Whether or not nap happens, maybe.

In regions where LinkedIn or its affiliates use member data to train generative AI models for content creation, you can choose to opt-out of having your personal data and content you create on LinkedIn used for training (including fine-tuning). To opt out, use the Data for Generative AI Improvement member setting. Opting out means that LinkedIn and its affiliates won’t use your personal data or content on LinkedIn to train models going forward, but does not affect training that has already taken place.

That he published after he was no longer serving as the Chairman of the Joint Chief's of Staff. The US military is known for being apolitical. This is him speaking out as former CJCS Mark Milley, and not CJCS GEN Milley.

From Wikipedia:

"Neckbeard" is a pejorative term and stereotype for an adult man or teenage boy who exhibits characteristics such as social awkwardness, underachievement, or pretentiousness.

And incels are described as:

An online community of young men who consider themselves unable to attract women sexually, typically associated with views that are hostile toward women and men who are sexually active.

Certainly not related communities but could conceivably overlap. Not surprising that a lot of Internet trolls fall into one of those categories.

Wind shear weakened the strength of the hurricane, but increased the likelihood of tornadoes.

Since I left college and started out into the "adult world", I've always spent less than I made, the rest going to savings or investments toward retirement. I accomplish this by "paying myself first". If I have already saved the money as my first priority, I can't spend it on things like rent or groceries. So my financial choices are forced to be more conservative by design.

Example: I forget what the max limit to IRAs were at the time (say $5k/yr) but for my first job I set up auto contributions each month and mentally took a $5k/yr salary "cut" for that job. Every time I got a raise, I made sure that at least a portion of that raise went to increasing my savings rate and attempted to avoid lifestyle creep.

Thanks to my savings, I've been able to handle some emergencies in cash vs having to utilize debt to cover the expenses. It really is a snowball. I started out small, now my savings is significant compared to my income.

I attribute a lot of my "pay yourself first" approach to reading The Automatic Millionaire, Expanded and Updated: A Powerful One-Step Plan to Live and Finish Rich early on.

Bama just got their 'quality loss' for the season.

It was refreshing to have a civil debate without yelling and name calling. Compared to the previous debate it's night and day.

I got a Forerunner 265 during Garmin's 100$ off sale. Waiting for my back to recover from getting tweaked to get back out running. Looking forward to all the new run features as well as daily fitness tracking.

Apparently dogs can get norovirus too. He threw up his meals twice. We were both miserable yesterday but so far this morning we both seem to be improving.

I'm just here so I don't get fined.

Another ls alias I'm a fan of is ls -latr which I alias to lt. It gives you a time sorted directory listing with the most recent next to your cursor (helpful for large directories).

Counterpoint. Maybe it wasn't the folksy music that resulted in her musical maturity and it was her hitting a milestone age. It's a well known fact that artists crossing the 34 year old barrier mature significantly and often hit their artistic stride. You can actually Google "mature rule 34" to see more examples of this!

Dave Ramsey got famous for teaching an educational series and books focused on getting financially illiterate folks out of debt and onto a path of relative financial security using his "baby steps." While not bad advice per se, he's not regarded as an expert if you are already able to self regulate your finances. It gives folks a decent starting point and some reasonable first principles, but he should not be considered to be the gospel of financial advice.

I think the underlying sentiment of the finance gurus in this scenario is not "don't help your family" but rather "you need to put your own oxygen mask on first before attempting to help those around you."

If your financial house isn't in order, helping someone out of their hole first only hurts your cause. (If you only look at finances in isolation and ignore significant relationships...)
