A frog hunts on land by vision. He escapes enemies mainly by seeing them. His eyes do not move, as do ours, to follow prey, attend suspicious events, or search for things of interest. If his body changes its position with respect to gravity or the whole visual world is rotated about him, then he shows compensatory eye movements. These movements enter his hunting and evading habits only, e.g., as he sits on a rocking lily pad. Thus his eyes are actively stabilized. He has no fovea, or region of greatest acuity in vision, upon which he must center a part of the image. He has only a single visual system, retina to colliculus, not a double one such as ours where the retina sends fibers not only to colliculus but to the lateral geniculate body which relays to cerebral cortex. Thus, we chose to work on the frog because of the uniformity of his retina, the normal lack of eye and head movements except for those which stabilize the retinal image, and the relative simplicity of the connection of his eye to his brain.
Old timey papers were written like novels and it's weird.
Fig. 1 illustrates our friend the frog attending one of many suspicious events which he partakes during the small hours of the morning. To Mr. Frog's left and right sit his brethren, joined in a fine circle. These frogs compose the higher ranks of an illustrious and highly secretive cabal whose intentions are only now becoming understood by our field of dedicated researchers. In the middle of the circle is a white rabbit. Note the evidence of tool usage, normally thought uncommon, in the tightly knotted twine which binds the rabbit.
In Fig. 2 see our friend the frog hop forward, his neck expanding as a black thundercloud, reflecting in the rabbit's eyes shining with fear. A shiv, cleverly fashioned from a rabbit bone, is gratefully accepted by Mr. Frog.

My new job is going to challenge me - I will be working with a bunch of technically competent people who know their shit, and I cannot crab fab at all.
They are fine with you getting the answer from the Google machine though because everyone does that.
Haven't even started working yet and I already have been scoring points with the people who will be managing me.
I really cannot wait. Being the lone tech guy in a company full of people who don't get what you do has some advantages, but God it's frustrating.

I kind of want to get one of those "lone tech guy" jobs...
They don't grow on trees tho
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

Figure 3 is alarming in how well it portrays the subsequent orgy
If you ever want to read something outside of your discipline, this makes more sense if you read the paper "What the frog's eye tells the frog's brain"
Also @everyone this is what it actually would look like if you had vision that only worked on moving targets
