    Healthcare and education don’t scale as well as manufacturing so it would be natural for them to grow in employment relative to the other sectors. (See Baumol’s cost disease)

    You know, you would think the schools would invite parents to attend a class or two or give a special meeting showing parents the materials and the topics that they are discussing. You would think they would be proud of their curriculum and want to share it….

    We do the same (kinda)... we make pulled chicken in the InstaPot. Add a bunch of salsa, chicken breasts, then after a few hours, mix (shred) it with an electronic mixer (normally used when baking). Keeps things easy...

    The data only includes 200 cities in the US. I'd like to see a broader list.

    That's Omicron news. If that turns out to be a Nothingburger, back up it goes.

    I listened to an hour or so of oral arguments and was surprised he asked a question.

    From what I’ve read that’s becoming more common.

    Interesting. The runoff control, if it is cisterned, could allow for better moisture control and more efficient water usage.

    You can do the same thing on a smaller scale with raised beds and PVC hoops over the beds.

    Regarding #1, according to Brand's biography of Jackson (I think it was there, maybe it was Remeni's book) word had gotten to Jackson that the treaty was signed, but, since he hadn't received an official notification from Washington, as far as he was concerned, the war had not ceased.

    @jolly I'm entirely unfamiliar with this platform. What do you find interesting about this, or the stock?

    Rumble is the home of the YouTube-banned.

    Pretty much. Folks like Bongino upload to Rumble.

    Right now, it looks like YouTube may possibly have a competitor if they raise enough in the IPO...
