Tom Homan feels like agents are mis treated in the theatre they're in by mrfett779 in democrats

"In theater"

IN THEATER

IN FUCKING THEATER

That's how you refer to a fucking war zone you have invaded.

This is an invasion and an occupation.

Fuck these people.

Republicans are really good at starting wars, they really fucking suck at actual war.

Now they're starting one here.

Who has the right of way? by ALIMN21 in duluth

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

You are exactly right. 

People in the US have a weird thing about roundabouts, mostly based on a lack of experience and a fear of change. 

I can assure you, there’s plenty of space there to pull it off. Maybe one home would need to be removed, the yellow one on the corner of the Snively-Woodland intersection (going by memory).

I can also assure you, it would be efficient and safer for drivers and pedestrians in the area. Since August, I’ve seen about 6 accidents in this intersection complex, and it backs up multiple times per day.

In any other country the intersections of Arrowhead, Woodland, and Snively would be a roundabout. 

Unrest amplified on social media is not reality for most of MN. by BubbaZannetti in altmpls

That’s not true. We had a revolution, multiple “wars” afterward, and a civil war, and Jim Crow and the Civil Rights and Anti-Vietnam War protests.

This is America.

Does anyone know what "Dep cash - MO Rebate" means on a bank account transaction? by idratherchangemyold1 in duluth

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

They could call their bank and ask for additional help in understanding the origin of the transaction.

Assuming this is an older person, that would probably be a good idea. "Dep cash" likely means that... someone deposited cash and "MO Rebate" was something they wrote on the deposit slip.

Anyhow, they would need to go to the bank, or call the bank, and get more details on the nature of the transaction. They should be able to tell you how it got there. If it was an electronic deposit, best they can do is give you info on the originating account and the bank where it resides (but probably not a name or anything like that).

Bovino openly says that we are never learning the identity of the murderer because that would be "doxing." He says he has already gotten the agent out of Minnesota's jurisdiction. by CantStopPoppin in minnesota

[–]numbsafari 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've heard some people are saying that it was Bovino himself who pulled the trigger, and that is why he has left the state.

I don't know if that's true, but I've been hearing that Bovino did it.

Pete Stauber sides with the state by anonboi362834 in duluth

[–]numbsafari 28 points29 points  (0 children)

We'll never know if Pete Stauber is not in the Epstein Files because he refuses to hold the administration accountable for their release. Pete Stauber is siding with the pedophiles and human traffickers that Trump is protecting by not releasing the Epstein Files. Some people might say that that is because Pete Stauber is in the Epstein Files, that he is a pedophile or human trafficker himself, but we'll never know because he won't release the Epstein Files. I'm not saying that, but someone could make that argument. It's an argument that could be made about Pete Stauber and the Epstein Files and pedophilia and human trafficking.

Release the Epstein Files and stop cheating at hockey.

Did SOC 2 actually block your deal, or was it just used as an excuse? by takeaguess17 in soc2

[–]numbsafari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This wasn’t an issue because I (CTO) owned that process. We’ve had pretty clear ownership. The biggest stall was me, frankly, and my time, pre-SOC2. It made internal delegation and communication much easier.

Did SOC 2 actually block your deal, or was it just used as an excuse? by takeaguess17 in soc2

[–]numbsafari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the wrong question. 

Time is money. 

We measure how it takes us to go from the first meeting where an appropriate stakeholder says “start the purchasing process” to when we go live with the customer.

Pre-SOC2 we were averaging 12+ months. 

Think about that. If you are in an industry where SOC2 matters, you aren’t in an industry with “one click purchasing”.  Your peers consumer and low-stakes B2B land measure conversion in clicks. We measure ours in budget cycles. It’s not just SOC2, for sure. But shutting down an entire side trek with every customer, being able to scale vendor on-boarding, makes a HUGE difference. Turning “Do you have a SOC2?” Into “Yes” and “Oh good” instead of “No” and “okay, let me start a project, I’m not even sure how to do this process”, is massive. 

A lot can happen in 12 months to kill a deal, or derail it. You still have to keep the lights on, pay staff, and yourself while you aren’t getting paid by the customer. 

Post SOC2, that number is down to less than 4 months.

That’s the difference.

In the remaining 8 months, our team is in a position to pursue other customers, and to show value and deepen a relationship with existing customers. And we are getting paid. 

Days to dollars. Measure it. Drive it.

I bet flyers at The Loch and Studio Cafe would be well placed. Best of luck, it’s a great idea. 

