I got to visit the last time I went to see my dad’s side of the family in Oregon and I realized that the Pacific Northwest probably gives a pretty similar climate to much of Japan. I’ve never been to Japan but had moments where I felt like I was actually there.

I got my primary care doctor from a family member recommendation. Most specialists I see are based on her recommendation (even if there’s not a formal referral). My wife has a less-common medical condition and found her primary care doctor from a local Facebook group for people with the condition where people were sharing doctors they’d had good experiences with.

I think that insurance I had in the past or currently has some sort of lookup for doctors in-network and people were able to leave reviews. I’ve actually had some success with that, trying to see from the reviews who I might jive with. I feel like I’ve had more success from talking with people and seeing if they like their doctor, though.

May I suggest using The Infosphere instead of the Fandom wiki? It’s not as mobile-friendly but also isn’t riddled with ads

Here’s the Google blog post announcing it: https://blog.google/products/android/quick-share-airdrop/

It’s one of the very small number of books to defeat me. The narrative part was okay but every other chapter was full of wildly inaccurate “natural history” descriptions of whales and their lives and I just couldn’t take it.

It doesn’t even seem clear that the real Bobby Dunbar was kidnapped. He disappeared while on a fishing trip. An accident seems more likely than a kidnapping.

I’m sure there are many jobs AI is not capable of doing but some CEOs probably do a bad enough job that an AI chat bot could probably do better.

I know we like to dump on CEOs all the time but a good CEO does not seem like one that could be replaced by AI, certainly not by what is currently being hyped. There are just a lot of highly visible companies with CEOs who aren’t actually very good. I suspect the dysfunction of publicly traded companies and the goals of Wall Street investors (or other nations’ equivalents) frequently not aligning with a good long-term health of a company has a strong influence on this.

And of course these guys will be happy to have AI replace them; they’ve already made boatloads of money and think they’ll be able to keep that going even if they lose their job.

It’s just a term I’ve never heard but I’m not very familiar with waterfalls or terms used in hiking or wilderness areas in general. It’s something I’d like to get into but my wife and stepdaughter have health and mobility issues that keep them from being able to walk long distances very much.

I’m so sorry about your grandpa; I’m glad Sandy was there to comfort you

What is a 2x2 waterfall?
