One of my cats has gone missing. He's microchipped, and I have the number. I can't figure out if there's an official central place to search for lost and found pets by chip number. There are lots of sites prompting me to create an account or something, but I can't figure out if these are really what I need to use.

Waiting room, San Jose Diridon station.
I can't see anyone in this picture, but the station actually gets pretty busy--but commuters just go straight to the tracks.
I should come back and get another version with some people in it. I guess if the Coast Starlight was running late, there'd be a bunch.

Took this back in October. I let a couple of rolls from my #kodakbrownie pile up before I got down to my fav lab.
This is the view out the rear car of the #Amtrak #CaliforniaZephy, passing through #Truckee, CA.

@skinnylatte how is this organized?

@ploum I have a sense that the worst thing to ever happen to the CS field is the perception that it's a way to get rich. Fewer people in the field are true nerdy souls. (And I see less and less dedication to coding as a craft).

@mekkaokereke @Alon I don't get the connection but I want a pupusa now.

@Alon @mekkaokereke I could never figure out how the Boring company was supposed to be useful. If you can make tunnels more efficiently, great, sell that to people who want tunnels, but the whole objective seemed to be to make single-lane car tunnels. They had this nutty proposal for car elevators to get in and out, but I can't see how the throughput would be more than a car a minute. So all that infrastructure to transport at best 60 cars an hour, which probably means 100 people an hour. Never mind the car-centric ass-holery of it--I just don't see how that's a business.
I think their whole claim to being able to build tunnels cheaper than anyone else was just based on making smaller tunnels, and not counting ventilation shafts, emergency exits, etc, as part of the cost.

@thomasfuchs Etymology is fun and interesting but doesn't really tell you what words mean.

For example, this thing I'm wearing on the the upper half of my body, which has sleeves and a picture of Snoopy on it, is not a skirt.

@deathkitten @Jaden2 True. I followed #dadjoke and my feed got way more amusing.

@Jaden2 Here's a post about something fun for ya: I'm making homebrew hard cider at my work. (After I took the picture I moved it *under* my desk).

@georgetakei If he actually gets locked up, I have a stash of fireworks ready to celebrate.
