Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

The benefits of neurodiversity are obvious if people would stop to think about it. Different ways of thinking means that different skills are easier for different people. A mentally diverse population can therefore do much more, learn much more and create much more than a mental monoculture. /1

Four gallons of water weigh approximately 33.36 pounds (15.12 kilograms) at room temperature. The weight can vary slightly depending on the temperature of the water.

That's interesting. So 20 reps of lifting and carrying that shopvac bucket about twenty feet should be enough for today.

My car just sent me a message saying to check it's tires. It thinks one is low. It didn't tell me which one, and I wonder why didn't it call the garage and book me in for my Spring tire swap? It knows where it goes for care.

This feels like a new notebook that may be too nice to write in. Will my first post come back to remind me of what I was doing or thinking now? I was thinking oh, I can post news links here, but there really isn't any news I want to propagate right now.
