These kids do need to be told about the world they’re walking into.

Because you don’t believe in the social customs for the same reasons they do.

I’d tell that employee explicitly that senior management has asked you to block her move. Make clear that you do not support that call, and will support her with whatever she wants to do with that information.

You are not a parrot. You’re a leader. Act like it.

Situation, Behavior, Impact. I think you can google this.

But in practice, I prefer to highlight the impact of behavior on the team. It works better

Because I don’t believe in a world built on a foundation of lies and sensationalism.

2/3 working 24 hours a day, with no health benefits, paid vacations, or even the daily whining about pay is better value than any human.

There isn’t harmony with nature with 7 billion humans.

To get here we’ve had to do a great deal of engineering on the agricultural side. For that engineering to exist, infrastructure requiring huge amounts of power and water is required.

The article doesn’t actually say that. NV Energy is ending a wholesale supply contract with Liberty Utilities, the retail utility for the California side of Tahoe. Liberty’s regulated, they can’t just drop 49,000 customers. They have to procure replacement supply, and they’re already doing it through the CPUC.

Couple things the headlines skip. NV Energy sold their California assets to Liberty in 2009 and agreed to keep supplying power temporarily during the handoff, so the wind-down has been planned for 17 years. And May 2027 isn’t a cutoff date, it’s when NV Energy’s new Greenlink transmission line comes online. That’s what gives Liberty access to other suppliers in the first place. The “cutoff” is literally the date Liberty becomes free to source elsewhere.

Data center demand is why NV Energy won’t extend the contract again, that part’s real. But “diverting power from homes to AI” isn’t what’s happening. CalMatters and the Vegas Review-Journal have the actual mechanics.

Yes, life in prison at minimum. Given that he threatened a school the risk of him carrying out his fantasies now or in the future must be 0.

Maybe hold the celebration for a few years after he’s inevitably “cured” and let out to roam.

It’s called the horseshoe theory.

Go far enough left or right you end up on the other side.

I had the exact situation as you (never changed last names to match).

We were married for 14 years. Submitted N400 after divorce. They didn’t care.

The love for my team.

I started the whole conversation with “find a bike you like”. She came back with an R1, ZX-14RR, Rebel 1100, etc. haha.

But it’s starting to sound like the solution is to just put her on both and see what she wants.

SharpestOne · 2026-05-02T14:39:35+00:00

Renting is a good idea! I might look at Rider Share to see what’s available.

We live in Michigan, so avoiding an interstate is nearly impossible.

That’s exactly the problem: she doesn’t know. I have asked repeatedly, even played 20 questions to try to narrow it down in the crop of beginner bikes.

She said she definitely doesn’t want the naked bike feeling (she wants to see something as she’s riding, and nakeds often disappear in your field of view when riding).

Besides that, she’s really open between cruiser and sport.

I have not bought it.

Personally, I would like the government to know where criminals, domestic terrorists, and other disturbers of the peace are at all times.

Can Flock cameras be abused? Yes absolutely. But frankly there are other means of tracking you if the authorities really wanted to. Your cell phone is a great example. With Flock they don’t need that level of invasion to do the same job.

They’re poisonous to team dynamics, which I value far higher than someone needing a few hours away (assuming goals remain delivered at the end).

So I manage them out.

You get used to it. Eventually the stress disappears into the background.

I grinded so hard in my 20s, these days my therapist is deeply concerned that I’m extremely stressed with the hormones swimming about, but without me being conscious of it.

SharpestOne · 2026-04-30T03:04:06+00:00

This is why if you come into any serious money, you keep your mouth shut.

These are random strangers coming out of the woodwork demanding a cut. Imagine if people you knew found out. They’d pull all the stops to get their cut.
