Catching up on the podcast, your missing Indonesian coffee animal is the Civet Cat. There’s a huge deal around “sustainable” and cruelty free gathering of scat…
HT Erich Morisse:
Your show got me thinking of my long neglected Yahoo! email account, and I wanted to see if there was any signal buried in the years of neglected spam. On a whim, I tried regex figuring most real people would have their name as Firstname\sLastname. By gum! It worked: from:"^[^/s]* [^/s]*$" -in:trash
Worst part: Nope, no signal in the noise. (see pie chart)
