Aah, I thought you were hinting at malfeasance by TM. Lumpers girl, is hardly mentioned by Farina without dubbies also indicated; secretarial skills hinted at at least once.

TM evidently believes that in this century a Landy is fated to be a Chelsea tractor; from YT videos (which only show inanimate gear, not sheep or goats or anything practical) it appears they expect that one ought to rinse whatever one is transporting off before stowing it in the boot — completely backwards. There is a very boomer joke, probably at least fifty years old by now, which involves a (male, of course) boss who interviews 3 (female, of course) secretarial candidates, and maybe there's some WPM involved, but he also gives them each a pile of cash as part of the interview. One goes to the track, one invests in the overnight market, etc. So which one does he hire? The one with the most wood in front of the hut.

- gradschoolfail 2y agoBtw, i wasnt suggesting that you pair HN with EtOH like tptacek does — loading up on a few yt rhymes should achieve the same effect for you? Conviviality without killing any brain cells.. Blonde is americain? The tattooed guy, alpine accent?
- tptacek 2y agoHey. I paired a block party with HN. I do not generally pair HN and drinking!
- 082349872349872 2y agoIf Herodotus is to be believed, ancient persians might've read their HN replies twice, either sober then drunk, or drunk then sober, before hitting the "reply" button. https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0126%3Abook%3D1%3Achapter%3D133 https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext...
- tptacek 2y agoHerodotus can suck it. I think I prefer plan (A) though!
- gradschoolfail 2y agoAah pls pardon the calumny! (I enjoyed the few times when you were somewhat explicit about taking a choice cut of the truth, presumably encouraged by diluted ethanol) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28178181 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28178181
- tptacek 2y agosecret tip: if I'm posting between 6PM and 10PM on Friday or Saturday, (a) make fun of me for posting on Friday or Saturday night, and (b) i've probably had something high-proof to drink. I only drink on weekends, which is awesome and everyone should try it.

- 082349872349872 2y agoBoth austrian: Gina Lampl and Albert-Mario Lampel The singers rotate pretty frequently, but the core of their line up has stayed reasonably constant since they were much younger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuMUOiaHPA4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuMUOiaHPA4
- gradschoolfail 2y agohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVuE61wqeoA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVuE61wqeoA Hill accent of styria? Could not find one for Gina tho
- 082349872349872 2y agoGini sings in english, but it looks like she's also Styrian: https://ginimusic.at/presse/ https://ginimusic.at/presse/ Did you get to/understand the bra story from the Radio Melody interview? (AML was sticking to high german for the interview; for a better example of his dialect listen to the intro to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSwQ1icECNg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSwQ1icECNg , handily subtitled in what we call "writing german") [I can't tell but suspect the tractor there, despite being in Deere livery, is a Steyr as well] Incidentally, Radio Melody also interviewed Gölä*, which gives me an excuse to point you at the yodel-crossover version of "Indian": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLTLlGCknUw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLTLlGCknUw Lagniappe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltXpMuH8SI4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltXpMuH8SI4 * this is the local word for, not shit in general, but specifically the slurry with which fields are fertilised. Durrenmatt also uses it in "The Visit" (1956), but names his town Güllen — dialect being oral and not written, orthography often has a few local conventions but otherwise, as english orthography once was, is up to personal taste.
- gradschoolfail 2y agoWow, what does the Missus think? If i cant tell a thick styrian accent from a lowland accent (of the interviewer?) i should leave the understanding of cultures via natural language to more competent folks :) (To my nondefence, dialect means accent in England, e,g, one would say that the young E2R spoke a Saxon dialect) Anyways, to try & adhere to a proper division of labor (mine lot is to safely dispose of spilled ink) herewith is summarized my latest attempt at designori integration (more to unpack moving forwards) How to effectively fund research from the bottom-up? To improve on VDH, in the horizonal Union, your research pays the hoi polloi to be entertained! It is said Mondragonese labor hires capital, can we refine (i,e, “sophisticate the sophistry”) this! Proles hire technicians who hire fonders who hire growth engineers who hire capital! Keep candidates few & condorcet becomes ideal! (Romer & Veblen have a common thread that human capital have a tendency to be destroyed in the OC.. perhaps you’d like to reply to the hot thread on ShowRunning, while i further refine my understanding of designori in the HolyWoods) Edit: it is my understanding that present day academia favors destruction of human capital.
