For the cheapest Hilton in driving distance, this Martinsburg Hilton Garden Inn is one of the nicest Hiltons I've been to. $80 bucks worth of points (20K)- Car dependent community tho.

AWS System Manager Parameter Store UI is the 1st UI so bad that it is faster to write a python script for every single operation, including 1-offs.

Driverless trucks work best on dedicated roads. They'd go faster if they had maybe two steel sticks to drive on. Better yet if these new trucks are a mile long of trailers.
Ok, society thinks giving up on rail was a mistake, but they don't want to say so.
HealthIQ gets good press for health/lifestyle based life insurance. John Hancock not so much. Really I don't see how this is much different from, say MetLife saying you need a medical before signing up. All insurance cos want to minimize cheating risks

why isn't there an @unsuckthegoddamncardependentmesswevemade account posting nonstop rage about how poorly a car dependent environment serve us? The better options (trains, trams, subways, bike companies) have faces available to hate. Who is the face of gridlock?

The president doesn't really understand the collusion with foreign powers crimes he's committed. He does understand the sex stuff. If I was him-yuck!-I'd make it a condition that any judge who'd judge me was a rapist. That they had the HS character witness list shows they knew it https://x.com/maddow/status/1042502231977865216

We can settle this quite simply. Kavanaugh and a police officer duel at 12 paces. If Kavanaugh is shot, he is "guilty" and marijuana will be planted in his home. This is the sort of conservative jurisprudence that conservatives love: cops shooting citizens, set ups, guns, pew pew https://x.com/ABC_Poker224/status/1041743769169813504

Bert & Earny are asexual. They are in good company- Heaven's Gate (the short lived cult) were asexual & Raëlians also keen on finding a way to reproduce asexually via clones.
So what I think Sesame Street is trying to say is B&E are Raëlians now. https://x.com/mistersql/status/1042231120161583104/photo/1

Thought about "Fear" book- There are many players who thought the president was an old difficult man who could be managed.
It reminds me of the scene in "Alien: Resurrection" where scientists attempt to use Skinnerian reward-punishment to train Xenomorphs. They all die.

Ah ha! I figured out why pylint's performance is so bad. There was too much code on the PYTHONPATH. You have to widdle it down to the minimum or it will lint everything.
So the vetting was something like this
Republicans: "Hypothetically, if you raped a woman, would you legally require it to be carried to term?"
#BrettKavanaugh :"Yes, and not hypothetically, if you know what I mean."
Republicans: "Gentlemen, we have a new Jefferson"
"When the White House sends its people, they're not sending their best.... They're bringing crime. Their rapists..."

"Kavanaugh denies making unwanted sexual advances as an adult." So he was juvenile delinquent or he got better at covering his tracks?

Without antibiotics, all surgeries are rolling dice with Death. Without antibiotics, I guesstimate it would show up in the life expectancy statistics immediately and in my life time (projected 82+ now) we'd see expectancies cut in half. https://x.com/mistersql/status/1041079188734787584
More "Fear": The administration wants more-or-less an embargo on Chinese products, but being amateurs now are fail to implement the president's preferences. BUT, if the administration wins, NO MORE ANTIBIOTICS. They're all made in China. We are so literally going to die.
Reading "Fear": The economy is doing okay because the administration is failing to do any executive orders. When the US pulls out of all the trade agreements, the Great Depression is going to look like a bull market in comparison to what will follow.
The iPhones do a variation on this already & people opt in to it. By putting the word "President" into it & what, making it triggered by *him*?!, what could have been a good FEMA thing is ruined.

I'm looking for the Anki/Duolingo/Clozemaster of adult arithmetic. The app store is FLOODED, like Category 6 hurricane, FLOODED with apps that are all single digit + & - apps. It is like the fart app for kids software, no effort.
