Nothing big to report - mostly focused on a science meeting this morning and today being Kevin's day here at the lab.

Small things: I added a "overflow rate" to the science status page so we can see the current rate at which we're inserting overflow (i.e. noisy) results into the science database. I've also been fighting with getting some more storage space available on thumper for multibeam data which meant screwing around with fdisk, parted, mdadm and lvm all afternoon. Seems like it should be fast and easy, as I've done this all before, but I also like to take things slowly and carefully. Then when things don't work the way they should, I have to rifle through man pages which make my eyes cross.

Staying late today. ;-) Tell Kevin 'thanks' for all of us.

[Edit] Cancel that first part. I see you posted two hours before me which would make it roughly 4:30PM Berk time.
