  1. Trek to Kanchenjunga Basecamp part 3:

    The weather changes quickly. Clouds fly in and some snowfall starts. On our way back we pass the other groups. As soon as they see us heading down they also start discussing and turn back some minutes later.

    The small uphill sections during descent are pushing our limits. We feel the fatigue.

    At 11:00 we reach the camp and are welcomed with a warm soup.

    We are happy because it was a great day and we are back safe.

  2. Trek to Kanchenjunga Basecamp part 2:

    We are the first group today with two others following roughly one hour behind us. We are making good progress and can pass the landslide sections quickly.

    Weather Forecast was sun until 12:00. It’s now 8:00 and dark clouds are flowing in. We have passed the old teahouse and estimate another 1:30 up to KBC.

    We continue for 20 more min. Then it’s just one look. We are alone in a very remote area at 5089m. Lets turn back

  3. Trek to Kanchenjunga Basecamp part 1:

    We got up at 4:30 and started at 5. Beautiful Morning with some snowfall throughout the night. Both Steffi and me feel that we are close to 5000m. We agreed to go slowly but steady. The landscape is so beautiful.

  8. Discontent is an unpolluted state which exists in each one of us if it is not deadened through wrong education, through gratifying solutions, through ambition, or through the pursuit of an ideal. When we understand the nature of real discontent, we shall see that attention is part of this burning flame which consumes the pettiness and leaves the mind free of the limitations of self-enclosing pursuits and gratifications.

  9. Day 9's wee bottle was Glenfiddich's 23 year old, 40% ABV Grand Cru, which has shown up in two previous calendars. Matured in ex-bourbon American oak, European oak, and French Champagne cuvée casks. Apples, pears, and caramel on the nose; honey, ginger, and shortbread on the palate; more pear and the oak on the finish. Bourbon-y but with wine and oak.

  10. CW: Advent of Code 2025 day 9 solution

    Day 9 done.

    This one was really hard for me. Part 1 wasn't bad at all; I could basically use the entirety of what I did yesterday for it.

    Part 2 was really hard. At first, I tried actually building a HashSet of all the red and green tiles, and then a HashSet of all the areas for each pair, and checking them against each other. Needless to say, that wouldn't work. Building the tile HashSet alone would have eaten up more memory than I have on my computer, and I should have realized that immediately looking at my answer to part 1 (which was an area of over 4 billion tiles). I thought that checking a line of green tiles through the area wouldn't necessarily work, because a malicious input could make that not work (two immediate right or left turns could make a pair of adjacent green tile lines that would still work), but it turns out that it works fine for my input. Probably all inputs.

    It works. I don't feel totally satisfied with the solution, but it works.

    I think a more robust solution could be to trace the outline and fill it with square area units, then for each area to test (ordered from largest to smallest), repeatedly cut area out of it with the green tile squares. If all overlapping areas are tested and there are still un-cut squares, the area is invalid; move on to the next. If the area is cut completely to nothing, then it is the best area. I'm not going to implement this, because it sounds like a total fiddly pain, but I would be interested in seeing somebody else's solution along these lines.

    Probably due to the trip through iMovie, today’s timelapse wouldn’t attach to the previous toot, so here it is by itself. Why iMovie? Because I just had to include a surprise bonus soundtrack!

    I feel your pain, Sisyphus.

    I’m not really sure why, but my timelapse video refused to attach to this toot. Maybe because it isn’t straight out of Linea Sketch. It took a trip through iMovie for a surprise. Check it out in the next threaded toot.

    #Feb06 #day9 Most memorable ointment application and/or bandaging of a shoulder, chest or upper arm?

    In #W2Worlds ep 1 #HanHyoJoo performs an emergency procedure on #LeeJongSuk by stabbing a ball pen 🖊️ into his chest to evacuate the air from his lungs.

    The two leads stare at each other for the first time this way 😂

    Ok, I may be OT, but I don't recall anything more memorable than that!

  19. Day 9 got away from me, so a quick photo of what has turned into a nightcap. The dram is Benriach's “The Smokey Twelve”, a (minimally) 12-year-old Speyside single malt that combines whiskies finished in bourbon, sherry, and Marsala, 46%ABV.

    The quick photo just backlights the Glencairn glass on an old cranberry box. What can I say? I like the way the texture of this old wood comes across in a photo.

    Today’s blog is from 25-July-2016, originally published on Scrum Alliance. It’s essentially me verifying my understanding of the #Agile world up until that point.

  22. Back to the questioning of #TrumpOrg Asst VP Patrick #Birney by #NYAG:

    NYAG atty Haren examined comms between the #TrumpOrganization & #CalebMelby, a reporter worked at #Forbes & but now works at #Bloomberg. He worked on Trump’s #NetWorth estimates for @business.

    Birney contacted real estate firm #CushmanWakefield for info on #CapRates.

  23. Another interesting detail:

    While #NYAG questioned #Birney about the spreadsheets & notations, Birney testified that Allen #Weisselberg directed him to use a specific rate to boost the value of #TrumpTower.

    NYAG: “Where did that conversation occur?

    Birney: “In the restroom of Trump Tower.”

    (which calls to mind…)

    #NYAG #civil #fraud #TrumpTrial #Day9

  24. After #Birney described the bizarre valuation processes, it was noted that the “presidential premiums” weren’t in the final statements of financial conditions as such.

    The fudged valuations on the other properties occurred immediately after the #Forbes article exposed that #Trump had falsely reported the square footage & subsequently the valuation of Trump’s apartment.

    Basically, they were trying to find a way boost his #NetWorth.

  25. It’s #Day9 of the #TrumpTrial parties went immediately to sidebar at the start.

    #TrumpOrganization Asst VP #PatrickBirney returned to the stand. #Birney testified yesterday that he largely relied on #Weisselberg & controller Jeff #McConney to assemble #Trump's annual #financial stmnts.

    #NYAG #Wallace highlighted Birney's statements during his opening as evidence of an alleged #conspiracy w/in the #TrumpOrg to #inflate Trump's #NetWorth.

    "He likes to see it go up," Birney said.
