The tortie is always right.

The traditional way to learn about Google services is from the shutdown announcement.

Good article as usual from Cory Doctorow. I was very surprised by the title, but reading what happened made more sense.

I had something similar happen while job hunting. I didn’t give away any useful info before I caught on, but it was a combo of two factors that caught me with my shields down:
• I was using my phone instead of my desktop, so it didn’t show the email address (just the person’s name)
• I had never heard of a recruiting scam before

I’m not sure, but I figure they’d have asked for my direct deposit info when I was “hired” and then use that to steal money.

Why isn’t it loading? All I can see is:

(though I was trying to avoid a circular definition)

Neurotypical just means you’re in the bulge of the bell curve of traits, so your traits are common. It doesn’t mean you’re normal, just average.

Even more unpopular: Both are a waste of time.

It’s a lot smaller than I thought. There’s all that water in the middle that I always thought was land.

When I was a teacher, I went from teaching English in a classroom with two windows to a computer lab with windowless walls on all four sides.

I only got to tell this joke like a dozen times.

I would tell the person I was talking to that I liked teaching technology, but I missed the windows in my old classroom because now I had the fewest windows in the school.

Then after a pause, I’d say: Actually, now that I think about it, I ended up with the most windows because I have thirty computers all running Windows 10. And that’s like 300 Windows if you do the math.

This is such an important message, I keep this on my phone:

this is a gaunt-minded answer

Is there a client or program that can continually scan and backup your account, so at least you have a copy?

I’d add reading (or listening) two books:

The Art Of Mindful Living by Thich Nhat Hanh
• Easy to digest, relaxing listen, to practice mindfulness.

Getting Things Done by David Allen
• Get all the things out of your head and into a trusted system.
