And for fuck’s sake don’t raw dog your phone to convenient USB chargers in airplanes, airports, or other public spaces.

Yes the argument can be made that airplanes may enjoy slightly better chain-of-custody type security, but fr the number of people I see who dgaf plugging their junk into USB brothels is wild.

Remember when the petroleum industry sold us disposable plastic bags as a way to “save the trees”?

It’s how I retain that resting heart rate of 112. I don’t even have to go to the gym anymore; I’m getting my cardio in just sitting here.

It’s a common trope, in the US at least. The gift can be different in different countries. In the Philippines other local-made snacks might be brought for teachers.

Every paper comes with an author appendix as cut-out scrabble tiles (scrambled) so readers assemble the names in the order they prefer.

Panna cotta. The pana cotta is the message.

Missed that

Philippines?

All the dicks. And the bag, to be certain that if he weasels his way out of eating the dicks, at least he’ll have to find a way to carry them around for a while.

SYAC: In the article, Altman doesn’t explain anything regarding what led to the board doing what they did, and asserts that he will wait for the new board to conduct an investigation.

Put the cost of things into terms of hours you would need to work to cover its cost. On an individual basis, you know very well how to gauge an hour of your working time, and inflationary effects will become apparent when there is something you used to buy routinely and suddenly find you have to work two or three hours to cover its cost.

4; microecon. Often when asked to solve cost minimization problems with supplied info, it states the problem can’t be solved, and that there might be a problem with the questions.

There are some limitations. I’ve asked some questions relating to my courses and it doesn’t always get it right.

It did! A lot of it was quite marginal, but on the whole it was all orchestrated nicely and worked pretty seamlessly.

I used to run a small business, and we did a great number of things (relative to our business size and industry) in order to facilitate sales. Every touch point was designed to minimize the friction between the guest and them spending money. Both subtle things and obvious things.

The marketing started as soon as one visited the website (tracking pixels and FB for re-marketing ads) or called for info (we would try to capture at least name and email for additional marketing—always with explicit permission: “May we have your email address so we can send you additional periodic information?”). We had phone call flows and maximum hold times (3 mins).

We retained detailed guest notes and information which we would use to tailor their following visits (manually; any kind of automation was beyond our technical ability at the time).

I’d have to spend some time thinking of all the other ways we did things. Most of which we implemented in a Disney Magic sort of way, in the sense that things are just sort of magically happening without the guest being concerned about it.

The salient argument was that the source location from the animal is not the wing (it’s the tender) and it already does not contain a bone, he continues: “we don’t ask for boneless tacos, or boneless cars.”

Aye, I did thank you for the correction.

According to Space.com in July 2023, there were 4,487 active Starlink satellites. 26 represents just over 0.5% of the total constellation. Considering it seems like a swarm-type system, 0.5% strikes me as simply the cost of doing business.

Edit: decimals.
