Are they saying that the same 12% of people eat half of the consumed beef each day? Or that 12% of beef consumers eat half of the daily consumption but that group’s membership changes each day?

If I eat a steak and cheeseburger in the same day, am I part of that group or am I never part of the group because I only eat beef 1x per week?

My first introduction to this concept was Tobin Sieber's book Disability Theory[0].

He referred to able-bodied people as TABs, Temporarily Able-Bodied. You are born a helpless infant and, if lucky, die a helpless elder.

> The cycle of life runs in actuality from disability to temporary ability back to disability, and that only if you are among the most fortunate.

Totally agree. I’ll treat Google’s future Gmail AI announcement with a lot of hesitancy. Forget a 3rd-party implementation.

The team has a GitHub repo:

I would add that good writing is required for all career advancement.

Senior engineers or architects may do more design than coding and the design needs to be conveyed likely as writing and hopefully a couple diagrams.

Managers absolutely need to be good writers to communicate effectively, advocate for their team, and tell the story of the team’s work.

If you’re an engineer and want to have a higher level job than you have now, getting better at writing is only going to help. I’m not saying it’s a MUST because I’m sure there’s some outliers, but it won’t hurt.

Going to check this out.

FYI - your Obsidian and Logseq links on the honmepage are swapped.

I don’t think the pilots are being scapegoated when they ditched a working plane in the ocean. There were a lot of things that led them there and a lot of reasons it happened, but this crash was avoidable with proper procedures.

If they’re unhappy with their own API, this could provide an abstraction layer for the app. They rewrite their client to use this API and it frees up two teams to work (almost) independently. The UI team can work on their roadmap while the backend team fixes the internal API or retires the logic and implement it into this new layer.

I’m not saying they’ll do this or that it makes sense. But I’ve definitely done it in much smaller projects.

I question the functionality but the aesthetic reminds me of my old IBM Thinkpad days.

The article defines it as “non medical”. And that doesn't mean that people can't find identity in it.

This is the best interpretation of this list. It’s a great guide to understand what topics you care about. Maybe there are a couple questions in here that would raise red flags for you. You should pursue those as conversation points.

Try LunchMoney as an alternative to Intuit. Solo founder, great support, great roadmap and delivery. She uses Plaid so the integration is similar to Mint.

We had a small hand pump toy that would suck up the tub water and spray it. It was a manual pump so it taught cause/effect which is critical for development.

Second the swimming lessons. I have two daughters with a rare genetic condition and they are obsessed with swimming in the pool. My older is physically challenged, wears AFO legs braces, has a seriously disturbed gait, and frequently uses a chair when we’re out in public. But she can swim non-stop for an hour. Great exercise, great strength building, great for safety. I feel like her freedom in the water is an escape from her limitations on land. :D

DynDns can help overcome the static IP barrier. I've used this some years ago but can't vouch for its functionality today.

How do you propose stopping estimates from becoming commitments? Genuinely asking because I struggle to not do this as a manager.

You can add a playlist to your library and it will show up in the Playlists section. Navigate to the playlist and look for an icon with throw horizontal lines and a check mark.

This is a perfectly acceptable view of the United States if you only watch television news.
