Pro 11 is still subject to bullshit ads. Prefer 11 Enterprise licenses so that ads can be completely turned off.

MDE plan 2 is no assurance of security. There was an incident where Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, pushed out definitions that caused the removal of many valid app shortcuts freaking users out that all of their apps were deleted. This is not an isolated incident. MDE makes sweeping changes to millions of machines that Microsoft appears to barely test at all.

You forgot to unfurl the course sails and get out and push.

The mindset of that pilot inherently dangerous and complacent. A friend of mine was a casual GA pilot in college. He was constantly practicing failure modes and making contingency plans such as engine failure at different points of takeoff and practicing stall recovery at various speeds, altitudes, bank angles, and AoAs.

This year's El Niño storms were as bad as those in the early 90's. Back then, I recall a storm where most fences were blown down and the dining room window pane glass flexed and bowed in visibly, I thought it would eventually break.

We're poised to experience a repeat of last year and supposedly a La Niña next year.

Bless her heart. I hope she gets early seating like my mom regardless of the airline's "Y2K" error.

Repeated layoffs: how to tell your other employees that you hate them and want them to leave also.

These damn investors and MBB consultants put a bug in managements' ear that costs must be cut everywhere while mindlessly sabotaging core profit centers and essential infrastructure in myriad indirect ways.

Kinetic energy != momentum.

KE = ½ m v^2. Moon 3.8e28 J

Perhaps kamikaze drones render large armor obsolete.

The lack of upvoting of and discussion about this article here reminds me of the largely empty donation bins around Silicon Valley during the holidays. These are indictments of a vastly rich and unequal society that fundamentally lacks compassion, solidarity, and empathy.

They should rename it "Idiocracy." More untested, evidence-free sociological experimentation on kids with subjective grading geared towards increasing biases against merit and arbitrary grade inflation while lowering standards. This reeks of the stench of abolishing phonics all over again, but on both the input side of eliminating work and on the output side of putting thumbs on the scale of how grades are measured. It's not outside of the realm of possibility that universities will gradually refuse to accept under-prepared high school graduates who received substandard educations through no fault of their own, and/or will instead water down their own grading standards (greater breadth and depth than Ivy grade inflation) to keep their stats up, leading to a less prepared, less rigorous, and more ignorant demographic of college graduates. For over 60 years, California's state education apparatus has allowed arbitrary meddling by so-called "experts"; this should be forbidden and replaced with legitimate, evidence-based decision-making overseeing statewide standards and publishing best practices that demonstrably work.

PS: End NCLBA. It was an abject failure mandated by know-nothing, arrogant neocons who went on an ideological crusade to squander resources and harm education with their "help".

Often whenever someone quotes how many years/decades of experience they have, I then begin to wonder if they have become complacent and/or adverse to learning, improvements, and change.

PS: I would ask: "What kind of biscuits? Do they have low glycemic and high satiety indexes?"
