Technology Gone Wild: Rise of the Machines

I took a Waymo when I was in Atlanta.

We did not end up in a loop but it was a pretty mind-blowing experience. Sort of felt like I was on an amusement ride.
Best advice I ever got on BuckeyePlanet was "ALWAYS use Chicago Private Car"

Now... I know what you're thinking.

Thread of What You've Eaten, Cooked and/or Drunk Lately

A quick, easy “food as fuel” lunch I’ve been doing fairly regularly is an omelette made from a cup (half a carton from Costco’s six pack) of egg whites plus one whole egg for color and flavor, a little melted cheddar or feta cheese, and sautéed broccoli and onion, sometimes with some cauliflower mixed in. I’ve got a nonstick pan that lets me do it without using any butter or oil, and tarragon from the garden, pepper, and a little salt makes it taste pretty good. Sometimes I add half an avocado. Here’s a shot:
I make a similar omelette of 2 eggs + egg whites from Costco several times a week. Sometimes with a baked potato, sometimes with buttered toast, sometimes all alone. Only meal I've had so far today, in fact.

I think maybe I’ll be nice when frustrated by an AI customer service bot in the future …

Michigan lands Charles Woodson Jr., son of program legend

Charles Woodson Jr. is following in the legendary footsteps of his father, committing to play at Michigan.

A four-star defensive back, Woodson heads to Ann Arbor, where his father, also Charles Woodson, won the 1997 Heisman Trophy.

Michigan extended an offer last summer to Woodson Jr., a 5-foot-11, 160-pound defensive back from Orlando, Florida.

Along with the Wolverines, he had offers from Florida State, Iowa State, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Syracuse and Texas A&M, among others.

Deciding When to Retire

I had planned on retiring at 64. That'd be 40 years at this company. That's a little over 14 years away. And if I do that, I'll have plenty to live to 100. And I doubt I'll live to 100.
For a long time, that was good enough. When was I planning to retire? "Not for a while" was a good enough answer for the time being.
But the more I get annoyed at the stupid I have to deal with, the more I think how great it'd be to retire. I started looking into it: can I retire sooner? 59? With what little I know of financial planning, I think I could. But then I remembered that we need to continue to support the kids until they're able to support themselves. And if all goes "normally", the second kid should be done with college by then, and hopefully on her own insurance and everything by then. So, that's my plan. A little over 9 years from now.
I probably need to give it about 5-7 years to really consider it. But that's a problem for future me.
I'm sure I'd get a part-time job for the first 5 years or so. 20-25 hours per week.

Absolutely 12 teams is a stretch.
James Madison??
Tulane?
Alabama?

I remember 2003. 3 teams ended with 1 loss. LSU, Oklahoma, and USC. "We need a 4-team playoff!!!" So... okay... who is team #4? *ichigan, Texas, Tennessee, Ohio State, Florida State, Miami - all ended with 2 losses. In a time when losing 1 game gives you a huge hill to climb to win a national championship, and these people wanted to give a 2-loss team a chance?

This drive to add more teams who someone thinks "deserves it" has diluted and will continue to dilute the national championship. But we can either fight the losing battle or watch it all happen.
Yeah, and the issue will be similar to CBB, the regular season becomes less important. And IMO this will make scheduling VERY interesting, because does Day choose to load up every year playing a big OOC, knowing that OSU could lose up to 3-4gms in a 24 team scenario and still make the playoff
