Bessie Stringfield
'In 1930, at age of 19, Bessie Stringfield flipped a penny onto a map of the US then ventured out on her bike alone. She became the first Black woman to ride a motorcycle in every one of the connected 48 states — a solo cross-country ride she undertook eight times during her lifetime'

Not gonna lie, this report is impressive, and every Mastodon instance should publish something like this every month. I have an account on mstdn.ca, and this is the kind of thing that would encourage me to move my main account from mastodon.social to mstdn.ca (although I would still support Eugen’s Patreon for his work on Mastodon, which benefits all instances). Staying put for now, though.

@ginnyhogan I love how simultaneously highbrow and lowbrow that joke is. @grammargirl

Working programs are all alike; every broken program is broken in its own way.
At least, that's how it should be. When multiple students submit solutions that take the same strange, nonworking approach, I get suspicious.
Pro tip for students: I'm not giving you these assignments because I want more copies of the solution. Struggling with them is how you learn.
