Critics of library pseudoscience rave: A kinder, wiser version of the void • Haunting and feels vaguely macabre • Does not represent the views of his employer

Some of the coolest people I know also have Twitter bots; the best I can do is be a Twitter bot myself.

Oh no it's puritan Halloween again.

Isn't it weird that we almost exclusively discuss the stock market as an agentless system? "Stocks surged, stocks fell" stocks can't do anything, individuals do things with them.

The bus stopped and a small moth fluttered past my field of view. The moment felt extremely liminal, but I'm not sure as why.

[Average Gopher @GopherHamaker]

Help, i just watched someone manually soft close a door that has a soft close mechanism.

One of the bus announcements fizzled so our bus just announced a cut-off "please" and nothing else. 😬

[Average Gopher @GopherHamaker]

We are getting air time on this bus gd.

I'm tired and i contain dairy.

Every academic fundraiser i think about the librarian who gave his estate to the library and that school bought an electronic stadium scoreboard with it.

Someone just said to have a blessed weekend and amen! However, my sister in Christ, it is Wednesday.

Amazon has announced they're phasing out their checkout-less grocery stores.

The "Just Walk Out" technology, which was labeled as automatic, was actually 1,000+ Indian employees monitoring you as you walked through the store.

Things that I noticed were on the subway: a cat
Things i noticed on this bus: a green plastic propellor, a smashed napkin, an entire bagel, the waxen string of a babybell cheese, two confused tourists who stood in the doors.

God it’s got to be terrible to realize you hate computers but you’re in too deep now because you’ve never actually used a real computer until college

[Victoria @AVocalistsRival]

I'm always shocked how our undergrad interns have only used iPads and phones and are completely confused by a PC. I thought it was a one-off the first time it happened, but it is very much a 'thing'

Ebscohost urls are becoming stable by default? I swore aloud.

Yes they need to end up where the cart is, but the carts whole purpose is to safely move books.

[Average Gopher @GopherHamaker]

Really need to remind myself to bring the carts TO books, not bring books to the cart.

Orinda is depressing AF. Blight comes home to the suburbs. Nail salons and empty stores as far as the eye can see.

The camradarie i feel on a bus on SF is like nowhere else. What beats laughing at the madness of transit?

Well, getting places on time. But my great grandparents left Europe so working with what I've got.
