Cool and humid again, possibly clear. We started yesterday with misty drizzle, and had overcast and occasional localized misty drizzle all day. I did see the sun in various places around town.
I actually got a few of the things done that I needed to get done.
Now to get a whole lot more of them done!
Today should be pretty much like yesterday, except for the trip to Conroe. And I might spend a bit more effort at home, or doing some modeling on the computer.
For the editorial content I might usually put here, see my last comment last night.

If anyone is willing to visit an annoying forum try arstechnica. Lot of liberal clueless idiots. Most have never had a real job and still live with their parents. Experts in their own mind while clearly on the far left side of the bell curve. Any dissenting comment is quickly downvoted and the poster chastised.
@NaN – I strongly suspect that I beat you in some real life situation so you’re here lobbing shots from behind the anonymity of a VPN account. That really isn’t a great use of this forum either, and you’ll never find satisfaction this way.

One of our interview white board situations is out there – write strcpy() from function prototype.
Everyone gets one minor detail wrong writing strcpy() so part of the test is to have the candidate go back and correct the problem unassisted once told of an issue existing.
Amazon subjects candidates to HackerRank problems, which I’ve done twice in the last few years without success. I view testing via that site as a way of enforcing a subtle age discrimination.

Bob drifted from astronomy talk in later years which was probably a sign of something serious in retrospect.
I’m not big into astronomy, but I learned a lot from things posted here and got inspired to teach myself celestial navigation.
I have both of Bob’s astronomy books from back when my son asked for a telescope one Christmas and I thought he would get enthused about the subject. Sadly, nothing enthuses my kids beyond anime/manga and Nintendo, but I guess that’s most kids these days.
This right here is why we need to pare down goobermint. With a chainsaw:

My son has this telescope: https://www.celestron.com/products/nexstar-6se-computerized-telescope
He was pretty big into astronomy during middle school, but interest waned in high school. He hasn’t had it out in almost 2 years. I do have the auto-align addition for it. I’ll probably put it on and try it out this spring. I don’t have a great interest in trying to find hundreds of objects in the sky, but it is nice to break out the scope every now and then and take a look.
In other news, my son (senior in HS) has switched his upcoming college major from Civil Engineering to Mechanical. I think he will do well with that choice. I am amazed at how much the colleges try to get get money from you. Early college, both online right now and during the summer, on campus during the summer, and other “team building” mini camps. All for a fee, of course. I’m of the mindset that he should just enjoy his last truly stress free summer. He will have enough to handle once he gets there this fall, err, late summer.
That was quick…

