If your target customer has ADHD, then your ads where the images change once a second are spot on. Otherwise, learn how to slow down how long each image is displayed so it doesn’t annoy people enough to drive them away from your website. Any decent website designer should have learned a long time ago the evils of the Blink tag and know enough not to use that same concept anywhere else on the site.

I use that in my work Outlook, too. Have for … yearsandyearsandyears.
I don’t do email on my phone except in emergencies. We have enough ways the oncall alerts can fire off, and I get too much cruft to make an alert each time worth it.

2020 just keeps coming. And now, Murder Hornets. (Admittedly, sounds like a good band name.)

I’m randomly approaching ‘mandatory hat’ hair level.
My wife tried to taper mine and she was dissatisfied with her attempt. I told her I’d be fine with an all-over buzz down to one length… “Quarantine Chic, honey!”

We’ve talked about getting the dog clippers out.
Thankfully that’s been my hair style for years. Though with my hair that short it is mandatory hat season in the summer, skin cancer and scalp burn suck.
When mine gets this long and I wear a hat, it forms wings over and behind my ears. I hate it, it drives me nutz. So I haven’t worn a hat regularly in the last 2+ weeks. Exception was while helping my step-son move, because a hat keeps the hair from blowing around and into my eyes.

My beard is so long it flies in my eyes driving with the windows open…
This is not ok.
Hockey hair.
That’s funny
Let me guess - you’re one of the two bearded guys from ZZ Top??

The third one, Frank Beard, finally grew a beard, too!
Over the weekend, my wife finally commented on my beard. I haven’t shaved since late February. Mine doesn’t fill in well, so I had to get a head start on the other guys growing quarantine beards. 
Not quite that long, but it’s getting close to moving reinvest length to belly length.
It’s the sides that are really annoying.
I’m fine with the length of my hair. Wouldn’t mind covering up these roots and grays though.
I finally broke down and cut my own the other day. It didn’t turn out badly.
So, I’m a 1099 employee, which means I don’t usually qualify for unemployment. But the latest kerfuffle allows it. I was out of work for 6 weeks, but I have some moral issues claiming unemployment because we didn’t really need it. On the other hand, I pay plenty in taxes to fund that, even without paying unemployment taxes the last couple years I still had 8 years of payments behind me at a much higher rate.
I’m back to work now, but the extra cash from the unemployment would help a lot with the debt we’ve taken on from the house renovations.
Just an interesting moral quandary for me.
Hard parenting night today. 13 is a really shitty age sometimes.
This seemed like the best place to put it, but I’ve been continuing my Python self-Education and ended up diving into Pandas, Python’s version of Excel/spreadsheets. I was struggling with the syntax, most notably how to get at the data within the structures themselves because, frankly, it doesn’t follow the rules when compared to lists or dictionaries. Accessing data within it is odd, at least to me. But, today it finally clicked and I can now add it to my list of ‘shit I know enough to be dangerous with’ in Python. Now I’m on to doing more crazy stuff with matplotlib…
Warning, COVID rant ahead:
In other news, I am really, REALLY tired of being an employee and a full-time home-school teacher for my kids. Aside from the lackluster communication I’m getting from half of my oldest’s teachers, Google has deemed it necessary to protect children from the evils of Chrome Extensions. Nevermind that their schools require the use of at least 3 extensions at any given time. Also, they can’t even print on their Chromebooks without an extension from HP. Great system there, Google. So now, I’m forced to create another dummy account for my kids just so they can access their school work properly without having access to my account. It’s really asinine.
Oh, the emotional levels of my oldest daughter are through the roof. 12 is such a fun age.
