Do folks have opinions on the best alarm/monitoring system? I’d originally bought a SimpliSafe system but they don’t work with secure or local WiFi networks so I’m returning it. Something comparable but with modern tech standards would be great.
A few Warriors hot takes (some mild, some spicey)
1) Draymond should be playing *at most* the role of the 7th man
2) JK will flame out wherever he lands. Even wiseman was better.
3) If Kerr started Will every game he’d be ROY
4) Most of the Warriors have no idea how to play with or utilize Steph

I mean - I was disappointed with dems in the legislation in the first place cause it was obvious this would be the outcome the moment they were like “minus any redactions for things classified”
Basically anything can be categorized as classified.
It made it immediately merely performative.

Hey Kerr, please sit JK again. Preferably until forever.
Put someone with better decision making like Richard’s in.

Inherited two Nest learning thermostats - abysmal devices. Anyone know how to make them stop learning / if there’s an app where their schedule is actually manageable?

On Tesla’s current trajectory they will become a blip of a footnote in EV history within 8 years - but at what point does its stock fall?

Hottest Take: Anthropic knows they are cooked and believe that once the bubble pops data centers will revert to being more traditional infra. Bun is a play for their future cloud offering.
if Anthropic's going to blow billions of dollars and destroy the earth we may as well get a fast JS runtime out of it

I’m a warriors fan and this was still one of my favorite moments.
An all-time great defender, trying to jaw and get in the head and space of the young star … young star just cooly taking care of business and letting him know he can do whatever he wants…

They called a foul on the floor but Wemby slamming on Draymond on the inbounds is cinema and Wemby let Dray know after the slam

Still boggles my mind that outside of jsonapi there’s not a single serviceable spec of rest/rest-ish out there. People blame REST for a lot of problems that are really just lack-of-spec.

Most of the folks “on welfare” in my life have been republicans and all of them don’t think that’s what “welfare” is and that there’s some other thing called welfare that just pays people shit tons of cash.
… and they don’t like it mostly cause they don’t get that cash too.
… and they don’t like it mostly cause they don’t get that cash too.
That’s the wild part for me to.
The people that need and use it the most, hate it the most based on nothing but propaganda.
It’s madness.

The Republican messaging behind SNAP has really done a number on people’s brain. Especially the demographic that gets it.
