Syria 'to join Paris accord', isolating US
"The reported move will leave the US as the only country now outside or opposed to the climate deal."
here's the mythological Norse sword: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrfing
for those of you wondering about the "Tyrfing" thing last night: it's a sword from Norse mythology, also something something Castlevania something Fire Emblem. I'm thinking of using it in my fic, but wanted to make sure I didn't immediately get flooded with "oh it's that one thing from $GAME!" associations, but it looks like it's obscure enough that I'm good. XD
(tooting from bed shut up) does the word "Tyrfing" have any strong or immediate associations for you? (without looking it up)
tryina decide if it's sleeptime yet or not. thinking it is.

I voted last week. VOTE BY MAIL, BABY, WOOOO!
and then tried to look up the election results today and realized *tomorrow* is "election day," I'm not sure quite how that works for an area that's gone entirely vote-by-mail--I guess they can't call it for sure until the last ballots have trickled in with the correct post-by date? iunno.

Y'all gotta remember that not every state has the same schedule when posting reminders, though.

excellent piece on feedback loops between recommendation engines and procedurally-generated content, specifically with regard to videos targeted to children on youtube: https://medium.com/@jamesbridle/something-is-wrong-on-the-internet-c39c471271d2 (content warnings in article)
reminds me of cathy o'neil's concept of "weapons of math destruction" in which data-driven algorithms feed back on data from the society that they create http://time.com/4471451/cathy-oneil-math-destruction/
