Whenever the Feds talk about storing health records or encryption keys, remember that the NSA can't even protect their best tools.

Great to see.

I've also been to this store a handful of times. Supremely geeky and fun stuff for super fans. Check it out.

Who North America (America's Doctor Who Store) stands in solidarity with the Stargate community as they protest the cancellation of their reboot. For years, Who North America carried Stargate products, including the Big Finish audios starring cast members like

@BaronDestructo If you take notes, don't share them. Please.

For the love of all that is holy/unholy, don't share them.

"Science fiction is an existential metaphor. It allows us to tell stories about the human condition. Isaac Asimov once said:

Individual science fiction stories may seem
as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and
philosophers of today, but the core of science-
fiction, its essence, has become crucial to our
salvation, if we are to be saved at all."

-- Anders quoting Asimov, Stargate SG-1, S10E06 "200"

This is Stargate. Only the original showrunners understand that this is what Stargate has always meant to us. They need time to hand the baton off to the new generation of writers and up-and-coming showrunners to continue the Stargate legacy.

Hiring someone who has no idea what Stargate is will only manage to add it to the growing banality of "science fiction" television that is being produced. We simply have no desire to watch something dumbed down. We are an intelligent audience that understands nuance and we deserve something that treats us as such.

You wouldn't write sequels to beloved books passed down throughout the generations without the original author involved in mentoring the next generation to continue the legacy. Anything else is fan fiction.

This take is spot on

I love listening to "entrepreneurship" professors who have never done it.. they've just interviewed successful ones.

Cool to have access*but* that's survivorship bias and many things you have to do, get some bruises, or be in the thick of to really understand

One of the good ego checks in startups is working with truly excellent people with valuable specializations.. and then you realize that they inherently look at situations differently so they're starting with a fundamentally different understanding of constraints and resources available

But yes, if professors haven't done/worked closely with the thing you need, be skeptical of their students

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

@jawwwn_ @60Minutes There is obviously no “degree” you can get from a university that actually teaches you how to make an orbital rocket, as none of the professors know how to do it!

@philthatremains A few nights ago, you guys talked about the new world screwworm

@politicalmath was writing about this one last year. In short, it was eradicated in the US. In '22, it migrated northward out of Central/South America:

@CElder556 "It’s literally your job to make sure national monuments are kept in working order."

A thoughtful person might ask: Why wasn't it it working order? Who wasn't doing their job?

@Fuentes226 @boo_ratley @girdley All right on the page. Click through to talk to my realtor

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@JiltedValkyrie @BaronDestructo When that scene came up, one of my kids just had this set, determined look on his face

I asked if he was okay, he reminded me "we help our friends"

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@boo_ratley @girdley Tell your friends!

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@golfdiscer @girdley No, that's the estimate without counting homestead exemption, etc. Iirc, it was ~$4800 for '24

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@SandyS1 Supposedly it was delivered an hour ago

But they recently "delivered" something and nothing was there. Even checked with neighbors and nothing.

It was a rule book for a small print board game - not even the game itself - so not useful to anyone else

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

USPS, Monday: Your package is in your town
Me: Woohoo
USPS, Tues: (crickets)
Me: ..?
USPS, Wed am: It will be delivered by 9pm tonight
Me: Ok
USPS, Wed pm: Your package is 30 miles away
Me: What?

What will Thursday bring? Probably not the package..

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@SandyS1 Haha, it's "out for delivery now"

But a couple years back, I had a package sit in Houston for 2+ weeks and I finally called them to ask if I could come get it. They said they don't allow that

Me: Well, you don't deliver and you don't allow pick, how will I get it?

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@realDeepWinter @BaronDestructo I loved when they poked fun at themselves and winked at the audience like this

Even when they had to do unpleasant things, they knew the audience was critical and respected that

@jondelarroz @SirBylHolte Colin Cunningham called almost a year and a half ago:

@TRHLofficial No, I'm sorry. This is Apollo though he's a good dog and watches out for kittens. He seems to understand they're helpless and need protection/direction

https://t.co/AB26iDr1tS

[Danger Casey @CaseySoftware]

@BrowningMachine Great pick. He's going to be a big boy.

We have a half German Shepherd and he's pushing 60lbs. He is thoroughly devoted to my kids and gets between them and strangers or danger without hesitation.
