Yeah, that's how convection and radiation work. Do I notice it? No. Do I care? No. It's hot as balls with or without the neighbors house next door, I'll be running fans and the a/c regardless.

If you're asking for the engineering of it all, you're looking for study materials from Heat Transfer courses, keywords: convection, radiation, R-value.

In Texas, murder applies when the person

Intentionally or knowingly cause the death of another person [or] Intend to cause serious bodily injury and commit an act clearly dangerous to human life that results in death

While manslaughter means

if they recklessly cause the death of another person. Unlike murder, manslaughter does not require intent to kill or cause serious injury. It focuses on reckless behavior that creates a substantial and unjustifiable risk of death.

Sure reads like those charges should bump from manslaughter to murder.

Promoted twice since I last saw my boss in person. I asked him if would see any issue himself or for the company if I relocated myself back across the country closer to family; he was confused as to why I even asked.

He's not even a particularly good boss in most ways, but tons of people want to work for him because he stays the fuck out of their way.

I hum it off and on for literally years. Pretty sure I have hummed a bar of "my milkshake brings the boys to the yard" in public dozens if not hundreds of times.

I don't know any lyrics beyond that hook and I couldn't even tell you the artist/group. If I stopped to think why that song, it might bother me. So I don't think about it.

I need someone more insightful than me to explain how Trump and team could see this is a good idea for them. Obviously they're doing it to line their own pockets, yada yada, but there are 925 days left for Trump in office and this will collapse long before then.

I must not be smart enough (Dumb enough? Jaded enough? Flat out evil enough?) to put myself in their sweaty, ass-smelling shoes to understand why.

Edit: Duh. I think ToastedCoconuts and Hegar nailed it. Mid-terms.

Also how I water some of my plant, setting them in a pan of water to soak up from the bottom rather than water from above down onto the topsoil.

My aunt, age 65+, calls it "butt chugging" instead of the more common "bottom watering". I had the pleasure of seeing her use the term in front of her two adult gay sons this past weekend. Valiant efforts made to keep their faces straight.

On, no. Someone let the smoke out! The smoke is supposed to stay on the inside.

Didn't expect such a real answer.

The legit app I pay real money for was non-functional yesterday so I sailed the seas for a stream of Mexico v Ecuador and made the mistake of glancing at the chat as I went to mute the annoying "pop" sound from each new post. Sweet bebe jeebus that was a horrible half second.

Microsoft earlier this year announced a voluntary retirement program offering buyouts to employees level 67 and below in the US who had 70 or more years of age and service. About 7% of Microsoft's 125,000 US workforce, or nearly 9,000 employees, was eligible.

Weirdly written. Does that mean 7% of their employees were 70 years or older? Or that age + work years greater than 70 means eligible, like I'm 50 and worked t MS for 20 years, 50+20=70 so meet eligibility. Must be that one. "Level 67 and below" is also useless formation to someone who doesn't know MS levels.

Nope, I was one specifically not calling you a rapist. You go from head over heels with this ex to facing rape allegations and loss of all friends to being ready to propose in a matter of a month.

This is me as brutally candid internet stranger who doesn't care about being your friend - you might want to slow down a tick and get some therapy before you charge into another frantic, unstable, even dangerous relationship. Jumping out of an abusive relationship and immediately into a new relationship is one of the worst things to do, giving yourself no time to heal and get your head on right.

I'll block you now if you prefer. It bums me out to see a fellow human fight so hard for shit relationships.

I really hope this isn't with the woman who alleged you raped her. I think you would bother be better off forgetting the other even exists.

User tags exist. My tag for you is getting quite the few descriptors tacked on.

This and Project Hail Mary were my two mainstream to-watch list leads. PHM didn't disappoint, I hope this one lands too.
