Really not sure, but ... I'll give it a try:

Thank you!
I'm pretty glad about that ... I didn't like the solution at all!

I'm not big enough to cause an Eclipse.
Honest.

Thwarted = frustrated
Thwarted, derated = frust
with a filler = um (space filler in conversation) Frustum[^]

Absolutely correct! You're up tomorrow.

Well,
I guess this one was for me. I spent all last evening before bed playing with gauge symmetry transformations and various projections of the Gosset polytope. Nothing related to work... I am just trying to figure out how our universe might work.
I was quite surprised to see a geometry related CCC this morning. I solved it as ellipse just like @OriginalGriff but decided to not post the answer. When you told him it was wrong I took a closer look.
It's super wierd to see a CCC related to something I was doing right before bed. 
Best Wishes,
-David Delaune

If this is a reference to the observer effect (aka the measurement problem) then I have nothing to say about it. I don't understand quantum mechanics so I mostly avoid it.

Rolos as a real world example of the shape. That's brilliant, but now I want some.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Just as soon as I can get there.
Where is "there" do I hear you ask?
Constanța, Romania.
Yes, I'm going to be a SysAdmin, with the beach within shouting distance. 
|
|
|
|
|
Won't that make you a SeasAdmin?
Good luck with the new post - hope it goes well!

That sounds nice. I'm looking at moving into a similar direction (Sysadmin, moving away from development as my primary duty).

Best of luck!!!

Perfect torture. I like that. You have to sit in a hot (or freezingly climatized) room full of computers all day and get to see Babewatch right out the window. You can't even turn it off.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

worse would be going to work into a building with no windows passing various 'individuals' on way to beach for the day. and 'knowing' you won't see beach until dark. Which precludes one of the reasons for said beach. (The Viewing)
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer

Good luck with new job. We have a saying here; "Life's a Beach"

Nice benefit. You'll find that your development background will help as a sysadmin simply because you'll automate stuff.
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, I do that as often as allowed. Lazy by nature.
|
|

|

Nice! Enjoy looking out the window (if you'll have a window) wishing you were on the beach!
