These publications need to start letting you Apple-pay to read one article. No I don’t want a year subscription or to be sent on another stupid hunt for the unsubscribe button. I want to swipe fast, charge a couple dollars, like getting on the subway, read and leave. Get to it

From the above, you can see garment manufacturing is a complex web of production. There are questions of where the fibers are grown, yarns are spun, fabric is woven or knitted, garment cut and sewn, and then potentially finished. Trims may have their own supply chains.

Pessimists sound clever.
Optimists change the world.
I love this depiction of the energy transition by RMI.

I appreciate the work of the Indigenous Women’s Collective in Saskatchewan, including Dr Wenona Wheeler, to reframe identity fraud as an act of academic (or ethical, artistic, etc) misconduct. The integrity question is crucial. Lying about your identity is academic misconduct.

20 years ago we released Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas.
The original plan was for the 3 cities to be on separate maps. The player would travel between the cities using trains and planes.
(Gta 1 and 2 also had three cities on separate maps)
Memory was very tight on the ps2 and with separate maps, the other cities’ skyline models wouldn’t have to be in memory.
It would also make it easier to have different police/ambulance/firetrucks for each city. Different pickups, weather types etc.
It would also be easier to contain the player until it was time for the next city.
It would also make it easier to organize the models on the DVD city-by-city which would help the streaming.
Just before the artists started working on the three maps, we had a final meeting at R* North in which we changed our minds and decided to go for a big map after all.
We still ended up doing city-specific pickups, police cars and weather.
Happy birthday San Andreas. You turned out all right.
