Here is a curious bulb (or rather tuber) which I haven't planted before: Corydalis cava. Shipton Bulbs describe it as "this old introduction from Europe. It has long been naturalised in woods and hedges where it forms clumps of tubular pink flowers in March with attractive divided foliage". Sometimes known as Hollowroot. I wondered why and turning this one over it does indeed look like a section of hollowed out …

Labour didn't have a great conference. Following a supposed triumph, the mood was hardly upbeat confident. It was best typified by Keir Starmer's speech, which will only be remembered for an unfortunate misspeaking incident. Still, it was much better than the Conservative conference. Labour were subdued, but the Tories attended a catastrophe. A quick reminder about what happened in July. The collapse of the Tory position, long forecast round these …

There are just no words for the magic of these luminous side canyons, oases of shade, reflected light, water and life. Canyon aficionados will recognize this immediately as Saddle Canyon, it’s no secret. It is, however, basically impossible to access except by river. It’s one of the classic side hikes, for very good reason, and a personal favorite of mine. “The glories and the beauties of form, color, and sound …

I’m really thrilled that our research article on government IT procurement was recently published in Canadian Public Administration. It’s a bit over two years since Prof. Amanda Clarke and I began this research project, and this article being published is in some ways the final milestone of that work. The article is open access, and you can read it online (or download the PDF version). Here’s the upshot: We reveal …

I get a new iPhone most years and I tell myself it's for the photography aspects, but honestly, I'm ok buying a new pocket computer each year, especially one that is used more than any other computer I own.I usually get the iPhone Pro in whatever cool color they're making it in that year, but ever since they shrank the bezel and went full glass on the fronts, I noticed …

Dear readers,It is a rare thing for Art of the Title to publish an editor’s note but the time has come to provide an update. Many of you are likely unaware that, since 2018, Art of the Title has been a one-person operation managed by myself, Editor-in-Chief Lola Landekic. It has been my honour to be a member of the small Art of the Title team since 2011 when I …

My dad might be Austin Powers. When you open his closet it’s like being transported straight into the 1960s prom scene. Dark velour suits, purple polka-dot ties, and frilly shirts hang beside each other like dusty friends from days gone by. “Can you spare some mothballs?” I picture a silk shirt saying to a velvet vest. “I’m not going to make it otherwise.” My dad was a high school teacher …

The 2020s were a fun time for Intel’s Atom line, which went from an afterthought to playing a major role across Intel’s high performance client offerings. Intel’s latest mobile chip, codenamed Lunar Lake, sees Intel’s high performance P-Cores ditch SMT. With P-Cores focusing even more on single threaded performance, E-Cores will play an even more prominent role in boosting multithreaded performance. With Intel facing stronger competition than ever in the …

I was doing this talk, which I’d done dozens of times before. Good, well-practiced deck. I was speaking to CTO-types (current and aspirational) as a favor to a friend. This was a monthly morning coffee chat for this crew, and they invited folks like me to speak. It was on a weekday morning near Slack in downtown San Francisco. No problem. Practiced talk, small group, low stakes. I was editing …

The Silent Generation (born 1928-1945) is disproportionately represented among the most-cited authors in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Let's look at the numbers and think about why. Background: This post is based on my analyses of citation rates in the Stanford Encyclopedia in 2010, 2014, 2019, and 2024. As a measure of prominence in (as I call it) "mainstream Anglophone philosophy", no measure has better face validity than SEP citation …

Studded with hit songs and telling a truly inspiring story, hit bio-musical Tina, The Tina Turner Musical finally plays Melbourne, arriving in peak form. Wondrously warm and vocally superb, the powerhouse lead performance by Ruva Ngwenya is a key attraction of Tina. On stage almost the whole time and singing basically every song, Ngwenya captures audience affection the instant she appears, holding the audience firmly in her palm for the …
