Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
How tricky is working with platforms like ubuntu? Vista makes me crazy too, but I'm easily confused.
Supposed to be easy peasy. It's a hell of a lot more friendly, and more like gaming and fun than programming (though I'm not sure I'm getting anywhere), and I'm known as a Computer Murderer by Mere Presence. They tend to die when I'm around them for too long.
I'm actually quite good at telling people what to do
... and you get them to listen to you, too? And do as they were told? And learn from past mistakes? Really?
People, I vote Seska to be the boss of us.
Right, time to go out and meet my unavoidable fate: statistics.

It helps that they're being paid. But yes, I have them very well trained.
OK. Doctor's appt; train home; packing packing packing.
Who the hell aims for a 70 on their final? Or on any test?
It may be more a time management thing. If you know you don't have as much time as you need for all your subjects, you need to plan where to allocate the shortfall for minimum damage.
I'm still sceptical of Hil's student, though, as his complaint seems to rest on him being just that good a judge of what mark he'd get for the effort he put in. (I think there's a bit of interpreting things after the fact going on.) And, importantly, he was explicitly told the previous values were only estimates.
Phew
The creepy right-wing guy who stared at me in the computer farm and came on to me with transparent statistics questions left without further communication. Thank God, didn't wanna start a political argument. And yeah, his political approach (all over his t-shirt - can't miss) makes him creepy, not his actions.
Also? Guess who's about to finish with her statistics homework? And it took less than 20 minutes! It's a record!
Yay, Shir, pwning the stats homework.
Good luck with the packing supervision, Seska. (Is it terribly wrong of me to wonder when your true Kardasian evil is going to show up?)
"One of my favorite examples of the slant was how certain states I've lived in taxed feminine products, but not shaving cream, because shaving cream was a necessity (like food), but feminine products weren't. @@"
W. T. F. Like having a beard makes a man's life entirely unliveable, but it's totally acceptable for a woman to go walking around town with blood running down her legs? Or do they just expect us to stay in the red tent for a week every month?

I can see the headlines now: "Standard deviation not enough for perverted statistician."

That should be on a t-shirt.
Yay for getting the statistics homework done, Shir!
Last night's pizza discussion never happened because we took the dog to the park, like we always do, and she met her first skunk. Fortunately, she got hit in the chest, not the face, we got her into the bath quickly before the oil had a chance to spread much, and we were able to wash the worst of it out with dishsoap. She's still a Stinkyfras, but it's not as bad as I fear it could have been.
One of my most vivid childhood memories is the annual trip to Maine with our family dog who had been sprayed by a skunk the night before. P-U!
