@HAVNGlobal There was something really satisfying about building in this case. Phase 1, is done, waiting for various parts to switch to a custom water loop. #buildHAVN

@rommsey @deaflibertarian Our GE Profile washer and dryer have been excellent. I’d place Bosch on list for fridge and dishwasher too. Stay away from LG, Samsung, Maytag, Kitchen Aid and Whirlpool at all costs.

@deaflibertarian Speed Queen for washer/dryer GE for stove/fridge I know easier said than done. I say this to help!

@ulcctakeover @GemStateGhost @johnsops @TanMart03 Fair, and totally true if traveling by yourself, and not with family. Generally speaking my time is more valuable than the small cost savings.

@tiffanee_dawn I’ve seen this behavior on my old iPad. Typically if I force quit apps it will charge properly again it is really weird.

Anyone else’s iPhone battery acting weird? I’ve had my phone plugged in all night to charge and it’s only at 76%. I feel like things are fishy.

@BillsR_Electric @Viora_Tech_Ai A very quick look at Costco’s financial statements prove this isn’t true. They brought in $5.3B in membership dues, but their overall profit was $8.1B. Dues drive profit, but clearly it is not 100%

@Viora_Tech_Ai On the other hand Costco charges a membership fee, and sells its goods at cost. That is right, Costco makes ZERO profit from anything it sells. 100% of its profit is from membership fees.

A billionaire walked into a five-star hotel and asked for the cheapest room they had. The receptionist blinked, confused. “Sir, our presidential suite has a full city view…”

@johnsops @TanMart03 Be grateful it keeps the likes of Frontier, Spirit and Jet Blue out…

@Mattizreal @Apolloknius @ramit Yeah words are subjective. I would say upper middle class would be anyone from the 60th percentile to 80th percentile, Upper Class 80th to 95th, wealthy 95th to 99th, Rich to 1%. This would be solidly in the “wealthy” category to me.

I asked a couple their net worth: Julie: "If you include our primary residence, it's in the ballpark of 12 million." Ramit: "Have you ever said that number out loud?" Julie: "No, it makes me really uncomfortable." Ramit: "How would you describe yourself socio-economically?" Julie: "Upper middle class." Tom: "Take out the upper part and you're right." At $12 million, she describes them as "upper middle class." He thinks they're "middle class." Why do you think wealthy people find it so difficult to describe themselves as wealthy?

@ramit That net worth is at 98.5 percentile in the US, it is well above upper middle class.

@ajjuliani A more healthy approach would be zero child technology in elementary, limited in middle school (labs, class carts), and 1-to-1 in high school. Our district went all in since 2nd grade and it hasn’t gone well

@BOSSportsGordo It is easier to back into a tight spot the go forward into a tight spot because you have better control. Same reason forklifts steer on their rear wheels not front.

Serious question for people who back into parking spaces - what’s the point?

@Fergy4Tech @dan_wayne_smith @lilyalta Teachers want to do these things and get scolded for making too many copies and not using the tech tools.

NEW: a school in northern MI might just be a test case for the anti-screen movement. Educators banned Chromebooks in the middle of the school year. We spent a day: chalkbeat.org/2026/03/25/scr…

@WallyB71286158 @TansuYegen Depends on how you measure efficiency. The modern US way is to build enough pavement for four lanes of traffic but only use two and have enough shoulder room for emergency vehicles. This is not an efficient use of pavement…

@TansuYegen In the U.S., emergency vehicles use the lanes to the right and left of traffic. Drivers stay in their own lane and yield as needed. It’s a more efficient way than requiring all vehicles to yield.
