Such a bummer when people lie for no reason.
Found out today that a client I previously ended our work with had lied to us about their plans and why they wanted to stop our engagement.
The truth wouldn’t have changed anything for us. We still would have parted ways on good terms and done our best to offboard. In fact, we would have been able to help them more by properly instructing people coming to take over.
So now that the lie came to light, long after the engagement ended, I have a bad taste in my mouth and no longer feel good about how things ended and or them as a past client.
I just wish they told the truth.

Kid: Dad!?! The (no longer maintained) software that school wants me to use is throwing a "Code C" error on the video we took in class (on a brand new iPhone). Can you help?
Me: I don't know who suggested you use this software. I don't know why. If the software company is telling you to pay for an upgrade, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career (in scientific software)

HOW TO PROVE IT, PART 7
proof by forward reference:
Reference is usually to a forthcoming paper of the author,
which is often not as forthcoming as at first.
proof by semantic shift:
Some of the standard but inconvenient definitions are changed
for the statement of the result.
proof by appeal to intuition:
Cloud-shaped drawings frequently help here.

Physio signed me off since I told her that the wrist is more or less back to normal now.
She still wants me to keep doing the exercises for some undefined amount of time. Will into the new year be enough? Dunno. Will do that at least.

The thing is, the actual Titanic took •hours• to sink; this one could take •years•. The question is how much damage it does on the way down, how much damage we can prevent, how much we can help it sink faster.

Life after death: How earthworms keep facilitating carbon capture
Earthworms don't stop shaping soil processes when they die. A new study shows they can still help store carbon in the soil, even after death. "This is quite surprising," says lead author Tullia Calogiuri. "Most of our knowledge about earthworms comes from their activity while alive, such as burrowing, feeding, and producing feces. Finding that they also play a role after death is exciting."

Flooded disused coalmines could be a significant source of energy and provide cheap heat to thousands of homes, a new report argues.
Mine water geothermal heat (MWGH) systems use the water in flooded coalmines,
which is warmed by natural processes,
to supply low-carbon heat.
Heat exchangers and pumps recover the heat,
which is distributed via district heating networks to homes and buildings,
providing low-cost, long-term, stable energy.

There's something cruel in how our culture treats in-between times.
We have words for achievement

The idea that you might be in a natural winter,
that you might be dormant in a way that's preparatory rather than pathological,
doesn't compute …
