got schedule mixed up

17:46 Friday 27 April 2018 JST

I forgot the monthly Integration Group Coordinator call is at 9am Japan time now that the time has sprung forward an hour. I was a few minutes late to the call, but all was good. Oh that reminds me, I gotta correct the time in my reminder messages for next month.

We talked about suicide prevention, and ways to raise awareness of this issue and how people can get support.

i like marble track 3

17:35 Friday 27 April 2018 JST

Just smiling after watching the latest snippet for Marble Track 3 construction. It's the one called "Brotherly Spat" on YouTube. In it, the brothers get into a fight, which they had done a little bit in the first video, but this time, it's on, as they said on Southpark, and the brothers' fight is meant to look like a cartoon dust cloud with random feet and other extremities poking out of the cloud as it hovers in mid air.

I think the fight will continue for a while, but I am not sure if I can do anything interesting with it, nor how to end it.

But, I like the video as it stands for now and am looking forward to making more.

I had planned to work on it for an hour today, but got my schedule mixed up.

met jon for dinner and bridge spotting

21:34 Friday 27 April 2018 JST

Jon and I ate burgers after we did a bit of a code review and MySQL discussion. Short answer: it's better to loop through via code than do group+sort+filter+etc in MySQL.

After discussion, he showed me a lovely bridge across a river. It connects a building to a parking area with 15 bicycle parking spots on the far side of a river. 15 bicycle parking spots is a joke compared to the size of the building, and even the bridge itself, which features glass elevators on each side.

We found a couple of weird cables on the elevators, one of which I photographed with the intention of maybe posting on /r/whatisthisthing but I will probably forget to do so. Not even sure I will remember to post it here, given that it's late and I am writing this while on the train, and will probably get sidetracked when I get home and to wifi.
