I wonder if Science News is still around and worth getting now. #science #journalism

Ugh. Scientific American is being sold. Another notch in humanity’s gun.

Anyone remember “Pushing Up Daisies”?

Would you rather be on vacation or at work? If you are on vacation, consider your answer and what you are doing. #life #failure

Hey Apple. How about a system prompt,like search, that lets you send data to an app of your choosing without opening the app or selecting it from a list/menu? #apple #productivity #ui

“Tell me. What is your life a metaphor for?” #writing

Futbol/soccer/football is apparently the rage here in the US now. It won’t last long. Nothing does. Kids will play, but adults will revert to the gladiatorial NFL. That’s what “the rage” means. #worldcup #breadandcircus

OK. Cheesesteak-flavored olive oil makes sense (sort of). Better if it were cheesesteak-flavored corn or vegetable oil. No, I haven’t tried it. What flavored product do you want to/have tried? #food

I hate Waveshare displays. Their docs/software assumes you are not the intended user/programmer. Learn to write user guides. Users don’t want technical documentation. No, I don’t want to use C/C++ (Yes, I know how. No, I choose not to.) #waveshare #display #failure #programming #micropython

Happy Typewriter Day I miss typewriters … 

“There is no future. There is no past. You never change. Time is the only thing that changes around you. You are caught in time’s flow and are changed by it. How you react determines who you are. There is only Now.” #writing

Good morning. It’s Tuesday. Back to the grind. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

We are in a transitional period between a time when humans determined their destiny and a time when machines and programs will. #life #ai

I womder if i should eat breakfast tomorrow. These human rituals are excessive.
