    The guy seemed sort of prideful, exuding “we know what we’re doing and you don’t”.

    Well, there’s a reason your organization has a poor reputation. It isn’t because your people are skilled and do good work; it is because they don’t do good work.

    One of other agencies has a contractor that developed a site for them. We’re doing some first level support for certain users of the site, and the contractor has subcontracted 2nd and 3rd tier support.

    I finally got to talk to the subcontractor’s local boss. He said “We’re just here to help you guys become self-sufficient.” If that’s what they told him, he and his organization are going to be disappointed. Our folks are pretty skilled and very adaptable, but $EMPLOYER policy forbids us from holding administrator rights on another agency’s systems.

    1. 6 Dr. Seuss books won't be published anymore because they portray people in 'hurtful and wrong' ways
      from Amanda Watts and Leah Asmelash, CNN
      Six Dr. Seuss books will no longer be published because they "portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong," the business that preserves the author's legacy said.

    It was a busy day for #New_Zealand. There was an M7.3 #earthquake to the East of the North Island. A few hours later, there was an M7.4 quake to the Northeast of the North Island. Then came an M8.1 quake in almost the same location.

    There were some #tsunami warnings and advisories after the latter two quakes.

    https://www.livescience.com/21948-century-of-drought.html [www livescience com] This is from 2012, but it talks about expectations for a century-long drought.

    I haven’t seen any articles about it in a few years, but it used to be believed that the western US had such a long drought previously ... within the most recent 2-3 millennia a, but I don’t remember what century. It may still be believed, but I couldn’t find any references to it in a quick web search.

    1. Century of Drought May Be Ahead
      from https://www.facebook.com/livescience?cmpid=556687
      A drought that gripped western North America from 2000 to 2004 was the worst since the Middle Ages, but such extreme conditions may become normal during the next 100 years, finds a new study.

    1. Great apes at San Diego Zoo receive experimental COVID-19 vaccine for animals
      from https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=andrew.gebhart.75
      Following an outbreak among the zoo's gorillas in January, three orangutans and five bonobos were given a COVID-19 vaccine developed for animals.

    Accuweather says that Mercury and Jupiter will have a conjunction (when they appear close together from the earth) tomorrow morning (Friday, 2021-03-05), about an hour before sunrise.

    I am not planning to try to see it.

    • GeniusMusing
    @geniusmusing They only restrict consumer-facing uses, while the farm industry continues to use around 90% of #California’s water and industrial uses take 8-9%.

    The water industry has known for decades that our estimates of “normal” are based on a particular high-precipitation period, and that desalinization is the only way to sustain the current usage levels and population.

    The weird thing is that @corbin’s microphone goes weird after a certain amount of time, so generally when I’m watching those casts, it generally ends with Corbin needing to leave. But I think he uses the same one when he’s streaming games, where I haven’t heard the same things happening.

    Also, sonTwo’s $EMPLOYER called him back to work. It’ll be good to have something besides unemployment insurance benefits, with all their requirements (and the additional anti-fraud hurdles that states are erecting because of the magnitude of fraudulent payouts).
