I legit got ran over because a woman did 90+mph in a school zone and claimed she'd hit a dog and not a kid in neon yellow clothes (it was the 1990s lol).

Roughly 30 years later I still tense up at crosswalks, and my back is shot even after an emergency surgery over a year ago.

How about this - In the US, you could give tax breaks to landlords who put solar panels on their apt complexes, SO LONG AS the tenants also get a power bill break on the resulting power generated.

Hey instead of the LA cops getting $3.6 billion dollars a year, and also paying out close to $400 million in settlements, here's an idea ...

In 2012, not long before the great Roger Ebert died, he published one of the finest, tightest essays ever composed about the ineffable nostalgic perfections of chain restaurants, a celebration of his beloved Steak ‘n Shake and its unchanging, ever-delicious burgers and fries. (Link at end of 🧵)

We mention Disney's Motor Mania in Life After Cars. When it was released 76 years ago it understood something fundamental about driving: No one becomes a *better* person behind the wheel of a car.

I will once again posit you could win with >70% if the vote with the simple "Police settlements come out of their pension fund, not the city funds" policy.

I really needed to see this thing I just saw on Tumblr:

Write it badly or it'll never be written

Write it badly or it'll never be written

I just wish defender would actually flag when it removes vba from a file.
Right now, there's no logging that I can find, and it makes troubleshooting when things break so frustrating.

HAH. Well glad it happens to yall too, so you at least know our pain there.
Being a VBA dev as part of my day job is a frustrating exercise.

Bad documentation is the worst. I get so mad about it.
Nothing is properly documented, and now with so many folks using LLM to generate their documentation and never checking it, who KNOWS if its actually accurate any longer...

There is little more frustrating than an antivirus deciding your code looks too much like a publicly available function for something that is also used as an attack surface, and having to go through the sometimes WEEKS long process of submitting false positive reports...

I know QUITE a lot about LLM and ML, hilariously.
And Im STILL screaming about that, because false positive pattern matching with things like Defender is a BANE of my work life.
Absolutely NOTHING like having processes break because Defender strips the VBA out of docs and doesnt keep a log of it.

Personally I think "You have one shot at an academic career and too bad if that happens during a world-historical collapse in research funding" is maybe not a great long-term professional incentive structure

⚠ PSA vgen reference scam
this just happened to me (didn't download the file no worries)
don't download .html reference files from vgen

as for commissioners, if you're using your email instead of a vgen account I'd suggest uploading .jpg/.png files for your character references instead of links! 👀

If you don't already own these games, BUY THEM.
They are some of the best point and click puzzle games out there.
