December Solstice
May the dawn of the Winter Solstice chase the dark away  May it bring you the promise of endless brand new days  May all your sorrow vanish  And all your dreams come true  And may th 1030x1030

Reminder—the sole reason student loans exist is because Reagan was a racist & misogynist who didn't want "undesirables" (women & minorities) to get higher education so he defunded public education & forced privatization. Thus, canceling student loans is an economic, racial, & gender justice necessity.

Hmm, a great deal of the problems residents had in New Orleans rebuilding their homes after Katrina (per the book I am reading) were contractors-not-knowing-what-they-were-doing (or just lying about their expertise). Issues similar to what I faced in my own plumbing disaster here (except, my experience in DIY repairs significantly, significantly avoided many of the issues they had to navigate -- obviously, an unfair socioeconomic advantage of being a suburban homeowner with an engineering background). DIY repairs is definitely #DisasterPreparedness

The 10k foor problem is that some states like LA and TX do not have a thing that is a certified general contract. Anyone can call themselves a GC.
When we had the tornado, USAA sent the money to my mortgage company almost instantly. It took me 18 months and lawyers to fix my house, because I couldn’t hire an LGC, because there are no such thing here.

After an absolute disaster with the person they made me hire, and when I could prove he didn’t have the insurance and bonds he claimed, I honest to god, paid 700$ to open a Texas llc, called myself a general contractor and started bringing my own known individual contractors, roofers, drywall, painters, etc. and billed it all as my company. it was the only way to shake the money loose from Nationstar. They suck so much. (On the upside, I was able to get some neighbors situations ironed out too, and didnt charge anyone for my labor, we’d all been through so much.)

"Dec 20, 2024
The full-scale invasion is in its third winter, and once again Ukrainian troops are faced not only with the death and suffering that come with war but also with the bitter cold. To better understand how these men feel, we joined an artillery unit of the 154th Mechanized Brigade for two days. If you feel like donating to the 154th, you can do so via this link:

I wish kitties could tell it their troubles. Normally, Penguin flops down facing away from me when she wants pets, but she occasionally faces me instead with an extra grump look in her eyes. She wants attention, but she is also upset at something, so the attention needs to be extra gentle. It is hard to navigate, and extra bitey, but I make sure she leaves with a cheered up look on her face

Yesterday the workload let up enough to take time off/go for a walk in daylight. As a treat.

Lusha prefers night walks (smells), but birdwatching is also good..

Been a while since I've had this much space on my bench! The trigger crossbar is finally on the rack.

I need to measure and order a lot of cabling to fully hook it up, and it's open topped for now so I can still get JTAG dongles in (firmware isn't quite finished and while I can OTA flash most components, debug/trace access is nice).

But it's off the bench which is great.
