Oatmeal Bread

(from Galilee Bible Camp)

I use the dough cycle on a bread machine and add the ingredients in the following order:

1.5 c water 3 T oil 1.5 T molasses 1.5 T sugar

[context: a friend shared an infographic about how companies lose good talent, my response ballooned into a massive essay/rant. Enjoy]

I've been studying this a bunch to try and understand why business are ran so weird compared to like 30-50 years ago. It's become "more profitable" to have higher turn-over, higher burnout, more bullshit jobs, incompeteance rewarded and promoted. There's a bunch of factors at play here.

1. No Slack at Work

There's no slack at work anymore. Demands on a business are variable; seasonal sales, new competitors, regulation changes. Short-term Resources available to a business are variable; goods shortages, sick workers, environmental issues (pandemic), onbarding new workers, training.

So you have these two flucating variables. When supply is greater than demand it creates a surplus of potential output, when demand is greater, a shortage of potential output. Both cases are bad for businesses, so the goal is to minimize the total delta. However since you can't control these

Condensed Rules for Coup

Coup

Coup is a quick game of bluffing, deception, and reading your opponents. 3-6 players, 5-10min play time. Needs a deck of cards and a bunch of tokens. Great to play over beers.

Components

  • Setup the 15 card deck: 3 copies of each King, Queen, Jack, Two, Ace
  • Gather tokens, at least 6 per player (eg. at least 24 for a 6 player game). Coins or poker chips work great.

Setup

js pad - a bookmarklet for js fiddling

js_pad

a micro javascript sandbox to play around in

Make a new bookmark, then copy and paste this as the URL:

data:text/html,<html contenteditable onkeyup="try{this.style.color='rgb(240,239,208)';console.clear();eval(this.innerText);}catch(err){this.style.color='rgb(223,175,143)';console.log(err);}"><title>js_pad</title><style>html{background:rgb(63,63,63);color:rgb(240,239,208);font-size:1.5em;font-family:Monospace}</style></html>

how it works

uses contenteditable to make the root html element edittable. On every keypress it evals the page's content. Changes the text color if it's valid code or not. Open dev tools and use console.log to see the results for your code.

Truce - A game of subterfuge, co-operation, and above all, diplomacy

Example Round of Truce

We have 6 players: Agatha, Barney, Celeste, Darcy, Emmett, and Freja

Emmett wants to kick off the game aggressively and wants to attack Agatha. They reach out to both Freja and Barney privately asking for support. Both Freja and Barney agree to support, but Barney does not plan on following through.

Barney tells Agatha of Emmett's attack and convinces her that she should defend with him supporting her, asking that the favour be returned later in the game. She agrees, but Barney is planning to decieve her. Instead he plots with Darcy, that they should attack Emmett, and split the winnings.

Celeste decides to stay out of the schemeing for this round. Seeing that everyone is busy and the Stash is at 2 coins, she decides to Loot thinking that no one else will.
