Obama was a dynasty? I must’ve missed those other Obama elections.

While I 100% agree, his own surrogates like Peter Navarro are trying to distance themselves from Tony’s set. This means that Trumps team at least thinks this is a problem.

Additionally, I don’t think there exists a realistic single event that will cause Trump supporters to leave in droves, but there are hundreds of thousands of Americans with Puerto Rican heritage between Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Maybe this encourages 10% of them to go vote if they were originally planning to sit this one out. 50k more votes for Harris would likely make the difference.

Even though her voters can help elect Harris, I’m so sick of Nikki Haley and her spinelessness.

She spent her entire primary campaign saying that Trump is unfit to be president, then once she was eliminated, she immediately said she’d vote for him (probably to try and get a cabinet position). Now that it’s clear he hates her and she has no shot at joining his administration, her current position is an illogical word salad that’s a result of her taking both sides and being backed into a corner.

Aggregating some information in this comment based on what I’ve read throughout the internet.

1. Authorities have identified the vehicle of the one in Oregon (and likely Washington) and probably know who’s behind it at this point. AP News
2. Authorities have arrested the person responsible for the ballot fires in Phoenix ABC Phoenix
3. There was a conversation on Truth Social from a user named Elwoodblues50 that suggested doing just this. I have no idea how coordinated it was, but it definitely sounds like something that has been going around right wing circles for a bit. sorry Reddit link
4. These ballot boxes have measures to protect the ballots in the case of fire. One of the ballot boxes had up to 100 ballots destroyed, the others were in the single digits.
5. Oregon and Washington both have websites that allow you to check the status of your ballot. If you know anyone in who may have been impacted by this, have them check the websites and request a new ballot if theirs wasn’t accepted. Oregon. Washington

It looks like those clowns in congress did it again! What a bunch of clowns.

I call the washed one bitey

I understand that it’s not my money, but I’m struggling to understand why all teams don’t go crazy buying insurance.

There’s a hard cap each year ($255 million) and each team shares revenue from tv and merch (~$400 million).

For a 53 man roster, you could pay an extra $75 mil at the most to get several million in extra available cap space the following year. That could mean the difference in being able to upgrade a couple crucial positions and making a run at the Super Bowl.

Once again, it’s not my money, but if you wanted to win at all costs, this would be a pretty effective way to do it.

In a similar punk/pop-punk vein, I saw The Matches are doing a few reunion shows and found myself diving headfirst into their 3 albums again. I’ve always thoroughly enjoyed them.

As with many things nutrition related, there’s often not a direct line between the contents of a food and the resulting concentration in our blood stream. Foods with cholesterol do not directly cause high cholesterol in the blood it’s the same with purines and uric acid.

Speaking as someone who has/had gout, my weight and how much sugar I eat is really the only thing that correlates with my uric acid results.

I’ve eaten 70g of lentils and 170g of cauliflower for breakfast everyday, 100g of spinach for lunch, and often asparagus and/or broccoli for dinner. Apparently these are veggies that are high in purines and “should” result in a raised uric acid level, but I’ve actually seen my levels reduced. A study can be found here.

If your family is concerned about uric acid (which is valid as high levels can lead to adverse health outcomes), I’d recommend getting a blood test and seeing what your levels are actually at and what foods actually drive that number in you.

I hope he has success. He was great under Vic Fangio his first year or 2, then fell off a cliff and was hot garbage for the rest.

Bob Newhart, everybody!

This appears to be related to the same Snowflake breach that compromised Ticketmaster. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about more companies impacted by this.

What about the cloud engineer job do you dislike the most? I’ve been in the field for 7-8 years now and still find a lot of joy. Granted, the most frustrating parts of my job is lack of influence I have over the decisions that get made, but I moved to a team lead position to at least have a little say.

Every time he put a quarter in something I chuckled. Except nowadays it would all be subscription based with forced auto renew.

I like this scatter plot. If you really want to get freaky with it, you should take into account the “protein digestibility-corrected amino acid scores.” Things like eggs and whey are 100%, beans are usually in the high 70’s, and peanuts are actually down at near 50%.

So for nutrition’s sake, not all protein sources are created equal, and it makes sense that if you are trying to get adequate protein at the lowest price, you also want to get sources where you can eat the least of it to satisfy the protein requirements of your body.

Once you can lift over 100, you reach enlightenment and never miss the hole.

It’s a fairytale town, isn’t it? How’s a fairytale town not somebody’s fucking thing? How can all those canals and bridges and cobbled streets and those churches, all that beautiful fucking fairytale stuff, how can that not be somebody’s fucking thing, eh?

This was created by a bot, who got it from a Reddit post that was also created by a bot. So I don’t really know who I’m trying to respond to here…

But people, have some self reflection here. If anyone is so paranoid about toxicity that they feel the need to make a guide like this, then the toxic one may be them.

People are people. Everyone probably displays hints of these traits at times depending on how their day was, or something that’s been hiding beneath the surface. But it’s more nuanced and I can’t say I’ve ever met a single (consequential) person in my life that I would define by any of these categories.

I’m curious what they mean by “failure.” I read the article but didn’t get a clear definition. Isn’t one of the expected outcomes of agile the ability to experiment rapidly and move on when the experiment fails?

So what if you fail 300% more? If you’re able to get 300% more ideas to the stage where you can test their viability, then it’s a success.

The main guy looks like a bald Will Forte and I could totally imagine him doing a live action version of this.
