I was at a thrift store today and found an unused high-quality mandoline for $15. Pretty neat. Scalloped potatoes for dinner, with the "All Blue" potatoes we got at the farmers market yesterday.

I got some new flags, most importantly this one. This is the flag that says You Will Regret What You Have Done.

It was years ago when I realized I'm kinda old.
Saw the new Star Wars movie and found myself sad about the destruction of ancient structures.
Watched a Marvel movie with an airport battle and objected, hey, people _built_ that, don't, no, you can't just wreck it.
I'm definitely behind the times.

New flag up. It's a pretty centrist flag, really, compared with a lot of others out there.

Toasting some croutons for a dinner salad. It just seems like the wok is the right tool for it -- but -- olive oil, is that allowed?
A little bit hi-brow/low-brow ingredients but it will get enough umami I think.

There's a rich literature about failure in complex organizations. Serious people know this (or know about their limits of understanding). I ... just cannot believe we are letting such jokers anywhere near these systems.

I cleaned out a closet yesterday, and behind all the boxes and dust I found a cap I got at a conference once upon a time. And eight+ years ago I tossed it into the back of a closet in disappointment.
I guess I've found it in time to bury it again.

I have a flagpole in front of my house, and for a couple of years I've been flying various flags on it, changing them whenever I feel like it. This one is going to stay up for a good long time now.
