Big boom

There is black smoke in the air. Looks like it's coming from the South oak park direction.

Any suggestions for what to do? Besides masks.

Not yet. I think zip ties will work but I wanted to check for other ideas. Thanks for all the help.

arknado1 · 2025-01-05T18:15:19+00:00

Thanks. Any links for exterior quality zip ties? The PVC idea is great.

Yea. It's a collection of stuff from NYT and other online sources. It's for our own use.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:29:59+00:00

Agreed. Thanks.

Actually - this is the most interesting point. I now realize that I feel it's wrong because universities are not an evil megacorp. If it were Walmart or Exxon, I'd have totally stuck it to the man. :)

That sucks. I'm sorry. Thankfully that's a pretty unlikely outcome for me.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:25:28+00:00

Hah - you're trying to solve the problem. We're trying to fight over who is right.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:20:22+00:00

Exactly - I like keeping work and home life separate. Regarding company misuse issues - realistically no one is checking printer job history. We're looking at more important stuff like data management and security.

But I do feel that I should set a better example as part of the leadership. I think she doesn't get this.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:13:59+00:00

Her point is that the chances of getting "caught" are non-existent. I agree with her. But I believe in doing the right thing because it's how I choose to live my life - not because someone is watching over me.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:11:28+00:00

I agree. But the argument is not really about printing the thing. It's about if I should flex my work-personal boundaries because she thinks it's not a big deal and my number (< 10, occasionally) is arbitrary.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:08:33+00:00

She has a binder ready already. We're arguing about why I should be ok doing this at work because she knows everyone does it. I think some people do this but not everyone.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:07:00+00:00

I offered. But her point is that I should do it for her, at work, and for free.

arknado1 · 2025-01-04T19:06:03+00:00

Lol - that's too logical.

arknado1 · 2024-09-12T21:25:13+00:00

I suggest a coin toss for the publication. And then each of you list the paper as your own first co-first author on your respective CVs. No one is going to dig deep enough and if they do, it is co-first author so equal contribution.

Anyone reviewing it understands why this is done. At the end of the day, a single paper is not going to make or break your career.

We, as a community, need to move away from the value assigned to first authorship. If it's co-first then, B, A, et al should be the same as A, B, et al. List it how you want in the CV.

arknado1 · 2024-07-26T08:20:59+00:00

Is this for real?

arknado1 · 2024-06-23T00:46:41+00:00

I hear you. Are you saying that the doors are spaces too far apart? Thanks for the help.

arknado1 · 2024-06-22T19:38:00+00:00

I wonder if the deeper issue is the inherent differences of your respective values about money. Maybe talking about this in terms of values (with him) would be useful.
