Pros and cons of Sean McDermott hiring by the Las Vegas Raiders https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/raiders/pros-and-cons-of-sean-mcdermott-hiring-by-the-las-vegas-raiders-3609338/

Reclaimer, spare that tree!
Take not a single bit!
It used to point to me,
Now I'm protecting it.
It was the reader's CONS
That made it, paired by dot;
Now, GC, for the nonce,
Thou shalt reclaim it not.

In 2026, I'm gonna go to more #cons and do more #cosplay.
I had some amazing times at #DestinationStarTrek before Paramount nuked Euro cons.
I'd like MORE!

the nytimes profile of How Epstein Got His Wings reminds me a lot of Tom Ripley, but with less murder. Ripley had a talent for math, Epstein started as a math teacher. Ripley's entry into wealthy lifestyle began with fixing some rich guy's taxes, Epstein gained access to wealthy patrons with tax-avoidance advice. they both played piano while running all types of self-interested cons on all their charmed associates. etc.

Evaluating BBRv2 on the Dropbox Edge Network
Nowadays, loss-based TCP congestion controls in general and CUBIC specifically became the de facto standard for the Internet. BBR congestion control challenges the loss-based approach by modeling the network based on estimated bandwidth and round-trip time. At Dropbox, we've been using BBRv1 since 2017 and are accustomed to its pros and cons. BBRv2 introduces a set of improvements to network modeling (explicit loss targets and inflight limits) and fairness (differential probing and headroom for…

Cédric Weissert, chef de groupe UDC, «c’est l’apothéose»: «On se sent abandonnés. Nous avons soutenu ce gouvernement par fidélité et il nous lâche au dernier moment. Nous sommes frustrés et en colère. La gauche n’a pas besoin de retrouver la majorité en 2027, c’est déjŠ elle qui dirige ce canton. Ce Conseil d’Etat avait pour une fois l’occasion de montrer qu’il avait du cran. Eh bien c’est raté et ça nous donne une bonne raison de refuser ce budget.»
