one of my proudest moments was being told by a former Gove staffer that he once angrily proclaimed:
"I am NOT an eldritch horror!"
in a team meeting, because of me.

about 50% of Bluesky is the 5% of people who are about 3000% more engaged with politics than the average person having daily slapfights over the future behaviour of ppl who decide who theyre going to vote for depending on the last colour they saw and won't remember who they chose 5 min later

Ginny and I saw Coyote vs. Acme this afternoon. It's a wonderfully anarchic take on the classic New Yorker piece that was later turned into a novella. Even better, our good friend Mark LaPierre was the Lighting Console Programmer. Look for him in the credit roll after the Accountants. 🙃

Now that the academic year in the US has begun (and is soon to begin in the UK and mainland Europe), I'd like to share some of my free YouTube videos that might be useful to instructors and their students. The first video demonstrates how to hand data with leading zeros in Excel.

My home river was the North Fork of the Shenandoah River. There was a quarry at the edge of my family's property and, on the other side of the road, a really cool two-cable pulley system for moving small items across the river. My dad never let us climb the tower to see if it still worked, though.
RT with your home river.
I grew up in a village on the Wey, sometimes we'd hire a rowing boat on summer afternoons and dad would row us between green banks.
Now its the Gwendraeth, shorter, more of a mountain river, home to otters and egrets.
