  • It’s true. You can already see some smoke in this picture. About an hour later it started to become much worse.

    There are fires in Oregon to the south, and fires in Canada to the north. Someone said we were likely seeing smoke from the South today, but maybe a bit of both, and since winds died down it just settled in the valley. It’s obscured views through the afternoon and into the night. Hopefully clears up by morning


  • Correct! This was actually not the summit, but a few bluffs west of there. Anyone who wants to get here should take the mirror lake trail and follow signs for Tom, Dick, and Harry.

    At this particular spot was a rounded out rock which made for the comfiest natural seating I’ve come across yet! 😁





  • I’ll figure out something, I always do, I just thought it would be nice to see what route others have taken with their own servers.

    Yeah for sure. Sorry I don’t have a good answer

    turned their email over to Microsoft and we’ve had nothing but non-stop spam, phishing attacks, outages, and the constant push of "oh if you’re not going to use a Microsoft product.

    Just wanna share that my experience does not mirror this. I pay them $6/ user per month (which is just me, for me personally, to be fair), which gets me that hosted exchange server 365 thing. I only rarely, if ever, need to use the other office products, and I do so in my browser. In the 2ish years so far I’ve had no complaints. I don’t require any of the features that are locked behind full-installation variants of their products - and besides that I’ve had no problem with spam email especially.

    Im not sure I would recommend that you tell your friends to authenticate with your own Active directory instance necessarily, but ultimately at the end of the day if you’re dealing with users you’ll need some kind of authentication layer (imo)





  • I’m flying into Tokyo on a Thursday. Going to stay a night, then take the train to Osaka for the weekend til Tuesday. Then heading west to Hiroshima for a bit, back to Osaka for the next weekend. Spend a night in Kyoto, then back to Tokyo until I fly out.

    That’s the loose itinerary at least, I really have no idea what I’m going to do while I’m there 😅. Lots of walking around town and maybe some nature excursions if anything calls out to me.

    I was going to go with a friend, but life got in the way and they had to bail. So I’ll be flying solo - it’s a bit daunting but I figure the one bag strategy might work well. Less stuff == less to keep track of and worry about.

    (Although I am packing a day bag in my one bag 😁)








  • Not really sure if this answers your question (I agree with you, ultimately), but here’s my experience:

    At the college I attended, these sigma/pi expressions weren’t taught until the end of Calculus 2, but I wanted to take an Algorithms class - which had calc 2 as a prerequisite.

    I got an exception from my advisor which allowed me to take Algorithms before the pre-req. In my experience, these concepts were easily learned in the context of algorithmic complexity.

    Some might be barred from learning important theory in computer science by “brutal” math classes at university. They might find solace in this post which translates sigma into ‘for’
