I love that some influencers who were marketing alkaline water would gush over how much they loved it with a wedge of lime or lemon squeezed into it.

Huh, I did it yesterday and I clicked the 'here' link in the email and it took me to a page that said I was now opted out. I didn't have to do anything additional.

They will first stop paying your sick days and depending on what job you are in they may allow some additional time before they eventually fire you. If you are in a lower paying jo…

For the three weeks I was there in March I bought a suica card at the airport and never had to think about fairs for subway or buses for the rest of the the trip. I also used it to…

I work for a large US Corp in the US. I close my laptop at 430-5 and don't open it again until the next day. I don't have work email on my phone. Most of my friends who work for co…

Apparently Southwest is one of the biggest offenders in the airline industry when it comes to not investing in their IT infrastructure. You can only get away with that sort of debt…

I also want to mention that I am in my 40s and had never climbed before I started about 5 months ago. I just signed up to take an intro to bouldering course at a local gym and went…

Very interesting. I was going to make the same suggestion. Specifically bouldering since I think it's generally easier for folks to plug into their daily routines with the prolifer…

Glyder 2. It was a magnificent mobile game that stopped working quite a few android versions ago. I keep meaning to dig up an old phone and sideload it.

The hospital I work for just outsourced the majority of IT to Accenture in what I am sure will become one of the worst mistakes they have ever made. The 10% if us they kept are now…

Same, I got a setup before I went out west this year and I can now camp off grid at places I couldn't the previous years. It's great.

Doubt it. The healthcare org I work for is still happy for all IT staff to be remote and the companies that have come headhunting me recently have all offered full remote. This is …

Truthfully, most roles advertised as data science in most corporations and Healthcare orgs are mostly just data wrangling for presentations or dashboard work. You have plenty of sk…

I worked for a company that did an SAP modernization project. The IBM consultants did a large part of converting all the custom ABAP stuff. The idea was to get back to as vanilla S…

yeah, it just allows you to receive email from people who don't know their email address. I have my full name @gmail and constantly get folks who send stuff to first.last@gmail

Yeah, my mom (grew up in the rural south US) has told me multiple times about how her mom would heat bricks fro the beds each evening. They were very poor and had no central heat s…

Also Midwest (Ohio) and I don't recall seeing a shortage on anything other than maybe during one of the first snows, which always happens because people are dumb.

Yeah the current spike is well over 100 more cases per day for my hospitals than either of the previous spikes. It's pretty nuts. That's a ton of additional inpatients.

Just looking at ICU doesn't tell the whole picture. Not all covid patients - confirmed or awaiting a test - are place in ICU. ICU beds are a fraction of the total. ICU and vent pat…

Most hospitals have been having back office folks re deploy to do the drudgery for months now. Lots of stuff like stocking rooms, bed setup etc. Ohio has now drafted national gaurd…

You are correct, in my hospital system beds haven't been an issue since the early days of covid. Staff is the big issue. We are consistently over 100% nurse utilization. Having an …

I just ran a 5k race on the 1st and I did 37:17 so that's my best in this phase of running (I previously ran somewhere in the 36's when I was younger)

early runs when I was doing c25k were like 45 minutes. My current runs are all 4 miles or more. Additionally there's usually 10 minutes of warmup/cooldown for each run. Also I'm ve…

Speaking specifically about android mobile I've found minimalist phone to be a really nice tool to cut down on jumping from app to app for hours. First, I just like the aesthetics …

Personally, I've started using Busuu and Duolingo more. When I get the urge to go to reddit I try to divert and go to one of those two apps and do a couple of sections. It doesn't …
