Hey. Hey Guys You Know What Would Be Funny.

hey. hey guys you know what would be funny.

I am so happy for you! Congratulations! I hope it will be an awesome place to work!!!

Here is a good tip for whenever you join a new company, no matter which number of job it is for you

Write down things you wished to had when you started. List of Libraries to download, instructions, tutorials in how to do things, set up ID. Virtual machines...Whatever.

And then offer to your supervisor after some months that you spend a few work-hours making those ressources.

From then on, make it a task of every new hire to update this packet.

That way it comes easier and easier to be a newly hired person at this company.

This trick takes advantage of the fact that YOU are right now the best and most experienced in the company at "Being the newly hired person", and so are by far the most competent to do this.

First day at new job!

Monday 8th January 2024

OMG today was the best! The new job’s office (not in the picture background, I'm at the doctor's there...) has so many cool chill people in it, so far I wanna stay here forever!

Had induction meetings, and a tour around the office, everything was so cool! Another 2 people joined so I wasn’t entirely nervous thinking I’m the only one who would be confused on the whole onboarding process. Work’s in an old-like building with a Grunge aesthetic vibe going on, absolutely love it! And music plays in the background which is so much better than the old job which was in complete silence 🤐

I'm just super excited to start working on the project + the team seem, and are, super friendly and helpful! Thank God for a smooth process getting here, yay!

New Years Resolutions #3: Work hard and do well in new job!

This is freaking amazing. And I think you are making good choices in simply cutting away what is not working so you can make your deadline.

I am still curious though.

Power banks are freaking temperamental little bitches ( There is NO standard for when they should give charge, other than the vague " When a phone is connected" ). How did the environmental sensor not like it?

And did the programmable RGB have a datasheet to explain the logic of how to address LEDs?

And would it be possible to adjust the addressable LEDs by powering them with a PWM signal? ( IE, is it powered by 5V? )

Servo skull integration is underway!

I have run a few tests and the core functionality seems to be working fine - so I can press the button and it'll take a picture with the camera embedded in the left eye socket, briefly illuminating an led that's in the right eye socket and playing a buzzer briefly.

The green led turns on when the program I wrote is running, and if it's connected to a network the orange led will also turn on(so I can tell whether it's accessible to get the pictures off of it)

So it should be all good for MCM London on Saturday at this rate, just need to check that the cranial casing for the left hand side won't affect the picture too much

Had to remove the environment sensor as it didn't like that it was being powered from a power bank - so no temperature alert when it gets too hot for me(It was going to light up the remed if the temperature got above 30°)

Also had to take off the programmable RGB array, as whoever wired that integrated circuit was clearly on a great many things when they designed it - Trying to just access specified lights was madness. The first led was accessed through (0,1) whilst the 2nd was (1,1) and the third (6,0). And having all of them on made it looks like the skull was about to self-destruct with how bright they are

My husband loves me a lot... despite the task I make that :p

Me, in a jolly mood, once again forgetting to do volume control: "GOOD MORNING HUNEY!" Husband ( In the most loving but tired voice ): " Stop screaming in my ear... you... colossal... moron."

Like... You know how sometimes when you hear people speak you can HEAR the punctuation mark at the end of that sentence. It was NOT a exclamation mark or no punctuation whatsoever.

It was not "moron!" or "moron" It was "moron."

Denmark... is a elitist, right wing country

( Trigger warning, if you do not wish to hear about my political posts, blacklists the tag Danish Politics") So I am a Dane. And weirdly enough for my atheist, polyamorous self, I actually do want to be proud of my nation. And I AM, of several things Denmark have done... But overall? No. Denmark have widespread corruption ( A test in the spring of 2023 of "Who is willing to take bribes if we offer them 50k DKK (About 7.5k USD)" had 91% of politicians in parliament saying yes please) but a lot of the success of Denmark is based on what people THINK of Denmark, rather than what it actually is. For example, I finished university currently. And not only did the Uni teach students a way of doing databases that was in direct breach of GDPR (I documented this, and still have it all, since at the end of my education, I did not trust the university at all), but in at least 4 classes, the teacher did not bother to define what the students had to do to pass. In my robotics class, our final papers definition was "It must be 5 pages". That was it. No topic, no focus, no anything. You could still fail, but the requirements was inside a professors head, and you had to guess. If you ask the universities they will tell you that they received basically no complains. They forget to mention that there is no way TO complain. Despite this completely incompetent behavior, people having a danish education is thought of as high level. Because we used to be. Basically anything good you hear of Denmark, is inertia from its behavior in the 1990s (30+ years ago). Today it is a corrupt, right wing extremist state like so many other disappointments. We still have rights, but they are getting removed. And the majority of Danes do not care. They are busy yelling their sympathies to Israel.

What's your favourite fact?

Don't really have many favorite things.

But I will tell you the best one I can think of right now:

"Human eyeballs are all the exact same size. "

Now. In fact, they grow a little bit ra little while after birth. And "Exactly the same size" means "Within 1-2mm" but I think it counts.

Why do I know that fact? Because I make robots. And robots can get the distance to something on the camera IF they know the true size of an object next to the target.

And eyes are quite easy to spot with peogramming. So robots use all the human eyeballs to constantly calibrate their distance measurements.

Now THAT is a neat fact!
