You’re just as popular outside your echo chamber I see.

He’s a mod for a dying conservative community, he does this ALL the time.

The swamp was the GOP’s money? Drain it! All of it! Give the extra to him, I don’t care.

I really feel for the engineers and devs who don’t get to see their project released into the world. Especially after so much effort.

And the “nothing” it sounds like you’d vote for wouldn’t even punish the father! You’d rather have a kid die for nothing? Or would you rather we took the gun away? Are you saying that the only thing that actually works? Then we might agree on something.

Coming this Fall: Apple Dryness Pellets! A bag of Styrofoam rice that’ll run you $499.99 and an extra $70 for it to come in colors. Not compatible with CE models.

Light switches are a bad example. Up doesn’t mean on and down doesn’t mean off when you have multiple switches for the same thing.

These switches visibly have 2 states and switching it means you want the other one. In tech it’s less obvious that there are only two states and that toggling the button will do something in particular. Recall the play and pause button on your media app. That button could change the state in any number of ways but in order to convey to the user what will happen BEFORE the button is pressed, the player shows what action will take place.

You’re already in the current state, that rarely adds info. Toggles should indicate what they will do.

What about processes that terminate before writing the whole thing? You can’t protect against everything. Blame other processes all you want but the language spec allows for confusion.

TOML and YAML both have the problem that if you receive an incomplete document, there’s a decent chance you can’t tell. JSON doesn’t have that because of the closing curly.

I’m never going into a hospital without a mask again. It’s just common sense.

I wonder why “Play” is written in English but “Store” is katakana.

Mine and my roommate’s Hyundais were stolen. His was stolen by a child. We know this because the high schooler that stole my roommate’s car kept parking it randomly around the neighborhood because he obviously couldn’t bring it home to his parents and parked the car directly in front of our house (he stole it from a train stop so didn’t know). We caught the kid when he came back for it. The kid was 16.

Mine was stolen and then used in 3+ more hijackings involving a gun according to the FBI agent assigned to my case.

Still never buying a Hyundai or Kia ever again.

The only difference is I bet Bill Gates will taste better. Elon is obviously too stressed out and that ruins the meat.

That was the one and only prompt I gave it in that chat. New bard sucks as bad as old bard.

After it was supposedly updated to support helping with code, I asked bard about how to access password protected zips in Go and it made up libraries and gave me a very simple non-functioning example. When asked to describe Octopath Traveler 2, it invented a new main character and setting that isn’t in the game or its predecessor or the mobile game. I don’t have a lot of faith that Gemini will be better.

I’d rather not be shot: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-calls-supporters-guard-vote-democratic-run-us-cities-2023-12-03/

Colorado’s ballot tracking helps me feel at ease.

This was a hit job and news outlets are trying to pretend it’s an accident.
