The opening paragraphs seem to imply that the awards were withheld based on race.

When you get into the meat of the article, though, it makes it more clear that the school just forwarded a paper cert to the kids, and didn’t make a big deal about it. And parents are complaining because the school didn’t make a big deal out of it or get it to students “fast enough” to apply for some early admission stuff.

It’s been a while, but I remember most of those “National Merit” type things to be not very important or relevant. It’s just based on your PSAT score.

Oh great, now I get to sit next to someone in a Zoom meeting for 2 hours.

It’s possible that (A) smokers are less likely to get Covid AND ALSO that (B) taking up smoking still has more downsides, making it not recommendable as an actual treatment.

Just because A is true doesn’t mean it follows smoking is a useful or recommended treatment. But it might lead to insights that drive future treatments.

Fountain of youth?

Lost City of Gold?

What is the puzzle?

From the article, it sounds like they were following the law.

State legislators changed the law to get him his car back.

Seconded. I have a Khaki King and I love it. I wear it almost every day I’m working.

In my town, if you live within a mile of the school, you don’t get bus service. It’s assumed you will walk

I think this misses the point.

In the 1960s the “best of breed” entertainment (like Disney) was a available to middle class families. They also had the option of going to a cheap state fair, or local theatre, or minor league baseball.

Now, the middle class can’t afford those “best of breed” entertainment venues like they used to.

Yeah, some better examples that I use on a regular basis:

  1. Take out the trash on Mondays
  2. Pay the credit card bill on the 5th of every month
  3. Get a haircut every 5 weeks
  4. Pay the water bill every 3 months, etc

Having those sorts of things in my recurring To Do list are very helpful to ensure they don't get forgotten.

Could it possibly be some sort of aftermarket Remote Start?

That’s not a tracking device, and those are pretty common aftermarket additions.

Are you firing the person or persons who grossly mismanaged your books?

If not, it’s going to come off as pretty hollow.

Why do you want to collect resumes?

Couldn't this just be a list?

I tried this exact thing when my wife was going to have a baby.

None of the hospitals within 100 miles, the doctors, or the the insurance company would give me so much as an estimate, and this is for something that they do every day.

Don’t confuse support for one provision to mean support for the entire bill.

If you scroll down in the same poll a few questions you will see:

“To what extent do you support or oppose the following items in the bill? Allowing parents to sue school districts over alleged violations of sexual orientation and gender identity discussions in schools”

Support 41% Oppose 43%

> So the knowledge required to setup that and hardware is worth around 695$ per month.

That's an extremely cheap price to pay if you had to hire someone to do it.

That’s 10% of the employee base.

If half of those transferred locations, that means 95% are coming back to the office.

Any way to access the assignments without a Caltech login?

Out of the blue, I got a contract to play minor league baseball somewhere in the Midwest.

Sadly, it was a typo in the email address :(

I had an intern once who wrote similar code. They confused 12 hour and 24 hour clocks, so the code would break after lunch.

Unfortunately, the intern only worked the mornings, so it took several days of back and forth before the bug could be finally put to rest.

Bonus. I solved todays already, so with the redirect I was able to solve it in 1

Agreed. For me, the logistics of having a dedicated office just down the road far outweigh the costs of the commute, and I like the mental and physical separation of home and work.

But, if that commute was 45 mins, or if I had a larger living space and a worse onsite location, I can guarantee that my opinion would reverse.

Unpopular opinion, but I was not a big fan. It was mainly because my house lacked a dedicated, private office where I could work, compared to my real office.

My living space isn’t that big, but I’ve got a great office at the job. Big desk, big screens, giant whiteboard, and it’s just around the corner, so commute is minimal.

Interesting, I’ve been burned so many times, I always skip any result tagged as an ad. I can’t be the only one.

So, you want people to buy your security software, and you show how good your software is by abusing credentials you found through scanning?

That’s a bold move, let’s see how it works out for you.

The article makes no mention of the employee making any public statements or disclosures

One thing that sounded weird in that sentence, who is doing the arresting? Company employees?

Do railway employees have arresting authority?

How much does it cost to get a list of everyone's salary at my company?

How do you add things like emojis and inline images?

I don’t see anything in the text that maps to either in the output?
