Math and Science in the kitchen
Our microwave gave out a few months ago. More specifically, the internal light flashed and it made THROMB MOAM sounds and a red warning light came on if we try to use it. I figure it's time. The new one has 2 sound levels: LOUD and off (as opposed to our toaster oven which has 3: LOUD, reasonable, and off). It turns out that "off" is fine for the microwave.

I'm a little sad that the Anderson's Pea Soup Restaurant "down the way" (about 40 minutes) is closing:

For those not familiar, it's been something of a central coast icon since the 70s. Ellyn and I had dinner there a few months ago and it was.. pretty tired looking. So it's not surprising. But still - end of an era.
@tenderlove We're in the process of updating to ruby 3.2 and I was wondering which of our objects is out of shape. I've seen a couple of your talks about ruby shapes and how to make objects more shapely - and I was wondering if there is a gem that will tell me which instances/classes are not good shape citizens. And if such a gem does not exist and would be easy, I vote for the name pe_teacher or jazzercise_instructor.
@tenderlove I'm only about 1/5 through, but I'm recommending Starter Villain by John Scalzi. 2 reasons:
# I imagine that the cover is what you might look like if you dressed up and took off your human mask.
# I've heard you talk about crappy science and piss poor data (at various railsconfs), so I think the subject matter might appeal.

Hmph. I want linking to a blog to do something a little better in mastadon.
