Wanna hear my favorite knock knock joke? Great!

You start…

Fair enough; I have no idea. We’d like to think we are above our animal natures I’m sure.

Babies produce a pheromone to make them cuter so that you don’t huck them into the woods when they just won’t shut up.

That’s pretty clever.

The main characters are never aware of each other.

I subscribe to two podcast networks on patreon. I could listen for free, but I feel it’s worth paying for the several hours a month of entertainment I get from them.

Awesome. What do you farm?

At a lemonparty?

True enough.

It feels pretty pointless to write a first book now - everyone will assume I had an LLM do it for me.

Ali express (like Chinese Amazon, mostly direct from factories I think).

They are always “on sale”, but the prices are usually 30-50 bucks.

Get the r36S - the S is faster or something.

I’m barely competent at programming. What is the use case for Fortran, besides maintaining ancient code?

I love talking to strangers even though I’m pretty introverted. Having a little convo with someone I’ll never meet again is fun. It makes some people’s day to get an interaction and I like to make people happy.

I could totally believe that. Sounds like something I would do.

Did they ever explain why they skipped from 7 to 8 to 10?

I wish I had their brain type, I struggled in math to remember the formulas. I had a great time learning it, otherwise. Calculus was awesome, I had never considered measuring the rate of change of the rate of change and I got pretty excited. Set theory was great too.

That sounds like theThomas Jefferson bible - most of Jesus’s moral lessons without the supernatural hokum.

Hello, fellow odd brain!

I imagined a sort of physics textbook diagram, not real objects. There was no person, only an arrow indicating the applied force on the ball!

That looks awesome! Thank you for the link.
