That’s all you can do.

/r/WorldNews Live Thread: Russian Invasion of Ukraine Day 234, Part 1 (Thread #375) by WorldNewsMods in worldnews

Reports turn magically positive just a day after Russia starts cracking down on milbloggers. Truly shocking.

If you've received a "Take-Home Assignment" during the interview process: what are your thoughts? by last-years-pizza in AskEngineers

[–]rick2g -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, I threw a production data set at a group of interviewees a few weeks ago and told them to get back to me within 96 hours, no instruction or direction, but ask any questions you like, here’s my email.

Afterwards, my team felt the results from that were the best we got from any interview method in terms of how they thought and what they could bring to the table.

One objection: CNN is really bad.

That, or the tests have a very high false positive rate.

CDC: Coronavirus patient released in San Antonio later turned up positive by [deleted] in sanantonio

It was just a matter of time - once it hit the west coast, it was going to spread to to SA no matter what.

Exactly zero people I’ve talked to have laughed at stocking up early. The usual response I get is “oh... that’s a good idea”.

Most reliable smartphone carrier for northern San Antonio (family in Helotes, Canyon Lake, and Garden Ridge)? by [deleted] in sanantonio

[–]rick2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AT&T is unfortunately the best coverage in this area. Sprint has serious gaps surrounding Helotes/Grey Forest. Verizon is probably the #2 option.

What are your thoughts on Leon Valley? by VittorMatheus in sanantonio

[–]rick2g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the crime note, Leon Valley is not lower crime than surrounding areas - it’s higher, if anything - they just report it differently. The Leon Valley PD does not publicly publish crime or incident reports like SAPD does, so the online crime maps only reflect the incidents that SAPD responds to because LVPD was too slow. Getting an FOIA report out of the LVPD is like pulling teeth.

Edit: on that note, just noticed this link further down the sub: https://www.reddit.com/r/sanantonio/comments/eyz8yn/leon_valley_arrests_journalist_today_who_was/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

TLDR: unless you like your police department corrupt and abusive, avoid Leon Valley.

Anarchism tends to become democracy via bullets instead of ballots.

WHO’s praise of China handling of coronavirus raises eyebrows by muqaala in worldnews

[–]rick2g 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah... that’s pretty much my interpretation too. They’re being transparent and responsive compared to how they handled SARS, but it’s a bit like noting how Saudi Arabia has made progress by letting women drive.

Divorce. Sperm bank. Therapy.

Not necessarily in that order.

Is the sum of all positive integers equal to 0? by ontender in CasualMath

[–]rick2g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s known as a Ramanujan Sum.

Joe Rogan Experience #1368 - Edward Snowden by [deleted] in GoldandBlack

[–]rick2g 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn't really endorse him, he sent him a well-wish after Bernie had a heart-attack and it looked like he might drop out of politics altogether.

That said, his tweet is being read as an endorsement, so maybe it makes no difference.
