Reupping this story from a year ago.

Your airplane seats still have USB-A plugs and will for years. If you own the “old” Mac keyboard or AirPods Max you’re stuck with Lightning unless you want to spend hundreds of dollars again, just for a common port. And then the amperage/wattage confusion.

Project management is not the same as strategic leadership. Confusing the two is proving to be very costly.

“I make research that electrifies them,
“You want research that pacifies them.”
- J dot @ the LXI Super Bowl Halftime Show
Is it passive aggressive if the next time I talk about my research, I preempt the rude “how are you valid” by saying “in case you’re waiting for question time to ask how I’m valid, I brought some pacifiers for the giant babies in the room” and like, actually have a bag of pacifiers?

För att se om ”dom” kan ersättas av
”de” eller ”dem”
tänk på om det skulle vara ”vi” eller ”oss”

Ex. ”Vi köper blommor till oss”
blir ”de köper blommor till dem”,
för du skulle inte säga
”Oss köper blommor till vi”
Ok folks: what is your favorite fact that you share with people (maybe a bit too) eagerly?
