Will Ellison and government officials volunteer to be observed for next 5 years to prove software?

(No.)

Kids in daycare are sick a wild amount of time. Nearly constantly during the indoor seasons, and only often in outdoor seasons.

I cannot read the article (laungage barrier), but I expect being 20% less sick is a net gain. Instead of 20 illnesses a year, only 16.

An apt quote from "Rick and Morty" is "no one exists on purpose".

Your parents' issues don't need to be yours.

I hope you don't carry this hurt forever. Sorry.

Makes one wonder how many other teams there are. FedEx, UPS, USPS all have multiple hubs. If your own doesn't have a hub, what does it have?

That is a kickass bed. That was a lot of work. Happy to have seen this meme just to see the bed.

I don't think it does. Push the name together, switch order of two letters, and it is ignoble. The name is a riff on the Nobel Prize.

Thank you.

I had hoped this was rather different from restoring a classic car given the modern target. Turns out it is not.

I am disappointed there is not a low profile group of people digging into it, like some other niches. (Other than classic car enthusiasts, which seem like a great group.)

Anyway, seems restoring a 1960s mustang is the thought project to pursue.

Cheers!

It is standardized. Just tge circles need to be drawn differently. Microsoft DOS was not the only DOS, and they had compatibility issues.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is one standard. Mac OS Unix. Ubuntu Linux. Microsoft Windows OS. OS/2 Warp OS.

All different, all standardized, often not compatible or interchangeable.

Those episodes are great. It is never clear just how much help they have in pulling off their exploits.

That is a good point.

 

I like a certain unremarkable car from the recent past. As they are repairable currently, can one just buy all of the parts new and put it together?

Are there any parts that aren't sold new?

Have you done this?
Are there any tools to help one get all of the parts?
Any communities?

 

"The Mighty Ducks" did a good job featuring Minnesota. "D2" did a shit job. Even called Minneapolis a "po dunk town". I think the writers had nit watched the first movies.

 

The lines are long. The food is expensive. Everyone in the group wants to eat something different. The food taste is a gamble. There are few places to eat.

Does everyone stick together and wait in all of the lines? Split up and meet at some location? Eat on the way to the festival and just hang out?

It often feels like there are only 3 productive hours in typical American white collar work day.

What if we just cut out the rest?

Edit: Some great responses. So responses must have also been said about the 5 day and 40 hour work weeks.

 

In the USA, 3.1% claim Atheist, 4% Agnostic, and a total of 22.8% "Unaffiliated".

In Minnesota, 3% claim to be Atheist, 4% Agnostic, with a total of 20% Unaffiliated.

Posted as I often feel there are few Atheists in the USA. Turns out Atheists are under noticed.

 

I keep getting a red banner saying “Toastify is awesome” when updating. What does it mean, and what should I do differently?

 

How would one actually calculate the full "fruit of labor" in work that includes several people doing different tasks?

How to calculate between people doing the same task producing physical items seems easy. Add in customer service, sales, and development, and it seems easier to focus on what other groups pay for those skills, which is not what I want.

It also seems looking at the difference between having the role, and not. However some skills are mandatory, just less involved.

Feel free to simplify, but different tasks is a must.

I don't like subscribing to nonphysical things. I can read a physical paper a month after it arrived. Digital is faster, but I tend to lose it before I have read it.

I need a recipient in my pocket. Too often my virtual thing is lost, my device fails, or things reboot and I don't have my secure 24 digit password with me.

I won't subscribe to a digital only anything. Physical and digital is nice.

Edit: They don't even have to be identical. A digital daily with a monthly print would be nice.

 

Hello friends. Work email is crushing me. The ticketing systems, plural, email me on everyone's tucket. (Because some people only work tickets via email and others through the web interface.)

Are there any email clients or servers that allow new email to land somewhere other than the inbox? Or allow my view to start elsewhere?

I declare email bankruptcy daily....

Send whiskey.

Edit: I was unclear.

I have filtering, but those all happen after the mail is in the Inbox. I get a quarter second of crazy emails and previews and things moving, then they are gone. (Outlook sucks.)

I don't even want to see that shit. Not at all.

 

Last Thursday, the medical colossus UnitedHealthcare applied for an emergency exemption that would fast-track its takeover of a medical practice in Corvallis, Oregon, in a letter warning regulators that the practice might close its doors if the merger were not approved right away.
