Found this tile near South Station in purely by chance after our flight was cancelled and we had to run to catch a train instead (at least we were able to work something out to get home). Anyway…it’s the only tile I know of in Boston, but I’m not sure if that’s because I don’t have enough eyes in Boston or there just really aren’t any others up there.

With the help of in , we will be providing 75 unhoused folks in and with hooded sweatshirts in order to help prepare our community for the fall and winter months ahead. We got a really good deal on the sweatshirts, but this still cost us $1000. We still have some funds left, but it would be awesome if some folks in our community had some money to spare to help us recoup. While sweatshirts will be a huge help to people, the winter months are the most draining on our budget. We do what we do on ~$400/month. If you have some money to spare, please consider donating to Warm Up via our . ko-fi.com/warmupboston

I enjoy reading the ads on the red line… “give us your poop” “get a computer science degree” “need health insurance?” “peanut allergy study subjects needed” “tell us (a hospital) about your foot pain” “we’re the best middle school around” “brain development study subjects needed”

A gloriously sunny 29°C in Cambridge today. Enjoyed teaching a Masters class to a lovely group who asked insightful questions.

Forty years ago I started my first electronics engineer job and remembering starting at in has me all choked up.

An amazing place from day one. Began being shown around by a very attractive young lady who would later be my wife (now ex 🤷‍♂️), meeting all these nice smart people and quirky characters from the mysterious odd job man to the stiff MD.

It was my dream job and the start of ten amazing years in all aspects of my life.

I'm so lucky to have arrived there at that time.

It would appear that “former Tory MP Antoinette Sandbach has threatened the University of Cambridge with legal action after a historian named her as a descendant of merchants who enslaved his ancestors.”

theguardian.com/world/2023/aug

Oh, my… It would be a damn shame if more people knew of this so please do not boost this post.

Omar Terywall is a very brave man who has been helping to combat theft of bicycles in Cambridge. He locates missing bikes via Gumtree, Facebook Marketplace etc and live streams going to 'buy' the bike and confronts the thief. The police warn against this, but don't offer an alternative - I think what he's doing is clever and I wish him all the luck in the world.

"Cambridge d̶i̶n̶o̶s̶a̶u̶r̶ *plesiosaur* bone probably from Roman fossil hunter"

An interesting story from the BBC. This fossil plesiosaur vertebra was recently found alongside pottery and animal bones. It was "likely to have been "curated" by an avid Roman fossil fan."
