Great Vietnamese cafe opened nearby, in addition to top tier sandwiches they have made from scratch smoothies & iced coffee. I’ve already completed one customer loyalty punchcard & it won’t be the last.

Another feel good but kind of sad story from NZ. A man living with a rare genetic disorder passed away, but not before winning the hearts of a bunch of good people. https://www.rnz.co.nz/life/people/andy-was-new-zealand-s-biggest-milk-tanker-fan-he-had-a-very-special-send-off

Starting a week-long long drive/vacation on Tuesday, starting with seeing Patrick Warburton's stand-up for the first (and possibly last!) time, followed by a self-guided checkbox tour of quite a few museums I want to check off my list: The VA Museum of Transportation, Virginia Tech Museum of Geosciences, and the Roanoke Pinball Museum and Science Museum of Western VA (they're right next to each other) in Blacksburg and Roanoke, and the VMI Museum, Virginia Museum of the Civil War, JMU Mineral Museum, and Luray Caverns in/around Harrisonburg. I'm also going to try and fit in The American Civil War Museum at Appomattox as well, but that's a ways out of my way unless I dogleg and go there on my way from Richmond to Blacksburg.

I saw the Naked Gun today. Experiences may vary, but I didn't really have any moments where I was guffawing at the movie, but that's okay. The jokes come rapid fire, in the dialogue, in the physical comedy, in the setups, in the background, in the props. Not all of them are going to land, but some of them will. Leslie Neeson is inspired casting, and exactly the kind of actor you need to play the role. I enjoyed it.

Few years back enjoyed the podcast I Was There Too with tons of fun interviews with minor actors in big films with tons of charming stories about Aliens/Speed/Groundhog Day etc. it vanished from major podcast sites & tried to dig but couldn’t figure it out. Just learned they’re all on Spotify now, yay!

Just learned they’re all on Spotify now, yay! If you like the host, Matt Gourley and his sense of humor, he's a prolific podcaster. Pistol Shrimps Radio was a play by play calling of LA area women's rec league basketball by him and his good buddy Mark McConville. That turned into a podcast (same feed) called Mall Walkin', where the review shopping malls and get kicked out of Macy's. And if you like them together, look into Super Ego. Matt will quickly turn into a rabbit hole of podcasts if you like the people he works with. I could drop another half dozen recommendations that are Matt Gourley adjacent.

I've been mainlining MATLAB videos all weekend as part of something I need to do for my MS and my overall takeaway is.......My industry (civil engineering) is lazy as poo poo. I generally knew this already but holy poo poo. The positive vibes are "There are a lot of cool things people are doing that are already modularized that you need 20 seconds, a cursory understanding of programming and you all are utilizing exactly none of them"* *Except you Norway, you are cool.

Can you give a few examples of the resources available? Are the videos purely Matlab videos or are you talking about videos about integrated pump curve libraries or something?

Give me to the morning. I'll debrief. Imagine I went from "I know how to do Macro" to this. e: I have 4 pages of notes to read up on from this loving thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9js5H2XfOE So my MS thesis involves taking my advisors PHD dissertation and optimizing it for AI. It was written in Matlab and we considered either Python or Matlab. So I've been learning both and holy poo poo is what I've learned.

Got around to watching new King of the Hill. It’s good, liked the Bobby plots the most.

They are really just MATLAB videos, but any time you roam outside of 2D linear analysis in civil engineering, you are talking about matrices and some form of simplified differential equations (Heat Equation,etc). MATLAB can handle the former (its literally built for handling matrices), and when coded properly, AI can do the convergence and boundary condition iterative bullshit for the latter. This is essentially my MS Thesis in one specific context. Just any situation where you need to compare (and or do math with) one matrix to another matrix. Excel is pretty poo poo about that unless you are doing VBA. Superelevation for roadways and Analysis by Matrix Methods (stiffness matrices) for structures specifically. I have a friend who deals with some things like this that told me the coding will take me an afternoon once I simplify the concept enough and understand all of the appropriate syntax. I've still got four months to submit my format review and I'm pretty on track mentally to haul rear end while work is slow over the holidays to be confident I can hit the "Apply for Graduation" button. And then I will be done with tests and academia forever. .......until someone makes me get an S.E. license. Which I am preparing for being told during my year end review. e: Additionally: -For hydrology, computing TR-55 combined curve numbers -Industrial engineering, any time you have to evaluate cost versus machine time versus people time etc -Mechanical engineering - Anytime you have to have to evaluate the heat equation To answer your original question, as are all things that swing over from material engineering of whatever kind to computer programming, the computer programmers have petabytes of data that tell you exactly what you need to do.
