Mysteriously surly
Yesterday P helped pin the other bust dart and side seam. At work I figured
out how to log what database queries were being run, and it turns out using
ORM objects was generating a huge pile of extra individual queries. I
stopped that, and query time dropped to 0.04 seconds. Nice. I went to a
meeting with F and her new summer intern M, whose project will be to
integrate an external neural prolog / soft unification system (sPyrolog)
with F’s common-sense reasoning module.
It was gorgeous outside and the next shuttle wasn’t for 45 minutes so I
walked home through the park. 🍃P met me at the trail exit for the final
leg. My speed is pretty slow, so the shuttle passed us on Schenley Drive,
but that’s fine.
Dinner, crossword, and then we spent a little bit organizing some house
maintenance work that’s growing overdue and figuring out what we have the
budget for this year. The flue and brick repointing are probably top
priority, followed by the back patio, and then the ground floor windows.
The roof is coming, but probably not this year. Haven’t done the math yet
to figure out what we pay cash for vs getting a home equity loan. I tend to
keep too much liquidity around.
Flash, snack, sleep. Raven Tower is faaaaaabulous but completely spoilery
and I’ll definitely be going directly from the last page back to the first
to reread it.
Dreamt of church, socks, antique sales, roasting potatoes in the ashes of a
wood fire, camping, stargazing, fireworks, getting lost with friends.
