^^^ One of the Germans at work recommended me that pilsner. Said its brewed in the region hes from so he goes and gets it a lot for a taste of home.

On the IPA topic. IPAs are delicious, but sessions are where its at. Nice flavor but light enough to trow 6 back. Really the only beer I typically dont like are really wheaty or really yeasty beers.

IDK what it is but Pilsners and Kolsch seem to be REALLY popular this season. It's not even summer yet and that's all I'm hearing about in the blogs, instagrams, breweries, and so on.

I unironically enjoy super hoppy IPAs. Then again I also love really dark really vinegary flemish sours and oud bruins so I may just be nuts.

11:30 - Arrive at airport

1:15 - board airplane
1:15 - 4:30 - sit at the terminal because they somehow managed to break the front gear landing light bracket, then a circuit breaker popped and they determined they should replace part of the flight director while maintenance was in there (I'm happy they fixed the plane, but I wasn't happy about sitting longer than the flight duration)
Time is meaningless to me - land in NY. Prep for interview.

It's true, and I agree that React is better than Angular, it just sends me through the roof when people choose a framework solely due to buzz and/or love for the maintainer(s). Those seem to be the two primary criteria when people put together a set of front end tools.

Lagers are in fact getting big. Partially because they're delicious and partially because the hops market is totally unable to meet demand, resulting in hugely inflated prices.

Kolsch is also big these days -- in the store we've been unable to get the Kolsch yeast from one of the major yeast companies for like 2 months, until today. Presumably their commercial demand was so high there was none available for the homebrew scale.

Its pretty hosed up how the hops market developed. Nearly all of the crop for the sexy new varieties are under contract for large brewers or distributors, and a lot of the brewers that have contracts get more than they need so they then sell them to other brewers, further inflating prices. The distributors do this too.

Well like most acquired tastes (beer in general), it tastes lovely at first and it grows on you basically. Like I said I'm old so when I started drinking beer in the 80's there wasn't much of a choice back then, it was all pretty much the same poo poo, so I drank Bud because that's what was always around and I grew to like it. These days I don't drink much, but Budweiser takes me back to my young whipper snapper days and it still tastes good to me :shrug:

I suppose if I was drinking double and triple IPAs every day I'd get used to that too, but it's way to strong for my palate at the moment.

Still no ac. Dipshit maintenance came up, replaced the heater, and surprise surprise, breaker still trips as soon as he switches the thermostat to cool.

He brought up another maintenance guy... who I'm pretty sure just cussed him out in 4 or 5 languages, then dragged him outside to show him how to electricity on the outside unit.

e: now it's a race against the clock for them to fix/replace the outside unit... really nasty storms moving in pretty soon. They did tell me they have a spare one they can put in temporarily if it comes to that, at least.

Why yes, because it's always the heater that makes the breaker trip when on AC. What?
"Show him how to electricity". I love that phrasing.

That was some ugly stuff they took out.

I can't even get mad at this point. At least they had another one, and we (maint guy and myself) looked this one over closely before throwing it in.

Isn't that usually an installation problem on window units? They just dribble out the back, and have to be installed with a bit of a slope to the outside. I noted on the one I use in my garage that the fan on the condenser is designed to dip into the condensate and spray it onto the condenser for a little bit more evaporative cooling.
