You blame Elon when he's bowing to Jewish pressure.

Beautiful blog design as well. Worth the price of admission.

That's what sober people say about hanging out with those imbibing. You're not wrong tho.

Jackson wrote in a lengthy Facebook post that the incident left him “damaged for life,” despite him miraculously not being struck by the officers’ gunfire.

He said he was “scared to death,” and that he leaned over and played dead “to prevent getting shot in the head.”

“Mentally, I’m not OK,” he said. “I haven’t been the same since and I don’t think this feeling I have will ever change.”

Once the officers stopped firing, Jackson said they forced him to show his hands, but he couldn’t raise them as ordered because he was still in handcuffs on allegations he’d stolen his girlfriend’s car. While doing this, he said he was staring down the barrel of an officer’s gun, so he closed his eyes and prayed he’d survive the ordeal.

“I eventually found a way to rest my cuffed hands on the shattered window area to show that I wasn’t armed. A few minutes later they swarmed the car and slammed me on the ground to search me,” he said. “The image I can’t get out of my head is seeing how bad my mom was hurt/crying right before I got into the ambulance.”

Its not likely that they are truly that incompetent; its probably free (overtime) money/hazard pay or something.

An apartment could build an enclosed courtyard for outdoor space.

Its a real shame our cities aren't multi-generational; it can be done, eg Tokyo. For the most part people move to the 'burbs when they have children, which is fine, but it shouldn't be the only option.

I knew the people who made GrandCare. Its some non-invasive monitors in the house -- basically the point is if your mom fell down and can't get up -- it should detect it and alert you. I've not used it, but they've been in business for a while now so I assume its alright.

Don't forget financially, there's a lot of elder scams.

His new venture, Flow, funded by a16z is more interesting. How to incentivize social/community for an apartment building -- instead of the status quo where no one speaks to each other.

Wii sports, scrapbooking, card games, board games.

Its not accurate unless you tax the sale price. An estimate could be off by 10s of millions in the case of $100m dollar properties.

That stupid 2s delayed "email nag popup" is the bane of the web.

Wealth is not that easy to calculate. What is a Basquiat painting worth? The worth of Mar-a-lago is currently the subject of a lawsuit.

Its February... do you live in the north? Life seems better in the south: more sun, more outdoor activities, more vitamin D. Spain, Italy, Greece, the hospitality of the American South. They eat dinner later, stay up later, talk more and will invite you over for dinner #swedengate

I was just in Florida musing the difficulty of having a BBQ in Minnesota... 12 weeks of summer * 2 days people don't work = 24 days... next set of constraints: no rain, your friends are available ie. not going to weddings, kids sports or family events (things which are very booked in the summer)

Very low-effort blog-spam (change your browser settings to Japanese!). I clicked on it because I am expecting big things from LLMs in the space, but this is not it.

Motion is relative.

What's considered 'normal' is also changing fast.

Changing a child's gender, for example, used to be considered an un-reasonable position, but now to be against it is: extremist, far-right, etc.

I used midjourney + a card printer to make new cards for Fireball Island.

I'd add a video demo walkthrough illustrating someone using it to accomplish something. Remove the word proprietary since its assumed unless open-source is specifically mentioned.

You find somebody who already did it and interrogate them about path-optimization until they are sick of you (what to learn in what order, what books, etc.)

bad meeting prep isnt obviously productizable

ikea has cheap ones

idk what exactly you're looking for, but it probably contains the acronym BIFL (buy it for life) in the comments.

All apartments above 2 or 3 stories need two sets of staircases and everywhere else its 6-stories.

rep farming.

Young companies need generalists; their folksy euphemism is "we all wear many hats around here". Established companies want 10-years experience in some highly specific domain.

There was some old post about a job interviewee at FB getting treated poorly because he thought his linux experience should in some way count toward the Solaris requirement (it didn't).

Small companies get acquired when money is cheap; the acquirer generally doesn't want the programmers just the income stream so they keep a skeleton crew around until they can hand it off to their in-house team.
