   @mangeurdenuage I disagree. Among other things, real direct messages would enable us to stop pretending that scope limited messages (SLMs) are DMs. SLMs are regular messages, but sent only to a specified list of recipients, which would be useful in recreating something akin to Diaspora's aspects or GPlus's circles. They're BAD when users believe they are private DMs, so they s…

   Mark started sending me some http://status.hackerposse.com/url/20891 links. When non-technical people are finding Reddit (and I can’t stand the place), it just feels weird. He’s at home about 100 miles away, so he can keep an eye on his mother. I don’t know whether he’s getting to visit his girlfriend right now. She used to live at her parents’ house, about 60 miles f…

   Saw a good-sized puff of black smoke rising from somewhere nearby. My immediate thought was to get closer to confirm that it was a house fire before calling the 9-11 emergency number. Glad I did so. Some bozo was burning weeds in his backyard. After the initial black smoke, it settled into a small stream of whitish smoke rising. As I understand it, burning requires a permit fr…

   Today, more stepping through the introduction to #SciLab. I’m getting a little more comfortable with the environment. Now I need to learn how to set up and enter formulas and data. Since both SciLab and #Octave are inspired by Matlab, I should probably open Octave and see how it compares.

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu Someone claimed that the 1918 Influenza A H1N1 pandemic started in Kansas (likely at Fort Riley), but apparently, there’s no scholarly agreement as to the time or location where that deadly strain arose.

   Meanwhile, #NOAA / #NWS is warning about minor flooding along portions of streams and rivers in #KS and #MO. There were some decent rains upstream recently. So far, only fifteen alerts today.
   
   The usual advice applies: don’t drive through floodwater, as you cannot always tell how deep it is until you’re already in trouble.

    Realized there was nothing cooking for dinner, so I threw some sausages, frozen mixed vegetables ???? ???? ????, and some potatoes in a pan and stuck it in the portable electric oven and put it outside on the patio to cook. (It is too hot to use the oven built into the stove today.)
    
    I have no idea whether this will be a hit or a miss. I just realized that either someone cooks something or there’s no dinner.

    Looking on the US "confirmed by population" map on the JHU site. Along with the NYC area, the Navajo / Hopi reservation area in #AZ and #NM seems to have some of the highest numbers of cases (per capita) in the nation. Also the New Orleans area of #LA and an area that looks like it overlaps southern #GA and #AL.

    @simsa03 The game I have recently enjoyed most is one of those "arcade classics" ... I've been playing Pac-Man. I had forgotten how challenging it can be until you learn a pattern of movement (and of the ghosts' movements) to clear a maze.
