Today was supposed to be my last day at IonQ. I've received none of the paperwork I was told to expect. I'm in the superposition of employment.

I much prefer to have a solid plan that executes well so a last-minute push isn't needed. Things happen though.

Well, I got the club autocross car repaired for the clinic on Sunday. Apparently I do my hobbies like I do my work, push to get it done then crash the day after.

This is so good. Everyone should have to watch this clip, especially in tech. Paraphrasing: “If you want to include women/minorites, but have no plan to keep them safe, that is not inclusivity, that is exploitation.”

I might need a break from working on Honda Fits. So many hard to reach bolts. My arms are pretzels

It's a rule that vehicle manufacturer diagnostic software is terrible. Terrible UX. Terrible functionality. Terrible licensing. Terrible dependency on expensive hardware interfaces.

Well @cliffle , I finally figured out why my truck's ABS triggers at low speeds: previous owner put a stack of metal shims under the driver's front wheel speed sensor. They moved the sensor just far enough from the gear teeth to be unreliable at low speeds.