Thank you Nick, and thanks to Barbara for allowing us to be here. I enjoyed this site when RBT was writing it, and I enjoy it now. I do see it as a force for good. I get insights here that are not available elsewhere. Some of the regular commenters, and the troll, are perhaps a bit one-track in their interests, but they share insights into those topics that I would otherwise not hear.
Please keep it up!
My oldest doe rabbit was due this weekend, no kits. Lots of nest building activity but nada. It may be time to retire her. She’s a good natured beast so I may place her instead of eating her.
Six kits are big enough to be processed. They were born January 20. I’ve got another seven (eight?) that need to be moved out of mamas cage so she can be rebred. If I retire my oldest doe I’ll hang onto one of the January youngsters to replace her.
My buck is ill. Sneezing nasty thick yellow snot. He’s on antibiotics and feeling much better. I should consider having a back up buck though I hate sacrificing the cage space when my rabbitry is only six cages. Bucks spend most of their time eating. They “work” a few minutes a month.
Work is scheduled Monday to replace our Triangle Tube combo unit with an IBC SFC-199
Quote for identical work came in about half the other quotes. We investigated carefully because usually a quote that different means nothing good. We have received nothing but good reviews, no complaints to be found, and explanation for the difference is low overhead (no $10 million building) and they’re employee owned. Same 16 guy crew for 6+ years and company has been around much longer than that. Plus the listed business owner is a gun guy which, right or wrong, instantly makes me like and trust him.
I‘ve got Bob’s astronomy hacks book and have been keeping my eyes open for a telescope. Our back deck at the new place is well situated for examining the night sky. I was a kid when Halley’s comet came thru. Had a telescope, lived rural with little light pollution. I camped in the hills to watch Halley on at least one occasion. It’s a bit blurry in my memory now but it was good. I wonder if I’ll be alive when it comes thru again. Maybe.
Our fridge may need to be replaced. The freezer is periodically making bad noises. Came with the house. Difficult cavity to fit a modern fridge, abuts the kitchen sink and without an overhaul virtually impossible to fit anything wider than 28”. I need to carve out time to read up and see if we would be better off repairing than replacing, so we can push it down the road to when we do overhaul the kitchen. Pondering.
Had a bit of an event with the chickens and neighbor dogs. Start to finish 60 seconds, feathers lost and ten year old in hysterics, and an hour to find all the hens. Mesh electric fence will be here next week. Installing a chain link in front yard is not on the schedule this summer. The electric will provide some protection. My fault, I let them out for relief from the mud. A lesson I need to relearn every few years. No harm, no fowl.
I am sitting in the west Houston M. D. Anderson Cancer Center wearing a government issued mask. And I had to wash my hands with government issued hand cleaner upon entering. The wife is undergoing a routine procedure today and I am her Uber.
I ordered some “Rayovac Size 312 Extra Advanced Mercury Free Hearing Aid Batteries (80 Batteries) for $22.25. Amazon. .278¢ each.
A pack of 16 at the local grocery store is around $10.50. 65¢ each.
Confusing a heck as there are several package styles. So I went for the almost lowest price. Buying 120 seemed a bit much to save 2¢.
That’s my fun for the day. I have the patience to compare, the user of the batteries does not and actually gets quite cranky about it. 🙂
I see CNN+ will be shut down the end of April. That lasted a while… 🙄
Surely that can’t be correct. You mean, “No harm, fowl. Harm, no fowl.”

Congrats, he just upped his annual income by 20%.
I am Mechanical Engineering by way of TAMU. I started Chemical Engineering but switched in the middle of my sophomore year. I hated Organic Chemistry with a passion since it was so binge and purge. I still graduated in four years though by going one summer and sacrificing my GPA by taking 18 hours per semester. Graduated when I was 21.
I liked statics and dynamics but I LOVE thermodynamics. I would have paid to take the ME thermo classes, wait I did pay. I met some people that were smarter than me but thermo was the great equalizer. I hated ME Design with a passion.
Now I am sitting in the cafeteria with my government issued mask off drinking coffee. I am hoping the coffee will last three hours.

