Because downtown city centers were missing out on office worker revenue and started giving incentives to companies who brought people back into the office. I 100% believe the reason we went back into the office at all was because of this despite all the talk of 'in-person collaboration.'

As someone who is currently enamored with Meshtastic devices, several of which have built in GPS, this is making me wonder of future iterations of the software and being able to somehow utilize the directions on the mesh.

This series popped into my head as soon as I read what the original poster was looking for. As someone who loves building things, I've read through many Gingery books in the series with aspirations of building many of the machines. That said, the refractory sand for the foundry in the first book is still sitting in a bag in my garage.

Playing rec league years ago, I had always played with a full cage. I decided to go with a half visor to be one of the cool kids. Went to my local shop and it was a bit more expensive than I had planned so I figured I'd wait until the next week to buy it. That week, I took two pucks to the cage. I never did go back to buy the visor.

Nobody is making the Show from beer league, better to keep a full mouth of teeth.

I too play with a cage in a beer league. I'm used to the more limited visibility. I've seen too many horrors on the ice.

The puck has eyes of its own. It still seems to find my unprotected bits.

I wonder why the 50/50 ones (visor top with cage underneath) aren’t more popular? Juniors/Women I think are required to wear regular cages but for recreational players you’d think more would wear that type?

I got a used pro players helmet from my team for $20 after the season (they sell off all their gear to fans) which is great bargain for a really nice piece of equipment - but I wouldn’t dare playing games with it because it’s a visor obviously. I look like one of the cooler dads at the 4year olds’ skate practice though.

Because visors suck? They fog up and if they get wet you have to clean them.

Visits are basically mandated everywhere now (just the NHL will take 10 more years while everyone else has already made them mandatory)

If you are required to wear a visor anyway it feels like the version with a few bars covering the teeth/jaw can’t fog up that much more than just the visor alone?

Visors are mandatory in the NHL, players not wearing them before the ruling are grandfathered in though.

Sorry, i meant that compared to a cage. I'd take a cage over half and half every single time.

As someone currently living in Des Moines, this is all the city can talk about right now. Facebook is on fire with people going after the Register, pitchforks in hand. It is kind of ridiculous they'd dig up 8ish year old posts this guy made in a story about his generosity towards a children's hospital, but it seems that is what media has to do now to get eyes. The backlash on the Register has been swift and harsh, though, and with print media already on the decline, is probably pretty bad news for the paper overall.

Des Moines resident checking in.

I can't believe how quickly this has escalated. From a feel-good local story to national news and now the reporter getting fired.

What leaves the worst taste in my mouth is that the Register still hasn't apologized, and in their "statement", they still tried to shift blame back to Carson.

To get eyes and to CYA. In the current witch hunt environment you have to be be careful about ever praising someone. Later someone digs up a racist tweet and now you are the guy who praises a racist!

Or, ya know, the real experts.....parents on Facebook.

Well, you can do what you like but when it comes to complex medical issues my winning strategy is to wait for a Hollywood actor, famous musician, or a daytime TV host to tell me what to think.

You'd see it more if you look in finance. Outside of tax season, you can frequently see them at H & Arrrrrr Block.

You should check out CodinGame. I go on there from time to time to mess around with the challenges where you program the AI to do the task presented. Might be a fun way to get in the AI mindset.
