I’m still on seven… Still works OK, and I haven’t gotten a lot of pressure from them to upgrade. Since I’m mostly on Mac – has anyone made a transition to OSX keychain? I’ve used it a lot back in the day but I can’t really remember… But mo

A few thoughts: -I knew someone who wanted to set up optical and circuit board manufacturing in Vietnam - the few factories they toured seemed to be set up very well. Also frequently with better female/male ratios in management levels

I don't know if that was bc reaganites just took over a lot of the FP establishment for a while... at least recently, I've noticed their list of invited writers seem to reflect "bothsidisms" no matter how wacky.

I probably missed the boat. But thinking now is the time to buy INTC and hold off on buying AMD...until the roles are reversed again?

that being said, I feel like there's going to be a ton of datasets to be mined for some time. When I was a summer intern in ~2000, they were still writing papers out of Viking data from the '70s
