Yeah, stop at Season 2.

> >"I served with a guy named Gino in the Pacific, he kept raving about this thing called pizza"

You're not very far off at all. My dad joined the navy in 1944 at the Brooklyn NY Navy Yard and ended up spending time in occupied Japan. He got a kick from telling the other sailors about all the exotic food from back home like pizza, bagels, Coney Island "frankfurters" (as he called them,) and this crazy food called spaghetti and meatballs.

Abolished long after statistical sampling was a well-understood practice.

The Imperial system is our underappreciated homage to our English cousins.

>but most people are far more afraid of nuclear.

Godzilla, after all.

My elementary school education demanded we flawlessly and elegantly write in cursive with a fountain pen, no less. My current penmanship style is somewhere between cipher code and chicken scratching. But I can still really appreciate good, artistic penmanship. AI is crazy good in some respects.

Sad, but no doubt it will prevail. Makes economic and practical sense.

There goes the neighborhood.

I have no idea who Lou Williams is but he doesn't seem very bright, if well-intentioned.

I didn't realize there were humanized mice.

>He must have been very high during that interview

He was also a bullshitter extraordinaire, so that too.

If the enemy of my enemy is my friend, what does that make the friend of my enemy?

In lots of places running them above ground is the difference between getting electric service or none at all, especially rural areas.

And if there's a mandate to run them below ground, service would be more reliable, a "tidier" look, etc., but also much more expensive for people in rural areas already struggling financially.

So yeah, in a perfect world energy would be clean, cheap, reliable, and each and every child would be above average.

We all stand on the shoulders of giants.

The early 70's was a very strange period in our culture. Source: was sentient at the time.

Garum is a fermented fish sauce first brought to England by the Romans, who got it from the Phoenicians:

25+ year flying commuter here: besides all the usual comments (water, food, entertainment) just accept that delays may be sometimes significant and are outside your control. Your client/boss needs to accept that but most importantly, so do you.

There was a homeless city there at one point. Before that it was really a shit hole, IIRC there was a sad, old bandshell there that was depressing to think how it must once have been a nice place. By the 90's when they built a playground and I started seeing baby carriages, it was obvious things were changing for the better.

Sad to hear it's sliding backwards again.

The entirety of the software industry shows being an innovator almost always ends in failure until the next guy learns from you and does it a thousand times better.

Zuck is not wrong, this is epic and for the ages. Possibly as big as the Industrial Revolution. Bankruptcy for him and Facebook would not break my heart, though.

That's the study after they publish Coffee is Good for You/Coffee is Bad for You.
