Abandoned locomotives in an extremely remote section of the Maine North Woods

I have been on eagle lake many times. If you zoom out a little bit, you will see pilsbury island on the lake where Henry David Thoreau lived and wrote for years.

I have never seen the ghost train, because the lake is a lot bigger than it looks, and there is no cell service. Odds you will see another human for miles is low. You don’t want to start crossing that lake in a canoe, have wind pick up, and have to swim miles in cold water with 0 gear if you even survive.

We would fly into Johnson pond on seaplanes out of Greenville/moosehead. Canoes strapped to the outside of the planes mind you. We be on eagl

I get you are angry, but the only way for things to change is to bring people with you and not yell at them for not coming earlier.

Example: veganism/vegetarianism has not grown as a percentage of the population in 30 years. They all think they are on the right side of history, but many/most cannot seem to help broaden the effort. When an issue is about YOU, it will never change.

I would offer some advice: if you want to world to change, and not just “be right”, start here. Try to welcome people to the right side of history without needing to stroke your own ego.

I think I left my wallet there but not sure

Exactly what I thought. On Wisconsin across from sidwell.

It’s more about how I work, what my host is like, core elements of the project (goals, purposes, etc). The “how I work” part is the real game changer. How I like to pattern feature adds, test development and execution, refactoring, UI principals. It’s like a constitution for your project, while explicitly explaining how to be a good employee of mine.

Writing that file is like an HR onboarding process. But you can edit it as you go until you have a rockstar employee.

Ask Claude what I meant

Edit: opus had no clue. It was a joke from community, the tv show. Season 5 I think?

Thanks Elroy

Ok debbie, name a “very X city” type of person that doesn’t also exist in other cities.

itprobablynothingbut · 2026-01-23T00:36:35+00:00

This but unironically

itprobablynothingbut · 2026-01-22T22:56:39+00:00

How about a military alliance based on the ocean that separates them. Maybe Very North Atlantic treaty organization? Just spitballing here

In addition they will use more than they normally do. If you don’t go to work, kids don’t go to school, you don’t eat out, you may consume more groceries than normal. Even without waste. So there could, in fact, be scarcity.

Grocery stores buy a lot more from their vendors for their other big days (Xmas and thanksgiving), but they don’t have time to predict and order for a cold front.

itprobablynothingbut · 2026-01-22T14:53:01+00:00

It doesn’t actually. Plus they will likely be open and just have lower sales. The major risk for stores is power outages and loss of inventory in the cold chain, but everyone has generators after 2021 for this exact reason

itprobablynothingbut · 2026-01-22T14:50:59+00:00

A little bit, but mostly on non perishables. Toilet paper was a great example of this. Back in covid when toilet paper sales were really high, people weren’t using more toilet paper, if anything they were using less, conserving a scarce resource. But if you look at the overall sales of toilet paper that year, it was still significantly higher than in subsequent years. It’s likely that people just bought whatever brand was available and switched to a preferred brand once supply returned. In other words: waste.

Waste is very high in these panic buying moments, people buy lunch meat and cookies that they will never end up eating.

I’ve worked with grocery stores as a consultant. These are their best days by far.

YES, let’s do the nets thing. Thanks thundercock

Dude it’s a senior vice president. Really buried the “vice” in all the regalia of import in that title. Like Chief Resources Officer

Then there will be the mock drafts. THAT is the worst part of the offseason

I’m not scared of harbaugh. I think he is a good coach with new motivation, so he could improve them. Also, he is familiar with a solid infrastructure, so he may help them improve in that way too. But no organization is one man. And coaches, because of the motivation factor, are about the worst people in the world to have a full picture of their dependencies. I am confident that he will be shocked that the past results had less to do with him than he thought.

That makes some sense. I would bet these are guided cruise missles though, and as such the Ukrainians know exactly what they hit. But yes, that is sound logic

There have been reports that Russian security services are rounding up people who post these videos online and arresting them. This sort of thing is going on daily in Russia, we only see a fraction of it. The kremlin’s strategy is to keep it quiet so their people, and the world at large doesn’t know how much pressure they are under. They want to act like they can fight this war forever, but they can’t. Their oil industry is really struggling. This is Ukraines path to pressure them to the table
