not a huge fan of "yankee" for this reason, but am ok with "ヤンキー" because it's more inclusive
I don’t like being referred to as a Yankee but I’ve realized this is not at all because I’m Southern, but because I specifically resent being associated with traditional New England Protestant culture and its flavorless foods
All people from the U.S. are Yankees. I say this as a person born and raised in The South because pissing off That Specific Kind of Southerner is a moral good.

the only one i quibble on at all is the 100% remote bit, and that only because i personally happen to be on an end of the industries where occasional site visits are physically necessary.

Before anyone tries to negotiate with these criteria, you have to understand that many of my friends are job-hunting right now and I've been trying to help, but there's so much bullshit (AI especially) that it's nauseating.
I'm tempted to make a tech-related job board, with the following criteria:
- No AI
- No blockchain
- Every job must allow 100% remote as an option
- Compensation must be fully transparent
Unfortunately, I feel like it would, on most days, be empty. Too many tech companies are up to some bullshit.

currently thinking silversun pickups works because the drums are D&B style but everything else is hard indie rock and that's not a super common combination. but this lets the rhythm section sit forward in the mix for a really punchy feel

damn, the jamaican bobsled team is on fire this year, you gotta respect the drive
In case you missed it, Jamaica has won a gold medal in bobsled!
Shane Pitter and his 4-man team slid to gold in the second North American Cup race in Whistler in Pitter's 6th 4-man race as a pilot, beating out a pretty experienced field in the process.

the demand was for a senator who checks his messages and has office hours that are actually kept, and as far as i can tell our space senator has generally kept to this
I think people should realize here that Mark Kelly is a very savvy politician who doesn't really move from where his constituents are and is notoriously careful because he's a democrat from Arizona.
The fact that he's doing this isn't just presidential ambition, it means his voters want it.

from what i understand open access started to grow *because* closed access journals were doing this, as a protest of elsevier et. al. raising publishing costs for writers while simultaneously raising access costs for schools
apropos of this shit, one of my hobbyhorses - that i recognize i am in the minority on - is that open-access publishing is a fucking scourge on academic integrity. closed access journals used to make significant effort to determine "is this a quality paper", now anyone can print if they pay the fee
