I was a neglectful child. I won a goldfish from the fair. For a while, it was doing alright, but eventually the filter failed or just got so dirty that the whole tank was just brown, murky water. You couldn't see anything in there. I'd say < 5 mm visibility.

I assumed the fish had died. I felt guilty about it every day. But then I saw something moving in there! I couldn't believe it and I got him out into a bucket of fresh water. He was at least 6" long and pure white. Plenty of sun hit that tank, it just couldn't penetrate the water to give him a tan.

He was pretty healthy. I vaguely remember my dad mentioning that he felt bad about it and would feed it from time to time.

TL;DR: Very murky water will also do this.

There is no 787 freighter yet. Do you mean the cargo area of a commercial flight?

I was caught hopping onto an SD70MAC out of Waycross, GA once. The conductors stopped the train and told me to get off and ride in the freight. I felt really bad and also really grateful that they let me go. It was freezing and I was a fairly innocent looking teen. They had guns.

Any chance that the deployment error messages from Beanstalk could be made to be more descriptive? I uploaded a large PHP application package (little PHP, large dictionary with thousands of small files) and all I got back was something like "Failed."

Yep, I'm sure. They came directly from the first engine and I saw them walk back to it. Interesting.
