In order... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Kaepernick https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/1*8XU3sY_mbNlSFoUz1vccKQ.jpeg https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/30/books/book-ban-us-schools.html Alright, so the second one is a bit tongue in cheek. Cancel culture has existed forever, they just called...

I don't get the idea of a company micro-monitoring an employee. There should be some kind of deliverable/metric/KPI that can be used to determine whether an employee is working or not. Why try to monitor someone's mouse clicks or camera when you can just look at work accomplished? Have some...

For me, going in to work will do nothing but add distractions to my day. I'm in IT and I manage a team of 20 worldwide, none of which work anywhere near my office. My company is still making me go back in. Now I get to look forward to constant drivebys by people who think anyone in IT should be...

"Challenging wank" really got me.

Well, it is a Biden victory. He campaigned on a 1.3T infrastructure promise, and now it is coming closer to reality. When a president helps deliver on a campaign promise, it's a victory. However, it's the kind of victory that should have no losing side. It passed the Senate through the strength...

Just be aware that we don't yet know how much more transmissible the Delta variant is outdoors. Luckily the baseline for outdoor transmission is very low for the original virus, but the data isn't there yet for this new one.

Well, I always look at it this way. If you're in a car wreck and they cut you out with the jaws of life, do you want the ambulance to take you to the hospital or to church? As it turns out, doctors are people too, with all the flaws that come with it. There is an old medical joke that applies...

How come people who think there isn't enough research in the COVID vaccination, despite the high level of research and testing that went into them, will immediately latch on to a drug with a barely-there small sample study? A drug that also has side effects, some of them...
