@wheeler244 What about turning at Coles Corner and going through Plain as an alternate? Not a bad route to avoid Tumwater Canyon. The railroad moved out of there for a reason - in fact, why Leavenworth became a Bavarian-themed town to form an alternate economy.
Thankfully, many citizens on this platform do actual research into topics before tweeting. I nominate this man for appointment to the DOGE team to balance out the software bros under 24 doing all this "hard digging" into our govt. books. Journalists are better at this stuff.
This "large scale social deception" contract was:
* first awarded under Trump
* paid to Reuters' data division, not the newsroom
* for researching *defenses* against deception
* not revealed by "DOGE investigations"; was a public record, visible online for many years
@mb9k_com@elonmusk Actually, it is you BOT who is lying, or just did zero research on facts and just repeated what you heard. SHUT YOUR MOUTH if you can't make an effort to read beyond the fold.
@endlibtyranny@elonmusk Fake news. The spend was to defend against that thing, and it wasn't the news branch of the organization. Musk is trolling you. Thomson Reuters does many things, include supplying data to investment firms, background checks on individuals, you name it. Not paid for making news.
@Th3mous@elonmusk Do some homework. Thomson Reuters is a massive corporation that does a lot of things, not just news. Kind of like, I don't know, the Federal Government?

@elonmusk Says the guy whose Tesla fobs were easily hacked by side channel attacks demonstrated by SCIENTISTS. Are you a moron now? or just insane? I suspect the latter. Take your large head out of your ass and get some sleep. This was CYBERSECURITY DEFENSE spending against misinformation.
This is "literally" the definition of Large Scale Social Deception. The person put in charge of researching details of Fed govt. spending apparently did NO research on what these contracts or acronyms mean and is alerting the public on a massive scale. Read the Reuters statement.
Reuters was paid millions of dollars by the US government for “large scale social deception”.
That is literally what it says on the purchase order! They’re a total scam.
Just wow.
@YardenLaif@euruko Good talk! I looked for that JRuby feature request you said remained open. Is that a Gitlab ticket number? On their Github repo, the issue numbers are much lower. Example: https://t.co/Ime5aS14vz (p.s. Headius gave you a shoutout at RubyConf 2022)
@katheroony @Ian_SMC It's worth noting that the QWERTY keyboard was designed to intentionally slow down professional typists (or at least spread out the most popular keys) so they didn't jam the typewriters so much. Not the best layout for digital machines.
@katheroony Yes, ca. 1993, and I took pride in my accuracy. I now write computer code for a living (which means several languages and syntaxes) and I can exceed 100 wpm on a good day. My teacher was weird, though!
@excusezla@gmiller@RichardHanania Also worth noting that men are more action oriented and women are more relational and communication (talking) oriented. Surgery = quick action. Psychology = long talking.
@onedarwinian@JohnMHillier@SchislerCole Humans had almost zero power over the natural environment at that time, so even if he was, he wouldn't need to try & change people's minds about their actions. He would just hunt and make more humans.
@bratton279 @fenny_tweets @PaolaQP1231 Here's a fact. Data scientists & statisticians studying climate consider factors like frequency & intensity, so saying there have been 4 intense events in the last 120 years without comparing it to the near term frequency of events (say 4 in 30 years, or 4x) is a weak conclusion.
