Dude, that’s a more sophisticated version of my *college* admission essay.

If it worked well, it’d be magic. This is more like sleight of hand. Impressive that it works at all, but takes some doing.

I’ve got one. It’s…fine? The note taking on pdfs is pretty clunky as well. I do like it for pure note taking though. The handwriting recognition is pretty good. There’s a third party integration to Zotero, which takes a little work. The case with the integrated keyboard makes it heavy.

Grade inflation, it’s not just for college anymore.

Normally I think I’m pretty good at parsing these things out as a layperson, but this eluded me. Thank you, as ever, for the clear and cogent explanation.

As someone who subscribed to the Washington Post weekly print edition by mail in college in the early ‘00s, I can respect this.

We run a dual response model that pairs a MH clinician with a deputy who’s had additional training and volunteered to work on the crisis team. It’s gotten good results, downside is the team is only on 12 hours a day, but we can call out an on call clinician after hours.

Merits of this policy aside, the HRA Is a fascinating tool. We teach employees to think about it as solely as a post-retirement health insurance premium instrument and to invest that way. Perhaps because most law enforcement folks retire well before Medicare eligibility, mileage may vary elsewhere.

I’m not intrigued so much as concerned lol. Guess Adama was right to not allow networked computers on his ship!

Truly the saddest thing about Oregon’s entirely vote by mail system is that they don’t give us stickers.

I am 42 and made a joke to a junior colleague about the 2000 election (we work in politics, so I figured it’d resonate) and after getting a blank look, I realized he was 7 years old in 2000. I then turned to dust. 🫠

Sorry if it’s in the article (darn paywall) - but did you look at how some widespread protocols like ProQA, don’t allow for much, if any, local modification, while others, like APCO, give individual dispatch centers more flexibility in how they write questions? I think that’s a potential barrier.
