#juggling hack: hold one club in each hand and levitate the third one with your mind.
This poster has a very Erol Otus vibe.
"We're FINALLY on the way to the beach! I think I can already hear the ocean!"
"That's just everyone in the car sighing from pent-up exhaustion."

Saturday is a great day to head to the market to stock up on needed provisions.
I hope you are having a productive Saturday!

A friend attending #ICML just sent me a photo of this front runner for best poster award.

Trains’ Weirdly Massive Problem with Leaves - Half as Interesting
Trains are great. They are the best way to move people over middle distances that are too long for bike or a short car ride but too short for a plane to be economical. What is the arch enemy of trains? Leaves.
