True, but there’s also a little more nuance.

For a social media ban to be effective without ostracizing individuals, it has to include the entire friend group.

As an analogy, if the kid’s friends all text each other, but your kid doesn’t have a phone, they miss out socially. They miss out on organized and impromptu hangouts. And they miss out on inside jokes that develop in the group chat. Over time they feel like more and more of an outsider even if the ready of the group actively tries to include them.

And with the upcoming acquisition

If your seasoning rinses off with mild soap and water, you might want to try some different seasoning methods. That might mean using a different oil, different temperature, longer heat time for the seasoning, etc. Or you might want to season it with thinner layers of oil multiple times in a row.

It only oxidizes when water can reach the iron. If you have a good seasoning on it, mild dish soap can’t lift it off, and water can’t reach the iron.

Making sure it’s completely dry (I dry mine with heat on the stove) and adding a thin layer of oil is a good idea too. There are often parts of the pan that aren’t well seasoned. On mine, it’s the part that touches the stove that’s most likely to rust.

Sterile and clean aren’t the same thing.

In an enterprise setting, you shouldn’t trust the server firewall. You lock that down with your network equipment.

Edit: sorry, I failed to read the whole post 🤦‍♂️. I don’t have a good answer for you. When I used docker in my homelab, I exposed services using labels and a traefik container similar to this: https://docs.docker.com/guides/traefik/#using-traefik-with-docker

That doesn’t protect you from accidentally exposing ports, but it helps make it more obvious when it happens.

If you have a good seasoning, it won’t wash off. “Seasoning” is the process of polymerizing oil. That hardens the oil and binds it to the surface. You’re more likely to burn the seasoning off or to scratch the seasoning and have it flake off than take it off with dish soap.

Whether you use soap or not, dry it on the stove and give it a light coat of oil after you clean it.

If this needed a permit + inspection, that could be a good route to getting the contractor to fix the work. Or having it inspected by the engineer.

Also, if you have a trusted third party fail the inspection and the contractor doesn’t fix it, you have good documentation for whatever next step you take (court, refusing payment, etc).

FYI, you can wash cast iron with soap.

Not using soap is a hold over from when soaps were more caustic (e.g. lye soap).

You worked there as an intern? In your field, do people expect to move from intern to full-time employee? If not, “the internship ended.”

You’re completely right. The contractor either doesn’t know what they’re doing or they’re cutting corners to be done sooner.

From the article, the new standard would be:

whether data is “personal” depends on what a specific entity says it can reasonably do or is likely to do with it.

Sounds like you need to raise your rate. And also not break out your wage from the other costs in the invoice.

Not-so-fun fact, ritual circumcision was practiced by many groups in the ancient world. The oldest written account of Egyptian circumcision is from the 23rd century BCE (which predates its use in Abrhamic religions by well over 1000 years).

I worded that poorly 😂.

“It was regraded by another instructor”

I’ve been following this situation. This article leaves out a ton of relevant info. Here’s some more details in no particular order:

• The assignment had nothing to do with transgenderism. It was to read and discuss an academic paper about socially enforced gender norms (e.g., bullying the tomboy for not wearing makeup).
• The instructor is a grad student.
• The same day the student filed the complaint, a second grader (a professor I think) re-graded the paper and confirmed the original grade.

Someone I follow on another platform pointed out that this looks suspiciously like a setup to stoke outrage and media attention.

• Samantha Fulnecky is a junior and this is a freshman course.
• This section of the course is the only section taught by a transwoman.
• The assignment is not a meaningful part of the grade. Think of it as a weekly assignment, not a major paper or exam.
• Samantha’s mother is a lawyer and conservative activist known for representing two Jan 6ers and for fighting COVID-related mandates. She has been in national news before.
• Samantha & mother contacted media outlets the same day Samantha filed the complaint (the regrade happened that same day too).

Someone already mentioned couples therapy, but I want to reinforce that. Yes, there are ADHD coping skills that you are personally working on. But if you’re both interested in improving your relationship, there are things that you can work on together (and many of them won’t be ADHD-related).

When you’re looking for a couples therapist, if you can find one that’s experienced with ADHD, that might be helpful.

One last thought. Sometimes when we have ADHD, we have some internalized ableism. I see some of that in your post: “took me a year to get off my butt,” “I wasted a whole year doing nothing.” Both of those statements imply you were “lazy.” Executive dysfunction can make simple tasks much harder. ADHD people often struggle with medical care. Things like finding a doctor, setting appointments (showing up on-time to an appointment), and getting prescriptions refilled can be huge hurdles. The key is to find systems and supports to help you handle those challenges.
