Some of the stuff being announced about space seems to me like scientists restating stuff we should've known 50 years ago. Like, our star has more than 2 planets around it. If that's the case with lots of stars, then it's obvious there would be of a higher number of planets going "rogue".

Same here. I recently had an interview where I was 100% qualified for the Job, it went swimmingly good most of the interview, but I realized afterward there was a discrepancy in terminology that made me look like I didn't have experience in what they were asking for.

The problem was that, with my experience and resume listing those things clearly, and the company in site need to fill this position, why didn't the interviewer ask a single question, even challenging my resume based on my answers.

I get it could've been a thousand other things, but this single exchange really stood out to me as something I would've delved deeper into in the interviews I've conducted.

In my opinion, as douchy as it sounds, the company lost out on not hiring me. They still have the posting up 3 weeks later, and wanted to spin someone up in 30 days because of a 4 month work backlog. Had the person asked maybe test more questions, they would've had someone in that spot.

I think we did this a few months ago in Albuquerque. They've formed an unarmed alternative police force thing.

Fuck this. I don't like Tik too and WeChat, I don't think people should use them, and I don't trust China, but we don't need the government telling us what software we can use. This is not good.

I'm doing 4 10 hour days a week and can swap my day off for whatever day when I want. That's almost what you said, but without a pay cut lol.

I use vim because its got :sp/:vsp, can edit remote files over scp, :E, :earlier, and now :term, plus so many options in vimrc. I don't think I really even need tmux w/ it anymore.

meanwhile I typed a draft of an email with links in it and 2 seconds after saving it got an email from Mozilla saying "stop sending yourself links via email!". I'm not OK with that.
