We had a FedEx driver like that when I first moved into my house and was buying a bunch of heavy, bulky stuff. I watched her throw a box like that up on her shoulder and walk it up to my door. Then she went back for the other two identical boxes. Very strong, very cool!

This is wild - somebody did a deep dive into the real stories behind this famous XKCD: sheets.works/data-viz/hol...
an XKCD comic showing a precariously assembled tower of blocks. much is labelled "all modern digital infrastructure." a thin leg down at the bottom is labelled "A project some random person in Nebraska has been thanklessly maintaining since 2003."

Current approval rating is inches away from beginning with a "2", but 44% would still vote for this? This is a profound bummer

I've always viewed them as networking opportunities for college kids. One problem is that there are bad people networking with other bad people and forming life-long, and sometimes generational, bad people support systems.

That was my my first thought when I saw her post that! I first watched Patriot back in '16 or '17. Had to wait for season 2 to come out. S1 is better than S2, but all of it is great IMO. I talk this show up as much as I can but I don't think I've ever gotten anyone to watch it

After re-reading, I see that they went from dialing random numbers to address-based sampling. Do they disclose the address-based sampling criteria?

That's an interesting twist! My local airport's TSA CP isn't open 24/7, but it's a regional airport, not one of the big ones.

My sister and a friend of mine danced ballet and while that was years ago, the messaging was clear as day. If you didn't *look* graceful and thin, you weren't going be given serious consideration as a dancer. Girls in those classes were told to their faces that they were too heavy or too big.
