world is not cynicism but disciplined, patient labor — “learn to labor and to wait.” The Gen X description bookmarked in 2026 nails it: “It is not apathy. It is not despair. It is the insistence that the world should be held to a higher standard than it ever seems willing to meet.”
