@bubbleboi You saw Trump ignoring his kids wedding and went turbo long on oil didn’t you.

Drop me into the straight of Hormuz right now I can’t have this happen.
Ali Hashem علي هاشم@Alihashem
According to my sources, the draft proposal that’s supposed to be finalised include: -End of war on all fronts including Lebanon -Freeing several billion dollars of Iran's blocked funds -Lifting the U.S. naval blockade and opening the strait of Hormuz -Withdrawal of American forces from the immediate vicinity of Iran After this, the parties will have 30 days to agree on the nuclear issue. These 30 days can be extended by mutual agreement. During these thirty days, passage will be facilitated through the strait. According to Iran, management of the Strait of Hormuz will be an Iranian-Omani issue, and is being negotiated with Muscat.

@WardoftheStates More likely a result of the popularity of the fast and the furious movies.
I am not a GWOT veteran, but backed my goofy Mitsubishi eclipse into parking spots as a kid because I thought it looked cool.
English
Backing up into parking spots became a thing when GWOT veterans came back from Iraq and Afghanistan.
That’s the actual answer.

What's with everyone backing into parking spots anymore? When did that become a thing

I think that the agents are good at making tooling *around* the core software. For instance: I need a tool to manage all the icons/images in a phonics reading app. Write me a react app to view/edit/catalog images and associate their related words/phonics.
This is very low stakes, only I'll use it so the bugs don't matter, but it saved me a ton of time.

This is largely what fueled several of the crypto boom cycles. "ICO"s were a way to run around investor qualifications and regulatory structures. People want the ability to invest early in interesting companies.

If you go to any city in America, there is a chance that you will meet someone who has become a millionaire from investing early in Apple, Google, Tesla or Nvidia. If you go to any city in America, there is almost a zero % chance that you encounter anyone who has become a millionaire from investing early in SpaceX, Anthropic or OpenAI. There will be severe sociopolitical consequences from this when all of the dust has settled.

I build custom small batch watches. I've got one that's a meteorite dial, and one that's starry night dial. The starry night is more of a dress watch. The meteorite goes with everything - and the idea that it's a rock from space is pretty cool. There's only 5 of these in the world!

Never mind about the Rolex… had no idea buying one was like buying a Ferrari, where you have to beg, jump though hoops and then buy products you don’t want to get the one you do want! 😂
thought it would be fun to own, but would much prefer to just order something on a website (like a Tesla!) and be done with it.
These retail and reseller channels make things far too time consuming
Is there a nice watch I can just… order?
@jason@Jason
I would like to purchase this @ROLEX

@larsencc @typesfast In fact you could say that the process of reviewing it, testing it, etc. all just got slower due to the increased volume of code being produced.
English
@typesfast writing the code got 10x faster.
deciding what to build, getting it past review, and shipping it to you did not.
the slow part was never the typing.
English
With all these AI coding improvements why isn't the software I use everyday getting better?

We went through this exact thing with our kids. 4 year old wouldn’t be woken up by anything, 3 and 1 year old on a hair trigger.
The only thing was to tough it out, unfortunately. My wife and I would trade shifts, and sometimes we would move the younger into a different room so he didn’t wake up the olders.
Make sure whoever is waking doesn’t have an ear infection or similar issue. Sometimes those can sneak up.
English
oh my god how do I get my kids to stop waking up at 4am, 4:30, I'm dying here
I do think the formula change helped a bit but now the baby is cutting teeth and I just hate this so much I hate dealing with baby sleep and I wish I had known how awful it would be
English
@burby_geek @CDHMartinez @amazon Here’s the exit which leads to Merritt Pkwy, btw. It does say no commercial vehicles, but doesn’t list a height restriction. Local knowledge would tell you that this *implies* low bridges, but imo it should be more clear.

English
Unfortunately there is ambiguity about what “truck” or “parkway” mean between states and contexts. In the context of a weigh station, truck means a commercial truck (even though truck could also mean a ford f-150).
Truck sometimes also means “diesel only” in the case of truck stops.
Outside of the NE, “Parkway, cars only” could just mean that there are no weigh stations, or be related to a noise problem with J brakes or something.
It’s why this is a consistent problem for the parkways like the one I accidentally went on (Merrit).
English
🚨BREAKING: An @amazon tractor trailer wedged under the GW Parkway bridge like a total moron, shutting down roads and turning commute into a shitshow.
Clearance signs in big, plain English right there. So who the hell is rubber-stamping CDLs to people who can’t read them?
English
@MaxPaxCat @CDHMartinez @amazon Yeah we looked into this afterwards, but eventually just got rid of the RV and did a van conversion instead.
English
@blhack @CDHMartinez @amazon I have a truck GPS for my RV - it knows the height and weight of the vehicle and routes me appropriately.

