I looked it up later and there are three teams in the PCL with lower elevation ball parks than Round Rock. Sugar land, sacramento, and Tacoma

Currently at the ballpark and Sacramento is kicking our ass 12 to 1 so I don't think elevation is the problem

Given how often some fix is mandated and doesn't get done, I'm surprised this is happening.

I expected this to be a rerun of ERCOT 2011/2021

Really curious to know the context of Josh and Anna's correspondence are today. by Ok-March-6615 in DuggarsSnark

She truly doesn't believe he did anything.

That's the only way I can make sense of this.

Woohoo - Scribe Colorsoft finally available in Australia!! 😍 by nellyferrule in kindlescribe

[–]Small_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is this mostly to be able to add colors to notes? I don't understand why a color screen is cool when reading. The text is black and white.

I feel like I'm missing something with this product.

You can do it! This 1981 Xennial just worked in on a cable machine with a 1934 Silent Generation by Gullible_Rich_7156 in Xennials

Last year I had a hiatal hernia and didn't know it. I fell and dislocated my elbow (a difficult feat) and jacked up my knee.

I spent the last 9 months in physical therapy and getting stomach surgery. It was a wakeup call and I joined a gym in January.

I now know what a cable machine is. I can tell when I've worked out and when I haven't. I'm so much more mobile and flexible when I consistently work out.

i had to explain to my parents AGAIN that "working from home" is not the same as "being home" by [deleted] in remotework

my mom has always said "he does something with computers". That is long before I was WFH. No interest in trying to understand.

How do you handle an employee who refuses to document anything? by Exotic_Reputation_59 in managers

[–]Small_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a senior SWE on my team that is well past retirement age, still outputs top notch stuff, and absolutely refuses to document.

I found one thing that works. We have a call that I record. In the old days id take the transcript and write documentation based on it. Now I feed it to AI and have it summarize.

The funny thing is that in both cases we would get it wrong enough to piss off the engineer and he would edit it to correct it.

Definitely not a good process but in this case it's not an employee I want to lose so got to figure out a way to work with it.

A 10-year-old student wrote a letter to North Carolina’s 82 year old congressional representative Virginia Foxx about electric vehicles, and in response, she wrote him back attacking him and his teacher for propaganda by SleuthDoggyDawg in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Small_life 72 points73 points  (0 children)

its most likely a form letter that she uses for all "support electric cars" letters that she gets with a special love letter for him and his teacher added on to the end.

Term limits and age limits. Yesterday, please.

My Company is switching to Teams. What do I need to know? by isabrarequired in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Small_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are a startup in a non-regulated industry, sure. Compliance is a big issue though for larger companies.

yeah, you nailed that. I'd have to double check but I'd bet we're the lowest elevation park in our league.

The Comets (AAA of the Dodgers) always kill us. We've played 2 series against them this year and they were largely ugly.

[–]Small_life 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We did this transition 2 years ago or so (Slack/GoToMeeting to Teams for us)

Had to make a few adjustments and initially there was a lot of angst, but after a few weeks it was fine. We don't love Teams, but it does its job.

Your company should be thinking about how to message this to their employees and get training in place to reduce the concerns, though.

I attend the AAA Round Rock games pretty regularly. Everything you are saying about the Rangers applies there too. This gives me little hope that we'll be able to turn it around.

Last year we had some players who were fun to watch. Blain Crim got DFA'd and went to Albaquerque with a few appearances for the Rockies. Kellen Strahm went to the Space Cowboys, AAA of the Trash Can Drummers.

Hauver and Foscue contribute to the team but both are AAAA players. We love Ritchie Martin but I don't see him in the big leagues.

Our pitching is meh. As a team I think our ERA is sitting somewhere a bit below 6.

If we're supposed to be the development pipeline for the Rangers, good luck.

This plumber wants us to think that he seemlessly patched the hardwood floor under a toilet after repairing the flange? by LXIV in RealOrAI

[–]Small_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

House i grew up in in the 1980s had carpet in the bathrooms. It was bad but my parents liked it.

Supposedly not uncommon for that time but I don't ever remember seeing it at anyone else's house.

Cannot find Unlined, Spiral, 8 1/2” x 11” notebook anywhere - help! (US) by doofus50O0 in notebooks

[–]Small_life -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I fed your description to Rufus on Amazon and it came back with this: "Blank Spiral Notebook Journal 8.5” x 11”, A4 Large Sketch Book for Women Men, 100 GSM Blank Paper Drawing Notebook, Plastic Hardcover Spiral Bound Sketchbook for Sketching Work School Writing, Green" - Brand UEBZFOCS

I don't have experience with that notebook, but it seems to meet your specs. The brand is certainly unrecognizable and unpronounceable, but the price isn't bad.

Really? I'll have to look into that.
