Coal and renewables aren’t always direct competitors.  Wind and solar can offset coal use a lot of the time when production is high but overall the capacity factor for renewables is low -- you can’t produce energy when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing.  So you see coal typically being replaced with…

They also don’t admit a lot of people outside of that group.

Harvard gets way more than 3% return on their investment (it varies a ton year to year and they took a huge hit in 2009 but it comes to closer to 6-7% on average in the last few decades https://www.harvardmagazine.com/endowment-18). Tuition is a lot more about exclusivity than about funding for universities with…

I’m trying to figure out how exactly a five month old appears high. They’ve just learned to smile, maybe they are buzzing their lips a bit and trying to figure out how to crawl. Maybe they would be a bit hungrier? I don’t know if you could detect a baby lacking ambition.

I encourage this relevant coverage from the Greater Schenectady Area.

Why are they bothering to talk to Geoff?  Geoff/Jeff is wrong on a fundamental level. 

6'2" is kind of a weird height. You're taller than almost everybody but there's always somebody taller than you at the concert, none of your clothing fits, and you're too big to sit comfortably in arenas and airplanes. Not bad for a dating profile though. 

You should try the Amtrak route to Nashville. 

Scramble bands specialize in old-school humor. By that I mean white dudes punching down. Good riddance.

I was in the Tennessee band. That was one of the throwaway shows that everybody hates to do. Every home game has a different show, so they’d simplify some shows and only really put together 3 real shows a year, with one of them being the Circle Drill which doesn’t change too much year to year. There’s a lot of clever…

I’m wondering if they started using alternate milks because demand of breast milk outstripped supply. Given the ability to supplement they would be compelled to do so. 

Basically 1080p, so go ahead and get a 1080p screen. 

Yeah, it’s incredibly unclear.  The 32 feet is from the linked BBC article but it doesn’t give more information than that.

I’m not a big fan of baseball.  Is it difficult to replace these bags?  If it isn’t trivial you could replace them during the commercial breaks and dry the alternate pair in between.  

As a Tennessee fan, I saw the headline and thought “Geoff Calkins probably shat out some hot take for this.”

I wanted to get a better idea so I looked up the depth. Apparently it’s 32 feet for this place. Not a trivial depth and definitely risky for a novice, but if he was experienced probably not a huge effort. 

I understand the urge to find unique ways to propose but I feel like that’s the sort of thing you should do with as little mortal risk as possible.  Why potentially scar your partner for life?  

Well the single is out so there wasn’t any point anymore. 

Given the game I usually get "Nazi", which isn't actually a racial slur, so points to you for digging that one up. 

It’s fun. At my school a small number of the members got scholarships as well, but most marched because they enjoyed marching and playing music.
