What’s a use for an ambiguous QR code panel where you can’t predict which of two codes may be scanned? I’m struggling to come up with anything that makes sense where the mechanism potentially slightly favours one or the other depending on the scanner/ tones used.
Nice perse
The tiniest park in the USA is located on a city street corner in Portland, Oregon. Mill Ends Park
Edit: I fell down a rabbit hole. Corrected myself having posted it originally as “world’s smallest park” which is how I knew it - apparently it carried that distinction until Feb this year when a tiny space on a Japanese street (which was created in 1988) formally applied for, and was awarded the Guinness book of records title of World’s Smallest Park.
Also this one just popped into my head - the Guinness Book of Records was originally conceived as a means of settling arguments by compiling factual “records”. The original argument related to a shooting trip in England in which the Managing Director of Guinness Breweries partook, where a missed shot led to a disagreement about the fastest game bird. The realisation that arguments such as this would be commonplace, and that no resource existed to settle such matters - the niche for capturing these types of facts was identified and the book was born.
I think generally our teachers sent a child as a carrier pigeon
I have spent years working with business systems and CRMs and I have some questions if you feel like answering. I may not know what product you should pick, but it should help you narrow down the tools. What kind of consulting do you do eg. What industry? What business processes do you need to manage in this tool? Is this purely about contacts and opportunities? Presumably you want to generate a quote from the CRM? Does the CRM need to have a list of products/services or rates that you can add to a quote? What do you use for Accounting? (Eg Invoicing, pays, etc) do you expect integration? For your actual service delivery, do you have a work management tool? Eg Jira, TRELLO, something else…? Do you need email integration with CRM? What about clients expressing interest via your website to create leads? Cost per seat budget?
Im not trying to add complexity - reality is it’s a total crapshoot for anyone not in your company to recommend a tool that’s fit for purpose without this kind of info - and I can think of dozens more questions to add. I don’t mind giving you a hand scoping it out if you’re interested. Some basic BA stuff now will see you implementing a tool sooner, more cost-effectively, efficiently and smoothly with the least disturbance to your team compared with starting to search without a clear scope.
People already came and shared their knowledge. My first thought was vitiligo - I don’t want that to be hurtful for anyone who experiences it, I just saw the plane as a living entity and it’s paint was multi-toned and it’s what came to mind. No shade, no judgment. I have three colors: red, white, and peel - so anyone with melanin anywhere is ahead of the curve on me!
Cap’n bears a striking resemblance to Joaquin Phoenix.
A hotel in a mining town, one of a few contractors stay at when they can’t get accommodation on site. Mining town = lots of alcohol abuse = occasional fights and violence. They’re never well-appointed places, people always come and go with filthy clothes and boots from site so there’s a level of dirt that could never be cleaned. Didn’t care too much about that if the sheets and towels were clean, but the room was on the outside facing the main road and the door frame was recently (and very poorly) repaired after someone very clearly had booted the door in. Slept with the tool bag open by the bed in case the owner of said boots didn’t get the message that the prior occupant had left town.
I think Mallrats is very in this vein - just more PG than Clerks.
But you do have Mt Hood and the Columbia River and the coastline to console you. 😍
It holds up. Geena Davis is a straight up bad-ass boss mutha fucka!
Jeeze, I’m an outlier - my first thought was the beautiful spiral of a pine cone. Anything that has the Fibonacci spiral, but picking up a pine cone from a quiet, rain-soaked forest path where every footstep is cushioned by fallen needles and leaves. There are many types of cones, but the hard ones that have spread all their seeds form the most beautiful and uniform spirals. To a non-believer, it feels like one of the greatest arguments for the existence of an intelligent higher power

Oh, I was just taking a breath - I hadn’t finished…)
It depends on your activity levels, metabolism, age etc. in general that amount of protein (assuming your diet is consistent) will keep your muscle mass constant and keep your brain functioning well (and other bodily functions - it’s not siloed in its purpose and basically impacts every aspect of your body’s functions . Your body’s processes are not solely reliant on protein but if you don’t have enough your neurotransmission and cognitive function will suffer. If you consume less protein than your base amount for a prolonged time, your body doesn’t have what it needs to maintain core functions and renew and maintain muscle mass. If you don’t consume enough calories overall you’ll find your body will consume its own muscles as a source of energy which is a dangerous metabolic process that can have lasting detrimental effects.
Basically over a short term or one day in a while, not consuming enough protein shouldn’t be an issue, but on a consistent or prolonged timeline, your body just doesn’t have what it needs to maintain itself and you are at risk of longer term impacts to your wellbeing in many facets of your basic bodily functions. I’ve read numbers like .75g per kg for women and .84g per kg for men daily, for basic maintenance of bodily condition. Obviously it isn’t One size fits All, but as a general jumping off point I think that’s a reasonable ballpark. Basically if you’re healthy, and assuming all other things being equal, those amounts should maintain your current state.
I had no idea a single symbol existed for an interrobang?!
I think it’s a case of a Chinese artist who is accustomed to drawing people with traditionally Chinese facial features, having a crack at a turd wrapped in a sausage casing, rolled in cheese dust, and struggling to distinguish a different set of facial features and is bringing their own lens/technique to it.
It can’t get away fast enough!
