DY Pearson T1 Departures. Diana starting on AC flight 11 hours eastbound where weather should improve by 20 degrees Celsius. Sister KSY intercepting on route, to fly together.

Reading The Undoing Project, by Michael Lewis, reminded me of a PhD course at UBC with Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, before they were recognized as Nobel prize candidates.

Platforms have had only a short history, so much of the research is still definitional, with proposed frameworks.
Platforms, an emerging appreciation

From Flickr to Piwigo
Migrating of Flickr to a self-hosted Piwigo site took only a few button pushes, to gain practically the same functions that I have been using for 5 years.
Optimism for open sourcing
The acquisition by IBM of Red Hat brings together two companies that have been leading in open sourcing while private sourcing for almost 20 years.
