    The catenary wires and street lights are also really questionable. That's one of the limitations I've found with the way these operate - they can create a general scene but don't have the technical knowledge to make the details make intuitive logical sense. I've used "monster truck" as a prompt...

    I had played around with Bing's image generators a few months back. It came up with some cool stuff for "IndyCar race in Boston", "Pixel art off-road race in Fenway Park" and "Pixel art NASCAR race in Fenway park. The Fenway based superspeedways go incredibly hard.

    Photo of the Day, Boston Style: Part XVIII (2024)

    Kicked off the new year with a family trip to the forever awesome Museum of Science, specifically to see the new "Heart of New England" Omni film (my wife works for MathWorks, who helped fund it). Pretty good, with lots of nice overhead shots of Boston. The Museum itself has changed quite a bit...

    Boston Building Signage

    I had to look it up, and that is legitimately their logo. Unlike State Street, they seem to understand how to brand an investment firm.

    Franklin Park - White Stadium Renovation

    It feels like a win in that the team could fold/relocate, and instead of a white elephant the city would still have an upgraded venue that still fits high school sized events. It also opens up a more professional smaller venue if other sports leagues, like say lacrosse or a spring football...

    Freight and General New England RR News

    The wife and I took a ride from Woonsocket up through Worcester and back down to Putnam, CT for a Halloween/Fall Festival several years back before we had a kid. Was a nice little ride, even if it felt weird to drive from Grafton to Woonsocket to then take a train back through Grafton to get to...

    Are the blue lights a different form of night lighting for egress or are there just big blue monitors in those rooms?

    On the one hand I can't imagine that I would ever enjoy living in this space, especially at that price. On the other hand, I could set up a sick R/C track in there...
