Google Calendar on iOS is…awful.
But Salesforce on iOS has to be the worst of them all. Genuinely embarrassing.
“You can’t be more than 83% sure in engineering. 60% is plausible deniability, 83% is 1 standard deviation.”
Inking up my fountain pens to do a practice closed-book case study tomorrow morning.
Not fun at all.
But the Waterman 52A makes it a little more bearable.
(Not that I'll have it with me in the actual exam — this pen doesn't leave home)
Getting quite annoyed with people who think it more efficient to ask than to look at the answer in front of them.
These evenings I spend researching now (and not reading anyone else's posts) are…strangely relaxing.
Emacs, LaTeX, and all that good stuff I don't use nearly enough of on a daily basis at work…but also the thinking. Really a lot of thinking.
I spent the better part of today doing research for the mock closed-book case study to be submitted in a week. Basically prepping a rather large annotated bibliography to study like a textbook.
And I actually felt…content. Some actual thinking, for the first time in ages. Such a nice change from being in the office.
Got dragged into helping set up a whisky tasting.
Ended up having many, many glasses of some very decent whisky. Glenfarclas 25, Ardbeg Uigeadail, Ichiro’s Malt Mizunara Wood Reserve…
Now rather late for dinner with friends.
@matigo Heh.
I actually have it from colleagues that, if he gets any more responsibility/authority, they will resign.
@matigo Yep.
Unfortunately, with this guy, it's not even a matter of intern/non-intern: pretty much every other email he sends has "ASAP" in the subject.
He loves getting information and is obsesed with tracking everything (on a big-data level), but has very little understanding of how to process the data that he requests.
So he's always 2 steps behind on the current situation, and gets annoyed when I get annoyed about having to "explain" something in person (rather, recite the email I sent a week ago).
