When Family Comes First - Hanging Out with Mom, Dad, Sis, and all
Stan Stewart - @muz4now

Traveling through New England, a motorist stopped for gas in a tiny village.
"What's this place called?" he asked the station attendant.
"All depends," the native drawled. "Do you mean by them that has
to live in this dad-blamed, moth-eaten, dust-covered, one-hoss dump, or
by them that's merely enjoying its quaint and picturesque rustic charms
for a short spell?"

We have a plumber in. He came out to investigate our blocked sink in which my mother had a tweeny fitted years ago. It's died, no-one uses it anyway and Mum's in a care home, so it's come out and been replaced with a reg'lar plughole. While he's here Dad's got him to fix the downstairs loo and now somehow we're having a new shower fitted in our (ie not Dad's) bathroom. Blimey.

This is husband's and my first fathers day without any of our father figures still living.
Husband's father died last September. My grandfather, who with my grandmother raised me, died years ago. As did my father.
So, my father in law became my "Dad" too and for many decades he was only one we could call on fathers day.
It will be sad and strange not making the video call to him today. He was a darling man, and although his last few years were somewhat blu…

Was in Indianapolis for the weekend for my stepdad’s 90th(!) birthday party. He told us the story of being 6 years old, his family listening to organ music (out of Chicago! 🤷‍♂️) on the radio on a Sunday, when the news of Pearl Harbor broke. Remembers the day electricity came to their farm and how he was supposed to keep it from his dad as a surprise, but his poker face was not up to the challenge.

Step-DAD: Semi-Amortized Policy-Based Bayesian Experimental Design
We develop a semi-amortized, policy-based, approach to Bayesian experimental design (BED) called Stepwise Deep Adaptive Design (Step-DAD). Like existing, fully amortized, policy-based BED approaches, Step-DAD trains a design policy upfront before the experiment. However, rather than keeping this policy fixed, Step-DAD periodically updates it as data is gathered, refining it to the particular experimental instance. This test-time adaptation improves both the flexibility and the robustness of the…

Unfortunately, my Switch 2 gaming time has been a bit limited because of two things: school holidays necessitating multiple dad-taxi rides for children around the area; and Edward borrowing my console to play Donkey Kong Bananza at every moment.

Kennedy’s daughter, Kick, revealed in a 2012 interview that her dad once beheaded a dead whale and tied its head to the roof of their family minivan before embarking on a five-hour drive. “Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car and it was the rankest thing on the planet,” she told Town and Country.

That’s a really hard problem, and not one that will be solved in my ad hoc Saturday posts (or in my replies). I have no answers. I do however have one model to study, which is this org my dad helped found:
https://www.wildernessalliance.org
They help people set up local wilderness stewardship volunteer groups. (There’s a wilderness area near you! You want to help take care of it! How do you do that? What is actually helpful?? What are models and best practices??? Where do you even start????)

I discovered Ozzy via radio (and my dad had the first Sabbath record) but my wife discovered Ozzy in a different way. When she was younger, she was searching for 'Crazy' by Britney, but 'Crazy Train' came up, and she was like, 'what's this', and listened to it. She liked it, made it the custom ringtone for her mom's phone number, and kept it as that (it still is). 😂 She later heard the early Sabbath stuff and loved it, of course.

Dad's job: hauling stuff when the daughter is leaving home. The second one has now left, and another will follow in a few years.

When I was little, I felt there was something massive and cosmic about the Hampster Dance song, like a hymn still sung centuries later, like the seasonal chants of an uncontacted tribe. My first exposure to it was its use in the Scratch platformer series "Cube World", this game where important characters go to space and tragically die, this game that no longer functions due to all the updates since Scratch 1.4.

As of today I have a decade worth of Dad Experience! He was one tiny guy just… yesterday??!?!??! How did that happen??! 🙃

Damn these old diodes are pretty; inherited from my dad.
The top one is a Mullard OA10 which is apparently mid 60's.
The very very pretty bottom one I think is a GEC GEX00; a wire contact germanium - look close! It's early 50's I believe.

My dad had a stem cell transplant last year (he's doing great!) and the 2 most interesting things about it are that his blood type changed from A- to O and that his fingerprints changed.
Never would have thought those things were possible.

There will come a day when my dad passes away, and eventually, a day when we all do. That thought makes me sad, but I realize there’s no use worrying about the future. Instead, I want to focus on living fully in the present moment.

Transient Stability-Driven Planning for the Optimal Sizing of Resilient AC/DC Hybrid Microgrids
This paper proposes a transient stability-driven planning framework for the optimal sizing problem of resilient AC/DC hybrid microgrids (HMGs) under different types of contingencies, capturing frequency and voltage stability requirements as well as the frequency-voltage coupling dynamics of AC/DC interlinking converters (ICs). The planning model is formulated into a defender-attacker-defender (DAD) architecture, which can be further merged into two levels, i.e., upper-level and low-level proble…

Another failure of the Labour government.

My dad is starting a new chapter of life today, in Spain! He has only visited twice in 70 years since he emigrated to Canada. But this time, he’s got his citizenship back. So it’s really like he’s coming home.

It is a strange kind of irony to grow up with divorced parents and discover that the two sides of my family could not be more different. My mom is voting for fascists, and it shows in the way she tries to dictate every part of me, how I should look, how my hair should be, and the choices I never wanted to make but was pushed toward. Her world feels like control, a constant pressure to fit into something I do not belong to.

My beautiful 6/yo son just came up to me and showed me this INCREDIBLE drawing of our hometown he created with the marker pack his dad bought him for school 🥹 What should I do as his mother to support his God-given gift?

I'm wondering if a dog would be a good idea when Mum's gone, partly as company for Dad but also because we would have capacity. I love this guy (should read his bio - he's perfect) and at least he's not called Max unlike half the other dogs available. That would cause big confusion in our house.

The average undergrad tuition fee in the 1974/75 academic year in Canada, across all disciplines, was $547 ($3445 adjusted to 2025)
Fees 50 years later in 2024/25 were $7360 ($7496 adjusted)
That is more than double. 117%.
And I *know* from personal experience this is a low ball average. If I could find a breakdown by discipline or by length of study for today, some would be even more obscene.
What has changed? Any occupation outside a minimum wage paying job demands a 2-4yr undergraduate diploma or degree, if not more.
Think about the 1970s and how common it was for people to get good paying jobs, leading to careers, without even high school education. Our free education stops with high school.
My family is a good example.
Mom and Step Dad: teacher college/degree. One got a Masters mid career.
Dad: didn’t complete HS
Father in law: didn’t complete HS
Mother in law: completed HS mid-career
Leadership positions and full careers demand a Masters or PhD requiring 5-10 years of study after HS!
Add in the cost of food and housing and the massive cuts happening at all colleges and universities because of the loss of international student tuition and I am going to go out on a limb and say our students today are going to pay double the price for a far worse experience than possibly any time since the Second World War.
Public education should be free.
Food and Housing should be controlled.
If the only thing government cares about is the economy, then they are setting us up for failure, and have been for decades.
(Don’t get me started on the kinds of “values” Canadian governments demonstrate when International student tuitions are 5x more than domestic students, let alone the inherent revenue risk in that funding strategy that has now come home to roost)
