Got home from work today. Realized I’ve been walking around meeting clients with a giant 6-7 in rip in my pants that no one said anything about. So I figured the internet should also know.

Ask HN: "Tell Me about a Time...”

I have interviews next week that I'm very nervous about. I'm excited about the job and know I can do it well. However, I know for a fact that it'll be a very long day of "tell me about a time when you failed" and "what's the worst thing your previous manager would say about you". After a day of that, it'll take a while to recover from the bad feelings, especially if the result is the usual ghosting.

Any advice how to deal best with this awfulness?

A mailman was retiring after running the same route over 20 years, he had gotten to know the people pretty well so he left little notes of appreciation in their mailboxes...

The next day he gets to the first house on the block and the couple there greet him with a going away present and say there goodbyes.

This goes on for the next few houses.

But about 5 houses in a lady greets him at the door in nothing but her underwear. She snatches him inside and proceeds to give him the best fuck hed have in 20 years. When they were done she kisses him says her goodbyes and hands him a dollar.

Not knowing exactly what just happened he said, "my that was lovely but whats with the dollar?"

She says "when i told my husband yesterday that you were retiring, he said fuck him, give him a dollar."

Ask HN: Any experiences flying with a 2015 MacBook Pro after the FAA warning?

I am using a 2015 15-inch MBP for a project and really need to bring it with me on a trip soon. But the FAA recently put out a warning/ban on these due to a battery recall, and some airlines are banning them from planes in various configurations.[1]

According to every news source, the only devices covered by the FAA order are serial numbers eligible for recall per Apple's support page. And the device I have at home isn't one of those. But... I really don't trust the TSA to be willing to type the serial number into a support page to verify that at the airport. It seems more likely that they'd just see the laptop and turn me away at security, which would be an expensive mess.

So, has anyone successfully flown with one of these that has a non-recalled serial number?
