Another option would be to hire an illustrator and draw up a contract where they may have a small upfront cost, and give them a cut of the sales.

Or you can contact a school and see if anyone would like to do it for ~~free~~ the experience

This album holds a place in my heart. It's what got me into the band back in '05. I can flash back to paying ~$15 for a ticket at the door at some really small venues. Thanks for posting this!

My understanding is that when signing a liability waiver, first the acknowledgement of risk happens, and then the release of liability. State by state it can be a little bit different for releasing liability, depending on the interpretation. I looked up where I live, and that liability waiver isn't upheld if one can prove damages (possibly death, in which case someone has to sue upon my lifeless corpse) caused by intentional recklessness, not simply neglect.

That's upsetting. Running a load test weeks ahead of time to identify the upper bounds of app and infrastructure would have be a good idea... But 🤷‍♂️ I've lived through large marketing initiatives where us engineers were not involved and didn't forecast a need to scale beyond normalcy before too.

Oh man, what a throwback

Fails song and passes the toy guitar

Hmm. That's a good point... Book both the aisle and window and hope nobody takes the middle! Depending on the route that's workable.

If that doesn't pan out, I suppose the situation is similar, but I'll get to make someone a bit happier by swapping, which is also a win.

Seriously, thank you. I got something out of this.

We have a tech literacy problem. We should strive to teach all who are willing to learn, and refrain from demonizing those who screw up. But yeah... Hopefully this bad experience is the push some users need to hear to take it more seriously.

Yeah, this is a pretty common thing for me as well. I prefer to sit by my wife on long flights (3+ hours) and will usually pay an enormous fee for a damned middle seat. Outside of that, pfft hell no. Then it's a toss-up whether I get what I want or not. The prices are pretty outrageous considering it costs nothing.

On exception was flying Lot Airlines to and from Poland. We picked seats together on both flights, and neither selection was honored. That was pretty BS. They couldn't fix it at the gate because the flight was full and it would be too difficult. 🤦‍♂️

I've appreciated seeing some throwbacks! Your had submissions that I haven't listened to in 15+ years. What's the harm in repeating bands?

This was a crucial step in Apple's journey into becoming a trillion dollar company. Dongles.

I absolutely love this video. It's a work of art.
