From the article: Actually, he couldn’t stop complimenting the movie, as you can see from the below video.

“Okay, without a doubt, and it remains so, 2001: A Space Odyssey. I still watch it a couple of times a year,” Hanks said. “I also go to it and just hit the main specific points. But I could walk you through 2001: A Space Odyssey and not stop talking once throughout the entire film. So I don’t know if you wanna have that experience…”

Yeah I just attached planks to the wheels and it was very slow/wonky, the korok made some distressed noises… but it worked!

This all sounds like a solid start tbh, if you learn pandas and bio python i feel like you are basically there

Woah! Yeah rewind is incredible

 

I’m trying to get better at building stuff in TOTK - I have made boats using a plank + fans + steering stick, and those work great. However, I’m at a backpack korok and need to get across a large body of water. The materials provided are a bunch of planks and wheels. I could take out some Zonai devices but I’m running low on fans and I feel like there must be some way to make a propeller or paddle boat or something like that. Post your boat builds here to inspire and maybe get inspired by others!

Hugos House of Horrors was the first video game I played — I was probably 7 or so and my mother would perm this ladies hair every few weeks. She was a family friend and was in a wheelchair, so we would go to her house. She had a computer that had this game on it and I was just mesmerized by the whole creepy/campy vibe.

It has its pros and cons — I work on lots of projects and help with parts of grant writing, but I’m not the one guiding the big research goal/question (I appreciate that the questions are interesting but don’t care that much about the question usually). Because I work on so many projects I usually only have <1 full day a week to work on each one, so progress can be slow and managing expectations can be challenging. I am paid more than a postdoc but less than I would in industry. It is expected that I will mentor undergraduate students and teach workshops. These things might make a big difference re: how much you enjoy the job. Folks in this type of position are sometimes called research software engineers: https://society-rse.org/

I’m a staff bioinformatics scientist at an academic institution, got my PhD a few years ago and wasn’t interested in a postdoc. I get to work on a huge range of research questions and lots of different technologies. It’s great!

I have made a Twigs pull over, which has similarly very low arm pits. It isn’t comfortable under a coat but that just means I only wear it in the fall/early spring when I don’t need the extra warmth, but it isn’t a huge issue. Looks great - did you just catch the floats?

I hope there will be a Mac version! Very excited about this
