Maybe we should have a competition then? Like an annual Gayman competition where gayletes can compete in various gay events, with a winner eventually crowned.

But we know the tallest person in the world and possibly the tallest person in history. I’m sure if we can calculate a gayness metric we can also find these values, at the very least once our metric is define.

And how long will that advantage last? China has been investing a lot into indigenous chip development. And you know they’re more than willing to bribe or steal to speed up that process. In 5-10 years the cost of invasion might not be so steep.

The problem is what can Taiwan do if China just decides to burn it all to the ground? The entire island is within missile and bombing range. The effectiveness of anti air defenses are known from the existing conflicts. They can stockpile enough ordnance to overwhelm whatever defenses are in place. Overall it’s just a very scary situation.

My partner totally asks me questions she hears from TikTok trends. Man vs bear, etc.

There’s so many coin operated machines in Asia this feeling should totally still exist.

Do you consider mid level one promotion or two promotions from entry? I was thinking two promotions above entry since the first promotion is mandatory.

Mid-level in SF is like $200k for a startup and twice that for big tech.

Apparently even fewer regularly alternate between formats.

Diamond doesn’t have the best absorption spectrum compared to high quality optical glass. You’d end up losing more light.

According to Wikipedia she’s the oldest afloat but the Kommuna is the oldest in active service. Seems like semantics but I guess the Kommuna was actually being used as compared to being a museum ship.

The Baltimore bridge collapse could’ve been prevented if there had been a tug helping maneuver the ship after it had lost power. There’s probably a higher demand for them now and having an electric option should be good.
