If I hire you to trim a tree, or really do anything, and at some point your chainsaw blade touches me without my explicit request, you are getting a very bad review on Google Maps.

Somewhere I have a well-reviewed British book about beer (Michael Jackson, I think), and the only thing I remember about it is that Budweiser got an ok-to-good rating as an example of Pilsner. Maybe just the export? I think the real lesson here is the Pilsner is just a lovely beer varietal.

When my hospital was setting up the new EHR system I was one of the super-users tasked with getting in and seeing how it needed to be customized for us etc.

I never remembered this until I saw it again, but on setting up my profile for the first time years ago I typed a bunch of stupid poo poo in the “About me” blanks of my profile and then immediately forgot about it because it never popped up again.

Today I found it again. It’s the patient-facing profile that people have seen when I have been messaging them with results, help, etc. for years.



Oops.

Are you using Firefox? A lot of sites see their built-in tracking protection as ad-blocking. If you turn off enhanced tracking protection from the little shield up by the URL it'll fix it, if that's the cause. But enjoy your tracking ads.

Oh man it’s going to be great if they start banning Firefox users for having tracking protection turned on. The advocacy folks at Mozilla live for poo poo like that. :getin:

Even then the people who lost their shirts in it had real physical tulips that didn't randomly get stolen by the truckload.

I think actually they mostly had rotten tulips bulbs that were stored in some facility they had never been near, and that they never saw physical tulips at any point. Tulips were mostly traded as securities and derivatives (which is why they were able to be traded so quickly in the heat of the bubble; nobody had to wait for shipping before selling them on to the next sucker).

And I’m 100% certain that some of them bought tulips that did not exist.

This boils down to how well you think you can invest the money you have vs how much interest you will get charged on a loan.

In this case I’m pretty sure that it’s more that his comp package is mostly stock, and if he were to sell $44 billion of Tesla stock to finance the Twitter purchase, he would tank the stock and gently caress himself because that’s where most of his wealth is.

The comp package is all unvested option grants so it is trivial to rescind.
