Considering 40% of shuttle orbiters suffered catastrophic failures, maybe there should have been more eye batting

wikipedia says there are 135 million homes in the US. So kicking out all the undocumented home owners would free up 1.2% of the housing stock. I don't think that's going to solve the housing crisis

Am I psychic? I think I can spot someone else who didn't pass the bar on their first try.

Took me so long to debug a thing where it turned out someone was using Dublin Julian Date as a default.

It is wild to think how if your house got robbed in the 90s it was almost a certainty that they would take your tv and vcr. Because those items could be sold at a pawn shop for a significant amount of money.

Wow, the "igon value" article was all the way back in 2002.

And in Alien they do such a good job of explicitly breaking the safety protocol.

Someone asked what was the worst movie in the last 10 years and I was sad Prometheus had aged out because it's still the worst.

Seattle has a "fire season" now. Every year there are a few days where wildfire smoke blows in and the air quality is horrendous. This never happened in the 80s and 90s. Maybe a few days of stagnant air and smog would build up triggering a burn ban, but not waves of wildfire smoke.

Wasn't there a clip of Obama where he pushed back against eliminating insurance middle men because, "those are good middle class jobs". We can't even get the slam dunk tradeoffs made.
