I needed to find this again because all of a sudden I have to start making powerpoint presentations. Now, I am really pleased to announce the first release of the draw.io extension, a fully fledged integration for JupyterLab of the fully-fledged diagram editor! Toll-gated at Medium

I’ve been busy with work and life lately so I haven’t had a lot of time to write and trade. Yesterday I went long NVDA again because it made a new all-time high. NVDA earnings beat expectations all around and they raised guidance for the next quarter. Then they announced a 10:1 stock split. All signs keep pointing to this stock going higher. My guess and this is only a guess, is that it will reach near $1100 before splitting and then go back to the $300 to $400 range pronto. ...

Having some friends over for a BBQ this Memorial Day and thinking of offering two types of mixed drinks: Watermelon Mojitos Lynchburg Lemonade

I dug this out of my father’s collection and replaced the battery in it. It’s a nice utilitarian watch referred to as a field watch or in this case, a military watch. It feels more dressy than a field watch but it’s a nice way to wear and it helps me remember my Dad. This classic bicolour chronograph watch for men is the perfect timeless companion to easily go with any dress situation you might encounter. The sleek bicolour design holds a white dial with classic indexe and hand designs.- via Swiss Military Watches ...

My personal opinion is that we won’t be able to do anything. Nothing’s been done despite the Paris Climate Accords except jawboning. The answer will be climate resilience as we enter a period of dystopia. A 1C increase in global temperature leads to a 12% decline in world gross domestic product (GDP), the researchers found, a far higher estimate than that of previous analyses. The world has already warmed by more than 1C (1.8F) since pre-industrial times and many climate scientists predict a 3C (5.4F) rise will occur by the end of this century due to the ongoing burning of fossil fuels, a scenario that the new working paper, yet to be peer-reviewed, states will come with an enormous economic cost.

Since I live in the woods I get to forest bathe everyday! I do feel completely different living in a forest than I did living in a city. There’s something to be said about this. Forest bathing involves none of those things. “Just be with the trees,” as Ephrat Livni describes the practice, “no hiking, no counting steps on a Fitbit. You can sit or meander, but the point is to relax rather than accomplish anything.” You don’t have to hug the trees if you don’t want to, but at least sit under one for a spell. Even if you don’t attain enlightenment, you very well may reduce stress and boost immune function, according to several Japanese studies conducted between 2004 and 2012. ...

I stood at the beginning of the Camino de Santiago at the Montserrat Monestary. It’s a life long dream of mine to walk it one day. Better get moving because I ain’t getting any younger! Though many more walk el Camino de Santiago for other than religious reasons. Many say that the Camino is time to reset their life. It is an incredible experience and opportunity to disconnect and experience a slower daily life with few modern interruptions. - via Camino Adventures ...

It looks like the price per ton of Cocoa is now about $8,900 whereas Copper is only $8,700-ish. Crazy times but I’m guessing there’s WAY MORE INFLATION IN THE PIPELINE than what we are led to believe. JPOW has to keep it going until after the election. Source Reddit
