Cat was jumping from one ledge to the other so I had to take a fast shot and cropped the result, and the sky had a nice color today. I like the artistic end result.

I don’t like when someone from the outside the team try to dictate their design on my system. But, sometimes it is good the get new perspective and new ideas on the way things should be done. Especially if you encounter issues in your current design (scalability and security come to mind). If current design is working for you and your clients, there is no reason to change just because there are cooler toys these days. If you find yourself in too many problems and your current technology lags behind, consider starting from scratch having all the knowledge from the old system instead of trying to modify current code base (nice in theory, but most of the times no practical for time, money and resources available).

itsthetie.com (tumblr archive) had an ongoing comics about dysfunctional God, good boy Jesus, Luci[fer] the devil and other friends in modern day life situations.

These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

This Far Side is from 1992, and the xkcd from 2023.
The Broadway stage musical from 1959 and the movie from 1965 are considered classics, hence many references exist.

People are exited when birds visit their bird bath. In the Larson-verse a family is excited about slugs, which are usually an animal people less excited to see.

Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Books of The Times:

a vignette describing Mr. Nixon’s lack of mechanical ability, in which a Presidential aide, Stephen Bull, recounts having once been asked by the President to open an allergy‐pill bottle with teeth marks on its childproof cap where Mr. Nixon had apparently tried to gnaw it open.

On another note: The Poison Prevention Packaging Act of 1970 (PPPA) was signed into law by Richard Nixon on 1970

After one try you realize it’s not useful for writing but a great distraction from the actual things you need to do.

Those pens had about one working head, one that half worked and the rest dry from the beginning, you spent most of the time just playing with the springs. This seems like a good analogy for current AI usage.

ME was crap, NT was a workhorse (as long as you didn’t try to install new stuff too often) and CE… was a wird alien no one know exactly what to do with it (almost had the potential but Microsoft blew it as usual). Win2K was a fine rather stable beast.
