Went for a little bit of a hike with the cats today, down the trail towards te Big Four Ice Caves but stopped at the Stillaguamish River to let them frolic at the shore.
The problem is that neither if them are really big on frolicking. Yuri's much too serious most of the time, and Sputnik mostly jus

They ran around quite a bit once we made it to the beach, but it took them a while to warm up to the idea. Sputnik probably would have preferred to stay home until naptime was over, but Yuri seemed to have at least *some* fun.

How do you get your cats to walk a half mile down a trail full of people that they don't know, half of which have dogs?
Sometimes it's just easier to let them delegate the walking to someone taller. The love the woods but aren't huge fans…

I've slowly been working on getting a Mellanox SN2010 (4x100G, 18x25G) working as a desktop switch at home, and I've had all sorts of *weird* problems. Since I'm mostly treating this as a software development platform, not really a produc…
A close view of one of the glaciers on #mountrainier. I love the textures in the ice and snow.
The level of detail that you can get out of a modern camera is just astounding; this is about a 25% crop of a hand-held image. Sometimes I rea…

Having a great AI + US Health Care day here.
Cigna "paid" one of my claims by marking it as 100% discounted, and deciding that neither I nor they had to pay anything for it.
Strangely, the medical center didn't view this as a valid form…
Oh, fun -- the network_exporter upgrade only *mostly* fixed the phantom ping failure problem.
If you look at the image (above), you'll see that one host had a somewhat-improbable 16.7% failure rate in every sample. Everything else looked …
Specifically, I had a handful of systems that showed near-constant 20-80% ping loss, but (a) I couldn't really reproduce it via `ping`, and (b) it didn't really correlate with any *specific* network link.
This morning's problem was my (WiF…
The fun thing is that our two cats are actually pretty good at going on walks on leashes together.
They're still cats, and there's always some amount of negotiation involved about which way we're going to walk and how much time we're going…
Even with the nearby dog, the cats were pretty happy with the locale. We were immediately forgiven for interrupting their nap time and throwing them into the car for a couple hours.
