Commanders TE Zach Ertz rooting for WR Terry McLaurin to get 'paid as much as he wants' https://www.nfl.com/news/commanders-te-zach-ertz-rooting-for-wr-terry-mclaurin-to-get-paid-as-much-as-he-wants

Got a new keyboard with a different layout... thought it would be a good idea. And yeah, I never used that number pad anyway... but damn, the change has slowed me down... give me a minute to develop some new muscle memory...

I went for a ride, and 5 miles in the chain sort of got "stuck"... it didn't come off, but I had to pedal backwards a few seconds and then forwards, and it seemed to be okay again...
But then it started shifting on its own as I kept riding. It's always been a poor shifter, sometimes it can be difficult to get it to change gears, and sometimes it changes gears on its own...

> Augustine had his own sort of "wager", although it was never phrased that way, where he basically believed in God the whole time, but lived a sinful life until he God older, and repented. He even had the great phrase "Lord, make me good, but not yet".

Refining Motion for Peak Performance: Identifying Optimal Gait Parameters for Energy-Efficient Quadrupedal Bounding
Energy efficiency is a critical factor in the performance and autonomy of quadrupedal robots. While previous research has focused on mechanical design and actuation improvements, the impact of gait parameters on energetics has been less explored. In this paper, we hypothesize that gait parameters, specifically duty factor, phase shift, and stride duration, are key determinants of energy consumption in quadrupedal locomotion. To test this hypothesis, we modeled the Unitree A1 quadrupedal robot a…
