Holy cow! 110mph on Amtrak, west of Kalamazoo. Just 70 more miles per hour to get to real HSR!

Attention!

I wanna swim with the dolphins.
Hike through sacred temples.
Be at peace with the world.

That’s my new adventure, and I hope to do it sooner than later.

Sunrise from the California Zephyr Amtrak #6, eastbound near Creston, Iowa.

Attention Unix Wizard Senior Team Manager, doing 'setenv' on one environment variable does not have the magic side effect of changing any other environment variables, even those whose values were originally derived from the previous value of the environment variable you just changed.

And I do not appreciate you referring to my cluster as 'fucked up' because of this.

In better news it appears that the Earth's told has shifted enough to allow the morning sun to come over the trees and shine in the front door, at least on those days when it's not raining. And not for very long, so there's no picture - you'll just have to take my word for it. But perhaps spring will get here eventually.

Oh. It's Monday. Someone has tied fishing weights to my eyelids. A day full of meetings ("the practical alternative to real work") looms ahead. I'd rather just go back to bed till Tuesday. Is that an option?

Ok, Wiley Coyote super genius developer. If my visualization code isn't producing the pretty pictures it generates for all the other team members, perhaps, just perhaps, it's because the data your untested code is generating is absolute fucking incoherent shit. Now, I'm not claiming it actually is AFIS, but the chance of a flaw in your masterpiece is an idea that you might find worth consideration given that two months of intense work has confirmed the absence of any other possible explanation.