Anyone who touches C code daily could pass the test in the last iteration I saw. I strongly suspect it is in the wild on sites like Glassdoor.
I am going to write my own Fortran to C++ converter after I finish my Intel Fortran port and the 64 bit port. After all, I wrote my own Smalltalk to C++ converter twenty years ago that handled 80% of the conversion. The biggest problem will be converting the beginning index of Fortran arrays from one to zero. That will be a freaking disaster. I do have the source code to the unix F77 to C converter so that should help.
I ported our calculation engine Fortran code from 36 bit (Univac) to 60 bit (CDC 7600) back in 1978. It was easy compared to the guy who was porting to the 32 bit IBM 370. Porting down in precision is always hard.
To give you an idea of the relative precision for floating point here is my experience:
32 bit = 2 ppm (parts per million)
36 bit = 1 ppm
60 bit = less than 1 ppb (parts per billion)
64 bit = less than 1 ppt (parts per trillion)
I am trying to move our software from 1 ppm to 1 ppb. It is already 1 ppt in several areas. Some of the open source people are trying to move to ppq (parts per quadrillion) to solve the critical point uncertainty problem. We solved that problem another way. We cheated.
My latest site just went live today. It’s mainly for authors sharing book excerpts without worrying about copy theft of their excerpts. Book excerpts are PDF files, but with a customized PDF reader that doesn’t allow any clicking on the reading page. So you can’t highlight, copy, print, whatever the PDF file. Just scroll up and down, and click the previous/next page buttons.
I had the idea on one day, registered the domain name the next day, then wrote the entire site in two weeks. Has registered users and a couple of tables in one database. Stores the PDF files with a GUID type name, and a short URL to use as the book excerpt URL.
I think there might be some minor responsive issues of some site pages on smaller screens; some final testing and tweaking of that in the next couple days. And then marketing it (the hardest part for me).
The site is at https://www.bktry.com .
On another topic – there is some discussion here at home on moving to northern CA from here in WA. Main purpose is to be closer to the grandkids (ages 3-11). And to have a single-story house – the wife is starting to have difficulties going upstairs to her craft room.
Lots of equity in the current house. Potential new places in the area are at about the same selling price as mine – we’re looking at the $650-750K range. Downside is the current mortgage rates. We started thinking about moving several months ago, when the mortgage rates were around 2-3%. It’s still a seller’s market here (and at the new location). Homes in my area sell within 2 weeks; often less than a week.
No decision yet. I’m OK with the new location in CA; I can handle the politics there. The staging/decluttering and moving part would be a big effort, although getting outside help with all that is an option.
The Florida legislature voted to end Disney’s self-governing special district in Florida. Though, from what I gather it’s mostly symbolic. Florida law requires that a majority of residents of a special district vote to end the special district (in this case that would be… Disney corporate?). The legislature doesn’t have that power. So, it likely won’t hold up in the courts. If they really wanted to do it they should have piggy-backed it onto a change in the law allowing a simple majority of the legislature to terminate special districts. We’ll see…

How do the property taxes and income taxes compare ?
Have I mentioned that the institutional toilet paper in places like this sucks ?
And I wonder where they get their masks ? The mask actually fits me. The cheapo masks that I buy at HEB are a size too small for me.
Property tax for comparable home about 1K more in CA. No income tax in WA, there is one in CA. Sales tax slightly higher in WA.
Not a significant difference between the two in aggregate. Utilities might be cheaper in WA.
But, advantage is closer to the grandkids. Which is a consideration.
I do a lot of documentation for Worst Case Circuit Analysis by copying data out of PDF datasheets for the report. Need the artifact, right? Anyway some companies set the PDFs for no copy thinking that will protect their valuable data and intellectual property (that is released on a publicly available datasheet. Lawyers are weird).
Windows Snipping tool works better than the PDF copy tool anyway.
Edit: I do realize that makes it harder to get a text copy. A little.

