@mattl avoid any with bitter coatings (it’s a safety feature to avoid kids eating them). Apparently the coating can interfere with the electrical connection.

While Moorhead gets cold for my walk to work, #carrot gets topical.

Who thought last month that the Democratic control of Congress would outlast Twitter? #Twitpocalypse #ElonIsNotAGenius

My office Mac is having a bit of a problem with the fans on the video card. Sigh.
I know the solution is either doing maintenance on the fans or replacing them, it is just getting IT to actually do it. For now, my office computer growls at me. https://youtu.be/UpLiyriY7nE

My understanding is an #introduction is in order when joining Mastodon. I am a Physics and Astronomy Professor facing a transition (after 23 years of teaching) to becoming a CS Professor as my university tries to “right size” itself.
