La Quinta?

I’m starting in on sketches of what I want my mask to look like when finished.

Late, but present. I will be making… A Halloween costume. It will be a wearable mask that covers my head and leaves my hands free. It will be open except on the front. I have no idea how I will do it yet, bit plenty of time to figure it out…

So, so good.

This is the way.

I just saw mangosteen in Chinatown Manhattan… First time seeing them in the us!!

Good questions. I own priorities, my team owns operation. Fixing this is on our list of priorities, not high enough to get the amount of attention needed to really fix it.

We have 3 (three. Three!!) redundant monitoring and alerting systems and have yet to detect the issues routinely found by our customers. Its not because we didn’t detect them, it’s because we have so many false positives we stopped looking (but still run the monitors).

Uuuuuugffhhhhhj

Red hot rebar headed downstream at 40mph - holy shit!

There is a steel mill (recycling plant) in my town. They give tours every Friday. I have been 3 times, twice with teams of (software) engineers.

If you want to go see what engineering means when lives are on the line, tour a steel mill. Fucking amazing.

Park tool has good, informative videos: park tool

Saint Sheldon Brown is one of the best, original sources for internet cycling knowledge.

Tentatively raises hand…

Yes, several times. Surprisingly: my shortest surgery (10 min to remove a device) resulted in about 10 days of serious depression. A shrink says this happens about 10 percent of the time. I wish I’d known this in advance, I’d have opted out. I will be more cautious in the future.

You don’t understand the depths of my shame.

I was in OS support for 5 years. I supported DOS 5.

I work with software Dev teams all day long, including designing highly available services.

And I do after hours tech support for elders (my folks) and house mates (my fam).

If anybody knows to reboot…

Well now I feel like an ass - this is what I’d tell my parents.

And yeah, that fixed it. I’m tempted to delete this whole embarrassing post, but I will leave it for the edification of others and to memorialize my shame.

Ahh the Midnight Mellon Mounter

The training program was 2x per week. For resistance training, they ran a set of machine based training, increasing resistance over time.

“3 sets of 10 repetitions as the main RT program on the following 6 weight-stack machines: leg curl, leg extension, arm curl, rowing, shoulder press, and chest press.”

As an old dude, over been wondering what I can do to made my skin tougher.

I just sent a friend this very question. Tusks for the good suggestions! Moved to Open board + swipe and it sends great.
