Spending on Social Security + Medicare exceed defense spending in the USA.

At some point, we will have a reckoning here. Politicians keep kicking the can down the road.

Selling a home right now in the USA sure is difficult. Property values are up, interest rates are high, and mortgage applications are very low.

To make matters worse, more mortgages in some areas are "underwater" -- the value of the home is well below what is owed to the bank on the mortgage.

Wow, if you hop on a Mullvad vpn endpoint that exits in Switzerland, the YouTube ads are WAAAAAY more entertaining. 👀

If you use #Fedora on #AWS cloud, amazon-ec2-utils is headed your way with some helpful udev rules and tools.

Now you can manage block devices using the same "sdX" conventions used in the AWS console and API. 😉

It's on the way to #EPEL for #CentOS users, too! 🥳

Used car prices coming down in the USA. This isn't great for new car buying as dealers will offer less on a trade. Dealers still aren't moving much on new car pricing (yet).

I totally missed this development, but systemd allows you to set environment variables across the whole system in: ~/.config/environment.d/*.conf

This makes it easy to apply environment variables in wayland/sway.

For someone trying to #run longer distances (I can do 10K in an hour but I want to run a half marathon), should I be aiming for a particular step cadence or ground contact time?

Currently #running slowly doing base runs and mixing in some sprints/threshold runs. Cadence is usually around 165-175 steps/min now.

Health care spending in the USA is wild. 97% of the spending done on the top 50%.

Over half of the health care spending is spent on the top 5%. 👀

Machine learning and #AI reminds me so much of the early heyday of OpenStack and Kubernetes.

Everything is moving so rapidly that most of the blog posts, videos and other docs no longer apply. 🐇

What a great idea! If I open the dev console in Firefox while on the threads.net site, there's a warning to be careful about what someone tells you to paste in there.

Housing supply in the US is up, mainly because:

1. More people are listing homes for sale
2. Fewer buyers are buying homes

It's not a good combination.

So I've got this empty concrete pad on the side of my house.

It used to have a rotted out 12x24' shed on it, but I demolished that last fall and figured I could do something better... 🧵
