Lane assist is an absolute menace. It gets turned off in any rental I get in.

The colors are muddy.

I posted this link months ago and it never found traction. It's unpleasant to hear, but that boomer advice is how small business actually hires.

Big corporate uses AI tools and job boards. Small business want to look you in the eye and decide if they want to hang with you for 40 hours of every week of their lives.

I know several people who did that - trucks, boats, campers were all worth more used during COVID than they were worth new just a year or two before. You may recall there was a massive chip shortage during COVID and new vehicle production was greatly impacted.

Again I could be wrong but I thought that the WD stood for water dispersant which was the original application ( and still very good for that). The all purpose lubricant is not actually a great use for it. Spray silicone like Jig-a-loo is much better.

I thought that WD-40 was a purposeful development process. It was the 40th formulation that made it to market.

It's interesting to me, I learned an oral history in grad school that's somewhat different from the wiki record. This isn't the first time that it's happened and it's a lesson that history goes to the documentation.

I was told that it's development was tied to looking for suture alternatives and it was abandoned due to inflammation and rough edges on application.

The lesson, for me, is to be cautious about relying on single sources. I am enough of an expert in my areas (and this is not one of them) to be pretty suspicious of Wikipedia.

That's why the cyanoacrylates were developed - for surgical closure. Everything else is an afterthought.

Did...did Texas do something right? 🔥🥶🔥

The biggest secret is that there is a secret to begin with. In a lot of environments they work very hard to keep you from knowing who's doing something important and who is doing routine work. It's interesting to me that her agency allows someone to admit they are working on a secret project. I've never been in that world but I have been adjacent to it.

That's interesting. Most people in that world have boring cover jobs. They don't say "it's highly classified" because that's part of the secret - the who and where for a project.

I routinely tell people to get fucked but didn't make the list. They must have more stringent criteria than just being rude.
