There's no green like the lush green of new spring growth, nourished by grey and broody rainy skies.

If we could get that green without the cold and wet, would we try? Would we miss the moody, chilly, rainy days if all we had were sunny ones?

TVs of Old, Valley Relics Museum, Van Nuys, California

We finally made it over to the Valley Relics Museum (https://valleyrelicsmuseum.org/), even though it is just “up the street” from where we live. There were a lot of great artifacts including a huge neon sign collection. Check it out when you are at a loss for something to do in the San Fernando Valley.

An inspirational & productive week it was! Realized a life-long dream spending some days in the Dolomites in autumn. Made the most of the last long(er) days of summer time hiking in surreal landscapes with amazing light & colors, in perfect weather (occasionally with dramatic clouds!), with perfect company and mostly away from any masses of people — then spending evenings coding on my open source projects (implementing some of the ideas & problems solved at 2500m elevation earlier in the day... :)

(Also looking forward to start selecting & editing more of my pictures...)

One of the most magnificent/magic places & moments — the up to 1300m tall walls on the other side of the valley are catching the last golden light on Monday evening...

James A. Robinson, premio Nobel per l’economia: «L’egoismo della Silicon Valley rischia di danneggiare gli americani»

L’economista: «Gli Stati Uniti non sono un sistema chiuso alla stregua del Messico. Ma certo anche Bill Gates o Mark Zuckerberg possono aver provato o stanno provando a rendere le istituzioni più estrattive. Più favorevoli a loro e non alla gran parte degli americani»

James A. Robinson, Nobel laureate in Economics: "The egoism of Silicon Valley risks harming Americans."

The Economist: "The United States is not a closed system like Mexico. But certainly even Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg may have tried or are trying to make institutions more extractive. More favorable to them and not to the majority of Americans."

Qual è stata la temperatura più alta registrata sulla Terra? E la più bassa? In Italia?

Dai 56,7 gradi (contestati) della Valle della Morte ai -89,2 °C del Polo Sud. In Italia si va dai -41 del Monte Rosa ai +48,8 della Sicilia, che sono anche record europeo per la temperatura massima

Translated:
What was the highest temperature ever recorded on Earth? And the lowest? In Italy?

From 56.7 degrees (contested) in Death Valley to -89.2°C at the South Pole. In Italy it ranges from -41°C on Mount Rosa to +48.8°C in Sicily, which are also European records for maximum temperature.
