Every paper I write should have Makers Mark as a co-author...

I visited the Smithsonian air and space museum while over from the UK a few years ago.
I had a short space of time available, and all I wanted to see was the SR-71 blackbird and the space shuttle.
That was the day I found out there were two air and space museums.
Still haven't seen either of them.
Yeah, all the parts are Renault branded. The car itself I believe is built on a Clio chassis.
This is me too. I'm in my late 30's, working a full time job in a bank while completing a full time degree, trying to maintain my top-of-my-class-grade while also trying to keep the rest of my life from falling apart, and genuinely thinking - I'm going to do my masters at the top university in my country because fuck it, why not.
I've already bought a knock off car - the Dacia jogger is just a Volvo XC90 at a 1/3rd of the cost.
I get the distinct impression that everyone bitching about the fees are people that have never had to develop for end users and maintain the fucking thing.
I probably do the same if not more work at home as I did in the office, but only "work" about 2/3 of the time.
I don't have a boss lecture me on blockchain for an hour because they were near my desk, I don't need to listen to Carla's story about her flat tyre, I don't need to get constantly distracted when I'm deep in an analysis hole because someone on maternity leave has walked in with their new baby.
The time spent caught up in boring distractions is used to put on some washing, set the roomba going, or put a pot roast in the oven freeing up more time to just chill out later on and I still get everything done.
Never mind the 2 hours a day of commuting time I get back.
I'm 37 and already broken.
My back is killing me, the sciatica makes sitting down hard. My ankle is fucked from too many injuries doing shit like tough mudder because when you're young you're invincible. Top that off with an immune disorder and asthma and it'll be a miracle if I make it to 50 with a good quality of life.
Sounds like the one I quit in 2021
Totally agree.. This person does a shit load of work building and maintaining an app, they sure as hell should get paid for it.
We let our cats in the garden supervised if they want but they're indoor cats otherwise. One will go out for a short time and come back in if we go in, and the other one has absolutely no interest in going out and would rather cosey up on my pillow.
They're both elderly but have been that way since they were kittens/rescued.
We got them harnesses so we could take them out and see stuff but they weren't all that into it.
We have puzzle games and plenty of toys for them. The oldest loves a puzzle and can out maneuver our dog at them, but the younger one has a single braincell and is as dumb as a box of rocks. She's happy just to sit to your lap and get pets.
