Physiotherapy / back update: everything hurts. But the shooting nerve pain down the right leg is significantly better.

Kids, you too can spend your 20s and 30s slouched over a computer with terrible posture to experience such joy.

Since I see folks on #BomSky doing lore .. and that I have some Dylan-folks following me..

I have a few pieces of lore, but this is by far the greatest.

A CD, saying "To Sanjay, Sorry I'm not Bob Dylan." signed by Leonard Cohen.

Never really got into social media after being a very social internet person in the IRC and ICQ days. This place seems so nice though - so many people here that I really like. And am taking a bit of a break from work and a bit laid up with a bad back. Gonna try and be chatty.. Hello world.

If you need to share Jupyter notebooks with others, you should definitely check out notebooksharing.space - in particular, it has a nifty command line uploader (as easy as "pip install nbss-upload") that makes it super easy to share a notebook.

My new favourite site on the internet: bobserve.com - meticulous archive of every bob dylan performance with set lists and links to audio where available. Incredible work @bobserve.com - would LOVE to make a map with this data some point.
