Also, I think most readers can't actually even understand percentages. They get to be small numbers too. We need everything to be consistently in the format of the old xkcd budget from about 15 years ago. xkcd.com/980/huge

Might also be against their current best practices/style guide/sop. We aren't doing it, so we can't switch to something better excuse.

And that is an and/or. I think the biggest is that stenography is easier than research journalism, so when budgets are released, they are on a tight timeline so they dash it out and send it.

1. Many reporters don't understand numbers either. 2. I t is harder to research than just writing up what is given to you and chatGPT can't do it or 3. They are obfuscating.

I would assume it means that they aren't changing anything for the enrolled students this semester, but he might be absent for the rest of the semester and might never be assigned to teach again. Would be unfair to students to lose credits this late in the semester, so he calls in sick.

Or just make them actually work again. Get them back to riding circuit.

These threads of yours are one of the highlights of my week.

Sneaky. Not just was it inversed, it was a commodity and not a stock, so it is speculation and not investment. Then again, we are doing candlestick voodoo here.

Buy, looks like it is done with the dead cat bounce and drop after. But things don't normally do the long slide without total failure, so maybe avoid that company after all. If the drop were more precipitous, maybe buy.

This is upside down, ain't it?

Documents back then from certain countries were easy to fake. Just a couple weeks ago, a whole bunch of this stuff sounded like nut job conspiracy theory to me. At this rate she came when she was 14 with faked papers. Does anyone have newspaper birth records for her?

All that access journalism yielded nothing like this, only light click fodder. The access journalists ignored it, and everyone in the government who knew hid it.

You had leaks, right? Admit it.

Maybe they want to claim that it is somehow so much more personal and deep and voluminous than search data, Carpenter v. US volume weighing style. OpenAI is silly, maybe they might just make a public policy argument how it would be bad for the economy and their users lol.

Looks like they are just whining about scope. I don't see anything else on the docket that matches.

It feels like cargo cult reading. If you build a replica of the airport the goods came through in WW2, they will come again. If we make them go through the motions of reading that readers do, they will learn to read, even if we never teach them how to get there.

These tidbits make me wish so hard for a yasattra ttrpg or game world book. Does the setting contain different languages, or is there an assumed common language used?

The whole load out seems to be tacticool more than anything else. Looks like trying to fill all the rail space. He doesn't need the silly light on during the day and he doesn't need a night laser. All he is missing is a canted sight and tactical bean holder. The point is intimidation.

That isn't a Glock, guiderod too small and unless it is a weird aftermarket slide it is contoured different at the muzzle. I think it is a sign p320. Glock has a 360 view on their website, or go to a gun store and compare.

Everything takes magpul mags now, really hard to say, but I didn't think that the standard m4 carbine had flared magwells. I would still guess something in the ar15 family. short barrel, fun muzzle device, unnecessary light in daytime. Also has that silly high optics mount that is all the rage now.
November 11, 2025 at 2:13 AM
I think this pistol is a sig p320 maybe, but there are tons of candidates out there. Post it to the guns subreddit or ar15 forum and nerdsnipe them.

Not a glock because the guiderod is too small and unless it is an aftermarket slide it is too rounded at the front of the slide.

Amusingly, companies love to direct some comms to HR directly. Things that could lead to private action by the employee against the employer and the manager. Just fire or transfer the manager maybe and pretend nothing else can be done, but this is taking action to try to protect the company.

If the protectionist policies against Chinese cars in the US didn't exist, just imagine where Tesla would be. That is why Tesla is trying to diversify into the silly humanoid robots that he claims everyone will need two of.

Not what their marketing tells you, but is obvious to anyone who has used one. It isn't even "at times", Lexis is still wrong about 20 percent of the time, it just sorta half provides irrelevant sources.
November 4, 2025 at 11:58 AM
I'm assuming you meant the old fashioned research they have, because both of them have AI offerings that aren't as bad as chatGPT, but they will still lie to you.
