The crime wave is real, and even the most cosseted of archetypical leftwing reformers are noticing and resenting it. The backlash against permissive liberal governance is building, and they see it coming. But so, too, is the backlash against Covid mitigation measures that seem to ignore the nation’s vaccination rate. Will they wake up to that, too, in time? Kentucky State University Professor...

Need a quick, yummy gift for Christmas or any other occasion? For generations of Californians, the answer has been a box of See’s Candies. With stores that sport a black-and-white checkerboard design and offer a galaxy of sweets — chocolates, peanut brittle, butterscotch lollipops — the South San Francisco-based company is nostalgia in a box or bag.
Today, L.A. Times food columnist Jenn Harris talks with host Gustavo Arellano about See’s on the occasion of the chain’s 100th anniversary. And you'd better believe some taste tests are involved. (What’s that white-chocolate one that Gustavo has never liked?)
Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows held in Contempt of Congress. President Biden travels to Kentucky to survey tornado damage. Deadline day for holiday shipping. CBS News Correspondent Steve Kathan has today's World News Roundup.
Mark Bauerlein joins editor R. R. Reno to discuss his article “A Less Perfect Union,” from the January print edition. They discuss the mixed legacy of Lincoln’s actions and rhetoric, the heroism of the Southern military, and the necessity for more realistic embodiments of America, like Davy Crockett and Jack Kerouac.
Hey guys, we are narrowing in on the Christmas holiday's in the states. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New year! For today, I'm sharing yet another fantastic episode of the Compiler podcast, from Red Hat. As a reminder Compiler is a show hosted by tech veterans, discussing tech topics - big, strange and small.
On this particular episode - which is episode 10 - the topic of burnout is chatted on. This was a great discussion, full of really good tidbits. What I really liked was how Angela, Brent and Johan break down the ingredients for burnout. In order, these are:
An unending amount of work
Not having healthy boundaries on your work
Guilt, obligation, and never doing enough
Criticism amplifying 1-3
The hosts primarily interviewed folks, and come up with this recipe from the standpoint of open source maintainers. Interestingly enough, I find that these apply to software engineers as well. I think criticism can be interchanged with pressure as well, which probably has some criticism implicit in it.
However, I also find that lack of team or company direction can lead to burnout as well as an absence of mentorship. When people don't feel like they are growing, work can become stale. Perhaps its a little bit of burnout mixed with boredom, but at any rate, it leads them to not want to work there anymore.
At any rate, I really enjoyed this episode, and think you will too. Enjoy!

More than a year after a rebellion Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed promised to put down in weeks, the balance of power keeps swinging—and neighbouring states may soon be drawn in. To the chagrin of libertarian crypto types, regulators are weighing in on an industry now worth trillions. And the fed-up North Korean wives earning more than their husbands.

From 1969 through 1972 six Apollo missions landed on the moon and returned a total of 840 pounds of moon rocks to the Earth. Geologists were able to study them and learned an enormous amount about the composition and formation of the moon. However, those same rocks have been the center of several controversies and mysteries ever since they came back to Earth. Learn more about moon rocks and where they are now on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
