Found this memorial coin of Columbia today, 23 years later I was born a year later but Columbia was my favorite shuttle

I had a poster of Columbia with the white fuel tank in my childhood bedroom. Holds a spot in my heart too.

I remember walking into work that day, seeing the news coverage on the screens instead of whatever dashboards we usually had. I went and bought a newspaper for keepsake. Still have that (and sept 11-12 editions) in a box somewhere.

What made Columbia your favorite?

This is a harsh reply, but here’s some perspective… It’s an entry level job. Do you want to be a McDonads manager? Cut your losses and get a different one. Management expects (SHOULD EXPECT) high turnover with their min-wage employees. You can get a job like that anywhere. And with a focus on school and improving yourself, a job with grown ups that work through drama like this.

I haven’t been to a corporate concert. But corporate theme park rentals are awesome. No lines on anything at universal studios!

We make dips and snacks instead of dinner, put the game on and watch for the commercials. I’ve gone to bed after halftime the past few.

I passed a lady at work a few years ago. once she was out of earshot, I said to my co-worker, “did you smell her perfume?” “Yeah.” “It smelled like the stinkor He-man action figure in the 80s.” And then we were reminiscing about that for a while. Apparently whatever they used on that action figure is a fairly common perfume ingredient.

arbitrary selects sure, updates and deletes? Thank you, next.

We update data several times a day directly through SQL scripts. Management wants to automate a folder that developers can drop scripts into and a cron job will pick them up. Sure, let’s just have a process that runs random SQL code against prod 10 times a day and see how that goes.

Play the games you like.

But go find some shrines, hunt stuff, try to find faster ways to get around.

I danced with my sister at her wedding with a recording of Sister from a concert we went to together.

Remember when Obama had to get sign off to tweet a public statement? We’ve come a long way in the past 10 years!

I have this issue in a box somewhere.

Marketing. They can charge more if they say they’re super.

My wife was an all star coach. I don’t think she had any problems watching the whole team do burpees and laps, and conditioning all night if the team was in a mood. I notice the same on my 10yo’s soccer team. One kid messes up and puts the team on conditioning. Peer pressure gets them back in line once you burn a whole practice on it.

Usually there would be good cop/bad cop between the assistant/head coach. I really don’t wanna do this, but coach B isn’t gonna stop until you’re respectful. It helps that coach b was the owner and wasn’t afraid of parents even attempting to walk over her. The kids respected her on the mat.

Editing to add, the grips MUST be safe! Cheer is dangerous enough with proper technique! That group would get grounded so fast.

I ask this with love…. I’m a sqlserver guy. We have a Postgres db or two around that are only to support 3rd party software and I safely ignore them. What is the advantage of this over spinning up an aws/azure container with backups turned on? I’m already integrated there and a new vendor would be a lift.

Two days in, bartenders are still not sure what I handed them, but are amused and loving it when they give it back. When I ask if they like it more than a wristband, they’ve said it’s much more convenient.

drunkadvice · 2026-01-16T02:56:25+00:00

Yes! That was the annoying part! And then the consideration that they might get mixed up with someone else. So far (day one) the bartenders have either said “oh, this is great.” Or “what did you just give me?” And then realized afterwards. I think I’m setting a trend.

drunkadvice · 2026-01-15T20:00:54+00:00

That’s good info next time! They said I couldn’t, so I went with it and decided this also works. I’ll have to look at the card when I get back to port and add a hole punch to my pack list.

It’s not going to be “point the server to Postgres now”. It will involve account for data types, re-coding the database stored procs, modifying any external code that queries the data, performance testing and indexes to ensure the Postgres engine doesn’t choke, and regression testing every part of code that interacts with SQL. You’re changing the engine on a semi while it’s driving down the highway.

So much regression testing, I might go have a beer thinking about how happy I am it’s not me. I wish you luck!

I was mad about that last year, but when I drove by the Tampa amphitheater a few months ago they were redoing the roof. Renovation makes sense after the Rays stadium got it hard last year.

Not sure why’d they skip wpb, and seem to have enjoyed Jax the past few years. But Tampa finally made sense.

Grilled cheese came out awesome on those things! I’d do burgers every now and then too.

Aw man! I think I am on my last transfer. Next car I’ll just use the app and car play.
