Oh, AAA. My husband and I were driving a camouflaged CUCV (military bronco) from VA to WV around Thanksgiving. Towing a trailer full of stuff and had four large dogs. The truck died. In Virginia, one mile from the WV line. Someone picked me

And the media and federal government citing the waving of foreign flags is another distraction. As Americans, and people living in the USA, we are allowed to do this. It's a Constitutional protection. Again, all of this is a distractio

ACIP has been around since 1964. See https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6342a5.htm . But the basic work of ACIP had been done for 25+ years before the committee was created. The American Academy of Pe

As someone who has spent 25+ years working with legislation and legislators in the US, to me the point is not whether the comma is the problem (to Apple) but rather that the law is the law. If the legislators wanted to do something other th

I very much appreciate these efforts. I don't think they, like I don't think men's sheds, have to be everything to all people. I DO think social isolation, white boys and men in the US (and elsewhere? I have no idea), and vol

Watching the speech, had a flashback to early 1986 when I was trying to figure out what the hell I was going to do now that I had graduated from college. In addition to what Jessica talked about, I left school a semester early having earned

This reminds me of the surgical checklist developed by Atul Gawande and explained in this NPR story https://www.npr.org/2010/01/05/122226184/atul-gawandes-check... . Basically, standardize the work with c

The hackathons I attended were focused on solving/addressing the Washington, DC budget (I know, very weirdly specific, but I'm a major policy wonk) and social services. To the latter, the benefit for me was to have tech folks help

I wonder how many people, tech included, know someone in a union. Similarly, I've always been curious about working for the government. When I was in high school and even college, going to work meant private sector even though half my

I agree with your take. Very long story, while my family doesn't talk about feelings, we're pretty good at talking about end of life. Separately, some years ago spent a good amount of time listening to what Atul Gawande thought ab

Having spent 25+ years working on policy with a local government and then 3 years working in that government, this idea excites me. I mean, the idea that the government tests something with actual users or at least potential users. So much

Can't disagree more. I am disgusted by abuse of power. One law enforcement officer who use excessive force or breaks the rules is too many. They should all be found and prosecuted. Systems which perpetuate abuse of power should be torn

What exact corrupt activities has LSS engaged in? Specifically, provide some evidence, please.

If you are going to quote X, then at least find another source, one that is legit. The truth is that LSS got grants to pay for the resettlement of legal immigrants. LSS was NOT "facilitating mass migration." LSS has a long traditi
