Christmas x Halloween display; Disassembled iPhones as wall art; A smoke detector that generates NFTs to pay for damage?
And my award for best decoration of the season goes, hands down, to this cafe, for chucking a length of tinsel and three baubles onto the giant spider decoration that’s been hanging there since Hallowe’en. A perfect summing-up of Christmas 2020. pic.twitter.com/4VpXAMAieS

Startup idea: a “smart fire alarm,” which, instead of making an obnoxious noise, discreetly emails you. You could even set it to send a weekly digest rather than bother you every time there’s an incident.

How cool would it be if it auto-generated an NFT of the fire that you could auction off to pay rebuilding costs?

How St. Nicholas became Santa Claus
NatGeo looks at the slow process of a Greek saint, born in the year 280, becoming the patron saint of children, and ultimately Santa Claus:
In the better-known tale, three young girls are saved from a life of prostitution when young Bishop Nicholas secretly delivers three bags of gold to their indebted father, which can be used for their dowries.
"The other story is not so well known now but was enormously well known in the Middle Ages," Bowler said. Nicholas entered an inn whose keeper had just murdered three boys and pickled their dismembered bodies in basement barrels. The bishop not only sensed the crime, but resurrected the victims as well. "That's one of the things that made him the patron saint of children."

Racist Playmobil figures
Businessweek:
While the three weeks of festivities leading up to the Dec. 5 celebration of Sinterklaas, or Saint Nicholas, will surely take place this year, they’re drawing international scrutiny. A panel that advises the United Nations on human rights has questioned whether depictions of the mischievous helpers, collectively called Black Petes and typically portrayed by whites in blackface paint, are racist.The New Yorker has more.
...
Retailers are voting for the Petes by keeping shelves stocked with goods bearing their image. Stores run by Royal Ahold NV, (AH) owner of the Stop & Shop chain in the U.S., sell everything from Black Pete children’s outfits and face-painting kits to bath gels bearing grinning Black Petes with wide lips and gold hoop earrings. Giant stuffed Petes will again climb the atrium at De Bijenkorf, Amsterdam’s premier department store. Toy store Bart Smit sells Playmobil sets of three Black Petes for 9.99 euros ($13.50).
