    The PE firm will sell the real estate to a holding company and pocket the money. The stores will have to pay rent to the holding company, which the PE firm will also pocket. 1/3

    Stores will be labeled as "underperforming", management will get replaced without addressing the underlying issues, until the brand goes entirely bankrupt because they can't pay the real estate holding company, and the PE will walk away with all the money. 3/3

    17yo's school computer somehow did ~60GB of SSL/TLS outbound in 2 hours, and that was ~85% of the entire day. "It's not like I'm running a cryptominer. I have that turned off in Opera." Get it off my network. Off off off.

    The only overhead a store can realistically cut is staffing, and management will be given impossible to reach sales and costs goals. They'll start cutting hours to stay under costs goals, and store performance will continue to decline as a result. 2/3

    That we've had multiple "don't do dumb shit on the same network as my government issued device" conversations is very frustrating. I need a 2nd router to completely segment him off.

    My wife is an RN on a COVID unit and I've had a 2nd row seat to this 8 month horror show roller coaster. I am so tired and feel like I'm having a constant anxiety attack, I don't know how she does it day in and day out. She is the most amazing person I've ever known.

    Sat down with @RonanFarrow's Catch and Kill intending to read a couple chapters before bed. It's now 2 hours later and I'm 173 pages in and GODDAMN.

    Migrations moved ~110gb today. Yesterday it was under 80. The PM is still trying to fit that reality into the "We can migrate a 10TB server in a weekend to cut over users on Monday" action plan. And there's 5 more servers. There is zero chance we cut over by the deadline.

    I played with the @NateSilver538's map tool last night and gave Trump every state that he's winning and every state that Biden is up by less than 5 in. Biden still wins. But I'm too broke-brained by 2016, even thought that result statistically makes sense, to not be anxious.
