In a way, a high score on Montreal Cognitive Assessment is bad too, it means the administration's behavior is account for by normal stupidity rather than an obvious, underlying dementia.
The employee in the adjacent cubicle is an actual dog. Forget robots, we're being replaced by dogs.
What are you using to replace TimeSnapper (all day screen recorder) for mac?
Trapped on red line. Tell my career I loved it.
Panera in some places is really slipping. Only plastic forks, only disposalable containers. Same premium prices.
Car seats are a Eugenics device to make sure parents who can't solve a rubik's cube are less likely to have kids that make it to adulthood.

I stand ready to sell you a segment of an infinite line of numbers. You can then in turn cut that line of numbers into any number of segments you'd like and sell them to *new people*. Except after 2020. Then the number of segments becomes fixed.
If you stumble across an alt-right guy on youtube, youtube will begin flooding your suggestions with alt-right content. It is a radicalization machine.
MS wants us to write raw LaTeX in a text editor. (Actually, this might not be a bad idea, last equation editor I learned to use no longer exists) https://x.com/kiskyface/status/951598428403978240
Fire & Fury: Last comment, John Kelly, I can't decide if he's a traitor to America for being willing to do the dirty work of anyone in power, or if he's just a unlikable hero like Jaime Lannister who will save the day & become a King Slayer rather than start a nuclear war.
Many of the people in the administration's royal court are traitors to America. They are just following orders. For evil to prevail, all it takes is enough technocrats to believe that power makes right & to work their magic that makes the bureaucracy move.

Did you get your delivery of F-52's? If you haven't Sweden is going to kick your ass. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2018/01/11/trump-lauded-delivery-of-f-52s-to-norway-the-planes-only-exist-in-call-of-duty/?tid=pm_pop&utm_term=.3bdfcf2f21c9
Fire & Fury thoughts- Lots of reviewers really hating on the author as being partisan. But ignore what he says about Trump & read what he as to say about the admin's factions-- many factions which don't fit into tidy partisan categories. For example...
Jarvanka is essentially left of center, plutocratic, limousine Liberals. Bannon is a neonazi, & Ryan et al are grandma-starving-conservatives. This really explains why the admin's actions are so incoherent & inconsistent politically speaking.

MERA/Fire & Fury. The pres is he who must not be named or one's tweet will be muted by probably most of my followers.
Fire & Fury thoughts- His campaign got pushed over the edge because of the laser like focus on PR & media. His administration is a legislative desert because it continues to focus on PR & media at the expensive of policy & politics.

Githubs website is down, but their source control still works.
More Fire & Fury thoughts: We've elected someone with dementia who can't answer straight q's & his staff are poring over the reality-detached comments & speeches to make federal policy. Like asking my 5 year old to make policy--he'll give an answer, but it doesn't make any sense.
I've ignored the "theory of normalization of deviance" twice today and so far nothing catastrophic has happened, so I guess it is safe to ignore it even more.

Do your civic duty! Go fill in the annual developer survey at Stack Overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/
Reading more of Fire & Fury. The only person in that camp playing 3D chess is Bannon. He seeks policies to infuriate the left because he thinks it will make left wing candidates move to the left & become unelectable. But it pumps up left wing involvement & voter turnout, too.
Imho, this is a thinking person's version of software code that is "too damn clever for it's own good"-- the reasoning is too complex to not be full of mistakes & bugs & unexpected consequences.

Reading a book on cognitive errors & wonder if people reviewing expensive books & rating them highly are actually rationalizing the $50 they spent on a book. (think of Manning here)

I set my RescueTime settings for office hours to brutal. It now knee caps me with a reminder about what a lousy goof off I am & loads up the todo-list website.
TODO: electrify the chair. Wire up the treat dispenser for when work is actually done.

META: Clarification, let I sound like I'm chasing followbacks for followbacks sake. On this account, my goal was interaction, chatting, sort of like a quieter version of slack. What is hard about Twitter is it has so many possible uses & everyone is going in different directions https://x.com/mistersql/status/948940756953305089

META: I'm going to use the "Dunbar Number" as a strategy for more efficient twitter usage, i.e. I'm going to do a bulk unfollow of people who never follow back.
That means you remaining folk are good enough, smart enough and darn it, good looking!

This is why we need to build Snowpiercer. Now if only there was a wanna-be dictator, a group of billionaires & some maybe poor-ish, rural supporters to fill it with. https://x.com/VaRailXpress/status/948880697967763456
