"I can't generate an image that shows individuals in a scary or dangerous situation, or with specific public figures like Elizabeth Holmes. Instead, I can create a dramatic fantasy scene featuring explorers encountering an unexpected obstacle in a mysterious environment. Would you like me to try that?" Ok then.

The famous photos of Margaret and printouts (plural) of the code use in the Apollo program: The first image has been serially reposted on reddit, usually incorrectly described as "the code she wrote by hand." Not to take away from Margaret's work in the slightest, but these binders are multiple copies of all the code written by everyone who worked on it.

Blaring (headphones) the two live Coltrane recordings of Love Supreme off The Platinum Collection this morning. Note the disc-track numbers are quite different by distribution. The Antibes Jazz Festival Juan-les-Pins show from July 26, 1965 is on Disc 3 of the Japanese SHM-CD, becomes "Disc 2" on Apple Music and Spotify (and probably others), while The Penthouse, Seattle On October 2, 1965 is Disc 4 on SHM-CD, but "Disc 3" on streaming. Quartet & Sextet outtakes and a couple mono masters shift accordingly. Jump around this playlist for both full concerts.
