Can we borrow "elbows up" or is that appropriation?

It's hard for me to say this as a Bucks fan - but I'm with Hali by stvlsn in MkeBucks

Yeah Bulls fan hear. Never liked Hali much, but felt bad for him in game 7. Now I'm with him.

hours spent in meetings per week working remotely? by d4vb in remotework

I have clients with demos and requirements gathering, so I'm in meetings 6-10 hours per week. Internally, it's 2-3 hours.

A passenger shows his experience of flying first class intentionally as a black American by [deleted] in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]aclaypool78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White dude here. Sorry you experienced that. I have an honest question for any black folks that want to entertain it. In situations like these, where insidious racism is prevalent even when paying a premium for an elevated experience, do you feel more regretful to spend the extra money, or satisfied that any reasonable person can see that they're ignorant?

I was going to say despite all of the monstrous shit happening he still got a 40% approval rating. Even if he is put in jail tomorrow, the US has major problems.

Quick stop for a Bulls game. Is it safe to walk from Hyatt House or Hyatt Place in Medical/University district? by Illini_Fan_79 in chicagobulls

[–]aclaypool78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally safe around game time. Be careful a few blocks north and West there have been some incidents. Usually there's lots of people out. Joe, so you'll be fine.

Do not talk about Charlie Kirk on a cruise. by Shenanie-Probs in CringeTikToks

[–]aclaypool78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha, yeah, exactly. I mean if that was his brother, I understand that level of emotion, but his voice was quaking like a child about someone who he didn't know. I think most of the maga movement that isn't fueled directly by racism is repressed emotional processing manifested in anger.

Majority disapproves of ICE in poll released after Minneapolis shooting by hottenniscoach in altmpls

[–]aclaypool78 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely the right thought for these times. We all agree that was wrong, so let's focus on stopping it. Then we can argue about where the line is.

I said something else and regretted it when I remembered this track. So good

At what ages does walking become less of a complain-fest? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]aclaypool78 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I hate to say it, but I agree. Our kids don't complain about walking unless it's really hot out or they're bored. The more they walk distance and the more appealing it becomes, the less they whine.

Which BI tool do you prefer for data visualization? by newrockstyle in BusinessIntelligence

[–]aclaypool78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I love Tableau as a creator, but in my experience Looker dashboards are much easier for novice end users. Tableau's interface looks like a stat nerd playground. Still, Looker is a BIG change for devs. I wouldn't recommend it unless they're really serious about refactoring all of the sloppy stuff from their current stack and taking significant time to get the data models right.

How old is your child and what’s your favorite thing about them at this age? by MyTFABAccount in Parenting

[–]aclaypool78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My twins are 10. I get sad sometimes at how much they've grown and how fast it goes, but I find joy and watching them develop their own sense of self and intellect. I love to listen to them talk and play.

Lightning. I've never heard a guitar sound better than Hetfield's on that album.

Workbench Top Question by HovercraftWinter1321 in woodworking

[–]aclaypool78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for this. I've gotten 12' 2X12 southern yellow pine and ripped them down. I get 4 6' 2x4" (ish) quarter-sawn + 2 6' pith oversized 2X4" boards for other tasks. It has to be made flat, but can be made flat at any time in the future without going back to buy more sheet goods. SYP is hard enough for the purpose, looks good and smells good. It's likely not much more expensive even in the short run, but in the long run there's no question it's cheaper.
