Little people, big shame
Sorry about the long break β I just wish I could tell you that it was because Iβd been completely unable to find any awful examples of the pink/blue βcolour barβ in kidsβ stuff. Sadly the truth is quite the reverse: there seems to be more of this crap every day, it gets demoralising, andβ¦

It was still operational, and could potentially be sent on a new mission, but NASA no longer had the equipment to talk to itΒand announced that reconstructing the equipmentβ¦

Programming Sucks
Every friend I have with a job that involves picking up something heavier than a laptop more than twice a week eventually finds a way to slip something like this into conversation: "Bro, you donβt work hard. I just worked a 4700-hour week digging a tunnel under Mordor with a screwdriver."
