The key to questions is understanding if the set of possible answers contains any of the following: "because we're idiots", "we should have that, but embarrassingly we don't"
If so, tread with caution. Or don't, because red flags don't wave themselves.
question: probably bad form in an interview situation to tell the interviewer "Hey, I read your latest paper and noticed you plagiarised the introduction", right?
asking for a friend
Maybe he set it up as test? The first one to read his paper critically gets tenure?
The only real question I want the answer to in job interviews is "is it ok if I never get to the office before 10am", but I feel like this gives the wrong impression.
Eyyyyy fellow creepy-song bros. Considering I was such a quiet baby that my folks thought I had died several times via crib-death, that sounds morbidly apt. Then again, my mom jokingly says she "forgives me" for how much stress put her through during childbirth so I guess it's a wash.
26 hour labor because the ultrasound was detecting a 2nd heartbeat so they thought my mom was having twins, only to realize after she tried to give birth naturally I was one giant baby which resulted in an emergency C-Section.
13lbs 8oz
Yeah, she's still a lil' pissed about that.
My mom had a similarly long labor with me. My second middle name is that of my grandfather, on whose birthday I was supposed to be born but I decided to be a slowpoke. At one point the nurse who was on shift when my mom was admitted came back on shift. She got into the room and said "Oh my god Mrs Stedeth, you're still here!?"
Haha yeah, my mom still loves to tell a couple of stories about my birth in addition to my birth weight.
First was when she was into about hour 20 of labor and she was beyond exhausted and was wailing to the nurse, a large muscular black lady who had obviously seen some shit and knew how to deal with patients. She leans over to my mom's bedside and in that matter of fact, I know what I'm doing but I'm trying to comfort you somehow voice, replies "Honey...at this point there is only push...ain't nothin' else to do."
2nd after my mom was in recovery for a couple of post-delivery days, they moved me to the nursery and apparently I was bigger than the practice dolls they had for new parents to learn how to put a diaper on the baby so they got permission to use me as a demo. One of the nurses who showed me off to my dad as he looked through the glass lifted me out of my crib, looked down in surprise, then to my dad and mouthed "Damn big baby!" to my dad.

I've gotten pretty lucky with this so far, but I feel like I wouldn't be able to get away with it outside of West Coast tech jobs. My "9-5" is more "10:30-7".

I got up at 3am today so I could get to work early enough to finish up and be out before the MLS cup kickoff at noon. Made it home in time, even with going for a run after work first.
Got home, pulled the match up, did up some hotdogs, chips and jalapeno poppers with myself wrapped up in Sounders kit and YEAH BOY SOUNDERS WIN THE MLS CUP!

BTW, we got to win the cup in a home game with the largest turnout ever at the same stadium that hosts a major NFL team. Parade is on Tuesday, I'm already trying to figure out how I can duck out of work for that one but I don't think I'll be able to afford to.

So last week one of the network engineers in the company passed away suddenly. He's been with my mother company for 15 years.
They just had a little wake for him in the office and I didn't think I'd be crying this much.
Dirt bag of the week award goes to the lady who pushed past a 9 year old with a broken arm to proclaim she was the sickest person there and she needed to be seen right away. Spoiler: she was not the sickest person there by a long shot.

Crippling travel costs and also the team that's crossed 3 timezones will be at a pretty big disadvantage. So I guess you'd want to minimise that?

First snowfall of the year so of course everyone forgot how to drive. There was one car fully backwards, just sitting in the middle lane of the interstate, a saw another car spin out on the interstate, one down a deep ditch, and police responding to accidents at each exit along. The radio, when it got to the traffic report was a straight minute of reporting car accidents.
I had no issues because I don't drive like an idiot.

Our traffic has been like this but instead of snow, it's just getting dark really early now and people can't manage.

Yeah, just as long as the car in front of you doesn't drive like an idiot either

I stayed at work until 6 the other night and was surprised to be reminded how blind I am after dark. I'm fine walking around, but oncoming headlights fuck me right up.

She must have been pretty bad to be worse than SS guy.
I didn't think so... I also didn't think Tacoma stunk. True, I did not spend a whole lot of time in Tacoma, but I suspect my bad sense of smell had more to do with me not noticing then the absence of any aroma.

I have been muttering the lyrics to Amish Paradise under my breath all morning.
A teacher noticed and commented on the juxtaposition of an IT guy being up to his elbows in something electronic while muttering "...but that's okay for an Amish like me..." which made me realize it had been stuck in my head all day without consciously realizing it.

I have no particular reason for this.
I grew up a Mennonite in Dallas. A lot of people conflate us with Amish so they assumed we didn't have electricity. They'd then be surprised to hear my church had like 3 electrical engineers designing chips at TI.
Growing up in Texas I legitimately had people online assume I rode a horse to school.

It can vary from community to community but I know some Amish folks in Iowa were fine with riding as passengers in a car, it was just operating the vehicle that was verboten. Not like they took a taxi everywhere or anything though, more like special monthly trips into the city for toilet paper and such.

MLS has that weird league followed by playoffs doesn't it. I guess so the East and West Coast teams get to play each other?
Wonder why they don't just have a 24 team national league.

I found Fife to smell worse than Tacoma.
Sorry Zonugal. Fife stinks!

Well both teams would have to travel each way, home and away games. Plus I guess they have to travel quite extensively already anyway.
Travel costs I'll grant you.
I have never found another person in the world who even knows it exists

I bet it'll be the second most popular sport in the US in twenty years if it keeps on going at this rate
So... now I am tasked to research and set up an SQL database.
