I never thought about that. I guess if 3D miter joins come to a round knife edge, this is sensible.

The way the wifi in my house varies between super strong and nonexistent just by moving things a tiny bit makes me think I have a standing wave. Or whatever the 2 inch radio version of that is.

So what, do I have to put the RF equivalent of auralex on the ceiling/walls or what's the play here

While left unsupervised over vacation, Dan at work made this very funny in-browser game about the sink:

(gingerly placing the additional evidence of corruption, harm, and degeneracy atop the already towering mountain of such evidence) surely this will be the thing that takes them down

It is best for your mental health that you are not emotionally engaged with every single murder, yes. If you are in the first group, especially.

There's a group that's sad when anyone gets murdered
and there's a group that's sad only when someone they like gets murdered
and the second group says the first group is faking it

I have spent a lot of time working on software that automatically synchronizes audio events with visual events and I think we need an app that you give a collection of explosion videos and it sync-sequences them to the 1812 overture.

if they are spacex rockets exploding that's just a bonus

the first step to knowing about something is intuitively hating it so much that you have to figure out what your problem is

Model: a conceptual representation of almost anything
Context: the information that goes with something. Almost anything.
Protocol: rules about how data is transmitted.

These are the generic words you use to pad out your backronym. Using them all in one thing, it's like a guy with three last names

Maybe. Is the hypothesis that if you could reproduce today the features of golden-era twitter, then your app would be as popular as golden-era tw? Or close?

I think that time has passed, and tw development shifted towards attempted profitability some time ago, drawing down on inertial goodwill.

I wear one of these things so people don't run me over. When I do, everyone treats me as a kind of dorky but trustworthy crossing guard type. try it?

I have worked with a few academic researchers over the years who are also careful and knowledgeable software engineers and boy do I miss them

I have been trying, for 30 years, to come up with a universal system for organizing all my files. Every year I get more files and more ways to organize them. Sometimes I have to migrate the system. At this point I'm thinking of hiring a librarian.
