Sunset at the Buffalo Ridge wind farm

A truly gorgeous sunset behind the Buffalo Ridge wind farm in SE Minnesota.

Last week I drove to a workshop in Madison, SD, with Kristin Lamberty (one of my Computer Science colleagues here at UMM). On the way, we went south on US 75, along the east side of the Buffalo Ridge wind farm, and there was a really gorgeous sunset behind them as we came into Lake Benton, MN.

KK was kind enough to let me stop and take some photos. This is one :-).

I haven’t actually messed with the colors here, except for deliberately underexposing the photo in the first place to saturate the colors. It really was a very cool sunset.

Two cool tweets from two cool alumni :-).

These two tweets, each wonderful in their own way, just showed up back-to-back in my Twitter stream:

The joy of programming is taking a crappy piece of code, full of hacks and bad practices, and rewriting it to be better in every way. — LynnKale

for a moment I couldn’t think of a word for “thing to tell me how to do other things,” googled ‘how to’ and figured the word (documentation) — _eli

It’s gems like this that make my day. Both authors are UMM CSci alum, now off doing cool stuff. It’s neat to be able to stay in touch on-line.
