Done Since 2021-10-17

I've been sleeping more this week; I think that's supposed to be good. N said she noticed an improvement in my mood, but I'm skeptical. Although, with a cat purring in my lap as I type this, it's hard to be too skeptical. Note that I've listed my mood as "fair" -- I don't seem to have used it much on DW, but there was a period when it was my standard answer to "how are you?" when I didn't really know.

Meanwhile, as of the end of Episode 5 of Appple's Foundation series, it's clear that people were right in saying that the series is unfilmable, and that Apple has stopped trying. I may watch one more episode (since #6 came out Friday and it's already queued up). Depends on whether I think my blood pressure will take it.

According to Verge, kids who grew up with search engines have trouble understanding the concept of files and directories. I find that rather disturbing. Professors started noticing the trend around 2017.

... and in more news of the stupid, Governor's PAC Releases Bizarre Ad Over 'Hacking' Scandal. You may remember from last week that said "hacking" consisted of pressing Ctrl-U. As the old adage goes, "it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt".
