I have bonus pictures today. I've been walking through alleys and back roads around where I live, and while I've seen a lot of fungi and lichens, I haven't seen anything quite this nice. I suspect the stalks are Cladonia transcendens.

October 2 - A utility pole that's been doing its job for a while now.

I worked with a very talented junior programmer a few years ago. Me, talking to her about her C code: "ah, I like how you used a linked list here" Her: "a what?" Turns out she had little formal training with programming or C, but regularly invented the data structures many of us were taught.

I was her manager at the time. She'd use our 1:1s to grill me about her own code. She'd always bring a PR on which she wanted feedback. I think she could feel when code could be better, but wasn't always sure how. She relentlessly sought feedback.

Truly one of the best I ever worked with. I hope she's doing well.

My view on copyright hasn't really changed much in 20 years. The implications of my view, however...

Got to use a sledge hammer today. Didn't even throw out my back.

This event happened while a coworker was leaning over squinting at the board, and also fried my laptop motherboard.
