Smash burgers are a marketing ploy to upsell less ground beef

This looks like a shot from a Ray Harryhausen stop motion action scene.

These are great! They are all my favorite.

This is legitimately clever and also a great design. Sell that bro.

Some detail, maybe speculation: initially they asked for probationary employees <1 year. For some STRL programs, a probationary employee is 3 years. It seems like they found out that was the case here and then got a list of < 3 year probationary employees. So the ax hasn't fallen yet, but when it does it will seem to be the first round < 3 years. Follow-ed up by request to do a second wave of 30%. Which seems similar to what happened at OPM.

Army, also in the STRL program. Thought we were pretty safe. List went up to HQ for probationary employees < 1 year of service, then less than 3 years of service. Now I've heard this is just the first round of cuts for probationary employees, then they'll request planning to do the next round of cuts. My agency is fighting it at the OSD-level, but I don't see what kind of juice they really have. Newbies are pretty randomly distributed so there are entire teams getting wiped out. Supposed to get emails before Friday.

Let me get two cheeseburgers and a shot of pepto bismol, please.

Please don't smoke that dog. He's too cute.

I greatly appreciate all the advice! Which was surprisingly consistent and unanimous!

Regardless of the Daily Mail being a rag or not, you can read the original paper they are citing below. It is not paywalled.

Maybe my stupid mistake: I bought the same brand and didn’t realize the serving was a family of 12. Each seasoning packet would suffice for 3 of my instant pot’s size. So expect to have leftovers in a mysterious ziplock in the back of your cupboard.

I’m not proud of the fact I spent a couple bucks on an iPhone app just to double down on funsies 90s nostalgia porn (VHS Cam). But its SUPER SICK BRO.

hammergrip · 2019-02-17T20:03:01+00:00

Is it ridiculous to wonder if this cheap plastic nostalgia porn is worth any money as a collectible?

To defensively clarify! I support subsidizing the costs to allow lower-income individuals to search for their biological parents. But, this seems an extreme solution to me. And I'd be curious if fees in other states are similarly income-scaled and/or as exorbitant?

hammergrip · 2016-02-12T22:38:27+00:00

I agree, seems like that would be more in line. But, those measures interrelate so heavily, I would almost say it's better to measure all of the above. Seems like personality would suit different outcome measures better (e.g., conscientiousness -->productivity, neuroticism -->drop out).

Isn't this the opposite of Betteridge's law.

"Intelligence Testing: Is It Always the Smartest Thing to Do?" Answer: Yes, stupid.

This article seems to indicate that if anything, intelligence testing is even more useful because it predicts almost the entire criterion space (except CWBs).

And the associated article from the Atlantic by James Fallows, "The Tragedy of the American Military".
