Realized I now have the skills to tailor all those button down shirts that never fit me!Only problem is, I don't ever wear button down shirts anymore (so seldomly, I only realized last week that the dress shirt I wore to a college graduation a year ago was still crumpled up in the bottom of the garment bag.) #sewing

Luftgefecht zwischen Indien und Pakistan: Europas Kampfjets Chinas Modellen unterlegen https://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/ausland/internationale-politik/id_100735508/china-so-sehr-sind-die-j-10c-jets-den-europaeischen-modellen-ueberlegen.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

The problem with multiple measuring devices is not knowing which one to trust. This is with just the fridge running. I moved the cheapo shunt to just the fridge. The victron smart shunt is on the the whole system. And the dc clamp meter is on the fridge circuit.I trust the smart shunt the most, and the clamp meter reading is closer to it than the cheapo shunt.The cheap shunt is for cumulative fridge power usage. But it’s reading too high. Adjusting for that it’s 272ah and 3.6kWh over 65hrs. So 55wh per hour. 1.3kwh per day.This includes the initial start up which took at least 12hrs to cool to temp. And the fridge is mostly empty. If kept full might be able to get consumption down to 1kwh per day. We’ll see.

Je suis choqué par la rigidité des rules de #TipKit qu'on ne peut créer qu'avec une macro et donc qu'avec des trucs static et avec aucune liberté dans le bloc de la rule. Et puis même si c'est utilisable en #UIKit on sent que ça a été pensé pour #SwiftUI.D'ailleurs si quelqu'un a une idée de pourquoi la croix sur un Tip reste inactive et ne ferme pas le Tip dites le moi .

Of course the awkward account registration process, confusing documentation and not-very-friendly API front end has to be on a financial site.

The Guardian: Revealed: UnitedHealth secretly paid nursing homes to reduce hospital transfers"...The company also monitored nursing homes that had smaller numbers of patients with “do not resuscitate” – or DNR – and “do not intubate” orders in their files. Without such orders, patients are in line for certain life-saving treatments that might lead to costly hospital stays.Two current and three former UnitedHealth nurse practitioners told the Guardian that UnitedHealth managers pressed nurse practitioners to persuade Medicare Advantage members to change their “code status” to DNR even when patients had clearly expressed a desire that all available treatments be used to keep them alive...."https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/21/unitedhealth-nursing-homes-payments-hospital-transfers#insurance #greed
