Output from a Python program that generates work sheets based on nuisance from my son’s school math curriculum

I got sent my 7-year-old’s new math curriculum, and home support guidance so I made a Python program: generates multiplication & division problems, randomised encouragement, and XP to save for Robux or whatever. Couldn’t settle on a title, so I randomise from a list of 20… all thoroughly cringe.

A Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller, RP2040, rendering Mandelbrot

So a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller can be persuaded to calculate and render out Mandelbrot using Python without too much bother at all

I am doing taxes this morning. I hope your day is more exciting than mine!

A Nintendo Switch playing Portal 2. In the evening, outside, grassy and trees

Playing Portal 2 in the evening shade on a Switch with a beer and my cat. Just like god intended

Jones. Last survivor of the Nostromo. Sitting with me outside

Happy international cat day to my beautiful adopted adult cat Jones

I love the little shithead

A little hedgehog. They are vibing

A little hedgehog. They are vibing next to the tree trunk. I wonder if they’ve found food there!

I was chilling on the grass outside my house and I met this one just vibing

I think Uber might be having a bit of a wobble today. I got some refunds through for trips I rated 5* without asking. A driver didn’t show up, but picked someone else up across the city. And I got a pet uber that wasn’t communicated to the driver that I was bringing a cat. They were chill though

I’ve been watching the Alien movies recently for reasons. And I maintain that Alien3 is the finest movie in that series

Rabbit chilling in my park ❤️🐇

I genuinely must apologise to my parents. They were correct. The perfect bolognaise includes anchovies fillets

Put them in mine tonight. It was a total game changer

I've been a little worried about my laptop today, it's been making really loud noises just doing basic things, like was it overheating? After searching for the issue for about 30 minutes, turns out that my house's water heater had kicked in.. 😭

lol he asked me to turn on subtitles so he could hear it better

Hanging out with my 7yo boy. Watching some Lowe Decks. I suggested another Star Trek show, but he insisted since this was his “OG”

Playing some Little Kitty Big City, and my own cat Tommy is intently focused on it

Eugh. I so need to deactivate my Twitter account. I keep on getting notifications of likes on my posts, but it's all bots, and they are ancient posts

Absolutely! I think it's clear that we have different perspectives here. And that's fine and healthy

I am saying it will be read that way by others, I know if I said that to folks who I lead they would read it as "I should work longer to succeed". I see your perspective, however, I think it might be clouded by your own experiences. Which is fine. But should not be immune to being called up about

Why? I don’t exist in that ecosystem anymore and never will. Past me was a dumbass to comply anyway

It’s important to be mindful of our words and not risk encouraging burnout with aspirational language. Saying people shouldn’t do all-nighters ever should not be controversial

Honestly, I don’t doubt that. But we must be careful not to imply otherwise! I now run a zero-crunch studio, but in the last 10 years, I’ve worked at places where that wasn’t the culture. That’s not a healthy environment, that’s collective self-harm! And we need to enthusiastically set an example

I have to challenge this. Romanticizing crunch is unhealthy. Now that we're older and people look up to us, we should set good examples and be strict about work/life balance. When we crunched, self-imposed or not, it wasn’t virtuous, it was a mistake.

I am loving using the Chinese app Xiaohongshu/RedNote that folks are flocking to

It's so super wholesome, and I've mostly been using it for food recipes for which it has never failed to deliver!

They also simply look straight up rad colourful!

Twitter has kinda become overwhelmed with racism and transphobia, so there is that against it I suppose

Turned 41 yesterday. Grabbed a bottle of wine to share with my parents tonight - got carded at checkout. Apparently, I still pass for under 25? I'll take the win. 🍷😏

More Star Trek Voyager. Closing out season 4 now. Love that this new starship set is shamelessly redressed between scenes and has breakfast table stools appear for some shots for some reason

Star Trek Voyager s03e23 Living Witness. Neelix is pictured in a security uniform

In my ongoing rewatch of Star Trek Voyager. I've noticed this ongoing running gag where in all the worst timelines, Neelix is in security. Either this means when the going gets tough, they get that desperate. Or you need to keep Neelix away from security at all cost! It will result in bad things!

Hell yes

I used to run 10k at my gym while watching an episode of Voyager. Had I watched this one doing that I'd have been hugging the trash can puking up after I'm certain

The episode premise is that sometimes women pretend to have been violently assaulted. And in this instance the lie resulted in some "innocent" man dying. Fuck off. What the actual fuck?
