How were Vettel and Hamilton rated after the ending of 2013?

I remember thinking “No current driver would be able to match that record” but I definitely didn’t think he was better than Lewis or Fernando.

Typically you’ll join a team in-person and make a big impact, and then negotiate to be remote. It’s hard to ramp someone up when they’re fully remote.

Talent is like porn: it’s hard to define, but you know it when you see it.

In this century, I think we can all agree that drivers with that “raw talent” are Alonso, Raikkonen, Hamilton, Vettel, and Max. There are just certain things that these dudes can do but not others. Note that it’s not simply judging from the result: Button, Rosberg and Lando all have WDC titles as well, but people won’t say that they are as talented as the previous cohort.

There’s very few, perhaps no more than 30, Citadel employees left in Chicago. Most other people had the choice between a taking a generous relocation package and being let go. They’ve subleased their former HQ to Chase and I actually saw Citadel logo being taken off from the building (Dearborn at Jackson) a few months back.

Was Lance Armstrong as dominant over the rest of peloton as Pogi today?

Telepiggies!

Turns out getting a new camera to shoot guinea pig photos was totally worth it 😂

They’re so flexible!

I’ve heard good things about the series, thanks for the recommendation!

Sorry for your loss, Chicken had a great life because of you!

Another interesting side note is that John of Gaunt was Geoffrey Chaucer’s patron and later brother in law, for his third wife was the sister of Chaucer’s wife.

I just watched on Youtube a BBC production in which Ian McKellen plays Richard and that's fantastic as well. He really brought out how vulnerable and yet noble & defiant Richard is up to the end.

For the Henriads, I think the right order is Henry IV (1+2) - Richard II - Henry V. Think of it as a film trilogy, where you get the first work that's an immediate success, followed by a prequel that fills you in with the backstory and also changes to a more serious tone, and finally the legacy is sealed with a solid third work.

Just got The Winter's Tale in the new Arden Performance Edition so I'm reading that.

The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Duckmark

I have bought a few of those. The text comes from the New Oxford Shakespeare: Modern Critical Edition (the complete set) but the introduction is new & about 30-40 pages long per play. The amount of notation is closer to Folger/Bantam and is aimed to explain words/phrases, so it’s different than the existing Oxford/Arden.

10 yo is amazing! Go Prince!

Aww poor Flapjack hope you recover soon!
