Colleagues from Japan

Image
We had two colleagues from Japan join my team for two weeks. It was a great expereince to share cultures, workflows and real work expereince for comparison between the US and Japan. We did lot of activitys outside of work and had some fun. Angie joined for on the weekend activities. It will be a very memorable time for all involved.
The fact is, reality is complicated, and not amenable to the "one large idea" model of problem solving. The only way that problems get solved in real life is with a lot of hard work on getting the details right. Not by some over-arching ideology that somehow magically makes things work. --Linus Torvalds

Images from this week. ---The Decatur Marta Station in Atlanta. I went to an Aviation Safety seminar there (in Decatur) this past week one evening. ---I had a new porch slab poured this week. The porch pillars are back in place now. ---Saturday I went to a steam-power meet in Rhode Island. It was good to see live steam. They also had some nice old radio equipment. Steam power and radios. They are a great combination.
