a friend asked me if electricians were sabotaging data centers, doing the will of the ppl etc, and I was kind of shocked to even hear the question.

changed my life. I'm glad I met him when I did, and I'm so sad he's gone.

Filters, sedimentation, flocculation

This was the bottom of my coffee cup after I left it out all day

I bike a lonely road: the only road; that I , have ever known

theres another guy who bikes up to the site, and he always takes off cartoon style with tires squealing, smoke etc. whenever we both leave at the same time to go down the canyon.

I think downstairs neighbor is listening to radiohead at deafening volume

I’m wearing my favorite t shirt

Cheryl Hines witnessing an assassination attempt just makes me think about curb. Like if they got trump to do a scene where he dies the same way they got Barbara boxer to do that scene about dry cleaning.

Going in and out of work

New site. Water facility up a canyon. Apparently some apprentices climbed the crane tower to take pictures a few days ago, I really want to do that.

I can’t stand tearjerker safety orientation videos

running list of ideas that would make college more exciting: 1: allow dropping a class up to immediately before finals week, the tuition you owe is pro rated exponentially. drop halfway through, you owe 1/4 tuition. the day before finals, 1/2 tuition. only pay full price after turning in the final.

All of this seems chill

This is always more impressive in person

I want to just drive around in m'truck with the 4x4 on. only because its finally snowy out.

Canvas has a panda that assists you now

When one of the shakers knocks together a dovetail in The Testament of Ann Lee

My circuits class has a very strange way of grading exams where the raw score you see at first is very low and then it changes after it’s graded by hand. Not sure what the exact deal is. Maybe some answers aren’t graded until they’re hand checked but canvas counts them as 0 temporarily?

this is the scenario right now

I went to my first office hours ever with a professor and we talked briefly about what I could concentrate in if I want to get a job in utah. its basically power and defense, I guess L3 Harris is big out here. I looked the company up and its like krupp or ig farben level evil.

one strange thing about working through this calc book on my own is that some sections have 160 problems. doing half of them you would still do like 400 problems each chapter, but when I look at actual homework problem sets from like MIT, they only have people doing at most 20 problems per set.

This problem struck me as noir. Like, how long a shadow does the mysterious man cast as he’s hustling away from the scene of the crime under a streetlight, on the wrong side of town.

auspicious that this is the physics book we're using

this is one of the buildings I'm having classes in this coming semester www.reddit.com/r/uofu/comme...

my grandma gave me a bunch of books, a lot of nicely bound 'great books' that would be sold door to door in the 60s to up and coming accountants like my grandfather. she says she can't read anymore. I'm not sure what my response to that will be when the time comes. get really into audiobooks?

I’m part of a framing carpenters group on FB and this was a comment on a thread asking about the best cordless tool brand. I guess when you view it this way it truly does not matter if you go dewalt or Milwaukee.

my Vivaldi tabspace

Replacement handle for a pan. From a scrap of white oak off a pallet. It’s much chunkier than what it replaced, with a flat bottom profile for more precise control of ground beef for nachos.

This brawl I never heard about. From the absolutely wonderful Wikipedia page entitled “Legislative violence”

I missed so many opportunities to talk like this as a foreman.

Stand for the table saw. It’s the same height as the one you can just buy from dewalt, but this is heavier.

I think galvanized steel made this edit

New mug off eBay. This is some kind of special glass, not a ceramic. Good mugfeel.

So the problem is finding the point of the blue function (x^2 + 1) where the normal line passes through the point (3,1). After 2 hours the solution I keep getting is the green line and the books answer is the purple line. I’m not losing my mind right. The book is wrong?

the job board on my locals website is just like 'dude theres no fucking jobs. im so sorry ; ;'

I built a deck with some people today and my friend took a video of me jumping on it to demonstrate its stability
