This is quite literally the worst case scenario for them. I've been morbidly curious what the knock-on effect of a meltdown in CMBS bonds and other securities would look like. As an aside, since employees are now responsible for their

One of my favorites: Sweetheart of the Rodeo. The Bryds were decidedly psychedelic, and for whatever reason let Gram Parsons make an album for them. Well worth the listen even if you're not into country music.

Fires are an important part of seed germination for some varieties of red woods. With semi rural developments, there has been a huge decline in naturally occurring wild fires and controlled burns. This article mentions nothing on forestry m

Yes, while WSL2 has some filesystem quirks, it works pretty darn well for what I do (ruby development). I picked up a 5 Y/O 2 CPU E5 v4 Xeon workstation for 300 bucks. I've sunk in an additional 400 for an SSD, RAM and GPU, and wh

What I'm talking about is "ACAB", Boogaloo, and other dehumanizing thinly veiled calls for violence against $PICKAGROUP. It's ramped way up recently: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=ACAB&a

It seems like there is some serious disinformation/psych ops working overtime across the internet right now; the tone is weirdly hostile. I would hope people would question the motivation of obviously divisive rhetoric, but it's c
