I can't believe this Getty mansion is still for sale.
$5M in Berkeley.

Marriage as countless little wishes to please each other

@signulll @scoopdiddy1 Unfortunately because the median consumer sorts by price, this is the expected equilibrium. Do anything to get sorted first and charge add ons later.
English
@scoopdiddy1 delta sucks ass. nickle & dime pricing.
i don’t know why they got associated with premium. they are the same as everyone else:.
English
some rich billionaire, can you please create an airline that will destroy every other airline?
- charge fair straight forward premium prices
- optimize for comfort, food, & premium experiences.
- fuck the rewards, credit cards, & points. just clean beautiful experiences.
maybe acquire few airlines to do it for gate access.

@demystifysci I agree, though I think his interiors are better

@chesterBirdbath Basically I don't think anything different from this. n.b. he has to remind people in the comments about what air superiority means also.

Stealth is extremely good, but there are systems still aimed by eyeball & with enough rounds in the air, eventually you’ll fly into one of them. I wouldn’t read too much into this.

@chesterBirdbath You are making a strange mistake if you think I am making anything other than a few descriptive statements here. What on earth have I posted that's pro-war propaganda?

One of the most aggravating things about Posting Online is that you learn almost no one is capable of differentiating between descriptive and normative statements.

well you're dead. did your gay son tweet this from the hospital in moscow?

@chesterBirdbath I like the idea that after north of 11,000 sorties (US/IL) over 19 days, the damaging of a plane suggests something about air superiority. I suggest you review the definition of that term.
More likely it suggests something about safe altitudes, but we'll have to wait and see.
English
@simonsarris American media is reporting on this and CENTCOM confirmed the pilot had to make an emergency landing.
Trump and Hegseth claim the U.S. has total air supremacy. The F35 is our best jet, considered to be untouchable.
If Iran can detect and hit F35s, it is very bad for the U.S.
English
@chesterBirdbath If this is real, and shows something that hit an F35 that returned to base damaged, then the longer video shows the obvious fact that the plane got away. What they released wants to give the false impression that it was destroyed.

@ShafronTom @kaiarhodes Yeah, we're testing it right now and it's going surprisingly OK.
English
For most of my adult life, America operated under a kind of ambient invincibility. Oil shocks happened in our parents’ generation.
Amazon and UPS made just-in-time delivery table stakes. Supply chain was a term for logistics people, not a household anxiety.
We built an economy so dominant, so insulated by military reach, reserve currency status, and sheer geographic luck, that we confused resilience with imperviousness.
We are not impervious. We are dependent. We can't see the dependency because no one has tested it in a generation.

@jmduke @joelcipriano Why not lean more into Digital Ocean, since you're already using them?
We went AWS -> DO and have been very happy. Our infra is simple enough that a few linux boxes and managed postgres is all that's needed though

@joelcipriano @simonsarris Almost certainly going with Hetzner + Kamal

Gave a visual refresh to our stack page and combined it with the open source one, since that seems... more correct, somehow.

It is civilization-grade low hanging fruit to make anything you can more beautiful

@drethelin 100% performance art is more a part of life than ever (in workplaces, in romance, etc) and it is not ideal. Lots of people learn to have fun with it but its very punishing to those who don't enjoy it.
Also, at least in the workplace, it constantly gets in the way of other goals
English
An unfortunate thing about the modern world is you don't just have to be a certain way, you have to perform being that way too

There's a sort of fundamental problem that husbandly behaviors aren't easy to see from the outside, or the "before" world. Maybe wanting this is part of the reason for the decline. How would you "get" a friend or stranger(!) into a place where they could be husbandly?
English
@simonsarris The men can get more return faster by changing, and generally need it more.
English
strategy wise dating is a funny thing because the obvious catches are presumably caught, you have be quite discerning. You have to see what no one else is seeing.
English
there are some, but I think you have to get near people to really tell
and I think some people *will* become husbandly in future, or under right conditions, but are not yet, and being able to tell that is where the most alpha exists

@simonsarris how to attract a wife by demonstrating husbandly behaviors
English
@amaldorai that's what reminded me of my "how to find a husband" draft
English
@simonsarris Normally I would say that you have better expertise in how to find a wife but l just read a thread today that suggested H-cup breast implants as a way to find a husband and feel like the husband-seeking women need better advice than that
English
@arcDev12 after the poll closes I can check gender stats in the analytics

@simonsarris Surely this won’t be biased by more males being on this site
