  • Rhythm is as much a communicator as language.

    One can look at an object, look away, look back at it and the rhythm can dictate whether that's comic, tragic, neutral, interesting, disgusting, valuable...

    Being aware of the rhythm in which one presents something can make your intended message clearer.

    If one wanted to study it, one would take a class in Michael Chekov, Rudolph Laban, Kabuki or traditional mask theatre.

  • because you mentioned the kernel I was riffing off the Linux copypasta


    I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

    Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

    There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

  • we do one day in person in office a week. I need to meet with the COO, CTO and CFO for some RFQ of a new product thing. I literally need their physical presence for some documents etc. It has been delayed three weeks so far because none of them come to the in person office days lmao.

    4 of my 5 regular occurring meetings on this are virtual because they meet with out of state contractors, clients or similar. Also I'm the only one who eats lunch at 1 instead of 12, and I regularly have clashing meetings, so I am literally driving 2 hours a week to go to a different place to take my virtual meetings and eat lunch alone in a canteen instead of my kitchen
