Sitting next to my training bike, procrastinating using it and reading a review of research papers about the benefits of aerobic exercise for executive functioning. But not without interrupting my reading to check emails and write this post.

With an estimated average speed of 21.938 cm/h and 4 hours of breaks each day, my nose ran about 13 meters in the last three days. That means I'll probably be able to catch it once I'm out of quarantine and thus won't loose my sense of smell for very long.

I overestimate that by 2025 there will be more distinct keyboard layouts than humans.

So, since it seems that almost everybody seems to agree that Russian gas is bad, I decided to help by destroying as much of it as possible. All my windows are opened all day and my gas heater is turned up all the way.

Frustration ought to be illegal.
I don't understand why I have to wait so long in the waiting room before I can see the doctor.

There is a research paper that was published a year ago and hasn't gotton enough attention in my opinion. I wished many times that somebody attempted something line this scientifically.
There are several very basic things wrong with this paper. The results are pretty much useless apart from the overall success of the comparison itself. Ignore the details. I can finally say with confidence that comparing apples with oranges is not as outragiously impossible as it is usually made out to be.
