That's what buses, bicycles, and your feet are for, in many places.

You shouldn't have to negotiate prices.

I've seen both sides of this: a PIP for a person who was falling behind that wasn't possible for the person to achieve because they were in a role without the skills needed to succeed in that role, and a PIP that was based on one supervisor's bad opinion of a particular person that was easy to accomplish when put in place by a different supervisor.

Will Claws let me identify and delete duplicate messages?

It's a Minnesota thing.

It all depends on your use case. It can get below zero F here (northern Minnesota) for weeks at a time, but I don't regularly drive more than 10 miles round trip.

As a second/town vehicle, a cheaper EV sounds great for conditions I can't use the e-assist cargo bike.

I came here for this comment.

I have a stack of statistics books that I will flip through if I need explanation or illustration of a new concept. Usually one will help me out better than the others, but the combination of the different explanations usually improves my understanding.

I suppose this is really a parallelization of the "third textbook" model (i.e., if the third textbook you try when learning something new seems "much better" than the first two, it might because you actually did learn some things from the first two).

This can get weird if you're the boss and offering to buy drinks, if only because it can reinforce a power dynamic you already see in the office.

Might depend on your shack/feedline/antenna location, too. As in every other part of ham radio, YMMV.

You have more features with Tusky (like being able to see the local timeline) than the official app.

You just need to join one, and then you can interact with everyone.

There are a ton of different application types in the Fediverse. See https://fediverse.party/en/miscellaneous/.

There's already a Wordpress plugin that lets your content federate. People can follow your blog from Mastodon or elsewhere in the Fediverse.

I came to this thread for the Dad jokes.

I do this too, but trying to change it. I learned as a figure-eight, then switched to two-circles in grad school (for some reason), but now learning Morse code and copying 8's takes too long if you don't write them as one motion.

Generally no, because the sealing formations are not carbonates.

Some of the size forcing is for "safety," that is, we have larger vehicles because they need to survive crash tests at high speeds. But if you have a city that decides they want to set all speed limits at 20 mph and design streets so that it's physically very difficult to exceed that speed, you can get away with much smaller vehicles (no vehicles over a certain weight allowed within city limits, for example).

Not every place needs to be a "dense metropolis," but designing everyone's lives and modes of transportation around the needs to people who live 20 or more miles from the nearest city doesn't make a ton of sense. Too often this discussion is presented as either/or when it can be both/and.
