OMG I hadn’t realized it was the official name even though I saw the photo of the Florida DOT highway sign. I was either being slow, in a state of denial, or a combination of the two.

We are cooked.

To the intern who manages Jacky’s social media: please let the Senator know that we cannot accept how welcoming she is to a thug like Bibi.

One of my neighbors informed me Trump is a holy man who will accelerate the second coming of Christ, according to “the prophecy.”

I’ve lived almost 50 years without knowing “ballast” exists. Should I take responsibility for my own ignorance or blame my midwestern, landlocked upbringing?

I spent an entire summer working coal barges and tow boats on the Mississippi River, yet …

Sailing suddenly makes sense.

The COBOL system had worked beautifully for decades, however it required text-based commands and a user couldn’t point and click their way through it with a mouse (gasp!). It was one of many examples of my boss’s hubris and her systems illiteracy. The agency’s COBOL was Chesterton’s fence. 2/3

OMG!!! Instacart’s “recommended substitute” algorithm is a complete disaster. To make matters worse, shoppers are incentivized to use it because of how the ratings framework functions.

Prayers I don’t get deactivated for this disclosure.

Yell it from the rooftops. This meme makes me insane!!

As aside, I’ve noticed some folks are receptive to the fact that IC actively incentivizes crazy substitutions through its ratings framework and dumb algorithm. We lose customers when a certain type of shopper technically follows instructions.

Blocked by @twothirtythree.bsky.social and called a cracker for the most nominal amount of pushback regarding the treatment of her instacart servants. What a little whore.

Are you aware that we’re incentivized to use IC’s recommended substitutions?
March 26, 2025 at 4:53 PM
The problem is the substitution algorithm used by instacart. When your item is out of stock, the algorithm recommends a sub to the shopper (it’s usually a total miss). If we bypass the recommendation, we open ourselves up to bad ratings if the customer dislikes our pick. I always bypass, cuz duh.

There are a lot of variables, but here’s a recent example from my market. It was offered to me at 4:30pm on a Monday.
