Mastodawn

Today I went to Melbourne's most joyous event: Pascoe Vale Pups by the Pool. On the last day before the pool closes at the end of their summer season, they invite the local dogs for a swim. I don't own a dog but I go every year because it's so delightful! As promised I took lots of pictures. Thread incoming!

First time at a big lecture where they've handed out little bits of paper for people to write their questions instead of having to ask out loud. Love it! So much better. (Also as it is an arts uni of course the 'basic' paper they've used for this is amusingly good quality)

i have discovered the secret to compiling to C: if gcc struggles with 100kloc functions full of always_inline invocations, simply don't do that. you are flying too close to the sun
