I’ve been a fan of Scott Sumner for over a decade, but I think his first commenter (whom he complements) nails the changes in art better than he does.

A man sees what he wants to see and disregards the rest..

I feel like selfishness is a common shorthand Catholics like to use when expressing their dislike for how other people live their lives.

TBH, I don't care whether it's selfish or not, I just find it hilarious coming from somebody who's sworn to celibacy because of his day-job.

You only got partial points here, bro! His namesake! Francis of Assisi! Guess what he's known for?

I just found a Lear 45 Airplane Flight Manual (instruction book), the accident plane was a Lear 35, but I assume it was similar.

Here is the whole AFM https://hangar45.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/learjet-45-afm.pdf

Here is the page that answers your question, as the bank angle goes up, the stall speed goes up, follow the dotted line:


I might have mentioned before that I (used to) spend a lot of time reading Airplane Flight Manuals, sometimes known as Pilots Operating Handbook (POH). I used 85 different POHs building one of my Apps. I like reading these things

Here is what Stall Speed definition looks like in a Cessna 182T, 4-seat single prop plane that I used to fly.

Expressed by numbers in a table. A different format than the graph format used in the Lear above.


Perhaps...If you have any comorbidities at all, China does not count it as a COVID death?

@jolly said in Alex Berenson is an a-hole:

I like Tucker.

Most of the time, so do I. He's provocative, to say the least. I don't think he's descended into Beck territory, yet.

I don't accept everything he says as gospel. Or everything his guests say as gospel.

Yes, and that's one of my points. What his guests was clearly wrong, and, if he considers a journalist, he should have pushed back. And he didn't. He smiled and nodded, accepting Berenson's comments without question or criticism.

That should be his job.

But, it's not.

His job is to make money for Fox (which he's doing very well, I might add), so, there's that.

Tested positive again implies she has already tested positive some days before… According to CDC Guidance if she is 5 days since her initial onset of symptoms and is 24 hours symptom free then she is good to go…..

The real interesting thing about index funds is - if everyone were to just buy index funds, the buy/sell signals of individual trades dries up.

Does the market still work ok with only relatively few people actively trading equities.

So now Klaus knows who to call.

No

Did you know that Joe Pepitone was the first major league ballplayer to bring a hair dryer into the locker room?

He was in with the mob too.

He was the second string first baseman behind Moose Skowron. His mob friends told him that Skowron wouldn't play so good with cracks in his fingers. Pepitone had to beg them not to crack Skowron's fingers.

Instead of a kill switch, they should give cop cars the ability to fire a small EM pulse at a car to disable it.

And put everyone in it into a state of suspended animation.

Maybe the wrist bracelet Spider Man was using to teleport villains to a cell in the latest movie?

I voted for his dad in the last poll. I think that's why they cancelled it this year.

If they have Krystal Burgers near you try their new fries. I was shocked at how good they are.

Hold on to your seat, but I actually heard CBS news play a comment about how a partisan commission accomplishes little in real change.

If you see a liberal around, don't even think about saying boys are different from girls.

What the hell does he think this is, the arms industry?

@mik said in Bill Gates was literally losing sleep over Java:

In his defense software engineering did not exist in any significant form until long after he was established.

I'd argue that, from a modern SE perspective, Thompson and Ritchie did a far better job with Unix in the 1970s.

What Gates did right, and what Bell Labs et al underestimated: He made an operating system that worked on small, cheap computers (MS-DOS) and he had the right timing for graphical user interfaces (Windows 3/3.1). But the architecture of these operating systems has always been a big mess.

Good to know. We actually like the Kirkland (costco) marinara sauce but they were out last time so we picked up some Rao’s. Haven’t tried it yet but looking forward to it.
