Its been a while
I have no wrote in a while in here. Been really busy and been kind of lazy. A lot of things have been happening and I don’t really feel like getting into a lot of it. I only have a few more weeks left until I move back to Bethesda. I am looking forward to it a lot and although everything did not turn out how I planned it is okay.
I am sure that everything is for the best. I am ready to grab Washington by the horns and accomplishing all of my goals. Believe me there are a lot to accomplish.
I am going to attempt to continue to write more often, write about different things, cultivate my mind.
I registered for a little one credit class that I just needed to get out of the way hopefully it will ease me back into school. I am taking a whopping 5 classes next semester. It is going to be a lot of work but as usual I will persevere and continue to move forward in a positive direction.
I’m just going to make one small comment about a recent chain of events. I have been slightly foolish and childish and living in a dream world. It is important to know your worth. I finally realize mine. Never settle for somebody who does not give you the love and respect that you deserve. People do not change. No one is perfect - I know that, but some people you just have to move past , they are like a penny with a hole in it. Hopeless.

Qwen 3.8 27B is excellent, but it defaults to wildly overthinking things
Friday's big release was Qwen 3.8 27B, an Apache 2 licensed 27B parameter vision-capable LLM from Alibaba's Qwen research lab. I've been looking forward to this one: 27B is an excellent size for running a model on a reasonably specced laptop, and its prede...

Birding photos from Dutch Gap on Aug 15, 2026 My best bird photo from this morning is a dragonfly (Eastern Pondhawk, I think). Least Sandpiper Green Heron Red-headed Woodpecker. It's a juvenile, so its head is not actually red yet.
