Chrome says "this site", no? Isn't it the tab you have in focus? I wonder what kind of person says 'Yes' to this prompt. It gives me the heebie jeebies.

I heard about a very incompetent engineer at the start of my career. Always asking dumb questions. Asking other people to create "sample projects" for her. She is now a principal PM manager where I work now. She has no idea I kn

Human beings aren't fundamentally rational. We have to work at it, because it's not in our nature. A thing to keep in mind is that expecting the systems humans built to act rationally at all times is perhaps expecting too much.

I would not be offended by the blood donation thing. They generalize based on administrative regions (Amazonas in this case) and not whether you visited a big developed city or not. I had a similar blood donation issue for visiting a parti

You've nailed the issue in the justice system. When the recipient of harassment has power, or the recipient is favored by those in power for whatever reason, the response is disproportionate. It shouldn't be so, but it is. It&#x

It may surprise you to learn that I lurk the comments section at Breitbart. The subtext of the articles is made clear there. There is plenty of distrust in LE and the legal system on the right. There is also plenty of people who believe i

The issues with the justice system are well documented. Please do not try to straw man what I am getting at. Certain people are arrested and detained far often than others, because of who they are and not what they did. Many positions in t

It breaks my heart that the governments with unlimited budgets who have hired the best and brightest will have to put in serious effort to get the bad guys, and potentially find it not worth it to casually spy on the whole world. I am just

Hate all you want. This is the level of Microsoft Scout at the moment. I tell it what sites to go to, and the information I am interested it, and it grabs it using Playwright. I am hoping I can get a self-host option working as well as thi

I still do not see ads on Facebook. But it also does not work most of the time with all the adblockers on. I hate that so many people I know use it for things.

I played a lot of worms in college. The shotgun was my weapon of choice - I would play with a ruler so I could snipe people across the level with it. The slippery surface physics meant that planning your shots to move around your opponent

I used to know some govvies who were FBI analysts. There are more foiled terrorism plots than get reported for sure. That is the word at least at the FBI as of maybe 15 years ago.

Yes. It is about learning all of these things. Knowing what kind of cut you have, and how to treat it to best effect. A very tough gristly cut can be improved by tenderizing. Going low-and-slow/sous vide to melt the connective tissu

The boyfriend in the Breonna Taylor case had charges dismissed, so you're right on this. Somehow none of the hail of 32 shots hit him. But - to the OP's point, if you're trying to defend yourself against what appear to be po

If you live in the area, it's easy to say that. There's no protests in the local parks. There's no shouting matches at city council meetings. I say this as a person living in a town where they are building a bunch of data c

I love all manner of yard work. My wife says it is like living in an Animal Crossing house, with me always wandering around the yard with various things - shovels, fishing rods, buckets, rakes, chainsaws, grass seed, etc.
