Saw on an old 2018 Babylon Bee post about how Google left Easter off of its homepage doodle in honor of the empty tomb. 2021, still no doodle? Here are some archived doodles that Google deemed important enough to advertise.

These people preach equality and fairness, but don’t think that they aren’t pawns of the evil one. Sever ties with companies like Google, don’t feed the beast.
@MaryMamuzich So cool! Hope you have a safe and comfortable journey. Praying for Lisa and baby. Should I know about Fufu? Happy Easter!
"When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed."

@rose_myrtle Pretty much. I'm not a PE but have a degree in civil, so I did the calcs and had it stamped. Need to redo the process since I'm in another state now. I made a few more renderings, I'll see if I can hunt them down. I wonder how public domain works for engineered documents. Would be nice to release them with a few how-to videos along the way.
Dusted off a concrete form system that I engineered back in 2008. It is much cheaper than the system I am using on my house, but no one wants to give planning approval/lend money for things that are unconventional. Makes me sad. I look at all of the crazy stuff built in the 70's and 80's and wonder if we will ever get back to such a creatively bold time. I might be able to sneak this into a barn or stables.
@rose_myrtle Companies should put a human face on their work. I almost always can gauge a company's stability and ability to deliver based on the attitude of its employees. They don't need to post all the time, maybe have some Q&A, some customer reviews, and maybe a poll from time to time. Less is more.
no matter how many technologies you are familiar/proficient with there will always be a longer list of technologies for which you have little to no familiarity or proficiency.
it is this second list whose members will jump out at you most when looking through job descriptions.
don't let the second list intimidate you. every skill in the list of things you count as your skillset was once listed on the second list, too.
@duponin I would feel safe AND want them. A lot of valuable footage for funny memories or learning lessons. If I or others could rewatch how our mistakes unfold, I would hope we could learn to not repeat them. A little like the way sports teams review past games. Plus, our actions being memorialized is a great incentive to make them good.
@deutrino That was my first car! Built like a tank, could actually get my hand in the engine to work, yet still somehow got 22 MPG on average.
@coagain1 I wrote my local radio host Ross Kaminsky on 630 K how about this and he is talking about it today.
