I don't get this at all. Isn't your fridge much smaller than your counter space?
From my experience, this is not the case. Layoffs in the US (especially those in tech) are quite secret and quite sudden, which means the decision of whom to lay off is typically done at a sufficiently high level where they're generally clueless about individual performance.
There's a comment above about this: I'm sure New York City (or any other city, really) would love to sue Abbot. But suing a state would be much harder, and probably much lengthier. If there's even the threat of a lawsuit, most bus companies would at least think twice about accepting the job.
I actually found that I really like the "hot" scrolling so much better. On Reddit, everything I came across had ~hundreds of comments and everything was multiple hours old. I didn't feel like I could contribute at all. But here... it feels a lot smaller, and most of the "hot" posts are not rubbish, so I feel like I can actually contribute!
Love me some British shrub politics. The only socially respectable response for someone invading your property is a bit of tutting whenever they're nearby.
Also the "public right-of-way" in this country is incredible.
I used to love all the Marvel movies. and then I started watching one film and couldn't tell if I'd seen it already and didn't want to watch it if I hadn't... and then realised they're basically just identical stories player by different characters.
no reason to hit up the opening weekend if you're just going to watch a rerun.
The article title is correct, it just wasn't as much of a burn as you'd like. The calling out did happen, but was just a bit misplaced since Greene didn't explicitly make the offending statement.
Also Greene is dumb and I'm sure is still confused about what a founding father is.
I used to think the same thing: first three results or so are always ads, so just ignore. And then recently they've changed to be 90% ads even after the initial few. It's hard to find something that someone hasn't paid to display :(
This is my favourite part of the whole ridiculous parade. For a good two weeks or so all my meetings with US colleagues are just chaos.
I'm fine with keeping the time change every so often as long as they can program my 2-year old alarm clock to also give me an extra hour of sleep when it happens.
Looks great! Did you at least get to buy a few new tools out of it as well?
Not using metric is so much more fun:
- water freezes at 32, boils at 212
- 16 cups in 1 gallon (both standard units of measurement)
- 1 (US) cup of water is 8 (US) oz
- 1 (US) cup of water is 14.4375in^3
Makes your maths so much more exciting!!
This is a great scale. Let's solve all the arguments about temperature and instead just create a "pleasantness scale". Could probably even market this and sell a "personalised pleasantness scale" and you pass it out to your friends when you meet them.
I mean, the temperature 0 was assigned because it was the lowest temperature that winter in Fahrenheit's town, and the "powers of two" was only chosen because it was simple to mark degree lines on his instrument. Feels quite arbitrary to me...
