I had forgotten that Donald Sutherland is in Kate Bush's song "Cloudbusting".
The weather machine was designed by the production crew behind the Alien films, and the video was storyboarded by Terry Gilliam.
~RIP Donald.

Do you have a mental illness? Why some people answer ‘yes’, even if they haven’t been diagnosed
"Diagnostic labels may become identity-defining and self-limiting, as people come to believe their problems are enduring, hard-to-control aspects of who they are...
"...Ongoing cultural shifts are fostering increasingly expansive definitions of mental illness. These shifts are likely to have mixed blessings. By normalising mental illness they may help to remove its stigma. However, by pathologising some forms of everyday distress, they may have an unintended downside.
"As we wrestle with the mental health crisis, it is crucial we find ways to increase awareness of mental ill health without inadvertently inflating it."
Do you have a mental illness? Why some people answer ‘yes’, even if they haven’t been diagnosed
People who have a lower threshold for defining distress as a disorder are more likely to identify themselves as having a mental illness.The Conversation

I don't get to the theater often, but thoroughly enjoyed Pixar's Inside Out 2 with my family.
The storytellers did an excellent job portraying changing emotions & our sense of self in an accessible way for all ages.
It also offers an opportunity to start the conversation - especially with children - about how to understand anxiety.

Embracer Group put out their plans for AI in game development
After killing off and selling off various studios and cause lots of job losses, Embracer Group have put out their latest annual report and they have big plans for AI.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
so one of the major risks is to not use AI
So my anecdotal experience has been this: the best SWEs i know have yet to start using LLMs to empower their work, many have tried using it, and found it wanting. But many of the less quality conscious devs I know have adopted it happily, and it has helped them much more rapidly produce stuff that lacks quality
The only AI i respect are the Multiplayer Bots, AI allies and the super ghost battles in Tekken 8

Relatives search for missing in Saudi Arabia as hajj death toll tops 900
Friends and family searched for missing hajj pilgrims on Wednesday as the death toll at the annual rituals, which were carried out in scorching heat, surged past 900.NEWS WIRES (FRANCE 24)
The fossil fuel industry is preparing to do worse than let pilgrims die of extreme heat.
They plan on letting 1 billion people die of famine by 2050.
They plan on having 1.2 billion climate refugees by 2050.
They plan on torpedoing every liberal democracy.
They plan on having more zoonotic pandemics.
Scary and worth knowing about.
I remember encountering this with some post-modernists. It was scary how people were so impressed by someone with a vocabularly of three to four syllable words, but nothing real to say.
