  3. @wohali Bonbons can count as dessert, sure, why not

    but i question the validity as turtles, i mean, it says right on the box, turtle _brand_ caramel nut clusters

    not _turtle_ nut clusters, turtle _brand_

    dapper cartoon mascot aside - and he is very dapper indeed - i'm not sure these count as _turtles_

    and definitely not sandwiches

  5. From Ask A Manager:

    "We recently talked about people applying for — in working in — jobs that were clearly at odds with what they wanted to do, and here [is one] of my favorite stories you shared.

    1. The lack of turtles

    I worked with a lot of field biologists who were unsuited, mostly because they went into the field since they loved being outdoors and then were shocked to find that the job consisted of very boring and monotonous walking off trail and meticulous record keeping. But my favorite not-suited coworker was fine with all that! Except what she really wanted to be doing was surveying for turtles. Sadly, not a lot of our projects involved turtles. She still did a great job, but all her field reports would include lines like, “There were no turtles,” “One turtle seen on my lunch break when I hiked a mile to a waterway,” “Absolutely no habitat for turtles in this area, but I found some likely areas along the drive to this site,” and my favorite, “Thought I saw a turtle, but it was rock.”

    Loved her, stopped by her house once to meet her 20something turtles and had a blast. She eventually found a better paying job, sadly not turtle centered though."

  7. @turtlebeans And, well, the new "owners" of movies and TV series can just decide to remove them from #TheStream. Sad but true!

  8. @pythonhub

    Very cool concept - my home is a bit too small to sport a bot with the XLeRobot footprint, but I already have the tiny WALL-E. (look real closely at the Git repo photos - top shelf)

    I vote XLeRobot to be the next gen TurtleBot! (Since iRobot sank the TurtleBot4 we need TurtleBot5 candidates.)

  9. TSP - Travelling Salesman Problem - to represent a picture. Robert E. Bosch names it 'Opt Art' and we are watching a talk how to do this with TurtleStitch. Remote, by indian student Bhavik.

  11. Tomorrow people from all over the world are sharing their ideas on constructionism in education. From China, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, UK, Austria, United States and Germany (and maybe some others 😉). Some of them in real life at the LocHal, some others remote.
    Edit: And definitely Ireland too 😄
