Yurii Hnatkevych has been a nationalist since he was a child. He used to dream that #Ukraine would become independent from the Soviet Union, but he never thought it would actually happen.

He especially did not believe that he would vote for it himself as a member of parliament.

β€œI didn't believe it. I'm honestly telling you. None of the deputies believed that they would vote for the Declaration of Independence, and then for Independence itself," he told The #Counteroffensive.

Me, earlier this week:
I really need to go outside and take a walk, but I'm in a meeting with the customer, talking about solder terminations on a populated PCB, and I'm the subject matter expert, so they'd notice if I slipped out.

But if they ask me to explain one more time about the difference between cold solder and disturbed solder, I think I'm going to scream.

I gave up over 83 million followers on Twitter to be on Mastodon full time. Yes, as I'm sure many of you have guessed by now, I am Lady Gaga.

Stochastic terrorism is "the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted." Donald Trump has been using social media to blast prosecutors, judges, and witnesses, and his followers have answered with calls for violence. If the ex-president is a stochastic terrorist, what should we do in response? thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p

In many ways, Star Trek was ahead of its time, like in this episode, where they warn about the dangers of Data mining

I'm lucky in that I was able to change at least a few things, by calling a meeting and starting out "We're in violation of contract because this new thing..."

People pay attention then, and they stop arguing.

I'm running into:
A task I've done a lot before, and I'm really good at it, but someone else changed things. What I used to do doesn't work anymore, and what I now have to do doesn't make sense. And there are parts of it I can't do - no access - so I have to rely on other people, and their ability to get it right.

I'm just about climbing the walls with frustration.

@JeremyMallin

Maybe? I do. If something interests me, I want to know everything I can about it. Sometimes I drive people nuts with it.
