PaddleMaster,

Looks great!

PaddleMaster,

Ha! Enjoy it! Sounds like it’ll be fun!

PaddleMaster,

I’d really like if this line of work wasn’t completely doom and gloom all the time. I’m burnt out of telling people what seems like extremely dramatic, doomed scenarios of the “state of security” all the time. I feel like I’m always the asshole in the room all the time.

I’m assuming any risk management or actuary job is similar. It can be soul crushing sometimes.

PaddleMaster,

Gloves, long sleeves, and pants. You’ll need pull the roots out, or you’ll be “pruning” the poison more often than you’d want.

Poison ivy doesn’t like well manicured areas. If you’re walking through property that’s owned by others, I’ll make an assumption that you have permission. I’d talk to the owner and ask if you can take a weed whacker to the area around the path when it gets overgrown. Do that enough to keep it from overgrowing and it might find a new direction to grow.

PaddleMaster,

Why would he even be a commencement speaker?

PaddleMaster, (edited )

And most news papers were acquired by the same handful of media companies. In turn these companies ravaged local markets and there’s just no coverage of the actual truth, even on local happenings.

There’s an article about my hometown covered by NY times or something (I forget, it’s been a few years). We had a flourishing newspaper that employed a decent amount of the community, when that article came out (2010ish) the same company had 3 reporters and 5 staff. The newspaper would cover legitimate issues locally and nationally. They had amazing journalists that promoted great things happening too (local studies, non profits doing the hard work to benefit the community, etc). Basically, the boring stuff that isn’t flashy enough for social media. And now it’s all gone.

I legitimately have a difficult time finding news stories on any platform that I can trust.

Edit: I just read this, different angle to the same problem web.archive.org/web/20240512160438mp_/…/678271/

PaddleMaster,

It’s clever enough to show success in many countries and latch on to MAGA. They’ll use those countries as the experiment and use the successful methods in the countries they oppose.

I found it interesting that these programs are trying to unite the extreme right and extreme left together.

Being on the defense of these ever changing methods will exhaust us, and they will be successful if they keep at it long enough.

PaddleMaster,

I cannot wait for the day we unite and eat the rich!

PaddleMaster,

International competition is really amazing, it can drive innovation and make governments spend a ton of money on good things for society. It’s probably one of the biggest pros.

But the US banning Chinese products (more than just cars) only delays the inevitable. China is producing cheaper products. Are they better? I can’t really answer that, since I don’t know. But I’d be willing to buy a Chinese EV. US auto industry would collapse if China was allowed to enter and honestly, we deserve it.

The US is going to go through a strange and difficult transition when we are no longer the world leader on R&D.

PaddleMaster,

Some of that, yes. I work for a university that’s government adjacent, so we have to get audited pretty often. Part of that is proving that we STIG and conform to other frameworks. But within certain labs, access is remote only, so I’m not sure how they would handle having a PAW, when there’s probably just a few admin accounts that have strict rules and limits applied.

PaddleMaster,

This needs to be propagated. Grass can be fairly low maintenance compared to other gardening, but nobody should complain about alternatives. I enjoy some clover coverage.

Many many years ago I saw a home in NJ that was all sand with some rock formations. I always wondered how the maintenance was for that. I’d personally never do that, but thought it was interesting.

PaddleMaster,

Project Management crap. It’s the money season in the government, so I get to ask for lots of money to try to do cool things.

PaddleMaster,

That’s a neat project. Are you looking for trends, or something specific?

PaddleMaster,

That’s neat. I’m curious about this now. With “normal” search engines that have generally gone to shit, AI chat bots are on trend to give better results. If the robots.txt file is blocked from OpenAI, can I assume it hits other chatbots? And would that extend to Google/bing?

PaddleMaster,

In the Philippines, you have to pay the hospital before receiving care. If you don’t pay, you don’t get treatment. This includes emergency.

PaddleMaster,

I’ll third this. I get this message on just about every website.

PaddleMaster,

I was going to try to explain it, but realized I’m not very good at calling menus and such their proper names. So whatever I tell you wouldn’t be very helpful.

support.apple.com/guide/iphone/…/ios

Apple also has a YouTube video that’s about 5 minutes long. The article is probably faster.

I’m not a power user, so I don’t use the majority of features on my phone. I generally set my “do not disturb” at bedtime. It allows calls through from my favorite contact list and my morning alarm. I have friends that set focus time and they love it.

Edit to add to the conversation. I disable all notifications, except for things I really want: calls, FaceTime, texts and to update my food diary if I haven’t done so before 2pm.

When I need to use Uber, I just keep watch on the app. I guess I’m a bit of a psychopath. But when I’m waiting for a car, I like to watch it move on the map. There’s nothing else I would use that would need me to have a notification.

PaddleMaster,

This is devastating. There was construction on the bridge at the time, so less traffic, but the construction crew was there.

PaddleMaster,

Ha! Very appropriate response.

It’s too bad the programs that actually help people aren’t given more money and people to make it large scale. Instead, we get this.

PaddleMaster,

Same. TJs hurts the most. Thinking they were “good” and they have a lot of quality products.

PaddleMaster,

I cannot believe an article like this would use the language “girls falling pregnant”. Nobody falls pregnant.

PaddleMaster,

Probably both. From my limited understanding the country is so poor, sex tourism of girls (and probably boys) has become normalized.

PaddleMaster,

I use KeePassium

PaddleMaster,

Sounds thrilling!!

I’ll be on vacation for our audit next week. I’m thrilled to miss it.

PaddleMaster,

Sounds like a fun assignment! Glad you got some interesting results!
