Let the Sunshine In - Emotional Moment
I took a trip to New York City at the end of May and had one of the best weekend of my life. While I was there I saw the musical Hair and although I have heard a lot about it throughout my life I never heard it , saw it, and honestly had no desire to see it at all. But, as fate would have it that is the musical I saw and I have to say that it was Amazing. It was beyond amazing. It was better then I could have ever imagined.
It is such a well done musical, and the best part is the story. It is so deep, and moving, and emotional. At the end of the show after the curtain call the audience is invited on stage and we are able to dance with the case to the song “Let the Sunshine In”
Well, thats the background to my little story.
Today when I was driving home from Washington, I was listening to the Hair soundtrack. I have already heard it in full about 15 times and it still does not get old. But for some reason while I was driving and the very last song came on. I just had an emotional outburst. There I was driving 80 miles an hour, down I-95 , singing at the top of my lungs, and tears in my eyes.
I have never been so moved.

More Than We Can Tell
If AI’s design output keeps failing the fundamentals, the obvious fix is to teach it the fundamentals. Write them down. Package them as instructions the model has to follow every time it generates — hierarchy, contrast, balance, proximity, rhythm — with ex...

Ridgeline subscribers — I never met Annie Dillard (archive), and I don’t feel as if I know her. She seems unknowable. Part of her attraction: an improbable cipher looking at the world and delighting in minutiae. So, no, we never walked together (and now ne...

“Artificial” things can get a bad rap next to their counterparts, but they have their place. For example, artificial light (i.e. not from the sun)? Super useful, especially at night. And when it comes to skiing, I’ll take artificial snow if I have to. Beat...
