Up the coast

A few pics from holiday travel.

The Irvine Potbelly is closed :(
No holiday party is complete without a gingerbread liqueur in a snow globe that lights up.
Checking the Big Bear cams. Those crowds.

Christmas

Hoth invasion vibes.

Christmas was pleasant. Dani loved her magnetic vegetable cutting board. I loved my white elephant National Lampoon gift box. There were dogs and bubbles and a few more rounds of Charterstone.

Around the county

We enjoyed the cold weather, the redwoods, and the cider in Sebastopol's new(-ish?) town center.

Travel

Flying to/from STS was pretty easy.

Charles Schulz airport Snoopy Red Baron STS terminal

The same was not true for people on Southwest.


		Just learned about this SWA shitshow	Anonymous
		It's so hosed	kshot
		It sounds like it lol	Anonymous
		Like 60-70% of flights just cancelled
Me	What stats for other airlines?
	Cause the weather looked srs.
			kshot
		Oof	Anonymous
		pretty sure the math says you can add everyone else up	kshot
		and southwest is still on top
	Did they not buy enough de-icer or what?
	Their schedules too tight so crap cascaded?
		scheduling software took a dump
Me	Lollll
		left all their pilots to hang out and dry
	Did they get cybered or did the parameters max out the 2080s running their data center?
	Like how does software go TU in 2022.
		lol	kshot
		From what I read there was a cascading failure after cancellations due to weather	Anonymous
		that was the first failure	kshot
		then scheduling took a dump
		Rip	Anonymous
Me	Cause it like tries to optimize rebooking everybody or something?
		Staff scheduling
	Hit the ol' programmer threshold of 'impossible scenario did not implement'?
		Lol
		People arent in the place the computer thinks they are
	Ah. That's why we need gps probes in the usual place.
		lol	kshot
	Some speculation that they are running old ass software and that the lack of hubs (in SWA's model) makes it hard to recover from large issues.

	Kshot get the hook ready and look for a flare near O69.
		Damn those are cool	Anonymous
		that's a short runway	kshot
Me	Oh suddenly runways are too short. [Ed: kshot recently upgraded from prop to jet]
		Must be the mo problems rappers talk about	Anonymous
		Lol	kshot
		Longer than a carrier	Cattle

And finally

Danielle
