In a similar punk/pop-punk vein, I saw The Matches are doing a few reunion shows and found myself diving headfirst into their 3 albums again. I’ve always thoroughly enjoyed them.

As with many things nutrition related, there’s often not a direct line between the contents of a food and the resulting concentration in our blood stream. Foods with cholesterol do not directly cause high cholesterol in the blood it’s the same with purines and uric acid.
Speaking as someone who has/had gout, my weight and how much sugar I eat is really the only thing that correlates with my uric acid results.
I’ve eaten 70g of lentils and 170g of cauliflower for breakfast everyday, 100g of spinach for lunch, and often asparagus and/or broccoli for dinner. Apparently these are veggies that are high in purines and “should” result in a raised uric acid level, but I’ve actually seen my levels reduced. A study can be found here.
If your family is concerned about uric acid (which is valid as high levels can lead to adverse health outcomes), I’d recommend getting a blood test and seeing what your levels are actually at and what foods actually drive that number in you.
I hope he has success. He was great under Vic Fangio his first year or 2, then fell off a cliff and was hot garbage for the rest.
Bob Newhart, everybody!
This appears to be related to the same Snowflake breach that compromised Ticketmaster. I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about more companies impacted by this.
Agreed, but living through the 2016 years, I did see how a groundswell of public opinion can sway the priorities of congress. It just takes a lot of people pushing.
The president absolutely should be beating the drum on these things. But I guess I’m focused on the levers that we as citizens can pull to avoid that feeling of powerlessness.
Agreed. However swapping 2 judges makes it a 5-4 liberal majority. Like you said, that’s only a start but would have huge ramifications.
These ProPublica reports need to be shared almost as much as project 2025. It’s horrible blatant corruption that needs a light shone on it. And the message is clear, another 4 years of Donald Trump could land us up to 3 more justices just like this. We’d be digging a hole we’d be stuck in for the next 40 years.
This also begs the question of what do we do about Thomas? Unfortunately with a republican majority in congress, they’d have to see him as so toxic to their election that they’d have to make the choice to remove him (less than 0% chance). That leaves us with only one option: vote vote vote! This isn’t just a Trump Biden election. This is for the ability to hold people accountable using congress and the senate too.
And let’s say we see a blue wave and we have enough to begin impeachment process against Thomas and/or Alito. Our job isn’t done then either. We need to raise hell with our representatives in government to make sure they know that it’s unacceptable to have such blatant corruption in our courts and that holding them accountable should be one of the highest priorities. That’s the only way (within our system) to start making change happen. It’s slow and frustrating at times, and it requires a constant commitment, but it still is possible when our reps feel enough pressure.
This is one of the most annoying (dangerous in this case) trends of the AI rush. It has potential for incredible value, but that only depends on the people instituting it and the structures they have in place to ensure it’s successful.
I could see a world where the algorithm could receive input on the patients condition each day and modify its recommendations on that; like a Bayesian inference model. But that requires a statistician with some careful thought to set it all up, and executives wouldn’t be able to reduce headcount by several dozen because some guy sold them a black box that solves all their problems.
What about the cloud engineer job do you dislike the most? I’ve been in the field for 7-8 years now and still find a lot of joy. Granted, the most frustrating parts of my job is lack of influence I have over the decisions that get made, but I moved to a team lead position to at least have a little say.
Wouldn’t that be funny if he just ditches his son now.
Every time he put a quarter in something I chuckled. Except nowadays it would all be subscription based with forced auto renew.
Once you can lift over 100, you reach enlightenment and never miss the hole.
This was created by a bot, who got it from a Reddit post that was also created by a bot. So I don’t really know who I’m trying to respond to here…
But people, have some self reflection here. If anyone is so paranoid about toxicity that they feel the need to make a guide like this, then the toxic one may be them.
People are people. Everyone probably displays hints of these traits at times depending on how their day was, or something that’s been hiding beneath the surface. But it’s more nuanced and I can’t say I’ve ever met a single (consequential) person in my life that I would define by any of these categories.
I’m curious what they mean by “failure.” I read the article but didn’t get a clear definition. Isn’t one of the expected outcomes of agile the ability to experiment rapidly and move on when the experiment fails?
So what if you fail 300% more? If you’re able to get 300% more ideas to the stage where you can test their viability, then it’s a success.
The main guy looks like a bald Will Forte and I could totally imagine him doing a live action version of this.
I applaud OP for making an effort to get involved locally but can sympathize with their struggles. Local government elections typically have a more new candidates that don’t have a track record of experience to go back on. Additionally, there are a handful of boilerplate campaign promises that you’ll see over and over again (smart spending, lower taxes, etc). I’ve personally found some success with the following approaches:
Even if you don’t get a ton of info from the candidate themselves, it’s still worth it looking at their website and seeing what they choose to make the centerpiece of their campaign.
Look up your local Democratic and Republican Party websites and see who they endorse. Often, even if a candidate is unaffiliated, the local political parties will have some insight as to who THEY would prefer. That tells you something too.
Try to attend local government events. You’ll learn a TON by attending a city council or school board meeting. In my local area, I’ve seen representatives half asleep or reading newspapers during discussions. At the very least, look at who takes the position seriously. Additionally, try to see who is asking smart questions, and conveys that they understand the subject matters well.
I think we should be encouraging more people for get involved locally. That’s how grassroots efforts turn into more options nationally.
I’m interpreting OPs original comment in a way that makes me think he doesn’t entirely trust what the candidates themselves say. I think that says something about where our society is today.

I understand that it’s not my money, but I’m struggling to understand why all teams don’t go crazy buying insurance.
There’s a hard cap each year ($255 million) and each team shares revenue from tv and merch (~$400 million).
For a 53 man roster, you could pay an extra $75 mil at the most to get several million in extra available cap space the following year. That could mean the difference in being able to upgrade a couple crucial positions and making a run at the Super Bowl.
Once again, it’s not my money, but if you wanted to win at all costs, this would be a pretty effective way to do it.
