TIL that one of the Crew Dragon astronauts is the husband of an astronaut (and oceanographer) who I went to grad school with. Small world!

Morning SUP
At 7:30 this morning it was sunny and calm and I had the lake all to myself. Air/water were 9°/16°C, respectively.
Josefsgütsch hike 2
View of Lake Zug from today’s hike (while waiting for my son): 7.7km, 1h50m, 250m ascent, 17°C.
SUP carrier
Improvised a SUP carrier from a shopping trolley, bungee cords, and some climbing straps so I can leave it inflated and walk to the nearest water access. (Last year I was inflating and deflating with each use.)
Josefsgütsch hike 1
Squeezed in a short solo hike while waiting on my son to finish an activity: 4.7 km, 1h10m, 190m ascent, 21°C. Beautiful sunny day.
Wallabies
Silhouette of tree and two wallabies as seen on my after dinner walk. Don’t ask me why this Swiss farmer has wallabies.

CADisplayLink to the rescue
Yesterday I wasted several hours trying to animate both origin and size of a view’s frame. No matter what I tried, the size would always snap to the final value at the start of the animation. Today I said screw it and used CADisplayLink to perform the animation. Finally worked.
