@futurebird It does mean I get to own twice as many socket wrenches as I would otherwise. There was a period of time back in the 70s when the country went metric… for about two months, even changed highway signs to km from miles in Washington state.Most new products are designed in metric in the US. Luckily we have computer aided design systems to keep track of it all. I’m resigned to being good at doing conversions in my head. Otherwise, I don’t think about it too much.

@futurebird That was 1975. We gave up on metric and went with Disco insteadhttps://youtu.be/fNFzfwLM72c?si=Pn2O0dlwqhaXFgL_

@futurebird A mathematician friend at Johns Hopkins told me he didn't read novels because they weren't true. He did produce a lot of math. (I think he was half serious about novels, he also was from Madagascar)

@futurebird so much of what we do in the digital realm is a Tibetan sand mandala, scattered into dust at the end of its use. The OG writers wrote stuff on rocks that last millennia.

@futurebird I like when you hear that sound they make in the early morning quiet. Even better if they are on the bed.

@futurebird When I was a kid we lived out west where there weren’t many trees. I remember as a Cub Scout project spray painting tumble weeds silver and gold.
