Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.


Interest.


I am low key irritated by the number of people I know who continue to travel to the US. And for pure recreation because the sales are so good.


I think we are saying the same thing. They just explained it better. Renminbi is conceptual, yuan is physical. I could be wrong then. It’s been 20 years since I learned it and haven’t needed that nugget.


It’s been explained to me that renminbi vs yuan is the same as cash vs dollar. The dollar and yuan is the currency. Cash and renminbi is the concept of money
There is another comment that explains this much more clearly.


Yes. We have been talking about it for 30 years at this point.


Around here the telehandler is known as a zoom boom. And if you call it anything else you reveal yourself as full of book learning without any job experience.


I don’t have an answer for Afghanistan. We suck. Iraq? My understanding is that we wouldn’t go without a UN resolution which was not forthcoming. We have officers posted in other countries for various exchanges and they fought with their host countries. So we had a few hundred people there in various roles. I don’t know about the clandestine participant.


We have. Notably during the World Wars. But we didn’t instigate those conflicts. We managed to avoid Viet Nam. We were involved in Korea but that was following a UN resolution.


Canada? We’ve been in a bunch of fights but haven’t picked them ourselves. Consider the bloody battle for Han Island as an example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_War


Because the laws of the Caymans allow corporations to keep owners and directors secret. So once money hits the Caymans it becomes nearly impossible to trace.
This film sort of explains it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Laundromat_(2019_film)
It’s your language too. You can still answer.

Adding to this that anyone worth pitching does everything they can to avoid contact with unsolicited scripts. When they want one they grab one they’ve already optioned or go with established pros. So if the mailroom guy is your worry, then you’re already out of the running. And the mailroom guy won’t have any better luck with it anyways.


Ribeye. Full stop.

We don’t usually remember them. We have dream fragments but don’t usually remember entire dreams. And you probably only remember one when you will have 5-7 full dreams a night. You can train yourself to remember if you dream journal ( I did this for a while in my teens) and gave it up.
Number one they weren’t all that interesting in aggregate. Just bizarre and disturbing (most dream content has a negative emotional quality to it). Second you can get really good at remembering them, and it was taking an hour every morning just to write them all down.
100% whatever trailcam fits your budget. They are robust against weather and other insults, crazy battery life, and some have remote monitoring. Don’t overthink this one.


It would have no effect whatsoever. All of that learning stuff is forebrain function. It’s hard to acquire, and the first thing to go when under stress or intoxicated. People make all kinds of bad decisions when they know better. They splurge on vacations when they are already paying interest on credit card balances. They sleep with strangers while they want to keep a stable home life. They buy too much car or spend to much on clothes for little hits of feel good when they would be better off saving money.
Knowing something doesn’t equate to action. And the impulse to gamble can easily over ride some school lesson on poor odds of winning.
You have a lot of unattractive people too. The system needs everybody.
If anything, the attractive are in over supply and good nondescript character actors are in demand.
