Walking with My Son: A Rare Gift Twice in One Day

avatar

A few weeks ago, I mentioned a walk I took with my eldest son—a rare occurrence that I hold close. Life has a way of keeping us busy, scattering these precious moments across time like leaves in the wind. But this weekend, something magical happened. Not only did I get one of those cherished walks, but I got a second, just as meaningful.

The first part of our journey took us along a forest lake, where the water was so still it mirrored the sky and trees with perfect clarity. We didn’t talk much; we didn’t need to. The silence was a conversation in itself, punctuated only by the occasional rustle of leaves or the distant call of a bird.

As we moved deeper into the forest and across the heath, it struck me how these moments are the ones that stay with you. It wasn’t about the 10km we walked—it was about the connection, the quiet understanding that in that moment, nothing else mattered.

It’s funny how life works. You go through weeks without a moment like this, and then suddenly, two come along back to back, as if the universe knows you need them. They say lightning doesn’t strike twice, but maybe, just maybe, moments like these do.

So here’s to the unexpected walks, the quiet conversations, and the memories we carry with us long after we’ve returned home. Here’s to hoping for many more of these rare gifts. 🌲👣

It most certainly is, because not only can we share thoughts, but also feelings, emotions, images, memories, understanding, and at the highest levels, even skills and abilities. Telepathy is the most natural way for consciousness of any expression to communicate. When people are strongly bonded and in sync with each other, experiences of telepathy are common, as I can attest from personal experience. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Yep, what is called quantum entanglement is describing an inherent aspect of consciousness, and of any measure, namely of being inherently and irrevocably interconnected. I'm aware the quantum entanglement as it's usually used is describing the relationship between photons or various 'subatomic particles', but it is the ground of how everything functions. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

!INDEED I've noticed! I've seen it catching up! I've noticed a curious pattern. Sometimes when I use the call, it fails, but if I edit the comment and update it, it seems to catch it the second time. It will even skip someone, then tip the individual that I tipped right after them, sometimes in the same comment stream (their replies are right next to each other in the UI). It's quite curious. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Something to keep an eye on for sure! But I guess it has a bit to do with the fact that it was catching up for more than 3 days.

I think your idea about the attacks might be pretty close to the truth in fact! Thinking about a way to figure it out…
BTW: I currently have monitors enabled on each of the bots, and Indeedly has been running without any breaks of more then 1 hour for 21 days and 14 minutes now!!!!
A break of less than 1 hour means I’ve restarted it after making a change. A break of more than 1 hour means it’s dead :-) And then I start getting notifications on just about any communication channels I have access to :-)
Pretty nice huh ;-)

I'm thinking more and more that is the case! I'd love to find a way to test it! That's excellent about the bot monitors, and @indeedly's record! That's also pretty badass that you implemented multi-channel notifications upon breakage! Incredible! I love it! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

!INDEED we'll deal with that later on ;-) I have mobile SSH access to the server as well, so there's only a slim chance that if something happens, I can't fix it pretty fast.
Is the !LOLZ bot down btw? I didn't notice yet. But at the moment I'm waaaay to busy to look at the responses of our own bots, let alone all the other ones :-D

Especially that is the !WEIRDest thing of all !INDEED ! That all bots stop reponding (our bots never went down btw, they kept “working”), except for !DOOK !
Last time I noticed, I did see it starting to lag, but never as long/hard as the other ones.

It sure is !WEIRD af !INDEED, especially considering that I knew that our bots at least were still running fine! DOOK is a beast! Yep, it seems to just keep going, on this end anyway, regardless of what the other bots are doing! I !HOPE that we can figure out why that is exactly! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Been working on writing the logs as well, instead of only showing them. The with some grepping and some extended logging, we will have a better understanding of what and how is going on!
