  • Sort of sounds like a take on the Italian salsa verde. I’d do some research on whether or not fried garlic will prevent botcolism from forming. It’s a risk when making garlic infused oil. The other thing I’d worry about is the less sturdy greens wilting.

    You might want to look into he European red pepper sauces likes Mojo Pican, Hungarian ajivar, or romanesco for inspiration.

    Good luck and I hope you make something delicious.



  • They want to keep their monthly mortgage payment between $3,000 and $3,500 — or around 30% of their monthly take-home income of about $11,000.

    This makes it seem like they only take home a little more than half their wages.

    Something doesn’t add up. The only issue I see is one might be an independent contractor. Or they’re excluding health insurance and 401k.

    Edit: some quick digging. First issue is the definition of take home pay.

    Take-home pay is the net amount of income received after the deduction of taxes, benefits, and voluntary contributions from a paycheck. It is the difference resulting from the subtraction of all deductions from gross income. Deductions include federal, state and local income tax, Social Security and Medicare contributions, retirement account contributions, and medical, dental and other insurance premiums. The net amount or take-home pay is what the employee receives.

    But the bigger issue is the 30% rule. 30% is on gross and not take home. This would give them a out 7k per month. I bet they’re following the advice of someone like a Dave Ramsey. These people are not victims.


  • People need to get over the candidate BS

    In one sense this true. Policies are set by a small army of party elites and admins. Presidents aren’t just policy makers though. They are the face of a country. Their words are powerful and institutions react to them. They also project a sense of competency and vitality to the world.

    it’s the politicians who deliberately trample them and keep these people in a perpetual state of misery, and then use racism to distract them from their pains.

    I think this is a one sided analysis putting all the blame on the Republicans. It fails to wrestle with purple states that became red states like Florida and the inability for Democrats to make lasting in roads in purple states.

    I just can’t believe the Red party is still given any serious consideration.

    Personally, I turn to history when I want to understand something that confounds me. It would be better if I could actually talk to some people and really hear them. But I live a major metropolitan center in a blue state so my access is limited.








  • This article has a hard paywall, so I found another source.

    According to this article it seems the impact was limited because it only effected the most recent Debian server release. So the issue was limited, discovered quickly, and easily fixed.

    The recent windows issues was extensive for all windows machines, discovered after massive outages, and difficult to fix.

    I’m not sure this is a win for Linux, but there a number of decisions that CrowdStrike made that failed to live up to the trust issue by WHQL certification.

    I think that this didn’t have the same extent for Linux is pure luck.
