CNN: Holland Has Solved This Problem; Why Can't The US? RotoHockey2013MainPort Aug 30, 22:48

Read a couple hundred comments from the article, and not much else to add to those. Interesting enough article. Thanks. {nm} TJNFL1 Aug 31, 03:22

The problem is Texas is so pro-business and anti-environment that there's little regulations to build in blood plains. {nm} Antibody Aug 31, 09:12

oops, *flood. {nm} Antibody Aug 31, 09:12

U.S. economy grew at a 3.0% annual rate in the April-June period, an upward revision from the 2.6% pace reported last month. TJNFL1 Aug 30, 18:03

That's it? You probably don't want to know the rate up here... dubord.s Aug 31, 19:55

4.5% in Q2 on a quarter-on-quarter annualized basis (that is compared to Q2 2016). Nice Quarter. Keep it up. TJNFL1 Sep 01, 01:31

here's hoping {nm} slipping jimmy Aug 29, 22:01

Isn't his role in the series kinda like SBEAN in GoT? {nm} Antibody Aug 30, 09:33

At this point I don't know. They keep changing things every week as they fire the showrunner and hire a new one apparently. {nm} DTravel Aug 30, 11:18

the trailer just looked so generic, certainly not enough to make me shell out for CBS Access. should have gone the BSG reboot route slipping jimmy Aug 30, 11:24

They can't just do a reboot - the rights are a mess and part of the problem with STD DTravel Aug 30, 12:35

The films are the reboot. Discovery is darker as it goes against the Roddenberry rule of no conflict within Starfleet. {nm} Antibody Aug 30, 15:13

I hope the rumors of a new Millennium Falcon UCS LEGO set are true...and I hope it's at a price I can live with =P {nm} tealfan Aug 29, 15:14

I'd say there are better odds on the former than the latter given LEGO prices... {nm} dubord.s Aug 29, 19:22

Rumors are true. Leaked photos are floating around. Price you can live with... don't bet on it. {nm} sloopsjohng Aug 30, 07:15

So airlines are trying to go pilotless, restaurants trying to go cashier-less, and now dominos trying to go driver-less. for all the talk of islander Aug 29, 05:45

Key point is the elimination of 'basic' jobs (manufacturing, low-level service, etc.) dubord.s Aug 29, 09:31

Not just basic jobs though. Pilots. Medical diagnosis based on imaging (eg X-rays, MRI etc.) {nm} RogerMore Aug 29, 10:56

Both of those are positions whose key skills have been eroding with reliance on tech dubord.s Aug 29, 11:26

ALL jobs are becoming more reliant on tech and all programming is just a series of IF-THEN decision trees. {nm} DTravel Aug 29, 12:40

Sure, but the point is that they're not basic jobs, they are jobs with skill requirements. Paralegals are going to go the same way. RogerMore Aug 29, 12:55

Teaser for Heathers TV series Antibody Aug 28, 09:55

Interesting, one of the Heather is a guy Antibody Aug 28, 09:56

Don't assume a guy. Aren't you more 'woke' than that? :) Could be a trans woman. {nm} The User fka Skamanfu Aug 28, 12:19

True. Brendan Scannell is a male actor. The character is apparently "genderqueer". {nm} Antibody Aug 28, 14:10

Conidering so many other shows have gone the non-binary moniker already, smart of them to mix it up with gender queer. {nm} The User fka Skamanfu Aug 28, 16:38

If Hollywood insists on remaking every movie with an all-female cast, then maybe they should make an all-male Heathers? {nm} dubord.s Aug 28, 14:09

dudes don't act like Heathers {nm} slipping jimmy Aug 28, 14:21

I know a few, and nope, not all of them are part of the LGBTQ+. :) Guess they're okay not conforming to society's view of masculinity. {nm} The User fka Skamanfu Aug 28, 16:40

it's not society's view. it's just not how guys socialize in high school (your few notwithstanding). nobody would buy it as a premise {nm} slipping jimmy Aug 28, 17:34
