Love that song.
And, I was so blown away seeing this video at the MOMA decades ago.
@Museek
I stumbled upon a video about The Stoics and learned about him and his Meditations; an ancient text that were never meant to be published.
Plenty of useful guidance for life in many of its passages.
This was the videographer:

@Museek
That's why I start my day reading one passage in The Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
I intentionally don't turn on my computer and sit by a window to read by natural light.

Thanks. You have given me a great reason to dive deeper into Kant's work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_imperative
The James Webb Space Telescope has cleared some significant hurdles! Now it's moving its primary mirror into place. That's the big, gold mirror that is folded back for the launch.

Live shot taken from the House floor 20 minutes ago -
Note Liz Cheney and her father on the floor as they are honor for holding fast against the insurrection,....
ALSO: note how there are no Republicans in the House chamber at all as they honor thos Capital police and remember Jan 6th
The Republican Party is a treasonous Party
I could use some coding advice.
I've got a MySQL database and I want to automate the output of CSVs (or JSONs) so that I could use them in a visualization layer.
The SQL (a crosstab) to output is written and works. But, it uses SET commands to build the variables for the filename. The semicolons really scramble up how Python reads in the SQL.
Am I making this too complex?
At a high level, what is a simple sequence to get the output and automate it?
NASA is making more progress with the James Webb Space Telescope today!

>40% of Americans experienced a climate-related disaster last year.
I believe we need hope.
There are solutions to mitigate the effects of climate change, but we need the focus and resources. So, there is hope.

There needs to be a running video that captures all of the famous and public figures that are anti-vax and dead from COVID.
Eventually it will be an hour long.
Could be useful for a political commercial.

As you engage this new year, set your sights on those goals that stretch your capabilities.
But first:
Get your day to day organized.
Wrap up the loose ends.
Clear the mind so you can focus.
Then set your sight on the tough problems.
This is all we've got, so muster the courage and make it worthwhile.

The James Webb Space Telescope is currently well past the moon's orbit and traveling faster than a bullet. It's about 1/3rd of the way to its destination.

This is a really BFD!
$Billions were spent to move mankind forward via this device.
In 12 hours it will be put on top of a controlled bomb and pushed way past the moon where it will be our eyes on the new wonders of the Universe!
