It's likely linked to OR6A2.

I had a coworker who had this gene and TAS2R38, the one that makes people taste bitter stronger.

We ended up on several multi-country business trips together every year. So we were eating all sorts of local cuisine.

I always tried to sit where I could see her face during any meal. It was comedy gold at times.

That's easy:

True crime: she is educating herself to murder you.

Gagging over the gore: the main reason your still breathing.

From the interviews posted yesterday with some NK captives: They are ordered to not be captured. They are directed to commit suicide instead.

That's a pretty wild video.

This war is being documented like none before.

Those long distance carrier drones are making their mark. Hauling FPV drones deep behind the front line to attack high value targets.

Only traditional qualifications for being a parent: Functional gonads.

That limitation can be overcome to some degree today.

The place was a toxic cesspool at the time. An investment group had purchased 7 different companies and forced merged them in the space of 3 years and went on a massive hiring spree. The company I started with was 350 people. The company I left was over 4,000 people

It was an illegal layoff that I could taken them to court over. However the in-house lawyer knew what was going on and made them give me one hell of a severance package to stop me from suing them. I basically got everything I reasonably would have gotten if I sued.

That ended up being the most profitable year of my life.

My boss ended up CEO for a few years. It didn't go well. They have 1/2 the number of employees now and 50% less market share.

I am on my 3rd layoff in 10 years.

First one I had all sort of dirt on my boss who was kissing ass to climb the corporate ladder. I was a massive liability as I knew what a waste of space he was. They laid me off with some really week excuses and a years wage/benefits to keep me quiet.

Second one we got a new CEO who decided to make massive changes to the company "to make it more profitable". It hasn't shown a profit since and the layoffs are a yearly tradition now.

The last one was this past fall. Smaller company over-invested when times where good. Then the market turned around and they are in trouble. One of those small "family" businesses, me and 20 others got kicked out of the family.

So as of now I have my own business. I am on track to make 100% more than I ever have before working for someone else.

Just for shits and giggles I also have an interview tomorrow for a C-suite position in a tropical country. It's too fucking cold here.

Write a series of single query per e-mail.

Set then up on delayed delivery every hour through their workday.

It only takes once or twice until people read your entire e-mails.

My son's group in middle school hosted their own proxy overseas. They then pirated a whole bunch of educational videos that the teachers liked to use and made nice clean interface. The games pages had no direct links on the educational videos screens. They had to type in the the page directly in the URL.

So the teachers all loved the site and gave the official "approved for all students" bypass on the districts Chromebooks. The kids had uninterrupted access to all their games.

The kids were smart enough to keep the location of the games to students with a B or higher GPA. Most of the teachers turned a blind eye to them playing games when they did get caught. The games pages also had a home button that sent the students screens to a random educational video. I was truly impressed with their clever approach.

The IT department either never caught on or enjoyed the games themselves because its still up and they are all in highschool now.

Poor workflow management sadly is quite normal, not the exception. She was in her early 20's at the time, just completely computer and workflow incompetent. I have seen similar issues with people of all ages. It's not a generational thing, it's an aptitude and interest thing.

Many of the FPV drones appear to have a remote detonation ability now. There's quite a few videos of them landing drones next to russians playing possum. Then detonating them when they move.