We moved to Carrollton, TX in 1985. The inlaws moved to Carrollton in 1985. We moved back to Sugar Land in 1990. My parents started moving from Sugar Land to Port Lavaca in 1986 and finished in 1991.
Nvidia and the Department of Energy were working on a Fortran to LLVM IM compiler when I left grad school in 2017. I don’t know where that went. It is a critical problem for nuclear weapons reliability that a compiler/converter doesn’t exist.
My MIL followed us out of state in 2009 and back again in 2013. There was just no escaping her. lol At the time, we were sort of looking forward to living away from relatives for a bit and having some space. Oh well…
@RickH
I grew up in Northern California, about an hour north of San Francisco.
I left in 1993, largely because the traffic and housing and wages were impossible. I’ve got a few friends left down there. The taxes and fire and traffic are very difficult. They recently moved farther north to be near her folks. I hope it will be better for them.
Basics to investigate are water, electricity, and fire. None of these are on good ground anywhere in California. The taxes can be brutal. And their gun laws are wretched.
It is a beautiful state with many problems, many self inflicted.
A lot of parties in WA State want an income tax, especially the cities. It wouldn’t surprise me if they got one in the next decade even if it was through a court decision like Seattle tried to get a few years ago.
@Jenny – looking in the Roseville area. My first 65 years of my life were in that general area. So aware of problems and weather.
Traffic not a big problem, as I am retired. Spent about 28 years commuting from Roseville area to downtown Sacramento. But not an issue now.
Wildland fire not an issue – it’s a residential area surrounded by other residential areas. So utility stability also OK. (Here in my area of WA, there are 3-6 electrical outages per year, but I have those covered by a generator with a bypass switch to vital circuits.
Taxes and other things I can deal with, even though not optimal. Biggest issue – other than the effort of the move – is the higher mortgage rates. I’m probably 6 months past the optimal for that. But could handle it, I think.
DeSantis sent a message even if the dissolution is overturned in the courts.
Plus the real point of the special session is to redraw the Congressional districts again, and the fuss about Reedy Creek took the spotlight off of that effort.
Florida still has Old Sparky, the state’s electric chair – and I’m not kidding about the name — ready to go for any prisoner who opts for that over lethal injection.
It is the same chair that juiced Ted Bundy.
I oppose the state-imposed death penalty, as I’ve mentioned. Until police, prosecutors, and judges face the death penalty themselves for tampering with evidence, concealing evidence, or otherwise railroading the defendants, I don’t trust any government enough to allow them to kill anyone.
Agreed. I can be a pretty callous asshole at times, but I have a real problem with governments executing their own citizens for any reason. I don’t care for a modern judicial system that’s empowered to take lives. YMMV. It’s amazing how many people don’t trust the government to spend their money correctly, but do trust it to decide whom to execute.
Thank you for that! I’d have missed it without knowing. Big Lots sent met a 20% off coupon, so I’ll be able to combine the two for some big savings on batteries amd maybe a few other things.
Prayers that all is well with your wife! How is your mom doing?
@ Lynn: I started the university in Chemical Engineering and finished with a BS in that. Then 45 years in aerospace doing Fluid Mechanics, Thermal Analysis and Thermodynamics and loved it all. I understand how you feel.
@ Chad: I would rather have such as the Manson Family be executed than taxing me for 50+ years for their incarceration.
@ RickH: I have been very lucky, my grandchildren, now 19 and 21, have lived within 12 miles of us. When they were preteens, we loved having them stay over night with us.
re: capital punishment
One of those nuanced positions is required here.
There are definitely people who needed killin’.
There is no way to trust law enforcement or the judicial system any longer in America. Even here in Texas. Lying, cheating, making up evidence, even making up crimes is rampant, especially against White American natives who are patriotic and mostly want to be left alone. Bad enough for local and state law enforcement; worse when the Feds are involved.
As a person who is conservative, for some definition of conservative, I can only view this punishment as being aimed at me, personally. If not now, eventually, when they redefine “insurrection” to mean “anti-communist”.
I had the weirdest dream last night. For some reason, I was in South Africa, near JoTown. Doing what was a mystery. Ok, job done and we’re going to Munich. Which is cool. Souvenir t-shirts, yo!
Fell asleep on the plane and yeah, no Munich. We’re in Seattle. And somehow everyone knew my name. And here comes Bill Gates. Who knew my name.
This is when I woke up. Just too weird to not wake up.
Up to pee after that. Pet Penny both directions. Leave Buddy alone. Half an hour later Buddy hopped up onto the bed. Yeah, 4am or so, the dogs get cold. Except…. he walked up, gave me a wet nose on the face, like Hi!, and turned around and went back to his bed. That’s a new thing.
Anyway.
I have cats having kittens. One had kits under the house and one kit, a very pretty calico, crawled out from under the house. No mama cat would claim it. Kit held to various mama cats knew what to do. But.
So after almost two days I looked around for a patch of kittens somewhere. Nothing under the lumber pile in the boat shed or any of the usual places. Kit is getting real skinny looking and not meowing much anymore.
Drown it? Or put it in the freezer? Freezer. I feel like shit but what else? Let it just stave to death?
@rick, one thing you might not have considered with the tax situation is that for your current $750K house you are probably paying taxes on some much lower amount, with whatever your state calls the homestead exemption. In Cali, you’ll be paying tax on the entire $750K value of the house.
Cali also has their hand in your pocket every time you turn around. Car registration? Based on value of vehicle, not a flat rate for plates.
Income tax- when I was there, it was 9% of my Federal tax.
Franchise tax board will come after pennies with lawyers if you do any work at all.
And the big kicker, once you get money in Cali, they think they are entitled to tax you ever after, even if you move out of state again. May not apply in your case but it’s a screw you for a lot of people.
My gut is that if you think it’s a wash, either your current .gov expenses are a lot higher than I imagined, or you are missing something…

