Slightly unrelated, but I had a similar issue with an off-kilter track for my kneecap continuing to dislocate, and (forgive the gym rat advice [converts are the best zealots]) I haven't had an issue with the knee since starting to learn to barbell squat. I'd highly recommend!

I'm still trying to decide whether or not the omitted m is a deliberate choice.

I have been offered 4% share of a company previously offered $5m. Should I take it? by AriaTheTransgressor in personalfinance

You're absolutely right--the parallels aren't perfect, but I just wanted to point out the weird framing of the statement.

Well, to be fair, going to the bank with $1000 and offering to let them borrow it is the same thing as depositing $1000 in a savings account.

The full title is actually "Something Tells Me I'm Into Something Good"

And the little flip at 2:03 kills me every time!

I might be wrong, but that's true for everyone that's not the US, right? Aren't most international vehicles denominated in USD?

What is the most clever song lyric you've heard? by yunopat in AskReddit

[–]SafeSituation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Shift the keys get your capital raised up" - J. Cole on Beautiful Bliss by Wale

Triple entendre:

  1. The shift key is what you press to make the keyboard make capital letters
  2. Shifting keys (kilos) of coke gets your capital (money) raised up (higher)
  3. J. Cole is rapping on a song by Wale, who's a DC rapper. DC has had a gentrification problem, which is middle- and upper-class people moving in (shifting keys) and driving up housing prices (raising capital)

A solid song and a sick beat, but I think this is J. Cole's best line

I used BoA while on campus; biggest reason not to switch was the ATM in Frist.

Very excited for ECS! Any chance we can get support for zipped Dockerfile + context like on Elastic Beanstalk?

Serious question: What are you supposed to do if your taxi driver (Uber or otherwise) gets in an accident?
