Tacoma has gotten much much nicer over the past 20ish years and the aroma jokes are mostly vestigial at this point. My best friend moved down there a few years ago (a family member sold them their house under-market and…
Also not accurate. I have a 2 year old in daycare in Seattle and the ratio is 8:1. I believe it’s 6:1 or maybe 4:1 for infants. I’ve never heard of 2:1 that would be absurd
An interesting precedent for sure but it’s worth noting that a company tried and failed to use this precedent to argue that spam filtering is a violation of the first amendment
This is absolutely not true in my experience (MLB, NFL, NBA). It’s very very common for one person to buy tickets for their whole party (this is how you make sure you’re sitting together) and there’s no part of the…
It’s true that all money is made up, but not in the same sense OP means. Like I could give you 20 dollars and it’s made up in a sense, it’s just a piece of paper, but also you can go to the store and buy things with it.…
I agree with a lot of your top 5 so I’ll try to continue 5: I enjoyed sections of this book but as a whole I didn’t like it 4: had some cool ideas and there were moments when I got excited but the execution wasn’t…
When I started at Facebook one of things everyone did during orientation was to put up a diff changing the default text of the search bar at the top of the homepage. This was a good way to familiarize people with the…
Ok but you’re gonna have a hard time convincing me that (morally) HBO should have been able to make game of thrones without cutting a check to the guy who created it
This doesn’t seem that wild to me. Zoom already prompts me to unmute my microphone when I cough.
I “read” cars and trucks and things that go for my 2 year old every night. He recently found out that goldbug is on every page and now he won’t let me turn the page until we find him. It’s genuinely a lovely book. We…

There are many people who don’t get asked about their regrets when they’re older. And there are many people living lives of quiet desperation.
Etymologists use it a lot. I went down an etymology rabbit hole a while back looking for the origin of a phrase and google books was immensely helpful
I think patio11’s blog is exactly what you’re looking for. Probably scroll back to the earlier posts to find more fundamental stuff like what you’re asking: https://www.bitsaboutmoney.com/archive/
Is he a Russian puppet or isn’t he? If he can’t speak on ukraine for fear of being killed by Putin then everything he says should be viewed through that same lens
First off yes I (and I think 99% of people) would be totally fine with your closing hypothetical. Why would I care about CNN’s ad revenue? Never even enters my mind. But more fundamentally your frame totally omits brand…
I happen to be on vacation with a former crowdstrike employee right now, they said none of their old coworker/friends are saying anything. I’m guessing internal comms went out to lock everything down
This is just generic speculation
Judges don’t run campaign ads
The same thing happened to another one of Paul’s wacky passion projects, the Cinerama theater. That ended up being taken over by the Seattle Film Festival after being shut down for a few years. My impression is that…

These are all great, another good one is “This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t”…
