Greek yogurt is about a third that price if you just make it yourself.

Nobody knows git. We all just run the few basic commands, then again with the -f switch just in case. Then if that doesn’t work, reclone.

And disregarding those expectations can carry personal liability for anyone in a position to do it, because the executive leadership of the company has a legal responsibility to act in the interest of the shareholders above all else.

Cub scouts camped in the infield at Daytona this past weekend, and I can assure you that winter was in full swing. It was crazy cold overnight.

So much this. I started using it during Covid, and it’s been so great that I prefer Sams over any other shopping experience.

At least it’s not that bad this time. No idea how she’s gonna go over in Miami, which may prove to be a weak spot depending how her campaign sells her, but at least she’s not quite as weak as Ol Chuckles.

It’ll be interesting to see how Debbie Powell campaigns against Rick Scott. Her early messaging is pretty weak, and her team is obviously trying to tie her in to the abortion amendment that might make the ballot (which is probably a mistake).

But there’s a lot to dislike about Rick Scott, so they have room to grow into a coherent message. Which would be a nice change of pace from the Florida Democratic Party, which can never seem to get out of its own way.

She faces very long odds in general, but especially given the party migration that’s happening in Florida the last few years. Here’s hoping she can put up the good fight and make Rick actually work for it for a change.

We had to do this in Colorado public schools in the late 80s.

30 years later I’ve got a mouth full of false teeth.

Not sure it worked out like they wanted it to.

Mostly private and home school in my area. The district is still showing a 10% loss in enrollment despite being the #1 relocation destination in the US in 2023 (according to Uhaul, so take from that what you will). We’re gaining population, and still public school enrollment is going down.

Private and charter schools are all completely full. There are so many homeschoolers that businesses that do extra-curriculars (music lessons, dance programs, sports, etc) are all offering morning and mid-day sessions to keep up with demand. The local little league is talking about having two teams limited to homeschoolers so they can practice mid-day and free up the fields during after school hours.

Meanwhile the public schools struggle to keep their teacher slots, which are allocated based on enrollment.

This. Those weekly rockets are visible from my house. It’s almost a non-event to all but the most avid space fans - people play “was that rumble a rocket or a freight train”. The county EOC is trying to get permission not to activate for Falcon 9 launches because they’re so reliable.

But yeah let’s pretend SpaceX are all idiots because they blow things up in testing.

Is it “don’t use them and just keep track of your stuff”? Because that seems like the most right answer here.

They need to make some money - infrastructure isn’t free, employees need paid, etc. they should be self sustaining.

They don’t need to be 2009-Google profitable though. That pipe dream needs to end. 3-5% YoY growth is plenty.

Yes, but poorly. And even then it took at least 8 years to get caught. With a little creative thinking in the software design, there’s little chance another attempt would ever be discovered.

The shocking part about this is that they installed a dedicated defeat device and expected no one to notice. Come on guys, cars are software, if you want to end run the emissions standards just write more creative code.

Maybe one day many, many years from now when there are far fewer humans and machines have taken over nearly all production. UBI isn’t feasible on this side of the coming demographic boogaloo.

Seconded, can’t imagine life without my family.

My 80 year old dad has been using a XUbuntu for years and never even noticed. The only reason he knows he’s using Linux at all is because he saw a news story about Windows tracking and asked about it. He was quite happy not to be affected.

At least this article calls out that the stores kept open also are busier, so the higher potential for theft has less impact on profitability.

Nobody closes a profitable location solely over theft. The only closures that shoplifting is driving are ones at stores that were already underperforming. If increasing theft drives a store into the red, that’s a sensible closure, but profitability is the real driver, not theft.

Didn’t he do this once before, and it affected a whopping 0 people?

Very much this. Four times I’ve accidentally flown with live ammo in my carry on and gotten through the TSA checkpoint unflagged. I can also verify that the hand swab thing they do doesn’t pick up gunpowder.
