Thank you! I was actually hoping the original article would get into the Shakedown "economy" that surrounds Phish and other jam bands. Not just the nitrous part, but people selling grilled cheeses, burritos, single cans of Heady Topper and unlicensed merch. Like what kind of numbers they actually do, how do they secure their spot, how do they deal with competition, are they hopping on other bands' tours, how many are Phans vs just there to make a buck, what does their typical non-tour life look like etc
I would definitely fact check search results as much as AI, especially the info snippets that appear at the top of Google's SERPs.
For example, until a few months the results for "pork cooked temperature" and "chicken cooked temperature" were returning incorrect values, boldly declaring too low of a temperature right at the top of the page (I know these numbers can vary based on how long the meat is at a certain temperature, but I verified Google was parsing the info incorrectly from the page it was referencing, pulling the temperature for the wrong kinds of meat). This was potentially dangerous incorrect info IMO
Why not just let me pay more for a seamless experience where I can share X number of profiles outside my household? Instead, next time I'm at my parents I have to spend time setting up all their devices again?
This is a really great idea! Is there any reason this is "for hackers" and "like code"? I'm waiting to get in off the waitlist so I haven't seen the actual UI, but is it easy enough for non-technical users to get in and set up their portfolio?
Yes! This was my first thought. Tell me a little about each fund. Even if you have some familiarity with every company in the portfolio, it might not not be immediately obvious why they are being grouped together.
If they are picking NYC, I see why Long Island City makes sense with proximity to Manhattan (and maybe Cornell on Roosevelt Island) plus its explosive growth, but still so much unused space.
I have to say I haven't heard from one person in Astoria or Long Island City (where I live and work, respectively) that's excited about this. And there has been a lot of buzz about it over the past couple weeks. The strain on the transit system and increasing rents that are already skyrocketing is definitely freaking out a lot of people.
Maybe it's a little selfish of me, but I'm pretty terrified of what it will do to our office's rent in particular...even though it's been expanding rapidly and getting more expensive, Long Island city has been a great place for cheapish space in old industrial buildings for new/small businesses. I figure we and a lot of the surrounding small businesses will be pushed out at the ends of our leases.
I am very curious to know where in Long Island City they are targeting. There are so many big industrial lots that they could build on or new construction that they could move into. I had heard they were looking at one of the Plaxall-owned buildings, but can't remember the source.
Great! I am getting lots of beautiful scenery. An up vote/down vote or ratings system would be great, and then you could start compiling a list of the most beautiful (or interesting) views.
This question, in fact seems, to have been flagged as getting posted on Reddit (or maybe getting significant traffic from them?). I'm seeing this above the answers:
"Welcome, Redditors! We're looking for answers that provide serious, practical solutions to the problem stated. If you'd prefer to post a joke or launch a tangential discussion, please do so on the corresponding Reddit thread."
Thank you for posting this. My aunt bought a variation of this game for me (under the name "King's Table") when I was about 10 and it was one of my favorites. One summer when a few of my friends and me spent the summer at our college campus, we had a tradition of playing this game over breakfast. I haven't played in many years, but I highly recommend trying it out if you have the chance. Though I am not very well versed in old/ancient board games, but I found this one somewhat unique since you needed a different way of thinking depending on which side you were playing as.
if you read more of the OP's blog posts, he continually points to "Think Different" as a notable exception in Apple's history of avoiding brandism in its advertising during the Jobs era
>First, the decline in sales in the sugary soft drink industry is only remotely connected to their social media advertising. It is a widely reported phenomena that is usually attributed to a more health-conscious society and a widening array of beverage choices.
Pepsi is falling way faster than the other major players though. Last year, Dr Pepper was down 0.5% , Coke down 1%, Pepsi down 2.5%. Pepsi's share fell 0.4. This has been the (general) trend ever since they started pulling dollars from TV and began spending big on viral marketing, social media, giveaways and rebranding in 2008
How much outrage is there over The Playbook app, which lets men share and rate pictures of their "romantic encounters"? Seemingly less than there is over LuLu, unless I missed it.
I could be missing something, but it looks like you are using the default settings. Have you tried tweaking it all? Specifically setting apc.stat=0, which will stop it from checking the mtime. You'll need to clear the cache with apc_clear_cache() when you make code changes though. You may also want to look at apc.php to check for fragmentation and adjust apc.shm_size if necessary
