Canadian English isn't that far off, especially in a lot of the spelling...
The other huge spike was in nitrogen-based fertilizer that went up something like 3x ($0.40/lb -> $1.20/lb) during the pandemic
Shit happens. What makes this so interesting is the speed at which the shit tsnuami spread. Try rolling out a little more slowly so less of the world gets affected.
For those affected, consider it a relatively painless test of your DR systems, and a chance to fix 'em up.
I just pop up the text "Loading..."
I'm surprised at the lack of skepticism. I would instantly assume a ton a barium and canaries in whatever docs were dropped (so conveniently).
Yes, it's at the end of the document. Penalties will be assessed once fact discovery is complete. Monetary damages of legal costs related to this issue are to be presented to the court by the plaintiff.
Multiplied by VC/tech driven by a herd mentality at the speed of light.
To remind sober me what the hell hammered me was thinking.
The latest version 2.6 has an issue where it can lose track of the cluster state, rendering it useless. (You had one job Rancher).
Addicts aren't bad people trying to get good, they're sick people trying to get well.
Datadog for the win in dark-pattern land.
Love the software, hate the billing.
At this point bodycams might be more appropriate.
Hopefully your manager has noticed and you'll have a chat. If you trust each other, which isn't a given, tell them what's going on.
Especially during the pandemic, I've had people go through varying levels of productivity. Maybe it's depression, boredom, personal stuff, burnout, whatever. We're human beings.
I've been allow to institute mental health days - if the month doesn't have a (US) federal holiday, book a day off. If you're really burning out, let's see what we can do about that - also involves time off.
Depending on what area you're in (I'm in devops), it costs probably 6 months of your salary to replace you, plus it's hard, and all your knowledge leaves with you. Plus people remember when you back them up - it means a lot on a human level.
It's been done for me and I do my best to pass it on.
Good luck.

The real concern for the banks is that HELOCs are second lien mortgages, so the risk is considerably higher if there's a default.
First lien mortgages get the house. Second lien gets whatever's left over, and guaranteed that the process is painful.
Chase did the same thing a while back, for the same reasons.
Sorta the opposite of YC... probably has quite an extensive network of people to buy everything from the people to the chairs...
Before today, the record number of Waffle House closures at one time was 107 (Hurricane Katrina, 2005)
There aren't any rules, there are just suggestions... that being said, a higher-power is something that's "not you", could be the group, yoda, the universe, a light bulb. Seriously...
Anonymous is at the level of press, radio and films...
This has been blowing up for a very long time. They almost got away with it... now that people are leaving the lab the apology is certainly suspect.
By the same token, will the organizations that fight trafficking take Epstein-tainted money?
Especially if the bad guy used to work for your vendor.
Historic note (like from the 80's) - any time a machine was rebooted we'd type sync; sync; sync; reboot - the explanation was that the only guarantee was that the second sync wouldn't start until the first sync successfully completed, plus one for good luck...
2 words: Jury Nullification.

Moving from Canada to the US was a shock - in Canada, prescribing opioids was rare - but you could get codeine painkillers over the counter, but that was when things got really bad.... here, simple dental procedures were met with Percocets and Oxycontin...
The basic difference seems to be in Canada, you're a patient while in the US, you're a customer... and the docs don't want their customers to be in pain. That appears to be changing.
Do it in a sleeper, a very pleasant experience...
You'd think sunny places would fare better - however after moving to Key West from Montreal I discovered people here spent a lot of effort avoiding the sun (skin cancer is big down here).
