To make the world a better place start by making yourself a better person. Powerful @prageru@DennisPrager video by @jordanbpeterson You can't do much about external conditions but you can do something about how you respond to them. https://t.co/YYm8Mxu09l
Must watch: AlphaGo, the mind-blowing documentary about the epic competition between Google's AI & the best Go player in the world. It brilliantly captures an inflection point in humanity--and the game of Go. Could be a Black Mirror episode, but it's real https://t.co/AMd0ugKl5h
@Metrolink I had the pleasure of trying to take the 305 this morning - you know, the one delayed by an hour and a half? I’m also on this train, trying to get home 14.5 hours after my day started, on a broken train. Needless to say, not a good day for Metrolink.
@Metrolink Then how about you give out some accurate estimates so we can plan!?! How does this go from a 15 - 30 minute delay to 75 minutes, and only provide update when the last estimate had expired? You’re messing with people’s livelihood here!!!
@Metrolink You guys are the best - just keep telling your customers “its only going to be another 15-30 minutes” over and over again so that we all sit here waiting instead of making other plans - thanks!!!
@Metrolink First it was 15-30 minutes - then 45-60 minutes. It’s now an hour late. I need to make other plans if this is delayed any longer - I have a meeting I can’t miss some of us rely on dependable transportation - this is horrible service.
@navy1944 Thank you for telling their story. To this day it’s one of my favorite books ever written. Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors got me hooked on WWII naval history and I thank you.
Via USS Johnston/Hoel Assn: "It is with great sadness that I must report that Gulbrand Paul Miranda, the last known survivor from USS Hoel DD-533, passed away yesterday at about 3:00 PM.... God Speed, old pal. You served with honor and distinction. You stand relieved." #laststand
@BrianKal@Delta Nope! Another update!! Mechanics have released the plane to fly. We might get out of here using the same plane and a bit earlier than 11:30.
