did I mention the bird eggs all hatched 6 days ago??
they started out looking like the stuff out of nightmares. Here’s a bunch of stills from videos. (We also have the other view of the mom/dad coming in and feeding. But I chose ones here that kind of showcase the feathers coming in)
i have mostly given up on internships which frees up my mind to FREAK TF OUT about turning something in for NeurIPS in May 19th.

the inaudible hunt I helped organize / wrote for went well, almost 50 team/people completed the hunt

so pessimistic about the future. gotta remember there will be unexpected happy points too.
