πŸ’― March / April = joy.
Driving home other day along Parkway & William Hovel Dr, I was really struck by how green it is. Arboretum spectacular. Feels like years since we've had anything but dry, brown everywhere. Stunnjng complement to our bush capital vibes. Love our nature, open skies, colours.

Same. Not such a fan (ambivalent) but the 'exhuberance' doesn't work for me & it feels a bit forced between them. Even if her character is an aspect of the book I may have forgotten. 😁

I liked the books as edgy crime procedurals - this feels a bit polished & awkward.

Thoughts on flashbacks?

Think I read 2 or 3 books. Not sure of order.
I remembered character as more of a smart, edgy, loner. Which Nic doesn't land, IMO. It was a long time ago & I may be blending characters from other books!
And I don't recall the family angle - not sure I have energy for Jamie Lee Curtis in her role.

Anthropic to build power, fund grid upgrades for future data centres Evan Frondorf, a senior executive at Anthropic, tells Senate committee the AI giant would invest heavily in new power supply to support its data centres.

Yesterday I asked Anthropic about their plans for data centres in πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί & the impact on water and electricity demand.

We hear a lot about the potential of AI & data centres, but not much about the massive risks & need for safeguards against the misuse of AI & data centres guzzling our precious water.

β€˜Worst thing I’ve ever seen’: CSIRO slashes climate modelling jobs Australia’s science agency is cutting more than 100 jobs in its Environment Research Unit, which critics say will crush our capacity to predict climate change.

CSIRO have now lost more jobs under the Albanese Governmet than under the Abbott Government.

We have to do better on research funding and backing our scientists.

Had a look at Our Nic in Scarpetta.

Not at all as I remember the character from the books.

Jury's out on whether I persevere with the series.

With all the relentless crazy going on, this 7 minutes of Bluey perfection is a welcome disrupter to reclaim a moment of joy.

Second favourite episode after Sleepytime.

Image captures a dramatic and vibrant sunset, featuring an array of fiery red, orange, and yellow hues across a cloudy sky. The striking colors create a beautiful and almost surreal natural spectacle.

Meanwhile....

Here's a lovely suburban sunset from last week. Glorious, gentle yet vibrant colours.

How good is Mother Nature....
