Stop thinking about yourself and think about others. Every thing you do has consequences for others.

It’s wild how 3 deaths from Hantavirus got more media attention than 50,000+ people in Venezuela are missing!

NEW: National Hurricane Center draws an official “low” (20%) chance for tropical development off the coast of Georgia over the next 7 days. Talking though more specifically about next Tuesday / Wednesday timeframe. A cluster of thunderstorms passing by Chicago and the Midwest will zoom SE towards the Atlantic coast early next week. When it gets to the ocean, it will stop along a front and may spin up into a tropical system. Odds are fairly low this actually happens. The only model that really suggests continues to be the cutting edge Google “DeepMind” AI modeling. AI weather modeling is different than traditional physics based weather models. They are “trained” on historical weather events and told to compare essentially solely to those. Second image shows the Google model with an insistently strong signal for “Bertha” to form mid-next week, tracking into Georgia or NE Florida. Impediments to development; dry air, low moisture, and limited window over water. But, water temps are historically hot off the FL and GA east coast, and that is one of the few spots this hurricane season with lower wind shear, not impacted by the negating impacts of strong El Niño across the rest of the basin. For central Florida, I don’t see much chance at this time this is any notable impact to the Orlando area? If it formed into anything. It would either go into Georgia or get pushed back out to sea away from Florida next week. Regardless, still expect high daily rain and storm coverage in east flow Monday-Wednesday next week in central FL. AI models insist on tropical storm Bertha. Conventional wisdom says it’s a very long shot. We will watch in the coming days and see who’s right this time.

Hot take: If Apple has the balls to raise the prices of their products, they should also have the balls to increase trade-in values for older devices.

Reminds of the 1989 World Series Bay Area earthquake. I was watching World Series live in Los Angeles and then feel the waves minutes later.

Flash Flood Emergency confirmed by law enforcement in Bentley and Caney, Oklahoma — 4 to 7 inches already down with more coming. Get to higher ground right now, do not get in a vehicle unless you're fleeing.

Crime doesn’t go up because there are too many guns. Crime goes up because there are too few consequences.
