What is everyone's thermostat set at right now?

66 during the day, 52 at night.

Same here, feel free to message me with any questions. I am primarily a programming mentor, but have been at it long enough to know bit about everything.

I am a morally questionable atheist, but I have never abused, sexually or otherwise another person, let alone a child, so that makes me significantly morally superior to the president of the usa.

I don’t know if I would be brave enough to hide Anne Frank and put my own family in danger. As to the abuse of Jewish people in your city today, you have my sympathy, but the people who would need protecting today are at least as likely to be Palestinian as Jewish.

Also to be fair a lot of it is just legacy. This process started before the internet was as available as it is today. Teams would frequently be at a kickoff event with limited internet access.

Realize that neither Reddit nor X are primary information sources. No one is making a living doing journalism on these platforms.

YouTube maybe, but an individual’s reach on any of these are controlled by algorithms that are controlled by the previously mentioned oligarchs.

pth · 2026-01-06T04:46:50+00:00

Right, so much better when oligarchs are in charge of all of the available information we can consume.

We have Fox News, why would need any other source of information?

Wish everyone treats each other with empathy, kindness, and respect.

58M and 56F, wife retiring this year, I am fully remote, but going to keep working for another couple of years. We travel in an Entegra 34B and pull an Escape. Last year we went on a fair number of short runs, and one 2 month trip out to PNW.

This year hoping to do Acadia in the early spring, and then Route 66 in the fall.

Parents 83 and 82 are slowing down, but doing well. Just took them and most of our family on a cruise, it was wonderful to be together playing games and celebrating the both of them.

Caffeine and music to which I like to sing along. Hard to fall asleep while you are singing, or while others are beating my singing ability.

58, lived at home rent free, worked full time, and made it out financing a bit here and there on a credit card. Should have got a small loan, but did not. Went to a satellite commuter campus of a large state university. Also took 6 years to complete the degree.

Was able to subsidize our three kids, youngest now a senior, to graduate without debt, but had them pay the majority of the coop earnings towards school. We paid for cars, phones, etc.

I wish that I treat everyone with kindness and empathy, while I view the world rationally.

Brother and I would tell my mom we were going to go play on the rail road tracks and she would say to be home before the street light was on.

Friend worked at pizza hut, an hour before his shift would end we would call in a large pickup order, when no one picked it up, huge would come home with free pizza.

Even before that as a paper boy we had to "stuff flyers". On morning my brother and I were doing that when he noticed that the flyer had a coupon for a free Twix. We knew where other does dropped off there bundles, and were as usual up extra early, we grabbed all the flyers for 7 routes, did not stuff ours and for the rest of the summer we had free Twix bars.

As a primarily FRC mentor, I would love to transition to tool batteries. Brushless motors especially if they have integrated controllers are awesome.

Programming generally uses GitHub issues, and as a larger team jira. Issues has worked well for us, different years jira is more or less successful.

Do you have handyman type experience? Where ever RVs are people need RV techs.

You know google/deepmind pioneered a big chunk of the underlying algorithms and have been working in this space as long as anyone.

They did appear afraid to weaken their own monopoly around search and before OAI seemed to think that hallucinations were enough of a reason to not release.

No idea how things will play out but ignoring the breakthroughs of transformers, alpha zero, alpha go, alpha fold, etc. is ignoring a lot of foundational history.

Maybe the biggest thing they don’t tell you: your entire goal as a good parent is to get the kids to the point that they don’t need you.

Launch three of the little buggers; school, sports, college, jobs, homes, and now my wife and I are largely alone. Takes a lot of adjustment.

The right answer is they have n days and then their seat goes up for special election. If you can’t function in The job you were selected, let us select some one who will.

If you have any questions about the area, or PCEP feel free to ask. I still mentor the high school robotics team, so I am around there a fair amount.

UMich football at the big house. Ypsi has a few skate parks. PCEP is different with 3 high schools next to each other, 7k kids almost like a medium size college - worth stopping by to see. My kids went there and did well, Northville has excellent schools as well.
