It’s not an acronym, “acme” is a word! It means “the best” and it’s why it became a generic company name in those old cartoons.06 Sep 2026 00:17 +0000at://did:plc:gvhdoufrb35lkdqq2d32ftbd/app.bsky.feed.post/3muspqss4cs2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/slye.bsky.social/post/3muoecfqklc2fI’ve lived near San Francisco for my entire life, so I’m glad to see the map basically got it right.04 Sep 2026 06:41 +0000at://did:plc:gvhdoufrb35lkdqq2d32ftbd/app.bsky.feed.post/3muoecfqklc2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/slye.bsky.social/post/3munnze544c2dNick Sherman has written a very nice review of Rich Kegler’s movie about Jim Rimmer.

Seems unhealthy.

I understood it to mean that “fewer early heartbeats” is a “pattern” that’s bad. But apparently “early heartbeats” is the bad thing, so fewer is good.
