Perfectly happy to watch these two team up for goals for the next decade. Lane Hutson has arrived.

I’m happy to announce the launch of my new Substack, which I’m calling The Flatline. I’m glad to be employed but I’m such a dork that journalism isn’t just my job, but my hobby. Got some cool stuff planned, hope you’ll subscribe. theflatline.substack.com/p/coming-soon

One of the funniest bits ever to make it to television.

I can't believe how good Fallout is. Captured the tone and spirit of the games while telling a really good story and respecting the lore. So many ways this could have gone bad but they nailed it.

This is great advice - I almost always start interviews with scientists with some variation of 'pretend you're explaining this to a small child, and one who isn't particularly bright at that.'

Absolute, undying devotion to a bit is why Conan is the best to ever do it. Jay Leno could never.

Only got a partial view here in NYC, which was still amazing, but thrilled for all my Montreal people who got to experience something truly thrilling. Space is cool. Science is cool.

'Cause the walls start shaking, the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching and we were making it
And you shook me for about 20 seconds or so.

Earthquake I felt in NYC appears to have been centered in Jersey and measured a 5.2. That was jarring!

My buddy Andrew with the television news clip of the year. This is amazing.

In my first big piece for Semiconductor Engineering I looked into the security challenges facing data centers, where more and more data is being centralized.

I thought this show was a fever dream, but it actually existed. RIP Joe Flaherty, who might have been American, but had definite Canadian weirdo comedy vibes.
