- The tipping system in the US is broken. Patrons paying employees instead of the employers. Incentivization is good, but it should be inherent to the accountability of the position, like, you know, every other job on the planet.
- Idea: a restaurant that doesn’t allow tips.
- Decided to subscribe to Medium. I get about 5 articles in my digest that look interesting but I can’t read. Since this is something I do daily, and enjoy, I’m going to try the premium content. It’s $50/yr.
- USA Spain. Won 2-1. On to quarterfinal against France (which is basically the final).
- Over large numbers, only about 3% of corner kicks result in goals.
- A set piece is one that returns the ball to free play, like a corner or a free kick.
- Medium.
- In JS (just like python), you can access properties with dot notation (obj.prop) or bracket notation (obj[‘prop’]). The latter should be used when the property name might have invalid syntax (leading digit instead of letter, etc).
- Angular is a much larger framework that uses the regular dom and integrates components in. It has two way binding. React is a smaller library that uses a virtual dom. It only has one way binding.
- Read the top articles on misophonia. None helpful. They all explain and characterize the condition. None provide solutions, because there are none. You just have to cope. Exposure makes it worse. There’s no medication. You just have to avoid the triggers with earplugs, leaving the room, etc.
- Updated my search engines in google chrome (i, a, t, w, y).
- My “a” key is still a little bit sticky since I busted the retaining clips.
- Priapism: an erection that won’t go away.
- Idea: a machine learning app that follows all of your activity (google searches, songs listened to, words said, apps opened, etc) and allows you to observe various outputs (energy, happiness, stress, whatever), then performs analysis to map the inputs to outputs and suggest patterns.
- The flavor in root beer comes from sarsaparilla bark and sassafras bark.
- Made the rub for the chicken tomorrow. Used a TON of anchos and guajillos, and included the seed pods this time. I’m excited for some strong flavor. Also used more garlic and onion powder, since Allie is in Sweden for 2 weeks.
- Just like ancho is the name for the dried poblano, guajillo is the name for the dried mirasol.
- Matt Stonie has done challenges of 20,000cal in 1hr. Holyyyyyyy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOop2bLiSFw.
- Booked all my one-way hawaii flights. LAX-HNL-LIH-LAX. United, Hawaiian, and American. Basically had to reset passwords on all argghghhh. Total cost ~$550. Next step is getting a kauai hotel room with wes/jcriss, then I should be good on accommodations.
