The short video captures an impressive moment as the tenor Angelo Loforese, even at the age of 93, confidently showcases his masterful opera technique and powerful vocals alongside the piano.

Rest in peace, Ronnie Delany - one of the greatest achievements in the history of Irish sport.
Ronnie Delany turns 90 today. A good time to look back at the last lap of the 1500m final in 1956 - from 11th at the bell to 1st at the finish. From the official Olympic film of the Melbourne Games:

Coolest underground station in the world? Rome has just opened the new Line C station “Colosseo”, under Fori Imperiali and Altare della Patria. It looks like a museum. 🇮🇹

The sad news of @ManchanMagan death reminded me of this lovely and enlightening interview with @MichaelRosenYes We are all more connected and alike then some amongst us are willing to admit. RIP Manchán
A very enjoyable exploration of the history of the Irish language with ⁦@MichaelRosenYes⁩ and ⁦@ManchanMagan⁩! ⁦@CauveryMadhavan⁩ - if you haven’t heard it, I suspect you would enjoy.

I haven't found a single peer-reviewed paper covering AI-powered productivity increase that also takes into consideration the additional work required to review, correct, and oversee AI outputs. The "increased productivity" and "socially beneficial" claims have been at the core of major AI investments and government partnerships, and have been raised to justify legal exceptionalism (especially in fields such as copyright and data protection). Yet, it's 2025, and there doesn't seem to be a single paper capable of objectively demonstrating what AI companies have been marketing over the past two and a half years (including the review/oversight time, which they conveniently ignore). This is a sad state of affairs for AI governance.

Let’s discuss the majestic and mighty bald eagle and its jaw dropping midair feeding habits. I for one think they are just amazing. Call me a fan! But when they take their meal to the skies against a beautiful backlit sunset, it exposes a very, very different world for all to see! Not only can you see every blood tinged water droplet like tiny pink sapphires in the sky but you also get an amazing view of those deadly meat hooks called talons. Normally they are as black as an inky moonless night but this time they are full of color accented by that powerful, beautiful sunlight. What do you think?
