Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today,
Tomorrow will be dying.
-- Robert Herrick

These Madagascar periwinkles will hopefully not suffer Herrick's warning of rapid demise.

If anyone is planning to do the #AScareADay October challenge (a story or poem a day, curated by yours truly!)...

I've made a little recording of the first day's poem - Robert Herrick's 'The Hag'

A nice quick listen (for fun or for the challenge) - enjoy!

Turns out that individual differences in accuracy, confidence, and RT among ANNs that only differ in their random initialization mimic the individual differences in humans.

It may be time for NeuroAI to take individual differences even more seriously.

Check out Herrick's thread 👇
🚨 New preprint on individual differences in artificial neural networks and human behavior.

We show that individual differences among ANN instances trained with different random initializations capture the individual differences in human behavior.

A mention of a "Christmas log" comes from Robert Herrick's poetry in 1648, while the term "Yule log" appears later in John Aubrey's writings from 1686. Within Yorkshire the Yule log tradition is well documented. For example, J. B. Partridge, in 1914, described a Yorkshire custom

My favorite reading challenge! Perhaps should have read the initial poem Robert Herrick’s “The Hag” late last night instead of this unseasonably warm & sunny morning.

Might have to give it another go come sundown.

This will be Herrick's debut. He was on loan at Boreham Wood in the National League earlier this season. #lufc

Just listened to the Bone Valley episodes on Kevin Herrick's case so I can assist in his appeal. Awesome work by @gilbertking.bsky.social on the episodes and the #MakinganExoneree team on their deep dive investigation into his case! kevinisnext.com
Kevin is Next
Police misconduct, ineffective legal counsel, and sentencing errors define the wrongful conviction of Kevin Herrick.

I recall that this was an inclusion in one of Alan Herrick's mixed-media 'Auricular' magazines, printed by me in my copy shop.

A recommendation from @flinthill.bsky.social, featuring Robert Herrick and Henry More as characters. Lively so far—I enjoy the period dialogue, particularly Herrick’s salty, wine-greased version of it.

Taking a social media break (as is my custom) but will leave you with this, my setting of Robert Herrick’s terrific broadside against hypocrisy:

No-one is quite sure how the #Oscars got their name—Bette Davis’s first husband? Margaret Herrick’s uncle? But “Oscar”—a name from ancient #Gaelic legend—owes its modern popularity to James Macpherson’s 18th-century “Ossian” poems

Betjeman occupies a niche adjacent to Herrick’s in my idolatrous poetry shrine. And then he has a little votive next to Herrick’s in my devotional verse chapel. It evens out.

Have you seen this concept? It is of course, bat-shit crazy.

This isn't the supposed "libel", but a report of Herrick's failed attempt on the floor.
