Probably a lot less fake job postings these days. Salary requirements in some states, and PPP "loans" not needing paid back anymore.

This is why I don't watch anymore. Don't want my kids playing football either. I mean if they really want to I will be supportive, but I am trying to expose them to different things.

Reply to comment by Jrj84105 in TIL that Martha's Vineyard constitutes the County of Dukes County. This redundant name is due to the fact that it was formed as Dukes County in New York before being transferred to Massachusetts and reincorporated under its current name in 1695. by nxdat
The financially better off branch probably had kids at a later age after they or their husbands were educated and started careers. There are advantages to this, and it makes building multigenerarional wealth easier. I know plenty of 30 something year old grandparents, teen pregnancy follows a trend in working class families. By the time I had my first kid, my classmates that had children right out of high-school were showing me their grandkids photos. A 2:1 ratio in generational age gap seems pretty plausable. Also possible, her branch just tended to be the youngest siblings and yours tended to be the oldest siblings and I am just pulling things out of thin air.

Ha.. you ever worked for the government? People become complicit.. budgets get allocated unevenly.. contractors generally follow rules to keep contracts, but actual government.. not always.

You aren't wrong. Reality vs security theater. Former employees know how to game the system. Short of a security guard being at every entrance, people will piggy-back on another badge holder. Just be carrying a pile of boxes, and avoid the by-the-book types. You already know who would let it slide in another dept, excuse you have seen them do it before.

Great! Now make a fake email and bitch to corporate as if you were a customer. Mention the manager you told about it on seperate visits if the boss is a jerk.

The one that stores your current GPS coordinates and inertial sensor data does, to be fair it is probably on the server side of things depending on the apps installed.

Reply to comment by CircaSixty8 in TIL that until 2012, when they switched to a bacterial source, Roche Pharmaceuticals used up to 90% of the world's annual star anise crop to produce shikimic acid, a chemical intermediate used in the synthesis of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) by Kintpuash-of-Kush
A chemical intermediate does not mean a medicine, just a chemical needed to make one chemical into another that is a medicine... Pho is freaking fantastic though.

You can buy compressors with a large enough tank at most hardware stores. Won't be cheap, but in the long haul it may be worth it. The tanks are roughly the size of a traditional gas water heater. Wait for a sale.

Yeah, they are among the ones that chose profit over people. Government is supposed to regulate business for a reason and not the other way around. PURE capitalism without healthy government regulation is evil. Regulatory capture is basically the same thing with extra steps.

If the numbers are to be believed many more lives were saved by those actions. Even more could have been if we had acted sooner. They preferred mass death of the elderly and middle-aged over personal sacrifice IMHO. I think that makes them weak willed and weak minded. Those are the ones that knew what was up. I can forgive the ones that were manipulated into believing that there was nothing we could do or that it was overblown. They don't question what they are told by their guys and are generally kinda just trying to live life.
