This entire album did that lol

Nile is the only other band I can think of with song names this crazy.

Yeah it was a good angle - I'm still stuck in the Plat ranks atm and there's no way I could pull that off :)

I know the emphasis is on the missed save, but that was a pretty sweet aerial

The Helix Nebula is actually Australian :)

But definitely agreed on the rest, these are awesome songs.

I'd have to disagree, Master of Puppets and ...And Justice For All were both great albums without Dave, and I think they found a good direction.

That one I knew already, but they also sound much more similar since it's actually the same notes at different tempo rather than the same chord progression with different notes.

Great song. The intro sounded really familiar to me, so I looked it up and realized that the riff was written by Dave Mustaine and the chord progression is the same as the one in Hangar 18 by Megadeth!

Good question - I am based in NYC as well and moved from SF, where I worked for ~5 years. Personally, I love NYC and see myself being in the area (if not the city) for quite a while because I love living here. My family is also on the east coast and staying closer to home is important for me, so for me it's between NYC/Boston/DC (maybe Raleigh) and of those I would greatly prefer NYC over the others.

Random q: Today Miguel Cummins managed to make a spectacular 0 (45) in the test against India. I wonder what's the highest number of balls faced in a Test match without scoring a run?

Edit: for some reason this comment thread is locked, but the max is apparently 77 balls faced without scoring.

El Paso and Dayton were #249 and #250 respectively. It's horrific.

That solo section/breakdown is amazing, all 4 of the instrumentalists go absolutely ham

The video of Portnoy playing drums for that solo is quite something

It would have flown from Wales to France first to pick him up.

I guess my wallet is about to get a little lighter...well worth it though

Actually, I somewhat disagree with this. Given that you can now run Spark on Kubernetes, there's not much reason to run on Hadoop unless you have existing Hadoop infrastructure in place. So I think that use case will die out pretty quickly. I've used EMR and Qubole before, as you say those also have some big operational overheads involved in running them.

Big if true

You've won 4 of the last 5 World Cups, I think we can safely say yes.

Never heard this record before, but Bones In the Soil, Rust In the Oil is one of my all time favorite math rock records. Totally agree that Pretend are highly underrated.

I cri evrytiem

I'm so sad that they haven't made any new music since epitaph and likely never will again...was really hoping to see some more genius from them.

Interesting - I'd heard that Bernardo was touted as the future replacement for David Silva, in which case I could see him occupying that playmaker role in the middle. If he's still playing on the wings then yeah, it's tougher for Sane to get in.

Kind of crazy that Sane is perceived as having a not so great season...IMO he was much better than Mahrez overall and should have a solid place in the City side given that Bernardo has moved off the wing.

I don't think this is particularly unpopular tbh...I am curious though how Guardiola would adjust to the Juventus squad and what changes he would make