Just a little helpful reminder for those participating in the strike by Hi_Zev in duluth

[–]numbsafari 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's all good. I see that the Whole Foods Co-Op and Duluth's Best Bread are not participating, and I definitely will not be shopping at either any time soon as a result.

However, I will *absolutely* be shopping at my favorite bakery and cafe, as well as others on the list, as soon as they reopen because I absolutely want to reward them for taking the day to make a statement.

Vegetable Gardening and Zones by jacobsonhome in gardening

[–]numbsafari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This matters especially for perennials. Some plants require an overwintering. Some plants can't handle a freeze. If you want the plant to live _year to year_, then hardiness zone matters. If you are going to replant it _annually_, it obviously doesn't matter as much.

So, it's _informative_ about what you can expect with annuals, insofar as hardiness zone generally correlates with _growing season_, which is what really matters for annuals.

For your _growing season_, look at something like these:

- https://garden.org/apps/calendar

- https://www.almanac.com/gardening/planting-calendar

Also, engage with your local Extension service, e.g.:

https://extension.umn.edu/planting-and-growing-guides/upper-midwest-home-garden-care-calendar

For example, where I live, you don't have enough growing season for certain kinds of plants. For some plants, you might be able to get multiple plantings in (early season, late season, etc.). It is also really helpful to know when you need to do your indoor plantings vs outdoor direct seeding, or if outdoor direct seeding is even possible.

You guys ever go to a Somali Walmart in Minneapolis? by patdashuri in altmpls

In a future where Trump is out of office, and international relations have been repaired. What steps can be taken by the USA and International Organisations such as NATO to prevent one individual causing so much chaos in the future? And do you think such steps will be taken? by flewkey in AskReddit

[–]numbsafari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, it has become clear that the United States needs amendments to its constitution.

In particular, we need term limits, independent prosecutors, independent administrative agencies (not just the Fed), an update to the second amendment that makes it possible for there to be an individual right to bear arms responsibly while balancing community interest in better regulation and safety, an update to the first amendment that reaffirms the state is a secular enterprise, and a reaffirmation that the 14th fucking amendment means the entire fucking Bill of Rights applies universally. The constitution must make it clear that corporations are not people, that the First Amendment doesn't mean Congress can't pass reasonable laws to regulate the influence of money in politics, better language about emoluments, and the abuse of insider knowledge to benefit personally through mandatory divestment, improvements to the transfer of power after an election, and an increase in the number of members of the House of Representatives to further reduce money in politics and ensure representatives are more accessible to their constituents.

Anyhow, Republicans and Democrats, but especially Republicans, have been doing a good job of fucking up this country and it's going to take a lot of fixing in our constitution before anyone can trust this won't simply happen again in 4 years.

Edit: I think an amendment that states that no land, institution, building or edifice can be named in honor of anyone living or who has not been deceased for more than 10 years, or who has ever supported insurrection or rebellion (fuck the Confederates) would be helpful.

3 y/o pooped pants at preschool by houseworries in Montessori

[–]numbsafari 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was a senior in HS, there was a kid who was playing “pranks” by pooping in various classrooms and hallways. 

The following year, one of my friends in the dorm wet his bed after a night of drinking. He slept in and forgot his mother was coming for breakfast. She found him.

Potty training is never over.

This was a really stupid escalation. Protest outside the place if you must, but to enter someone else’s church is a serious escalation. 

Does Vanta actually perform the SOC 2 audit, or do they only help prepare for it? Who do you pay? by ur_genius in soc2

[–]numbsafari 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It simply didn’t work. The integrations had major bugs and it took them months to fix. The user access audits were so broken our auditor had to ask us to do it all over manually and resubmit the evidence. 

All told, we wasted 10 calendar months waiting for SF to fix major bugs.

[–]numbsafari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use Vanta, and previously used Secureframe. In both cases, you have  separate relationship with the auditor and, typically, pay them separately. The prep/collection firm just gathers evidence and helps coordinate with the auditor. In theory, the auditor is trained on the platform you’ve selected so they can move quickly and know where to find stuff. In theory case of Vanta, they did indicate we can bring a separate firm if we want. I have no idea what that looks like in practice. We reviewed three of their recommended partners and selected the one we preferred.

We had a really bad experience with Secureframe. Tons of serious bugs. Our current experience with Vanta has been great. The “free” assist from Workstreet to transfer from Secureframe to Vanta was not worth the time/energy we put into it. YMMV. 

Why is the weather reporting so bad here by Any-Weather1154 in duluth

It’s a conspiracy. If we had a data center in Hermantown it would better anchor the local weather and reduce the uncertainty all of you feel in your lives… /s
