I never get these things where people are like “ah ha, we outsmarted the company by using an undocumented* feature they provide!” But like, they control the feature and they know it exists, you’re not getting away with something.
* or sometimes even documented
Except that’s not what “backed by” means. It consumes energy. You can never exchange cryptocurrency to get the energy that it consumed back.
But trust me on the sunscreen.
For me it was growing up with religious fanatic parents who taught us to interpret the “wrong” emotions as moral failings.
I don’t know where you’re at in your life. Maybe you do need to learn to control your emotions more. But also consider learning to accept your emotions, learn what they are telling you, and find a healthy way to process them.
And if you have people in your life who can’t deal with you having emotions, you may need to evaluate that as well.
I’ve long said that Arnold is my favorite Republican. It’s a low, low, bar, but still…
I write self documenting code, as long as you are a Python interpreter.
We talk to each other like Giwaffe & Cwow (https://youtu.be/8_Dm5xkHzio). Sometimes we’ll quote things from the skit, but a lot of times we’ll just say normal stuff in that voice to be cute.
I don’t remember the details but there was an Internet story about a dude who’d say “man up” and people explained why that was a problem and he updated to “fortify”. And I really like that, because it kinda suggests also getting help where you need it to build up your defenses in order to face the thing you need to face.
A few months ago I was doing dishes and for some reason thought about my age and I literally couldn’t remember if I’d hit 50 yet. Had to do the math to remember I’m 45 and that’s quite a ways off. That’s an outlier for sure, but yeah I forget.
It just doesn’t come up often. There are fewer ands fewer markers. Before your 20s you’ve got hitting double digits, becoming a teenager, sweet 16, becoming an “adult”, then not being a teenager any more. In your 20s you’ve got becoming an adult again (and maybe being able to drink if 21 is your drinking age), and then maybe saving money on insurance at 25 if that even matters to you. Then nothing. You might demarcate 30, but nothing really changes. In many senses now it’s “just a number” and the individual increments fail to matter. There’s no differential reinforcement to remembering where you are on the number line.
Can AI (whatever you personally are an expert in) do better than the real thing?
We are all Elon on this blessed day.
I don’t remember that very well, I just remember it describing the scientific method. I probably need to reread that.
Really? I wasn’t sure which one I “should” use so I looked at a cable that I had laying around (probably came with a cable modem or something?) and was able to see the wire colors through the connector and it was A. So that’s what I’ve been using when making patch cables or wiring my house.
I guess my question is what’s your experience with where B is used? Mostly I’m just curious, it probably doesn’t really matter for me since I only do networking work in my house.
Also, the 2032 numbering indicates its physical size: it’s 20mm x 3.2mm. There are for example 2025’s (like in my car remote) that are 20mm x 2.5mm.
And CMOS refers to what the battery was powering on the motherboard (a small amount of CMOS static RAM) rather than anything about the battery itself. I don’t know if motherboards still use any static RAM, the batteries might only be there to power the clock these days, making the name just a historical convention.
I dunno about everything, but my car has a talk button on the steering wheel, I think you press it to answer the phone or whatever, but when Android Auto is active, that button works the same as saying “OK Google”. I would imagine it does something similar with CarPlay. Maybe you have a similar button?
Adding to the chorus of older folks telling you do it. I’m 45 and currently in braces, for nearly two years now (about to get them off). As far as I can tell, not a single person has reacted negatively to them in any way.
L*******y, or the L-word.
Man, I read these comments and I can relate to so many of them. But honestly, this year, nothing. We’ve recently moved to an area that’s more healthy for our family. I have a partner who’s not abusive. My kids and myself are getting the mental healthcare that we need. It’s snowy outside! We have a Christmas tree and presents! It was not amazing; there was nothing over the top or spectacular. But there was nothing bad. Damn, that feels nice.
Honestly you wrote your post on a fairly polarizing way. If you wanted calmer discourse around the strange idea, you could have gone with something like “What are your thoughts about this?” instead of “Doesn’t that seem rather fucked up?”
Edit: also maybe be less combative in your comments, but I’m starting to recognize that this complaint was not made in good faith.
Are you saying id-gaff or I-D-G-A-F?
