Took a college tour in the rain. The brick archways all over campus are not wide enough for a golf umbrella fit through.

As it happens, though, the East (back) property line is a drainage ditch with a culvert that passes under the street that runs along the North property line. I can't mow down there yet anyway. Need a few weeks of hot dry WX before the mud will hold up the riding mower. #AskMeHowIKnow

On the one hand, it's 6' lower ground.

On the OTHER hand, isn't wet ground better for a vertical?

Will definitely need longer guy stakes, though. Surface muck won't hold.

Apparently there’s a permanent limit on the number of OpenAI accounts you can have tied to the same phone number and also apparently deleting one of the accounts doesn’t open up a slot.

Hey so something I only figured out recently is that low level anxiety makes me feel really irritable and fighty.

And low level anxiety has a way of spiralling up to full blown anxiety.

So if you find yourself arguing with people online, that might be a sign that it's time to step back and concentrate on looking after yourself for a bit.

Splash cold water on your face, watch some funny animal videos, cuddle your dog, be kind to yourself.

@tcely @KuJoe That's where you justify the cost of something like PagerDuty. Then you get push notices, and texts, and calls, and more calls, until someone "acknowledges" the issue. Unless AWS has an outage and the PagerDuty connector doesn't actually work to say there's an issue. #AskMeHowIKnow

The More You Know….

When replacing the half axle, it is important to insert the new part FULLY into the transmission.

there are two types of people in the world:
1. those who need every light on, in the house, at all times
2. those who can get around using the glow off the front of their phone or other outside/ambient light sources
they inevitably marry and spend decades following each other around the house turning switches on and off

Actually I can see it wasn't the cat. All the ornaments are on one side of the tree. That can tip them over.

@kristinHenry Always always always put alt text on your images, even if you are "just" putting the picture in a reply to a friend. /o\ #askMeHowIKnow

If you aren’t sure whether you want to become a parent, start with a rescue dog, ideally part pittie.

You’ll get to practice having no personal space and being followed into the bathroom to make sure the toilet doesn’t eat you.

@Chellsview Dit lijkt mij meer een #ASS / #ASD dan een #ADHD dingetje te zijn. Al hebben beide ook een hele hoop overlappende kenmerken, zoals alles wat met executieve functies te maken heeft, toch kan het interessant zijn om dit te onderzoeken omdat er ook een hoop verschillen zijn en #ASS kenmerken bij vrouwen courant over het hoofd gezien worden, waardoor vrouwen niet altijd de juiste hulp krijgen. #AskMeHowIknow 🙂

@jimiadams Would this include general data science ethics and/or AI ethics? B/c there's a brand new Center for AI here @ Anschutz and there's a search out for an AI ethicist specifically #AskMeHowIKnow #Mastodon #Academia #AcademicMastodon

@brennen Conversely, working with people way dumber than you just drives you absolutely mad.
