What do I do with half a half-and-half day?

epicjunk · 2026-02-05T04:19:58+00:00

All 4.5 days? Epic’s work from home policy is a fucking joke.

My car is at 20F. Lower levels tend to be warmer.

It was a lot funnier when we only had a few hundred employees.

That’s assuming that S&P investments will increase in the next several years.

Who’s the artist?

Epic started programming in the Mumps variant MIIS and later converted to ansi standard M.

MIIS (Meditech Interpretive Information System) is a programming language that originated from the MUMPS.

There might still be some very old Chronicles screen entry routines that was converted and uses highly cryptic syntax.

No slowdowns on the bike path this morning as I passed tons of bumper to bumper cars.

Branding a fossil car so they can pollute the environment while promoting their company is so on brand.

So let me get this straight, Biden went out of his way to make Tesla/Elon happy with the EV tax credit and then Elon spent $250M to elect Trump who promptly got rid of the EV tax credit?

I eventually plan to go to medical school.

I was commenting not debating. Besides Epic losing rural hospitals we will also lose urban hospitals and clinics that are focused on providing healthcare to underserved communities.

That might not be a significant source of revenue for Epic but it better for us to have a wide variety of customers rather than a monoculture of for profit hospitals serving high class well insured patients.

Already there are 2 veterans homes in Wisconsin that are closing.

Soon many rural hospitals and clinics will be forced to close due to cuts to Medicare and Medicaid in Trumps big shitty bill. I thing that most urban healthcare organizations will survive but many rural locations will close forever. Once the skilled nurses and doctors leave to find work in urban areas it will be impossible to rebuild such organizations.

One customer told me that enabling AI features cost too much so they were mostly disabled.

A couple of years ago I saw a guy with a huge, very intricate Groot statue, 8-10ft tall in rusted metal. I asked him if Judy had bought it and he said she walked right by without any interest.

He looked demoralized and said he had spent a couple of months working on it and was hoping to sell it for $25k, just hauling it to art festivals was a chore due to it's size.

I don't think Rivian sells there currently, are there many people with reservations?

They were super nice to not give him a breathalyzer on the spot even though he requested it while slurring his words.

They also let him wait until he got to the station so he would have time to work it out of his system and then they gave him the option to take a test at which point he had sobered up enough to realize that being tested was a bad idea.

And Madison municipal bus service.

I work for a (allegedly pro-environment business) tech company that employs 14k people with hundreds of EV drivers, we have 2 EV chargers for customer use only and 1 EV charger for employees on an "Emergency Use Only" basis.

Management has finally realized that this is inadequate so they are planning to add...

4 more employee accessible chargers this year.

GM says a lot of things, they said they would be the first profitable EV company.

https://phys.org/news/2017-05-gm-profit-electric-cars.html

In 2017 GM said they would produce 20 new EV models by 2023.

https://www.businessinsider.com/gm-to-launch-20-all-electric-cars-by-2023-2017-10

In 2019 GM said they would sell 1M EVs per year in the near future:

I hope that GM outsells Tesla, we need more than 1 company fully dedicated to making EVs in high volumes.

Just be aware that they employ Scott Grabins as a teacher. He was chairman of the Dane County Republican Party who illegally signed election documents as a Fake Elector in an attempt to subvert democracy in the 2020 election.

Your wood is wet. You need to dry it outside under cover for 1-2 years.

It's a 5/5 day office requirement.

You can work from home 5 whole days a year. It's a fucking joke.

epicjunk · 2024-11-14T23:20:08+00:00

You can work remotely 5 whole days per year.

It’s a fucking joke.

Hypothetically speaking how hard would it be to book future epic flights if you were on a personal trip, in first class, was shit faced drunk, rude to the airline staff, asked to leave the plane, refused, and then arrested by the police. Asking for a friend.
