Busy day today. Woke up a bit later than usual. Played Mario Kart with my daughter for a while, then we put together a Lego set while my wife did some grocery shopping. Put up the outside Christmas decorations, made sure my snowblower is working, bought some salt and got my oil changed

Man libraries rule. I was looking for a particular chapter in a book for my daughter and couldn't find it
So I borrowed the book from Libby on my phone, and one search later I know exactly what chapter my daughter wanted to read
Sometimes technology is still cool
But libraries are cooler

You contemptible pig! I remained celibate for you. I stood at the back of a cathedral, waiting, in celibacy, for you, with three hundred friends and relatives in attendance. My uncle hired the best Romanian caterers in the state, Charlie Brown.
That rug really tied the room together, Charlie Brown.
I’m not the guy you kill, Charlie Brown. I’m the guy you buy!

Abolish ICE is the absolute minimum acceptable policy.
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

Video games are a medium, not an art form. Some games are art. Some are not. The defining feature of the medium is interactivity, and if the quality of that is so poor that it detracts from the rest of the experience, I'd classify it as "bad"

We don’t need to reform ICE.
We don’t need alternatives to ICE.
We don’t need to engage in dishonest debates wondering what the U.S. would do without ICE.
ICE isn’t even 23 years old. Most adults know a world without ICE. And the billions used to fund ICE can be used to meet people’s basic needs.

Went to see (in order) Fallujah, Entheos, The Zenith Passage, Tracheotomy, and (not pictured) Warforged tonight at Reggie's. It was incredible to see Scott Carstairs from Fallujah also play with Entheos, back to back

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair.—Douglas Adams

I've spent my career in software engineering mostly doing brownfield development. Working on existing projects and improving them with new features/refactors. The end result of this is that I don't have a ton of practical systems design knowledge. Any tips on gaining that knowledge are welcome

Paradox of automation
edit
The paradox of automation says that the more efficient the automated system, the more crucial the human contribution of the operators. Humans are less involved, but their involvement becomes more critical. Lisanne Bainbridge, a cognitive psychologist, identified these issues notably in her widely cited paper "Ironies of Automation."[49] If an automated system has an error, it will multiply that error until it is fixed or shut down. This is where human operators come in.[50] A fatal example of this was Air France Flight 447, where a failure of automation put the pilots into a manual situation they were not prepared for.[51]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:byjjq67p7iau6qufzjmizpbn/bafkreie4ootzzyowpylsxjg7gxsp63iujxh4qceuuxxhwm63yrm2qffa4e@jpeg)