@lynn, I hope everything comes out boringly normal.
Things are never boringly normal in my life. The wife had ten polyps in her large intestine. One was so large that they had to pin the walls of her intestine with a metal clip. The metal is suppose to come loose when it heals and pass out normally.
Then she got thoroughly sick in the recovery room. They gave Phenergan and a new drug to get rid of the nausea. Then they gave her a motion sickness patch to help with the dizziness. After two hours, we got to leave. I then stopped by Chikfila and fed her for the first time in two days.
She goes back in three years. It had been seven years this time. The surgeon said do not go long again.
She started off the morning with throwing up and a bad fall. That was sucky.

Wife had knee replacement surgery yesterday. Procedure went well, elapsed time for the surgery was one hour, 15 minutes. New joint glued in place with surgical cement, no screws. Spinal plus sedation, no need for general anesthesia, less risk for the patient and less time in recovery. Had to arrive three hours before surgery, 90 minutes in the OR, 90 minutes in recovery, physical therapist shows up, “Let’s see if you can walk with the walker down the hall to the bathroom, pee and walk back to the bed.” Successful, yup, okay, discharged. Now comes the fun part, rehab and PT. First PT session is tomorrow. Surgeon said knee is the most painful joint replacement in the human body. Last week the wife said “I’m tough, I can manage the pain without the Oxy.” Last night it was “Where’s the damn bottle of Oxy!!” Wife asked the surgeon for the old knee in a glass jar of formaldyhide, He seemed to think she was kidding but she was serious. We’ll find out at her follow-up appointment in a few weeks.
Prayers that all is well with your wife! How is your mom doing?
Mom is doing minutely better. She can stand up and walk a couple of steps with a walker, maybe ten. She goes to church with Dad now when she feels good. Not many other places though.

I concur. I am 9 months post-op and still have pain. Low level, but still there. I have been told it takes a year to full recover. The outside of the knee has no sense of pain due to a nerve that has to be severed. I was provided a nerve block in my thigh, then completely put under. One night in the hospital.
PT can be rough, but do it. Don’t overdue activity. I was a month out, went to a football game to take pictures. That walking up and down the sidelines was too much and I suffered. I only did the first half and it was still too much. Approach, and slightly exceed the limits. Too much activity is not good.
I used a walker for a week, then a cane for three weeks. Ice machine helps with swelling. Such swelling still apparent on my knee. Has gone down considerably, but still noticeable.
I hope your wife does well. Positive Mental Attitude.

The pathology report came back clean?
I wonder how big they have to be to pin the intestine with a metal clip. I had one the size of a golf ball removed in February along with a 20 mm little brother and a half dozen smaller siblings of 10 mm and less. No clips.
Which reminds me — if you are overdue for a colonoscopy, do it now while civilization is still advanced enough that you won’t remember the experience. I received the same drugs that killed Michael Jackson but administered by a much more competent health care professional.
And get it done before they really are using those Hecho en China colonoscopy kits sold on EBay.

The pathology report will be back in a week or so. He thinks they will all be benign.
The big polyp was the size of 1/3rd of the wall (large !). The surgeon said it was “weeping” so he pinned it with metal clip. Obviously he could not suture the area.
I had my second colonoscopy last year. I was clean again so I am on another ten year countdown. I guess my 2031 colonoscopy will be with a Hecho en China kit.
Wow, a golf ball is 1.68 inches (42.67 mm). How in the world did you pass anything through your large intestine ?
And get it done before they really are using those Hecho en China colonoscopy kits sold on EBay.
Do you use the colonoscopy kit on yourself ?
Do you remove the polyps yourself ?
