Zoomed in peek at the neighborhood barred owl. At first I thought it was our hawk, but on inspection and consultation with my daughter’s boyfriend, a birding expert, we decided this is the owl.

Have you ever read it??? It's 100% not a children's book and whoever says that is lying to you. Not only is the vernacular dated and elaborate but the sentence structure and lengthy writing is often hard to get your head around as an adult. Love that book! but it's not for kids Readers added context The Hobbit is a children's fantasy novel; Tolkien wrote it as a "fairy-story for children" and stated it was "really meant... as a 'children's story'" in his letters, and it was nominated for the Carnegie Medal for children's books. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/1247... → Context is written by people who use X, and appears

KAREN LORD THE BEST OF ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS AHOVEL. "An engrossing picaresque quest, a love story, and a moving character study ... Lord is on a par with Ursula K. Le Guin."
Logan Roy’s brother Ewan delivering a eulogy appropriate for a man so greedy he’d burn the world for the insurance money LI loved him, I suppose, and I suppose some of you did too, in whatever way he would let us and we could manage. But I can’t help but say he has wrought some of the most terrible things. He was a man who has here and there drawn in the edges of the world. Now and then darkened the skies a little. Closed men’s hearts. Fed that dark flame in men, the hard mean hard-relenting flame that keeps their heart warm while another grows cold. Their grain stashed while another goes hungry. ... You can get a little high, a little mighty when you’re warm. Oh yes, he gave away a few million of his billions but he was not a generous man. He was mean, and he made but a mean estimation of the world and he fed a certain kind of meagerness in men. Perhaps he had to because he had a meagerness about him and maybe I do about me too, I don’t know. I try. I try. I don’t know when but sometime he decided not to try anymore and it was a terrible shame.”

listening to these people talk about A.L's potential and drawbacks. They share the broader public's concerns over how the technology could impact stretched energy grids, be used by the powerful to target critics without guardrails, warp their children's education and career prospects and be deployed by malicious actors to attack private and public systems. Yet tech professionals seem more clearheaded than Democrats in Washington about what the tools actually do. A.I. is integrated into almost every aspect of tech workers' day-to-day jobs, and they understand its benefits in addition to its
