Sometime last year I mentioned that Finland has a fast-track program for IT people who might want to come here. Here is the thing, now that it is running: https://shortlist.net/finland-works-usa/ Since you folks in the US have seen some nasty poo poo and I thought some of you might be interested in this.

Celine Dion concert in DC got postponed from September 2021 to April 2022. Good. But sad. I’ve had these tickets for over a year and this is the third time it’s been postponed. In April, it will be over two years since I bought the tickets. One day, Celine. One day.

https://twitter.com/qadir_sediqi/status/1415981268395827201?s=21 The video from yesterday included him riding with an Afghan commando unit in contact to include the hmmwv he was in taking an RPG to the turret plate, before they ultimately finished their extraction. Could say he was taking war reporter embedding to a very severe and dangerous level.

mlmp08 posted:drat, SOF boards have tankies, too? The only SOF guy on the hard left that I can think of is Stan Goff, a former Delta operator, Ranger and SF guy who got deeply involved with anti-war activism and the far left after he left the service. Also, if the board that Mustang was referencing was Professional Soldiers (run for and by current SF soldiers) then yeah- they’re creepy as hell these days. The members of that forum were part of what dissuaded me from doing 18X like 10-12 years ago (that and reading GIP). I checked the forums there before the inauguration and they had people discussing this QAnon claim that the military raided some place in Germany to recover a server that had proof of election fraud. I think they also deleted a bunch of threads about the Capitol insurrection as well. poo poo is creepy and toxic. Meanwhile, almost 100 dead and 1300 missing in Germany and Belgium from the floods. It seems like all of those things we were warned about in the 1990s are starting to happen, but my dudes have you heard of this Critical Race Theory thing?! That’s clearly what we should be tackling instead of the West Coast tiptoeing being uninhabitable and the rest of the world experiencing 100-year weather events on a monthly basis.

Especially due to the length (13 km) of the new constructed riverbed, the Inde River is a very good study area and a representative example showing that achieving a dynamic morphological equilibrium after a river relocation and restoration is possible after only one decade. I guess some people have a new paper to write.

One benefit of being rich that doesn’t get talked about enough is how roads are always taken care of better. I grew up in a poor rear end part of south Florida and you had no other choice when going home if it had been raining for any extended period of time; you had to go through flood waters.

drat these bike riders always breaking the rules! From Chicago yesterday: https://twitter.com/streetsblogchi/status/1415793187696881666?s=19 quote:The off-duty officer, 48, was driving north on Sacramento in a Toyota Tundra full-size pickup truck, police said. https://twitter.com/BrentToderian/status/1415774834827485185?s=19 And often the rules that are broken are done in a direct response to countless close calls where drivers negligently or willfully endanger the lives of folks on bikes. Going through a red light when clear, for example, is a way to put distance between yourself and the driver turning left or right who might try to murder you with their vehicle.

Instead of “why hasn’t he been cited?” they should stop being passive about it and just say he got away with it because he is a cop. But yeah I guess “why didn’t they give him a ticket?” is a valid concern when it resulted in someone’s death.

I had a Ron Paul delegate roommate who flirted with sovereign citizen ideas and while I agreed "orange juice cures cancer" sounded interesting I did try to discourage his excitement after he learned if cops pull you over they have to let you go if you claim to be a "traveler on the road." He had a compsci degree from a decent school but never had steady employment in Seattle as for some reason he always went through a scammy placement agency rather than directly applying to hundreds of open jobs.
