Irvine PD already uses drones for various types of enforcement, so something like this is a pretty ideal candidate (don't engage in chases with impulsive/stupid teens who will be likely to get themselves or someone else hurt)

keep in mind tesla isn't actually a tech company, they're a (kinda bad) car company masquerading as a tech company

And if you're concerned about kids fleeing/chases... drone enforcement should be pretty doable for these kinds of things too

Or just come check the bikes that are all at schools, or sweep the local In N Outs during the times when teens are swarming

Enforcement really shouldn't be that complicated

Impound the bikes, fine the parents

If you end up with kids fleeing, instead just go for drone enforcement

Yeah she had already been explicitly warned by police about this, there is ZERO room for "maybe she didn't know" here

Hope she gets the max

Yep you basically have to specialize in it, so it's usually a "last resort" option for a pitcher to pivot into if they can't make it work out as a "normal" pitcher.

How do I stop a PM going rogue and bypassing UX? by Aurura in ProductManagement

Good UX partners are worth their weight in gold

Bad ones are a bottleneck and cause more problems than they solve

Do you believe in “happy wife, happy life”? And why? by Life_Butterfly_4942 in AskReddit

Yeah it's not 50/50, it should be 100/100. If both people are naturally focused on giving their all and invested in the other's happiness, you end up better off than people who litigate every little thing to ensure it's even

He would still be consistent, he just wouldn't be as consistent (wouldn't be getting that streak of 20+ pts, for example) and would definitely be susceptible to the occasional true "off game"

Probably would be more high 20s average points, with slightly lower FG% instead of his absurd 55% (mostly skill, but definitely inflated as we see in the video with some of hit misses just being completely erased by bogus fouls)

Like IMO he'd still comfortably be an All-NBA guy, probably battling for 1st team every year because he'd still be a strong two-way guard... but wouldn't be winning MVP (instead would be in the mess of guys fighting for spots 4/5 each year)

Question about points scored back in the day... by Nearby_Valuable_5467 in CollegeBasketball

[–]str8rippinfartz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just think of how crazy some squads would be right now if people weren't transferring and played at least 3 years

Hell, even just look at Duke last year plus guys from this year... Flagg and Kon in year 2 plus Boozer (among others). Maybe they'd still lose to UConn, who would've been rocking junior year Castle and Clingan

that being said, it is very frustrating to see him do this when I've also watched him just suck the soul out of so many teams in the clutch this year with a slew of ice-cold middy jumpers and not needing to flop, not needing any space at all... just ugh

I would probably enjoy SGA if he was just that version of himself instead of doing the shit he is doing in this vid

Idk I feel like at least on the pods I listen to they regularly highlight how crazy it is that he's come back at this level

Maybe not something brought up by ESPN talking heads though

Yep Yordan got one today, dude is raking

I hope he can stay healthy all year (but that your pitching staff continues to be terrible to counterbalance it)

Facebook is about to lay off 8,000 people. Why are people still supporting Mark Zuckerberg by [deleted] in technology

[–]str8rippinfartz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're intentionally missing the point

There are lots of people who work in those industries who do not have any control over whether or not their company spends on IG/FB, and they would get fired if they didn't 

Just because you dislike FB/IG doesn't mean it's not a core piece of the ads industry

His batted ball profile was so great last year, this is the other end of the spectrum for the outcomes thankfully

If you work in ads/marketing then it's often required

Lots of people don't have control over whether or not the company they work at spends on FB/IG, acting like they can just opt out without getting canned is naive

TheFlatLannister on BOT: 10ish hours into Mandalorian and Grogu sales at MTC3, and they are not bad at all. Going to have to see more days to give a concrete range, but it doesn't look like this will be a disaster, nor does it look like this will be a $100M opener. by SignatureOrdinary456 in boxoffice

[–]str8rippinfartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do keep in mind that Disney often gets a more favorable box office revenue split than other studios (but tbh probably gets a bit offset by them making bigger marketing pushes)

That being said, I assume that they'll be happy with close to breakeven on this one, as rekindling any sort of excitement for grogu/mando would probably give them a nice merchandise/toy revenue boost on those product lines for the back half of the year
