Bucky and our departed cat Hal would never get in close contact. Bucky would not abide it. But Bucky has been incredibly tolerant and patient with the tiny grey visigoths.
I’ve been away from social media, so a quick update. In September, my in-laws took in a stray cat that was hanging around the house. On September 19, the day it was scheduled to be spayed, she gave birth to four kittens. Sunday night, my brother-in-law arrived with two kittens for us.
I dreamt last night that I somehow had access to paper copies of our faculty’s email. I learned that the government now required faculty to log how much time they spent farting, and they were dutifully responding.

you should at the very least design your coffee machine with the understanding that the user probably hasn't had coffee yet
tltroupI follow the bot for the Simple Sabotage Field Manual and a Tech Self Care bot. Both bots are scheduled within minutes of each other, and sometimes I’m confused by which post is sabotage and which post is self-care.
For example, “Delete all memos and deny knowledge of updates” could go either way.
Russell IvanovicIf your AI features are so amazing, charge people extra for them and watch them pay.
The only reason to bundle AI and raise prices is that deep down you know the features aren't good enough to pay for, but you have to recoup the money you spent on them. And guess what, everyone is taking this option. Weird, right?

Square roots with compass and straight edge.
Given line segments AB of length x and BC of length 1, construct D so AD is length x-1, then E so DE meets AD at a right angle and AE is length x+1.
Then DE is length 2√x, and can be bisected to find √x.

Graham Sutherland / Polynomialif you've ever messed up a dimension or a hole position on something you're building, don't be too hard on yourself.
at least you're not the Cisco design engineer who caused an entire product line recall by placing the mode button (which resets the switch if held) directly above an RJ45 port.
