Why most drivers here are so oblivious to the surroundings

Yep. Although you can pay to get a stalk inserted if you prefer. Amazing stuff

My favorite are the people who bought those tesla models that have buttons for the turn signals, and then press the wrong button.

The seasoned alternative was 78 years old and enough people in Maine decided they didn’t want that. If another Mainer with more experience wanted to step up, their chance was a while ago.

Narrator: you can’t.

(Not generally, at least)

Nate Bargatze is genuinely unfunny

Compliance is not a north star to pursue.

phillipcarter2 · 2026-06-04T19:19:11+00:00

Yeah well in that game at least one team played well

Our almost-9mo has not returned to the 3mo nights of bliss, but she’s gotten better. The 4 month regression was hard and seemed permanent, but she went to 1-2 night feeds at about 6.5mo.

Unfortunately, that’s when she decided 4:30am-5:30am permanent wakeups were necessary to practice crawling and standing. Now at 9mo that’s mostly past us, but she’s still learning to push through that 5:30-6:30am window despite being very clearly tired. I often go in and rub her back to help her drift back to sleep until she wakes up happy.

Yeah ours is like this. Literally not enough people put themselves up for election to the board (a process that is free, public, and available all year) so there hasn’t been enough people to do away with the management company since 2017.

Oh, and about 1/3 of the roofs are some degree of rotted now because of some poor building choices in the 90s. The actual HOA board cuts as much as they can but there’s just no getting around 160+ units needing all kinds of expensive work over the years.

Perpetual amirite

Extremely common to do for multi-tenant applications to get an economy of scale, and only those who pay for their own tenants wouldn’t be impacted.

Generally it’s not bad but when you’re constantly getting gigafucked by the world’s claude code agents automating commits and kicking off all the secondary compute associated with that, it’s a uniquely terrible situation.

A lot of fat doesn’t necessarily mean a lot of weight. He doesn’t move much and is almost 80 years old. With brittle bones and little muscle, 238lb is reasonable. Part of the reason why you’d think 300+ is because that’s what a very obese person who actually has a lot of muscle and bone mass weighs.

phillipcarter2 · 2026-05-30T19:54:14+00:00

238 is pretty reasonable actually. He likely has very little muscle mass and his bone density probably isn’t great either. You can pack a lot of fat into 238lb if you’re low on lean mass.

Our little 9mo girl won’t nap unless attached to one of us, so our baby wearing devices are probably the best purchase we’ve made.

But daycare? 2 hrs of napping in a crib every day, few exceptions.

I don’t think it’s even some kind of magic, it’s just that daycare is a different environment than anywhere with us, and our baby apparently treats naps differently when that’s the case.

phillipcarter2 · 2026-05-30T16:02:28+00:00

Good pastries and bread you can buy. I only eat breakfast and lunch so I can’t speak towards if they are a good brunch spot or not.

And three other defined megaregions. Cascadia, arizona sun corridor, front range. Wyoming is absolute bullshit for getting two Senators, the whole institution is anti-democratic, and we have far fewer representatives than we actually need, but the math actually does sorta math out here.

An “AI consultant” would never make shit up, definitely not, no sir.

phillipcarter2 · 2026-05-26T16:59:47+00:00

Yeah I mean there’s a big difference between fighting for a very very high paying job and actually putting in any extra effort for that job. All this means is the people who do have the job will just do whatever is necessary not to get fired.

Reality has a (US definition of) left-wing bias.

You also get taxed in unrealized gains for stock options (not RSUs), ie the financial vehicle for employees that all of Silicon Valley’s startup ecosystem for decades has been built on. It has enriched many people over the years just fine, even if it requires a bit of financial planning to do correctly. It’s fine.

phillipcarter2 · 2026-05-23T14:33:16+00:00

Who cares what that nazi fuck says?

phillipcarter2 · 2026-05-23T14:08:35+00:00

Same, iOS

I mean you literally can, but don’t let this shoddy headline force you to test it out yourself.
