Dr. Tom 7 Murphy VII Ph.D. !

I agree! It gave me hope for the future.

I liked this game!

Yes this is on my list! But unfortunately the making of the videos is NOT the fun part! You have something in particular in mind?

It's a screenshot from CNN. A newscaster is agape at some statistics, though it's implausible that he hasn't already seen those statistics before going on the air to talk about them. The statistics: In Feb 2025, "Gen Z" polled with +10pp net favorability for Trump, and in Jan 2026, they polled at -32pp. Donald is inside the infographic. They choose a picture of him that makes him look like he just got some bad news and is pretending to know what it means and that he is tough. Six stars in the infographic signal "America." To be honest, the design makes it look like Windows 95, with the blue title bar and white text, and the color swatches that let the anchor annotate the infographic make the whole thing feel a lot like Microsoft Paint. That's fine with me. I'm just upset about the missed pun.

I try not to allow much "political messaging" thought into my brain but I still get irrationally upset when an obvious pun is missed. How do you run a story on Trump's net approval among Gen Z dropping 42pp (!) in a year, but miss the "Not Z" angle???

Big music fan (and maker) here! I am not up to date on Autechre—maybe I should be—but in college I was thoroughly into Warp/Rephlex stuff. I still like trawling Bandcamp for modern marvels. Here’s one I loved recently: touched.bandcamp.com/track/admira...

Thanks for telling me! I recently did a server migration. tom7.org/ruperts should have them now!

Acorns roasting on an open fire?

It's like the movie poster from TENET but it's a board in my shop with symmetric tenons on it, and it says TENON instead. Sometimes I just get an idea in my head like that and it's not even a good joke, but in order for me to make progress on my day I need to put the joke out of its misery and into yours.

For Egg, there should always be an adjacent vertex that’s closer as long as you aren’t at (one of) the globally closest. So walk the graph from an arbitrary starting vertex?

Thanks! It’s actually the ascii 7, U+0037, but I guess if you get a gold sponsorship level they will throw in a free U+20E3 COMBINING ENCLOSING KEYCAP!

Oh certainly, especially with the engineering plastics like glass-reinforced nylon. Printing has come so far!

I posed this question in a pinned comment: does adding reflection in addition to rotations affect the problem?
