Middle school Elaine who never got to beat Grim Fandango b/c of a game-killing bug finally got to beat it today. Awesome writing, fantastic music, iconic lines, DEEPLY frustrating gameplay, but I finally can check that one off the list XD

I am not a fan of the concept of the whole "there isn't a hot enough hell" thing. I don't care where they end up after they die. They need to face the consequences of their actions now.

TODAY'S COMIC: Biannual www.sheldoncomics.com/comic/biannu...
PANEL 1: SHELDON, a ten year old boy with large glasses, trots along a sidewalk wearing a backpack. Next to him is ARTHUR, a yellow duck, who runs next to him, looking angry. Behind them is green grass, a brown fence, and green bushes all set aside a sunny sky.
ARTHUR: “Biannual” makes no dang sense.

PANEL 2: Closer up on ARTHUR as he walks along the sidewalk.
ARTHUR: “Biweekly” means every two weeks. OR twice a week. “Bimonthly” means every two months. OR twice a month. So those two words are already day-drinking.

PANEL 3: Closer in on ARTHUR, as he continues to run against a blue background.
ARTHUR: But out of nowhere, “BIANNUAL” stands its ground and says “Nope! I ONLY mean twice a year”?

PANEL 4: SHELDON has stopped running and turns to reply to ARTHUR, who, eyes wide, yells in frustration.
SHELDON: It’s because there’s also the word biEnnial, which means—
ARTHUR: I AM GOING TO SCREAM BIWEEKLY. GUESS WHO OFTEN.

Software engineering could and should be done with the same care as any other type of engineering. This is a post in honor of Margaret Hamilton (and also a subtweet of all vibe-coders everywhere).
Screencap

"“I fought to bring the software legitimacy so that it — and those building it — would be given its due respect, and thus I began to use the term ‘software engineering’ to distinguish it from hardware and other kinds of engineering, yet treat each type of engineering as part of the overall systems engineering process,” Hamilton told El Pais in 2018. “When I first started using this phrase, it was considered to be quite amusing. It was an ongoing joke for a long time. They liked to kid me about my radical ideas. Software eventually and necessarily gained the same respect as any other discipline.”"

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon. Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

COMIC: Unnecessary Pedant!
TEXT: Look out, evil-doers! There’s a new superhero in town! UNNECESSARY PEDANT!

PANEL 1: GRAMP, an older bald man with a grey mustache, looks askance at ARTHUR, a yellow duck, wearing a black eye mask and black cape.
ARTHUR: CITIZEN! I noticed you used “Their” instead of “There” in your e-mail.
GRAMP: Oh, yeah, I noticed that typo JUST as I was hitting “send”…

PANEL 2: ARTHUR points his wing at a defensive GRAMP.
ARTHUR: “Their” is a possessive pronoun, you see.
GRAMP: No, I KNOW: it was just a typo.

PANEL 3: ARTHUR continues, making GRAMP angrier.
ARTHUR: Whereas you shoud’ve used “there” to indicate a place.
GRAMP: I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE IT WAS JUST A TYPO

PANEL 4: ARTHUR leaps in the air, showing off his red t-shirt with a “U P” under his cape. GRAMP, now super angry, holds his hands up to his mouth yelling after ARTHUR.
ARTHUR: Anyway, I can see that my correction has done a great service, here! Unnecessary Pedant, AWAY!
GRAMP: NO ONE WANTS THIS
