Very arbitrarily, like most decisions in life, I decided to leave my #analog notebook behind while preparing for a three days trip. “I have barely used it in the past weeks” I thought, “I won't even notice it's not there” Guess what? In three days I had a lot of things on my mind.🧵

Have you ever had the feeling that animals do not read your paper? I feel they should, so they'd know HOW TO BEHAVE.

I will accept that Claude has a PhD level intelligence ONLY WHEN it will cite its sources all the time, without being asked! Of course I'm kidding, it has to learn how to cry as well.

I get more out of pushing an idea into existence than almost anything else. It might start with some version of "what if we tried this" before I've fully thought it through, then sent to someone (regret optional). What's the thing that does that for you?

Question: do I know anyone near Nantes who would be willing to pick up a dead gull-billed tern and its logger? L49 has sadly been killed near a road. I’d be very grateful for a picture and the logger and would of course reimburse postage.

In the morning, the covers are removed & washed, the floors cleaned of any guano. This practice has been in place since the mid-19th century. A similar practice is used in the Palace of Mafra's smaller library, built around the same time. The chiropteran sentries are efficient & inexpensive.

There's a message here, somewhere.
Extract from my notebook with a drawing showing two bars. The first says "Failure bar" and it's full at 100%. The second says "progress bar" and it's half full.

R-Ladies branded graphic with blue-to-purple gradient background. The heading reads "Our Values" in white. Six values are listed vertically, each with a blue accent dot: Diversity & Inclusivity (embracing all genders and backgrounds), Empowerment (resources, mentorship, and opportunity for all), Community (collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and support), Accessibility (making R learning open to everyone), Advocacy (championing underrepresented genders in tech), and Transparency (accountability, honesty, and fairness in everything).
