Here’s why I remembered to stop at this patch of wild licorice that the county had attempted to mow down (and. in the process, had snagged the guardrail with the large mower behind the tractor). #oops
Attention song-writers.
If you are a fan of Harry Chapin's "30,000 pounds of bananas" song. Source material for a sequel is now available:

McDonald's PAC donated $1,000 to Sen. Bob Menendez's, D-NJ, campaign on June 17.
That's the same day Menendez reported to prison to begin an 11-year sentence for accepting bribes.
(Note: though, not funny for recovering alcoholics or people allergic to alcohol)
BBC: Warning issued after US energy drink cans accidentally filled with vodka
"US authorities are warning consumers of Celsius energy drinks to check their cans after some were accidently filled with vodka.
The US Food & Drug Administration (USFDA) issued the warning for the Astro Vibe Blue Razz edition of the drink.
The mix-up came about after a packaging supplier mistakenly shipped empty Celsius cans to the vodka seltzer company High Noon, which filled them with alcohol."

Ouch. A brand-new ANA 787-10 on delivery from the Boeing 787 factory in Charleston, South Carolina #KCHS on July 18 was taxiing out and clipped its wingtip against the tail of a parked Breeze Airways A220-300. The A220 had diverted to Charleston and was waiting for fuel with passengers aboard. 2 injuries aboard the A220. Both aircraft were taken out of service for repairs. https://asn.flightsafety.org/wikibase/528264 #aviation #travel #avgeek #oops

I don't watch or attend a lot of conferences and talks these days, probably for the same reasons you shouldn't watch as much tv and believe it all as you used to.
But to me, at least, this is a deep and serious one worth your time in a fundamental way. If you are a programmer who actually cares about code and people who are exposed to that code.
Accidentally overtipped the pizza delivery guy by 20.00, I guess I made his day!
zfs on linux tip: use serialno based device names *not* /dev/sd# labels that are dynamically assigned (like say due to slightly different disk spin-up rates at boot).
If you fail to do that, zfs unmount POOL, zpool export POOL, zpool import -d /dev/disk/by-id/ POOL can get you fixed up.
Lol just saw something about "AI software CEO on Jumbotron" #oops
The UK is giving the vote to 16 and 17 year-olds. But it doesn't look good for the #Starmtroopers. For that age group, the most popular party leader is the possible leader of a party that doesn't yet exist. Worse still for Sir Kid Starver, the person who soundly outpolled him is the former leader who was smeared out of office. #oops
Net approval with 16/17 year olds:
Corbyn +16
Davey +3
Denyer +3
Starmer +1
Badenoch -2
Farage -6
