A while back, people in Florida built an absolutely massive airport in the middle of the Everglades. They wanted to build the next big regional hub covering all of South Florida, but that never happened. So there’s a massive gigantic 12,000 ft runway, huge amounts of concrete apron, and space for a big passenger terminal that was never built. The runway remains open as a general aviation airport, and was until now mostly visited by students to practice touch and go landings.

My points:

1. The article summary saying it’s an airport used for training is true, but slightly misleading.
2. There’s a lot of things about this place that make logistical sense for the type of operation they want to do: cheap rent or land, lots of available concrete, not actually new build (easier environmental impact statement), easy on site access to a massive airport that can support jets of any size, low amounts of air traffic, and secluded from public view.
3. It’s not actually in Everglades National Park, and they aren’t filling in wetlands, like I’ve seen some say.

Those are probably not Cavendish bananas.

Several years ago at this point, Congress passed a bill, and that bill was signed into law by the President. What that law says, is that TikTok cannot continue under Chinese ownership. Byte Dance either have to sell the American video app business so that it is controlled by Americans, or they have to shutdown Tiktok.

Byte Dance did not sell the business, so under the law TikTok has to shutdown. This law was lawyered all the way to the supreme court, and the court said it’s a valid law, and must be followed.

Despite all of these facts, the law is not actually being followed. And Tiktok is still operating in the United States. There is no legally valid reason for it to do so. President Trump has issued extension after extension, even though he has no legal authority to do so.

The latest here is the top law enforcement officer in the US telling the app stores, “yes we know it’s illegal to keep Tiktok in your app store, but I am pinky promising we won’t go after you.”

The compilation step should only be happening on reboot after updates. Of course, that may be the only time you reboot your device.

Non-Euclidean geometry was developed by pure mathematicians who were trying to prove the parallel line postulate as a theorem. They realized that all of the classic geometry theorems are all different if you start changing that postulate.

This led to Riemannian geometry in 1854, which back then was a pure math exercise.

Some 60 years later, in 1915, Albert Einstein published the theory of general relativity, of which the core mathematics is all Riemannian geometry.

I have a relative that was in Nam and wears that hat, but he claims he was POG. I have another relative who lied about his age to get into Nam, who definitely was in the shit, and he doesn’t wear the hat.

I suggest you read the recent unsigned per curiam order in D.V.D.. The law of the land; it is a changin’.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia does not really have a “legal” status, as he has an active final deportation order, with withholding of removal to El Salvador only.

He can be legally deported to a third country (not El Salvador) that will take him. Pursuant to the supreme court’s decision yesterday, he can apparently be deported to these third countries with no advance notice whatsoever.

Of course, deportation would make it hard to appear in Tennessee for his felony case. But that hasn’t stopped ICE before. People have been arrested for failure to appear in criminal cases, because they entered ICE detention.

People have reported being sold into slavery after being deported to Libya. Mauritania criminalized chattel slavery in 2007, but the law is not well enforced.

This is it. The old Huy Fong is completely gone now, unless you have a connection to someone who’s been hoarding.

There’s a different sauce brand now that is produced by Huy Fong’s old pepper farm using the same peppers. But I’ve been told that’s not exactly the same either.

Olive oil, although it’s not really 1-5 extra where I am. There’s a lot of advice to buy cheap oil for cooking, but that’s not really true. The truth is that a lot of ‘extra virgin’ oil is sold in an old, rancid state, and you have to upgrade into the mid tiers to get away from that.

Buy the best olive oil you’re willing to spend money on, even for cooking.

At Waffle House, that’s over medium, or just an “order”. Over easy / “order lite” has some runny white.

Another analogy can be made to Operation Praying Mantis, wherein the United States destroyed half of the Iranian Navy.

If you want top speed, Fortran is faster than C.

This lawsuit is on a really narrow ground: the law says that when the president calls up a state guard into federal service, the orders must issue through the state governor.

In this case, the President wrote the words “Through: The Governor of California” at the top of the memos. But he never actually sent anything to Gavin Newsom, or gave California any formal notice at all.

This suit also doesn’t challenge the active duty marines, which are indisputably under Trump’s chain of command. But they can’t do domestic law enforcement unless the Insurrection Act is invoked (it hasn’t, formally).

The historical benchmark I use is this: Nixon was at 31% when he resigned. I think GWB also hit a similar number, but he never was facing articles of impeachment.

He was deported to Mexico (illegally), but he’s a citizen of Guatemala. After that, he travelled from Mexico to Guatemala on his own. So his return to US was facilitated from Guatemala.

For all we really know the agreement with El Salvador is a guaranteed one way deal that we pay them to handle and they’re refusing to play ball beyond that.

This seems to be the party line in the sealed ex parte filings that have been presented to judges. I’ve also seen allegations that the deal is a handshake deal only–nothing in writing.

Judge Boasberg at least is taking them at their word, with some strong warnings about perjury.

In 1953, the top bracket marginal income tax rate was 92%. And of course Europe and Asia were reeling from the loss and wealth destruction of the Second Thirty Years’ War. But let’s just not talk about that.

I didn’t know that the feds accredited universities. When I was in school, the one that mattered for engineering was ABET or somesuch.
