Congrats! I like your LED indicators around the glovebox - tied to activity or thermal hazard automatically?

I think I've only heard that question once in my life - I'll be extremely glad when it fully dies off as a vestigial bit of casual sexism.

Case in point for my new hire training:
"How many contact hours can be expected to be accrued from completion of Sac State OWP Wastewater Volumes 1 & 2.
Is this enough to take a WW3 in New Mexico after two years?"

I definitely have used LLMs as advanced aggregators in lieu of searching and tabulating. They certainly have some strengths.
That said, I also include the function to include all links so I can at least spot check if something appears fucky.

Absolutely gorgeous photos! If you don't mind, would you message me the breeder? We're looking for a Silken in 2027ish and would love a recommendation!

Las Vegas: A Ride on Elon's "Vegas Loop" Did Not Change My Mind — Human Transit

Man, reading about The Loop was a deep-dive I did not want to participate in. I'm certainly skeptical about its practicality and its ownership - but at least it's *something* and at least Vegas isn't being burdened with the majority of the cost.

Per the Scouts:
"Scouting is and has always been a nonpartisan organization.... focusing on our common goal of building future leaders grounded in integrity, responsibility, and community service."
Ah, there in lies the problem - incompatible goals with SecDef.

Depends on where people live. When I worked in the Central Valley, majority of my neighbors would commute 5 days a week to the Bay - 180 miles a day.
At my current workplace, about 1/3 come from Albuquerque (to Los Alamos) - 200mi per day.
38k mi/yr just to work.

One of my favorites - such incredible beauty and violence in a small package. We had impaled grasshoppers and lizards near my workplace and two very territorial Shrikes nearby. At least one finch met its fate as well (but not impaled).

They're such cute little jerks, but at least their schedules don't completely overlap with the Anna's. The last of our Rufous left northern NM early last month.
