Think of it like 'motherfucker'. No one is calling people mothers and accusing them of fucking. I do like your interpretation though. If that hasn't been the premise for a movie or TV show then it probably should be.

I'm not just saying this because you said you're a woman but I liked https://nostarch.com/smartgirlsguide

For my friends with kids about to use the internet without restriction I've been getting them copies so they have something to refer to if they need it. It's a good overview and leads to books better suited for specific topics.

The books from this guy have also been pretty helpful: https://inteltechniques.com/books.html

They also get an visual indicator from the flowers we can't see. The bees just need a rough map to the area. Check this shit out: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/flowers-manipulate-light-to-send-secret-signals-bees-180965316/

This explains the waggle dance in a way I like: https://beeprofessor.com/waggle-dance/

More cool info about bees. Bee lifecycles, how queens are made and supercedure are my favorite topics.

If I close my google account can someone else claim my old name? I'd like to shut it down but not if someone can use the address for nefarious purposes.

We can have both and that's all I want.

I get that adding a QR code adds a tracking/metrics component to an organizations resources but as a user it pisses me off. Just put a human-readable URL there so I know what to do. I can remember www.poblanopete.com easier than I scan and load a page on my phone.

My town has a poster downtown that says "Scan here to see a map of this downtown area". WTF? Why not just put a fucking map there with an arrow that says "You are here?". It at least makes me laugh every time I see it.

Damn! I was going to say American Pie but I think you've got the better answer but I don't want to hear either of these songs ever again.
