I'm surprised this is news. I would assume this happens multiple times per day on nearly every airline?

That’s alarming. Do you have any sources where I can learn more about this?

Anyone know what tool they used to make the flow diagrams? They seem to be text based and might be superior to mermaid.

Does anyone have solid recommendations of reliable household appliance brands? If all the consumer brands are shit, would it be worth going commercial?

If you are looking for a really good book about the history of water in America(especially dams), check out "Cadillac Desert" by Marc Reisner.

I am in a similar (age, mobility) situation and I got into indoor rock climbing about a year ago. Since then I have lost weight and gained a ton of muscle. I go around twice a week.

I always hated going to the gym because it was boring, but rock climbing is fun and challenging, like solving a puzzle. Also, I find I work a bit harder because it triggers your animal instincts of not wanting to fall. I do mostly top rope climbing(bouldering scares me). If you have a rock gym nearby, setup one or two trial sessions and see if you like it.
