Is it any of these?

Rek went overboard in a Pacific storm north of Japan. ("Busy Doing Nothing" book)

A lot of companies are MS O365/Teams shops.

My "favorite" behavior on the new post-DarkSky Weather app is that each of the phones in the house give different info re the weather directly outside. The worst is my child's phone which has its language set to Mandarin (the only substantive difference between their phone and our phones). Their Weather app is usually way off from our phones. None of the phones match the info given by NWS.

Yup. I agree.

Note that CNCF's Distribution (formerly Docker's Registry) includes support for backing a registry with Cloudfront signed URLs that pull from S3. [1]

I use Firefox bookmarks and use FF sync to make them available on all platforms. For organization, I keep them in a weird, organically grown folder structure that makes sense to me. If I really can't find something I use bookmark search on desktop Firefox. I occasionally make backups to my file server when I remember. It's an 80/20 solution that works well enough.

Roujin Z is really fun.

I hope this doesn't become a more widely used repo attack vector: Abuse repo maintainers until one or more fold. Fork the repo and become the New Maintainer That Saves The Day. At a later time, insert attack code.

I'm going to say "downish" but not "burst". I and a lot of other people I know are getting a lot of benefit from using LLMS to sketch and refine code more quickly.

Also, for joint investment accounts, look into a JTROS account (Joint Tenancy with Right of Survivorship)

My pet theory is that outside of the recent tech salary bubble decade, anyone with a "normal" salary in the US can't really get ahead without at least investing in market index funds/ETFs. Otherwise, all an employee gets is time-for-money pay (which is constantly under pressure as a business cost) with little if any upside from high industry profits. Either that or play the startup equity lottery.

This is like Luxottica owning optometrists offices, eyewear providers like Lenscrafters, and Eyemed vision insurance.

Unfortunately, modern office buildings are proving difficult to convert to housing because of how they're constructed combined with code standards for housing (like required windows). Re Fed bailout, I suppose the Feds could fund tearing down unused office space and building code-compliant housing :-/

Also try lifting weights. Done carefully to avoid injury, it can produce fairly quick body fitness changes that usually help during job interviews. Having usually done long distance rowing, I was surprised how fast my muscles tightened up and grew with one lifting session a week.

Technically, I think replacing NY with Delaware may be a better comparison - specifically with respect to the Delaware Court of Chancery in which most large US companies litigate business issues.

Marketplace's "How We Survive" did an episode on the Salton Sea.

The whole podcast is excellent.

This may end up pushing Amazon into a pay-to-play model for publishing. :-/

Conceptually similar to Japan's Iyashike genre.

I stopped doing Inbox Zero when I realized email search (O365 and Gmail in my case) is sufficient for my needs. I just don't have the energy to sort all my email, even with AI help. All I do lately is the occasional pass to delete large attachments and newsletters.

For a few years when I was younger, I got good at cracking eggs with a single hairline crack. I would then wash them, glue them back together, and then paint them with acrylic paint.

We're Knot Friends

I bought some CubeCola concentrate [1] which seems to be based on this. It's pretty good!

My favorite design is the reverse of the current $2 bill.

Emerging? Haven't highly skilled folks been targeting games and game DRM for decades?

Is there a list of named information security problems like "confused debuty"?

"omxplayer" on raspi. We use it with sshfs as a hacky "Chromecast".

It's more manual, but I love that "sudo systemctl hibernate" works reliably on my X1 Carbon Gen6.
