never played a Fallout game before, but curious to see what everyone is talking about since the Amazon show

signed up to Game Pass for a month to give Fallout 4 a try

a couple of hours in... not sure I'm getting it yet, but I'll give it a little longer

@dalelane I only got a few hours in. Base building just seems too much of a faff I didn't have time for, and exploring was slow and often ended blundering into a way under-leveled shootout I cmhad no chance of winning...
Maybe I gave up too soon?

The wallpaper in the office here is a list of patents - with the patent number, title, and inventors names.

I’ve been looking to see if I can spot where it repeats, but so far can’t find it!

@dalelane Presumably emulsioned walls say "This wall intentionally left blank"?

Finally got around to watching "Everything Everywhere All At Once" and inflicted it on Amy and Grace.

I loved it, but I perhaps didn't prepare them for how weird it was gonna be

@sldrant aww... I haven't seen that in years - that was an amazing movie

@dalelane same. There was also a netflix series following after it which was quite good, but also confusing as it gets with time travel

@Edent hope you make it this year! I remember only seeing you on a big screen last time 😒

@dalelane I'm going to quarantine beforehand 🀧

I finished a new feature on #MLforKids this week - adding an option for students to store their own training data, instead of on my servers.

I try and develop the site in the open, so here's another #devlog update on the thinking that went behind this feature.

Brussel sprouts on a burger. β€œChristmas” is no excuse ;-)

@dalelane had a Christmas pizza. Gravy base, turkey, stuffing, pigs in blankets, carrots and sprouts.
Would recommend

I have a new Wordle max streak - completed wordle for 122 consecutive days.

I think at this point, we can officially call it a habit

@dalelane same! Just passed 100. Hardest part is not forgetting on the days I'm in the office!

I found this story fascinating. The usage of AI in education is always interesting, but it's not the AI aspect that jumped out at me.

A math curriculum taught through playing the piano is a fascinating idea.

I love (and can totally believe) that the use of music can make measurable benefits to student outcomes in maths.

So few people come into the office on a Friday that Friday work has a very different vibe.

I think I kind of like it though... it's a quieter and maybe more focused end to the week.

@sldrant I worked in a mostly-remote working-from-home team last year, and I found it so isolating and depressing. Part of the reason I joined my current team was that almost all of them are in the office most days.
This might be the exception more than the norm nowadays though!

sldrant,
@sldrant@mastodon.social avatar

@dalelane Somewhere in between is nice. I find the office busy and noisy, and only go in once a week.
Some say the office is dead :

And I see the point. I'm certainly not going back to in-office every day

This looks intriguing - it's sort of like (and also from MIT), but reimagined for a world of mobile apps.

Dinner in a motor museum for the second time in six months… apparently eating near to old cars is a thing I do now πŸ€”

I love that I can check when the last time was without having to resort to the bird site.

If you haven’t tried tweetback, it’s worth a try

@dalelane nice, I’m currently using an alternative for my archive, but I shall have to check this out.

first day back in the office after a week away, which means a chance to check on my pigeons... they've grown up so much in a week!

The pigeon eggs on the ledge next to my desk have hatched! πŸͺΊ

It's very sweet - their necks aren't strong enough to hold up their heads... πŸ₯Ή

In London - drove G to her new uni house, with a (packed!) car load of her stuff. Strange feels! πŸ₯Ή
