If they're doing similar to what was mentioned back in April there is some calculation about current age + years of service that could be tempting to people on the "bubble" of retirement.

Like with any deal, it's important to be able to run the numbers at any time.

I did the same thing. For years I've managed tasks, deadlines, and habits in orgmode. It works well, but I can't always live inside Emacs. So I vibed a desktop and mobile app that checked all my boxes. It'll only work for me and my weird and ancient org-agenda file locations, but has become a game changer for me. No more fighting with systems I don't understand or unneeded features.

Clippy is a great little project he did in electron: https://felixrieseberg.github.io/clippy/

there was a time when i would have a window open to a spacex web camera as they were building a launch site.

i looked those up, that's pricey gear. is that a similar app abandonment like with Sonos deprecating and moving to newer protocols?

Sort of. The company released a new model and deprecated its older ones. It’s still possible to control the amps with the (really neat) physical remote.

This is great use of AI and Fellesferie :: The model is unavailable in July. This is not a bug. It is arguably the most effective capability control anyone has proposed.

I've never really liked Destination Dispatch elevators. Besides struggling to find the car I've been assigned to, sometimes you really have to hustle across the lobby to catch it. Then you also run into visitors that assume it's a normal car and can hit a floor button when the get in, only to realize they've walked into a car without buttons.

I work in a building with Destination Dispatch elevators so I'm used to them. I have the opposite problem where I'll get into a normal elevator and just stand there without pushing anything.

What makes me more peeved about destination dispatch elevators are people who aren't used to them, and all pile into an elevator without hitting a floor, thinking one input is enough for everyone. Then, a totally full elevator stops at intermediate floors to pick up callers, but there's no room to get in. If everyone put the floor in as they arrive to the elevator lobby, then the elevator would know how many people are in the elevator and won't overfill them.

The elevators I've seen have a "group call" feature slightly hidden in the menu.

That’s awesome! I haven’t really played with them, only silently seethed when the elevator is crowded.

I have the same question - My guess is at that altitude, temperature, and under an ice sheet, and silt until the lake was drained. Here's the paper: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/in...

I just spent an hour on-line reading that PC Magazine from December 1999. Amazing that it's over 227 pages. There's a piece on portable CD-RW drives, and the ads, the classifieds section, a lot to take in during that epoch at the end of the 90's. I miss those big spread ads from Compaq and CDW. But my favorite piece in this issue is the "technical excellence awards" feature. They highlight this new webapp called "Google": https://archive.org/details/PC-Mag-1999-12-14/page/110/mode/...
