Few nursing homes can care for people who need help breathing with a ventilator because of ALS and other conditions. Insurers often deny payment for the best at-home machines, and innovative solutions are endangered by Medicaid cuts. n.pr/3M3fPqx
They need a ventilator to stay alive. Getting one can be a nightmare

This is seriously worrying - do read the whole thread
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Thanks to @alexspeier.bsky.social for picking up the Sunday Baseball Notes while I was on vacation this week.

Alex had an interesting look at how velocity has increased in the majors in recent years along with much more:

No end in sight to rising velocity numbers in MLB as clubs and pitchers continue to chase numbers in arms race - The Boston Globe
The 2025 season marked the first known instance in which all 30 big league teams had at least one pitcher throw 100 m.p.h.

And I’m suddenly very thankful that Korean swapped my flight on Saturday from A321neo to 737-900. Not even the ER, the regular 900.

This is wild.
The Airbus A320 mess is happening while I'm on vacation means I get to learn what happened and how they fix it later, without needing to figure it out in real time and report on it.

Good news is it is mostly software fixes. For those that need hardware it could be rough.

OK why would a video about top picks in Amphibious aircraft, show a Carbon Cub SS, that is never shown on Floats? The top pick was The Grumman Albatross, I would agree, from the three.
