We have one kid, one one the way, and then it's time for a Balls Voyage party (or snipped but still equipped, if you prefer).

Whatever you do, do not touch that one BNC cable. Just trust me on this.

Theme/intro sequence is great IMHO.

Maybe it's referring to the musical, The Sound Of Music?

You're living in the past, urda...

Remote backup server would be my suggestion.

Configure it with a VPN to talk to your home network and set it up at a trusted friend's or family's place.

I do this with a raspberry pi and an external HDD that takes daily/weekly/monthly snapshots, with daily rsync. Works nicely for me.

If the minimum wage was a comfortable living wage --- like it should be, in my and many other folks' opinion --- then it wouldn't matter. One person's excess isn't a problem, unless it's at the expense of someone else (which, you know, is kinda the case...).

An SEO specialist walks into a bar, saloon, watering hole, place to get drinks, neighborhood bar, dive bar, best mixed drinks, beer on tap...

I wonder if the cookie cutter wheels are generally better at traction in the snow, all else being equal?

I would be very surprised if such a fork would diverge from Linux. I would guess that this would be little more than a branch with (most likely) support for Russian hardware. Just my hunch.

A legitimate hard fork doesn't seem particularly smart to me, but what do I know...

The beautiful thing about this is that for both the pro- and anti-systemd crowds, it only reinforces their respective opinions.

(Aside, I used to use postgres for date/interval calculations...)

Awesome bandwidth to be sure, but I do think there is a difference between data transfer to RAM (such as network traffic) vs. traffic purely from one location to another (station wagon with tapes/747 with SD cards/etc.).

For the latter, actually using the data in any meaningful way is probably limited to read time of the media, which is likely slow.

But yeah, my go-to would be micro SD cards on a plane :)

Fun fact, the (rough) conversion efficiency of calories to mechanical joules in the human body (separate from the mechanical to electrical you're referring to) is about 25% --- but this is about the same factor as going from calories to joules! So, for a human to put out 13.5 kJ of energy would require about 13.5 food calories (kilocalories).

Stock --- at least, RSUs --- is AFAIK taxed like supplemental income ( https://www.harnesswealth.com/articles/what-you-need-to-know-about-restricted-stock-units-rsus/ ), which is very similar to regular income. Stock options are different though, and maybe this is what you're referring to --- I think (???) options can be beneficial to the recipient from a tax perspective vs. other compensation but not an expert...

And then there are capital gains, which is a different, but related, story...

Unclear from article (at least, for me) how much of this is existing stock grants only now vesting, vs. approved raises/new grants/etc.

Not that it particularly matters --- big compensation at the top with tumult for the folks at the bottom is...not a good look.

Step one: join local bike coalition.

Step two: become a single-iseue voter and only vote for their endorsements.

Only half joking here.

It's not perfect in my city, but it is getting better, which is awesome to see --- in the past 7 or so years that I've lived here it has gotten way way better. The pandemic helped a ton (slow streets implemented in a really great way among other things).

Oh no! What will Stanford, CalTech, Berkeley, Harvey Mudd, UCLA, and other California schools do!

Pressure cooker stuff (Instant Pot here, but anything works)!

Beans are dirt cheap and homemade refried-style beans are fantastic. Don't be shy with the oil (neutral/canola, avocado, refined coconut all great). MSG also helps. Play around with pinto and black ratios (or go more exotic!).

Add to that some Mexican style rice --- toast in a pan (before putting in rice cooker) with tomato paste, veggie bouillon, salsa, whatever, and then cook in rice cooker as usual. I like jasmine the best for this.

Can't go wrong with Mexican style beans and rice IMHO. (And in addition, you can feed them to dinner guests if you like --- who doesn't like to build their own burritos?).
