To me the theater is now a place for collective enjoyment. The home viewing experience is good enough if I want to watch something in silence, not that I have even a modest set up. The theater is now about having that energy and cheering because it’s all that’s really left.

Fixing late season games is going to require more than playoff seeding to change. You need a way to discourage tanking by teams that know they are on the outside.

It may also just be a fluke that entire divisions were just garbage.

The crowd and reactions are one of the biggest parts of the theater experience that’s actually positive.

It’s a common fallacy to believe people that are doctors (or have a PhD) are really smart. They know one specific thing really well, anything outside of that one thing they are as smart as any random person.

Specifically for medical, there’s a few other reasons. Medical software is often garbage, a doctor’s day to day experience with computers is not great. This doesn’t make doctors want to learn more about computers. Doctors get trained by older doctors, so it’s going to take longer for those that aren’t hostile to computers to get into teaching and how to use computers in a beneficial way. This is just barely starting to happen, I doubt many teaching staffs are completely pro computer, but at least some are.

5 seasons would be tough to fill, good thing they didn’t do that.

I agree nachos are generally awful. I still enjoy eating them 1-2 times a year though.

Most professors don’t have the time or desire to actually make a good test so the curve is a way to compensate for the poor test. There is more pressure in the current day to also pass more than may deserve it as well.

Moving touchbacks a whole 5 yards seems inconsequential to me. If they wanted more returns they should make touchbacks at the 50.

It probably will. Given the modest spec bump and the high even for Nintendo hostility to switch emulation, it’s probably trivial to support switch 2 as well.

It depends on the volume you need. A food processor can shred an 8 ounce block in a few seconds. You will spend a bit more time cleaning, but it can save a lot of prep time if you need multiple blocks or lots of vegetables. I used one a lot more when I was meal prepping multiple dishes.

Schooling definitely has many problems. There’s a lot of competing interests and partially serving all of them is failing spectacularly.

The quality doesn’t go down l, but it doesn’t go up either.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this amounts to the league not punishing players who miss preseason activities to participate.

It does get rid of the ridiculous chain gang running onto the field to measure something well within the margin of error of the tool.

Throwing money at public education doesn’t fix it. Some of the worst schools get well above average funding. There are of course outliers on both sides, but in the average case the US spends more for less in pretty much everything, spending even more isn’t going to fix it.

It’s been successfully demonized by teachers unions over the years. While there are limitations, with the medium, it’s far from useless. It can’t fully assess mastery of a subject, but it can determine basic and applied understanding of one. It’s a very simple step to expand from student competency to teacher competency.

The public domain allows free use of anything in it. It allows people to innovate and expand upon established knowledge without having to pay tribute to original creators or their estates.

Intellectual property was created as a compromise to get people to be more open with their works. It allowed artists and writers to create things without risking their creations copied and losing their livelihood. Similarly inventors were also encouraged to publish how they invented because it granted them a period of exclusive access to controlling that method. In the long term the public benefits by getting access to everything.

Is she getting worse or are more people aware she’s always been bad?

All companies are tech companies, those that aren’t will be replaced by those that are. It’s been a common theme for a decade. I don’t really care that some venture capitalists lost their easy button to decide where to throw money for massive returns. Investing is supposed to require diligence.

It’s my second store, but it’s still a distant second to steam.
