Definitely remind myself to ask if they want the long or short version before launching off into it.

Jpeg2000, love it. Still no support in Google chrome.

Explosively

Our lucher was in boarding last week, and I guess got used to waking up far earlier than we do normally. So now expects breakfast at 7am instead of closer to 10am. And also wants morning walks when we normally we do lunchtimes.

So basically being annoying all morning while I’m trying to sleep.

I had a mate back in uni who would pour lager from a pint glass straight into his eyes if his daily contacts started to dry up. Somehow nothing bad ever came of it, I have no idea how. Inexplicable behaviour and zero repercussions.

That one with the head like a penny and uses it like a door is pretty cool.

We used to intentionally add wrong data to our datasets so we could circle it afterwards, declare it “outlying data” and gain the extra points for spotting and documenting it.

I’m not bitter about my formal education, honest…

Our is only 19kg, but she has 37 elbows. Still wants to sit on us, and from a running jump

Pretty sure that’s not how captures work. You don’t fail them, you add to the training set. You’re against the masses as to whether they considered it a traffic light when they were shown it.

Sounds quite zen. Might be nice

A horrible thought I heard once and can never get out of my mind:

Our bodies originally had horizontal spines and everything hung down from it. Now we hold our spines vertically, but the internals now all hang wrong.

No idea if true (seems like it’s simplifying eons of evolution), but it makes me very uncomfortable imagining it.

As a programmer who works with people on both side of the pond, it often doesn’t matter what time it is there, as they’re not necessarily working standard hours anyway. They have families and errands and choose to work overnight essentially at random, so we’ve adapted to communicating asynchronously for 90% of our work.
