I agree. Wasn’t there a DARPA project that had autonomous vehicles traversing from point A to B through the wilderness avoiding obstacles? Yes we need to maintain the infrastructure better. If everything has to be perfect before something will work it will never work in the real world. No amount of money will make…

I think I’m going to go ahead and settle the whole question with this - Is he currently being paid by Dan Snyder? If the answer is no, we might consider easing up on questioning his background.

The better way of doing actually leaves the trees partially attached to the trunks so that they cannot be pulled or pushed out of the way. That being said, it’s a delaying action at best and will not waylay an onrushing force for very long.

Len Bias...

Playing HS football, if I was ever up against a guy in a brace that just turned that spot into a target or an area where you could try to get the advantage. Most of the times that signaled a spot where he was slower or less agile - got a brace on your right (my left) side, I’m going to try to make you push off that…

What in the everloving brain-stealing-alien hell is that? Did these guys have a rugby match right after practice or something?

The Aristocrats!

American working culture is not ready for it. We are still trapped in the ‘job security’ mindset and that is a concept that, frankly, does not exist. There is no such thing as job security and there hasn’t been for nearly 30 years. The only thing that exists is what I call ‘skill security’ that is the property of…

I hope to all that is holy that you are gone from that place. Sounds like hell and there are 1,000 places to work that would be better than that.

There was a discussion among my fellow Project Managers recently as we all got back into the office after NY’s. We have a use-it-or-lose-it situation with PTO and there were people that lost three to four days of PTO because they didn’t take it before the new year.

I completely agree that everyone has the opportunity to shut off from work. I’ve called cell phones and pagers that have company email/IM on them ‘Electronic Work Leashes’ for years. I used to have company e-mail on my personal device but deleted that a while ago. I never responded to it, but used to use it to see…

Damnit - take your star.

This is a ridiculous opinion from Kill. Did he read the report or did he black out halfway through like he used to on the sideline? Because it might have been a blessing for the woman in question if she had blacked out halfway through her ordeal. As soon as Claeys voiced support for the potential boycott I’d have…

Used to drive between Corpus Christi, TX and Wichita, KS when I lived down south. To avoid the Austin traffic on I35 we would take the back roads out of Corpus heading North. Goliad, TX and the surrounding area are some very strange mixes of places. There are areas there where they mine uranium so there are a lot…

I think those would be great two weeks from now ahead of the Super Bowl. My vote is for booze - the mulled wine below (and I added my own hot toddy take to the list).

I’d like to see that and a hot toddy recipe through sous vide as well. I’d love to see if I could extract more spices and flavors into a toddy (ginger, star anise, clove) to go with the lemon, honey, bourbon combo I use. There you have it - two booze flavors that might work great with Sous vide.

I would imagine that would help immensely - we’re in Kansas, so not much call for separate tires/wheels for the two to three work days a year when there’s the white stuff on the ground. Just means he has to plan ahead and potentially not go anywhere for 36 hours after a winter storm unless he wants to roll the dice.

My BIL got one when they were brand new. Loves it. One thing he’s said, though, is that with the batteries and overall weight distribution that these things are squirrely as hell on ice or anything really slick. I know that’s a silly comment as most cars aren’t very sure-footed on ice but his comment was that it’s…
