Ugh. It would be kind of hard to get my father-in-law to change to a new Financial Advisor, but I kind of want to fire his on the spot for emailing an unprotected PDF already filled in my wife and my address/phone/birthdays/DL#s - and asking us to add SSNs and some other info and email it back.
Look, I get that we want languages to be expressive and powerful and all that, but past a certain point I shouldn’t have to have done graduate work in group theory to be able to effectively use the language.
I just got a complaint about my #photography posts, which I concluded came from a troll, but perhaps I’m actually coming off in a way that rubs people the wrong way here.
The complaint was that by posting high resolution images and describing in detail the processes used to create them, I’m merely “showing off” in a way that isn’t useful to most people.
I indeed do rather niche photography, using relatively esoteric gear. I think some people are interested in process and enjoy the results.
@mattblaze I particularly found your explanation of how you adjusted the focal plane of a recent capture super interesting¹. Your gear is way out of my league, but that doesn’t make it less interesting. If they don’t find your posts interesting, they can unfollow you.
Appointment made for COVID, Flu, and second dose of the shingles vaccine. May regret doing them all at once, but I gave myself a buffer day after to recover if needed.
