I enjoyed drag as well

Took me way too long trying to figure out how that has anything to do with the topic at hand.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen Drag. I wonder if Drag is okay.

It’s bad practice to dangle your participles; in between or anywhere else.

If it fails the second time, that’s reproducibility.

If it fails randomly then starts working again the next day without any changes, that’s when you get yourself a headache. And it took someone’s wife, a year later, to figure out the failures only happen on Tuesdays.

The more you move through the networking stack, the more you start seeing OB1 error potentials.

Many protocols have packet ids starting from (and wrapping back to) 1. Modbus registers start from 1, but stored in memory offset 0.

Packet lengths can either include or exclude the length itself. E.g. packet length 200 in a protocol could either mean the length is followed by 200 bytes of data; or 1 byte containing the length + 199 data; or even 4 bytes length + 196 data (off by four!)

It’s a wild world out there.

Looks more like a panTerabyte

We’ve been writing slop long before the slopmachines were a thing. Where do people think corpospeak came from?

‘Focus Features’ is the indie distributor responsible for the movie. They are ‘mounting’ a campaign to get the movie nominated in every possible category (‘full awards push’)

They mentioned “scheduled” and “emergency” in the same sentence. Their doublespeak game is strong.

It has to if you want federated servers. You spin up a server, it needs to know everything it subscribes to.

There is no solution, because it is not a problem. That’s just the nature of a federated system.

If I walk in the park, I risk people taking pictures of me. That’s the thing about parks, they’re public open spaces. The only solution is to stay home.

The og Razr was truly a masterpiece. Sitting on a table, it’s vibrations could wake the whole house.

Does that not make them a hard link (pointing to a filesystem node) instead of a symlink (pointing to another filename)?

I mentally double check

So you’re saying you… mentally challenged yourself?

As “we” write more software slop

It’s that the one better or worse than the Explorer One S?

Gemini is complete garbage in Android Auto

It also can’t read labels on gmaps. Can’t read people’s “nickname” field in contacts (there are so many Roberts). And can’t access or write notes without also requiring access to my emails (hell no).

Those are the three things I use AA for, and it’s objectively worse at every single one of them.

Also, guess which middle eastern country regularly sends their officers to train the Singaporean military? Hint: it’s not Palestine

elements of the natural world in a symbolic manner

What about elements of HTML? It also has symbols.

The current legacy code I’m dealing with is full of these:

// TODO: Class description here to satisfy linter

I think you’re projecting a little. People act like this no matter the field. We swim in the tech pool, so we mostly only see the shit floating in our pool.

I can assure you the neighbour’s pool also has their fair share of floaters.

We Aussies just sorta mumble to each other,
'oygarn?
nbadyou?
eh… *shrugs

Anything more than two syllables are not worth saying.
