I wouldn’t say I love it, but Panda Express is my go-to when I’m hungry and there’s one nearby.

That correction is going to be a mess. My company headquarters are in a medium-sized US city. We own (and used to occupy) two downtown office building, a mid-rise and a high-rise. Right now both buildings are mostly empty, with little prospect of them being occupied in the near future.
Still full time remote. I do miss the face-to-face contact with my co-workers, but do not miss my 2 hours a day bus commute.
Prior to the pandemic, I had a couple of co-workers who were already full time remote and everyone was allowed to work from home a couple of days per week. But during the pandemic we recruited nationally, so there’s no way my company can put the WFH genie back in the bottle. They’re currently talking about right-sizing our office needs and building collaborative spaces; another sign we’re not going back.
The New Yorker article said Cuban was approached to be a donor, but it doesn’t say whether he is actually a supporter. Apparently, the group is very close-lipped about where their money is coming from (what a surprise).
I don’t want to turn the thread into too much of a political discussion, but when one political party believes in democracy and one party is an existential threat to democracy, there’s no room for spoiler candidates.
N.K. Jemisen is one of my favorite sci-fi/fantasy writers. If you like her style and world building I’d highly recommend the Broken Earth trilogy.
The murderbot stories get so much praise but I was never able to get into them. I binge read (well, actually binge listened) to the Rivers of London books a few months ago and thought they were first-rate.
I just finished the new Ann Leckie book, Translation State, which I liked very much. If you couldn’t get enough of the the Imperial Radch universe it’s a must read.
This seems like a golden opportunity for distros like Suse and Ubuntu, who offer enterprise support for their free product, to poach some RHEL customers.
Twitter still has devs?