@shagbark_hick If you were in Niland you totally get it though. Maybe that’s better than summer in the city. Kids climb around Salvation Mountain is probably fun!
English
@shagbark_hick Even now it’s already too hot for the babies outside during the day. Summers become a lot of indoors.
Compare to the “off” seasons I grew up with in MN, the summers are brutal here.

I'd be curious to know what people would do in my position. If I leave NYS, where should I go?
Keep in mind I:
- Hate humid heat
- Am and will always be a low-earner (low prop. tax more important than low income tax)
- Do not fit into "normie" HVAC drywall strip-mall world
- Am very Catholic and wish to go to Mass every single day if possible
- Am very much a "Yankee" but alternately I do mesh well with Latinos and speak some basic Spanish
- Want to be around friendly, well-read, thoughtful eccentrics (esp 'Catholic hippies')
- Could do rural or urban, cold-wet or desert climate
- Prefer to avoid total reliance on automobiles
- Need a place where I can buy a house CHEAPLY (as in, under $100k -- $200k at the absolute most)
There are compromises anywhere, to be sure. Thus far I figure I could, in no particular order:
1. Get over my hatred of hot-humid heat and move back to Chalmette, LA
2. Get over my aversion to cars and live in rural NM on the fringes of Silver City or maybe T or C
3. Try out El Paso
4. Pony up big money and try out Coos County NH
5. Try out normiedom in or near Wichita (?)
6. Live in the hood in Steubenville OH
7. Move to Tucson or maybe ABQ
8. Forget all this and just be full-blown nomadic in a boat or a bus
Or, of course, I could stay in NYS, though all my friends here are leaving and I'm starting to think the writing is on the wall for me here.
What would you do? I get a lot of scattershot advice on this so I figured it'd be interesting to make a thread for it.
English
@Crxinfinite @thecathguy there are, but none that I have tried really have the same feel as the old classic arcade rail shooters did and they just ended up feeling more like shooting galleries where as often old railshooters felt action packed the whole way through their levels

@nicholascarrigg I planning on developing a piece of land from raw forest to a cabin with my kids in Maine over the next few years. Are we all going to get Lyme and alpha gal and die? Do we need biohazard suits? Should I vax now or later?
English
I am in the Lyme Heart of Darkness here in SE New England, and I almost never get ticks on me when I walk through the woods.
You can kinda tell where they'll be and just avoid those places.
Basically, if it's grassy, avoid. Marshgrass, lol. Thorny or open grove, you're fine.
memetic_sisyphus@memeticsisyphus
Tics are insane. They have a long life cycle often years. They aren’t partial to any type of host, they’ll attach to birds, reptiles, and mammals. Birds are a primary mechanism for tick range expansion, young ticks attaching and releasing during seasonal migrations. They are very tolerant to both weather and temperature conditions. Expanding ranges means there are now more species active for longer periods of the year. Some are even active during the winter. All of the species are gaining territory, most states now have five different species, all states have at least two. It makes any eradication efforts difficult because they’re so adaptable.

Update. The bees swarmed into a hive on a tree on the north lawn of the White House. #WhiteHouse #Bees

@Funrx5313qy @paulg Oh sorry I misread what you were saying! I was really happy when I found out that there are still these ultra small companies doing stuff like this. I thought expensive watches were just hype, but I was happy to find out I was wrong.
English
Longines cal 12.68Z, one of the great movements of the golden age.
English
@Funrx5313qy @paulg Look at A Lange Sohne or Vacheron Constantin for the peak examples of where ultra specialized, artistic, hand made movements are still the basis of what drives demand for these things.
English
@Funrx5313qy @paulg Artistic movements is still the backbone of what makes expensive watches expensive and interesting.
I mean to say: this is good news! Watch movements are very cool and still a VERY active art.
