Five-tined forks

Yesterday was a work day, from home because COVID-19. I posted some data requested by someone who read one of our papers, prepared to upgrade CUDA on the rest of the GPU machines, and went back to writing oracle inferences for show and tell scenarios. I created some soft alarms to make sure I eat on time, and that seemed to help a lot.

After work I went hunting for more disused power cables on the third floor. There once was a huge bag of them, but I think we must have got rid of it. I did find the charger for my hard-lost Olin laptop, so that’s one. I also found a surprise spare ergonomic keyboard. Bonus!

Dinner, crossword, DS9, snack, sleep. Long involved dreams of helping a small child get enrolled in elementary school, getting lost in thought on long walks, corrupt heavy construction companies, and magic ghost dogs helping solve old sad murders.

COVID-19 update: the first cases have been confirmed in Allegheny county, and we have the first CMU student in quarantine on campus after contact with a confirmed case on break. P and I plan to continue to avoid public spaces for the next week or so and ride on our existing food stores. Next grocery trip will probably be PenMac, since they’ve started a shop-for-you-and-bring-out-to-your-car service.
