Should I be concerned that the drug dog really likes my feet?

In retrospect, maybe having lox with breakfast wasn’t such a great idea when I’ll be masked for some 20 hours… 😷🐟

About fucking time. Also, we as a society are pretty shitty for not noticing it until the dudes join in. #ChildCare #parenting #ParentingIsRealWork

Well, I DNF’d a 50k, but since it was supposed to be a marathon I don’t feel too bad for finishing three of four loops. Don’t matter, got cava.

That mud looks pretty gnarly, but it’s 10x better than it has been in the past.

Lawyer dies after his hidden gun goes off during MRI scan

Leandro Mathias de Novaes’ gun went off due to magnetic field in the MRI scanning room:

It's a superconducting electromagnet, mate. The metal detectors on the door aren't there for your explodey penis substitute, they're there because ferrous metals go ZOOOOM if they get too close to the high-Tesla field!

It's like the dipshit ignored the pre-MRI fact sheet/briefing.

I just recommended this piece to someone so I should probably get in the habit of posting these here.

If you've never read @whereistanya 's piece about glue work (https://noidea.dog/glue), take the time. It's very worth it and will make you a better engineer and a better leader.

> Thanks to the sunny weather of the past few days, the course is currently quite dry and very walkable.

I will believe that when I see it tomorrow. 😝

Have you ever considered participating in #VoxPupuli leadership? Elections are kicking off today and it's probably easier to get involved than you might think.

Also, I've got a hoodie for the first person to submit a nomination, so chop chop get on it! #Puppet @puppet #community

"Most of what gets shared as heartwarming stories are usually temporary, small-scale responses to systemic failures. I wish we found it just as inspirational to make structural changes to unjust systems, but I don’t know if our culture knows how to tell those stories."

A surprisingly good description of why current “AI” will not ever be able to advance the state of the art. It can only regurgitate existing information using a lossy algorithm. #AI #chatGPT

Ah, #Trollekelder, my old friend. #CfgMgmtCamp

So I’ve had lots of salmiak before, but never while wearing a face mask. I wasn’t expecting my eyes to burn.

@jonathanmatthews @filippo some of us masked pretty diligently. Definitely not enough of us though.
