Mystery of why Roman buildings have survived so long has been unraveled, scientists say
"...white chunks in the concrete, referred to as lime clasts, gave the concrete the ability to heal cracks that formed over time. The white chunks previously had been overlooked as evidence of sloppy mixing or poor-quality raw material."
"The new finding could help make manufacturing today's concrete more sustainable, potentially shaking up society as the Romans once did."

@kellyjandrews we do. We do!
Pigeon busted flying into prison with a backpack of meth. Expert from the Vancouver Poultry & Fancy Pigeon Association said there are two plausible ways to use a pigeon to deliver drugs. One, someone could throw the pigeon over the fence into the prison. Second, an inmate could spend months training the bird from the inside to recognize the prison as its home. Someone would get the bird to the outside, fasten its cargo and release it to return home to the prison. https://boingboing.net/2023/01/06/pigeon-busted-flying-into-prison-with-a-backpack-of-meth.html
@cross Wrought iron connectors delineating relationships between tables and dependencies between microservices?
@jbminn Thanks much appreciated. Means a lot. I am using it as a reference on my desk, and it was the intent behind the format. Next, workshops.
@jbminn Thank you sir. Please share any feedback.

@njyx We may have known. Very like me to forget. It just came up in some research and I was like -- I HAVE BEEN HERE!!
@danwentzel I used to ride the bus from Santa Monica to West Hollywood when I worked for CityGrid in 2011. When it rolled through Beverly Hills it was always me at 15 Latina maids riding together.
@njyx I was today year old when I realized that where we held API Strat in Amsterdam was the site of the first stock exchange - https://www.beursgeschiedenis.nl/en/moment/the-exchange-of-hendrick-de-keyser/
@adron I haven't played with cohost. Doing now. Looks to be no official public API, but a number of unofficial and rogue APIs -- looks like instagram in early days.
OK. I am on the Post platform now too - https://post.news/kinlane -- but I broke my golden rule that I don't use platforms that do not have a public API. So we'll see how long I stay. If I can't get data in or out in a programmatic way -- nothing else matters.
Coming online for the new year....YES, positive reviews and feedback on new book!!!....oh one of my favorite and enduring stalkers has spent their holidays commenting on each one talking trash about me. Let's do this 2023!!
@jberi So. Much. Truth.
