lol at liberate New Yorkers? This has been a godsend as a car owning New Yorker who takes public transit 10+ times a week as well. Less traffic and all the externalities associated.


“CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED.” Trump wrote, adding, “LONG LIVE THE KING!”*

Sorry, I guess I crossed the streams with all of the nonsense from the White House. Saved, not liberated.

I think this is just an issue of text not conveying intent. If you wrapped the word in quotes - "liberated" - people wouldn't be as confused. There wasn't a great indication that wasn't your perspective.


What are you talking about? The admins current net approval rating is -6.9% https://www.natesilver.net/p/trump-approval-ratings-nate-sil... Biden was at a +5% net rating at this point in his term


> -6.9%

Still extremely high by global standards considering everything.

e.g. Hollande in France was at less than -80% not that many years ago.


Approval ratings are just measures of partisanship. Ideally it drops to zero. The fact that it was nearly 40% for a leader experiencing dementia-like symptoms confirmed this with political theoreticians.


Biden had a team around him to work with, plus the general separation of responsibilities of independent agencies. So nominal "Biden" was doing just fine regardless of the one man. This time we're getting the full dementia experience from a manic mad king who has already driven away anyone that might tell him no.


So these polls are about the idea of Biden and not the person? That also supports the idea that polls don’t matter.


Yes, polls are obviously about the administration's actions. And people's opinions of administrations are obviously important - even more so with politicians' tendency to promise everything while campaigning, then focus on different things when actually in office. And this effect is even more pronounced with Trump's signature blend of contradictory word salad and shameless direct lying.


So it doesn’t matter if Trump lies then? because the idea of Trump is to lower taxes, protect rural jobs via manufacturing tariffs, prevent millions from cutting in line?


I'm not interested in another Gish gallop. I recall a previous exchange with you which you just dropped once I started digging into the superficial talking points.


Team Shark Brand here. It's sweeter and spicier, though I do wish it came in a bottle smaller than 750ml...


More RAM and USB-C and will 100% purchase


For me it would be a higher res screen, I'm find anything less than 1920x1080 at 10.1" jarring because of my astigmatism it gives me headaches.


I've always wondered if some hedge fund uses senator's transactions as input in their model


The filters are more efficient in space and query time at the cost of being immutable after being constructed. There is no Add() operation as there is with the others.


Multipass was the only way I could get a local k8s install that didn't shred my laptop. Albeit I/O perf was bad, but would build containers on the host and put them in a spot containerd could pick them up in the VM. Worked pretty well, but a bit hairy to set up.


I thought just a glance towards France was enough for the ol' British Bulldog


A negroni is equal parts Campari, Vermouth and Gin. Varying the brand of Vermouth or Gin has the biggest impact. Subbing out Campari makes it another cocktail. Should be swapped out for another Amaro (Herbally Bitter Liquer) such as Cynar, Gran Clasico or Brut Americano (never Aperol, too sweet). I'm partial to using Cynar (pronounced chee-nahr) which I've heard be called a Sin-Cyn (sin-chin).

You can also try swapping the gin for whiskey to make a boulvadier and see if that more to your liking as well.


I've had mixed success subbing Montenegro Amaro or Fernet for Campari.

Very different flavors, though, and the type of "aromatized wine" (aka vermouth) will have an impact.


These are all truths to heed. I can also recommend the book Cocktail Codex[1] for anyone interested in learning more about making cocktails, it's a very interesting take on the subject.
