    On Math & Programming

    I’ve been told on multiple occasions by other programmers that “you don’t need math to program”. This is often said by people who actually learned math – or at the very least more math than I did. While I understand what they’re thinking (“the computer does the math for you”), they have a skillset that…

    Second pap smear ever today. New doctor is really nice and good at listening, was ready to stop at any time and actually knew what she was doing and had the tiny speculum. No crying or death levels of pain, and we got a good sample, so yay. No one judged me for my weight/gain,…

    It's okay 

      Having tried is still worth something. Don’t let the lack of immediate success get you down. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Having done, having tried, having made…is valuable in itself. Don’t judge it harshly, you’re still growing and progress only comes with time and effort.  You are a magical creature of wonder and…

    Yes because Destiny. We’ve been working on this fucking raid ALL FUCKING WEEK, with one rest day, so yeah, 4 pomes. Here you go. 1 hums of electricity running blue light of an LED screen comforting non-silence mistaken for quiet all of a sudden it’s gone true silence is eerie unsafe no steady whirrs to…

    The fortune in the cookie is: “in dreams and reality, nothing is impossible” I don’t think of six impossible things before breakfast. But if I did, waking up for breakfast would be one them.
