I watched two of my neighbors across the street try to dig out their cars. One made modest progress, the other person moved snow around. As they strategized, the plow truck made an appearance and promptly piled the snow back by their cars. They quit their plans and left.

It's definitely boring. Jury is out on if Jira is useful - I can't say yet.

I do the same! Freeze the green chillies, curry leaves, and occasionally fresh coconut. I can't use them up in a week anyway.

If its an image from the book - it probably would not have the text processor lines under some words. It's believable though.

Their Bionic Eyes Are Now Obsolete and Unsupported These early adopters found out what happened when a cutting-edge marvel became an obsolete gadget... inside their bodies.

This article lives in my head rent free. I shudder to think how it will turn out with neuralink

'The Caesars Palace Coup: How a Billionaire Brawl Over the Famous Casino Exposed the Corruption of the Private Equity Industry'. I am not in finance, don't know much about private equity but this one was surprisingly good.

The music cuts off awkwardly before the end, but this is an incredible NYC Halloween costume compilation.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

I enjoyed "New Nakamia", not sure where it got that from.

This 345 Park situation is pretty scary. Hope everyone else in the building is ok. It’s a big property and I know a lot of people had to shelter in place while this was happening

Ruggable- especially if you have pets. They wash well and are easy to maintain. They have some Iris Apfel designs that are eye-catching.

Saw the same thing unfold with a much respected colleague. He was disproportionately mad about the whole thing and it did not make sense until I found out he was getting regular whatsapp updates.

Its misinformation proliferated through trusted networks. Eventually people stop questioning the info.

The Crafters of β€œAndor” - Anil Dash A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

Like so many folks, I really loved Andor. But what’s amazing and special is that a lot of the most gifted artists and creators behind the show have been incredibly open about their creative process behind their work on the series. Here’s a roundup of interviews with those geniuses:

Agree - I just had a slice of sour dough bread topped with cottage cheese, wild tomatoes, olive oil and pepper. Good enough for an evening meal.
