Link. They wanted to make a statement.

Link. I wish Tim a very happy retirement.

Link. We need an independent Apple funded entity to do hearings, and when Apple is at fault they should be fined.

Link. I went to Mojave around 10.14.5 and it has been ok (as @mjtsai also says). Catalina pretty dismal. There really have only been two good macOS releases.

Link. He was probably infected on the weekend at the SCOTUS super-spreader event. Infectious during the debate.

Link. Who can deny him a bit of knife twisting?

Link. Biden administration should look to Canada and Germany.

Link. Scalzi says it all for me.

Link. These people annoy me more than Trump or even McConnell.

Link. He flew on jet with Hicks *after* they knew she was infectious?! Did he know he was infected already?

If he was infected through Hicks then Biden probably ok.

Link. Between baseline odds and all the meds he will get (normally reserved for sickest or not yet available) he will be fine. Not so the people he’s misled.

Link. Developers need legal recourse.

Link. Keep this.

Link. More than one design.

Link. IFR not CFR. I’m interested in analysis of this but seems about right. Significant illness would be maybe 10x mortality rate?

Link. Oxygen sensor a gimmick.

Link. Fan fiction problem.

Link. Excellent point. He is exactly what you see. There is nothing there.

Link. Bummer. I’d not heard of many and wondered about doing more at the locall JCC. MN numbers rising now.

Link. Wow. I’d meant to but ran into other iOS and MacOS bugs that delayed me. Saved by Apple’s disinterest in customer satisfaction!

Link. Enormous tax dodges for the monied.

Link. Dinosaurs. How smart were them raptors?

Link. Poor Donald.

Link. QAnon channels Trump and hallucinates about Libs taking blood from kids. Trump and Thiel are best buds. Trump accuses others of his own sins. So he’s getting blood donations from Thiel?

Link. This is neat to read with hindsight. (via Jon Udell)

Link. He’s been thinking about this kind of problem for a long time.

Link. Quite readable and interesting.

Link. Eitzen MN, QAnon stronghold. Racist too.

Link. Need this and more.

Link. He’s in the wrong party.

Link. Well, at least our predictions are accurate.

Link. How many calories in a coronavirus?

Link. I saw this one.
