About a week ago I wrote a blog about the books I got from the library to read this month. I started with You're The Only One I've Told by Dr Meera Shah , and it's been. Interesting? It hasn't been what I expected, and to be honest » Continue Reading
Went to the library today and checked out a few books for my July/August reading: You're The Only One I've Told: The Stories Behind Abortion by Dr Meera Shah I thought this looked like a really good read. Shah has served as the Chief Medical Officer of Planned Parenthood Hudson Peconic where s » Continue Reading
After some very serious consideration, I'm taking the original content of this post down. Since reopening the comments last night, I've gotten about a dozen, most of them falling back on nearly identical talking points. I found out earlier this afternoon that all of those commenters are coming from the same blog post where they seem to have all gathered.

so I've been trying some stuff out with the walrus operator lately and I found this to be a helpful little trick to combine all elements of a depth-1 nested list structure: lists = [['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd'], ['e', 'f']] combined, _ = (combined := list()), list(map(combined.extend, lists)) print(combined) >> ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'] This is obviously a really basic example, but if you wrap it u... » Continue Reading

This year I got back into reading more regularly. Not gonna lie, some weeks I didn't read at all and then some weeks I read like a feral animal digging into a pack of hamburger. I have no sense of organization and my time management skills are unimaginably bad, so this is the way I stutter through life. So, here's a list of the books I read, not in any particular order, with non-Amazon links where... » Continue Reading
I've been thinking about this all day since I saw it, mostly about how you would even go about finding a value that disproves the theorem. If you iterated through all the numbers looking for one that does » Continue Reading
For the last year, I've been sending in occasional attempts to win the New Yorker caption contest. So far, I have been unsuccessful and this is because they are a bunch of bourgeois fools without any sense of artistic integrity. Because they are physically incapable of appreciating true genius, I will be documenting the deserving entries they continue to ignore here. Rejected New Yorker Contest En... » Continue Reading
