Had to look this one up:
Filippo di ser Brunellesco di Lippo Lapi (1377 – 15 April 1446), commonly known as Filippo Brunelleschi (/ˌbruːnəˈlɛski/ BROO-nə-LESK-ee, Italian: [fiˈlippo brunelˈleski]) and also nicknamed Pippo by Leon Battista Alberti,[4] was an Italian architect, designer, goldsmith and sculptor. He is considered to be a founding father of Renaissance architecture. He is recognized as the first modern engineer, planner, and sole construction supervisor.[5][6] In 1421, Brunelleschi became the first person to receive a patent in the Western world.[7][8] He is most famous for designing the dome of the Florence Cathedral, and for the mathematical technique of linear perspective in art which governed pictorial depictions of space until the late 19th century and influenced the rise of modern science.[9][10] His accomplishments also include other architectural works, sculpture, mathematics, engineering, and ship design.[6] Most surviving works can be found in Florence.

The first season of the Netflix show "Medici" is about Cosimo, but there's a large portion about Brunelleschi and his dome. The show is pretty good. The second season about the rise of Lorenzo good too.

The importance Brunelleschi's dome and use of perspective cannot be overstated. He effectively invented what we moderns considered art and architecture before we slid into solipsistic technological barbarism, and rejected the idea of beauty in favor of being revolting pigs wallowing in a mire of rotten shit.

Willowed:
The reason these missiles have been so hard to destroy is that the IDF has found that, literally, every mosque, every school, every hospital, every clinic, and every UN building in all of Gaza was stocked full of ready to fire Hamas missiles. (they have released pictures of captured stockpiles) Accordingly, the IDF is well on its way towards capturing and/or destroying every mosque, every school, every hospital, every clinic, and every UN building in all of Gaza. But you can see why this takes quite a bit of time. A UN commissioner was complaining bitterly a couple days ago that Israel has now destroyed over 80 UN facilities located inside Gaza. Posted by: Tom Servo As soon as the first missile was found in a UN building, I would have called for EVERY UN facility to be destroyed and I would be filing charges i.

Very interesting history. Wouldn't hang this painting but thanks.
--- Walks of Italy dot com: The Florence Duomo Unveiled: 7 Fascinating Historical Facts #4. By 1380, most of the Florence Cathedral was complete, except for the challenging dome. It wasn’t until 1420 that city leaders organized a competition to find an engineer for the task. Enter Brunelleschi, who boldly claimed he could design the perfect dome but kept his methods secret to avoid competition. He declared he wouldn’t use traditional wooden support, a costly option due to shipping expenses. This was met with skepticism, but Brunelleschi challenged his critics to prove their own expertise by making an egg stand upright on a flat surface without any assistance. After everyone failed to do so, Brunelleschi took the egg, slightly cracked its bottom to create a flat surface, and easily made it stand upright. He then explained that, just like the egg, his dome could be constructed using a similarly simple and clever method. Ultimately won the bid with his innovative plan that sparked imagination.

Don Surber's column today has a really spot-on phrase, which should be tattooed on the foreheads of every Hamas member and installed in a mosaic in the lobby of the UN.
“It should be obvious by now that so many of the creeps who purport to weep for Palestine don’t really care about Palestinians, dead or alive, or about Israelis, or about the historical and moral intricacies of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

For anyone interested in Florence, the early Renaissance, and Brunelleschi, The Feud That Sparked The Renaissance is a great read typhat details the rivalry of Brunelleschi and Ghiberti for the commission to create the doors of the Baptistry adjacent to the Duomo.
Ghiberti won out and created one of the early Renaissance's great masterpieces, the so-called Gates of Paradise. Copies are still in place today. Brunelleschi may have had the last laugh when he won the commission for the dome.

As long as Costco keeps giving it away at a stupendous price. Posted by: Yudhishthira Sam's has their spiral sliced honey glazed hams for $2.98/lb. Had one at Thanksgiving. Picked up oone Sunday for Christmas. Leftover goes for sammiches and ham & bean soup. - Walmart and Sams both stock a gold and purple foil wrapped ham that is cheap and turns out really great. If you keep your eyes open at walmart they'll mark theirs down to ridiculous clearance pricing to try and move it. IIRC I've seen it for under $1/lb before. Never seen that at Sams, only WM.

Posted by: Nikki Haley - No R candidates will discuss voter fraud because Trump said pussy at December 11, 2023 10:25 AM (6Y/Rl) I think it was propaganda to assuage their own people - Israeli and Arab polling (FWIW) was showing a slide in support for Hamas in Gaza, because people perceived that Hamas was just taking money and not killing any Jews. I think they thought the Jews would knuckle under like usual, and they could please their Iranian masters with a big, flashy killing rampage, while also scoring an agitprop win with the home crowd, by broadcasting their handiwork.

If you're not experienced or responsible enough to not be on your parents' health plan at 25, then you're not responsible enough to vote or buy property or get married or have a gun or drink or gamble.

The other amazing thing about the original MS is that James Coburn's Britt, the knife-and-gun man, speaks only about nine words in his first two scenes.

'Slice Nr 25' gets me a whole slice that's about ¾ to 1" thick. I can take that home and cube it to use when I make red beans or other dishes.

Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop Worse. Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.” CS Lewis Posted by: Puddleglum, cheer up for the worst is yet to come at December 11, 2023 10:53 AM (sAmhv) 334

ON THE HILL: “Nikki Haley confirmed as new U.S. envoy to the United Nations” by Anne Gearan: “[Nikki] Haley, who has no formal diplomatic experience, won significant Democratic support. The vote of 96-4 reflected some Democrats’ view that Haley would be a sensible diplomat and speak her mind in the new administration… She said she… would reassert the traditional role of the United States in recent decades of protecting Israel from United Nations action it considers biased. She also declared her support for moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.” [WashPost] Posted by: L - They don't have to outrun the bear, they only need to outrun us - for now at December 11, 2023 10:54 AM (GshMh) 336
