- IIRC, in Neal Stephenson's README, the Septentrion Paladins carry swords to avoid getting hassled for firearms possession.
- I'm really looking forward to trying this out over Christmas break. Textualize is awesome for building Python console apps.
- Not according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aja_(album)#Title_and_packagin...

Until the companies start colluding to suppress your wages.
- The same thing happens to me in Claude occasionally. I have to tell it "Generate a tar.gz archive for me to download".
- And it's messing with our utilities in BC because we were buying the daytime oversupply in California and selling the hydro generated power back at night. They've had to adjust plans as battery storage comes online.
- Just because your brother's union sucks, doesn't mean they all do.
- For some reason, I never buy phones that work with postmarketOS :( And I find phone naming confusing, it's difficult to find a used one locally to play with. Is it a Moto Play 2018 or a Play 2020? Trying to get that information from someone on Facebook marketplace is like pulling teeth.
- Humans bred out this ability in French Bulldogs :(
- Haven't they turned the feature off again already? (I don't have a twitter account, so I can't check)
- You're today's lucky 10,000!
- Caterpillar provides some really neat small scale flywheel UPS - used in places like hospitals where it would be very bad to lose power. They last long enough for the diesel gennies to start up.
- It's also highly dependent on how soft your water is. The people complaining about performance probably have hard water. Do you ever have to descale your kettle / coffee maker?
- Do you have any examples of this? I'd love to point this out to my local government.
- Bebop To The Boolean Boogie might be useful for you - it's kind of a kids book but the concepts are all well done.
- Canada and Mexico too thanks to CUSMA.
- George Boole might have some opinions on this.
- I have PTSD from learning Smith charts in school.
My prof even said to me "If you'd pay attention, you'd understand this!". I was the only one who was brave enough to ask questions about it!
- I don't know exactly how it works, but I do know that my phone thought it was in Australia after connecting to my Starlink terminal here in BC.
- I'd love to see more people on the air. My advice is to get a radio with a good tuner, build a simple dipole with the online calculators, and try to make contacts that way.
- Thunderbird
- Wouldn't you be able to pedal at your most efficient rate, and go at whatever speed you want? Like how diesel-electric trains don't actually drive the wheels with the diesel engine, they power an electric motor.
(I've never ridden any kind of e-bike so I don't really know how it works)
- `tar xf` autodetects compressed files now. You can replace any of your instances of tar with that.
- Reminds me of the time I set up tcpdump to log network traffic on a troublesome server. To save disk space I sent it over SSH to my laptop. Oops!
- Wild to see the different experiences here. I haven't worked for a company that uses Outlook in 20+ years.
Recently it's all been gmail/google workspaces.
- FWIW it's a very challenging job market right now. It took me 7 months to land a job, and I know other people are struggling even longer than that.
Networking seems to be the only way to get past the HR filters.
- I spend an hour in a field with my golden doodle, refusing to chase her. She had to bring the ball back to me and drop it. I threw the ball twice in that hour. The rest of the time she spent running past me trying to coax me into chasing her.
The least food motivated dog I've ever owned. Nothing brought her back, not even cheese.
Have fun turkey99!
- The author was the Concept Engineer on the Miata, so it seems like he took all of the lessons and applied them well.
DYK Miata is a recursive acronym? It stands for: Miata Is Always The Answer.
- A common practice at my grandma's care home was if the women's personalities changed suddenly, get them on cranberry juice in case it was a UTI.
- fall asleep at 9:31 and function on 7 hours of sleep
- or fall asleep at 10:30 and function on 6 hours of sleep
If I'm not getting 8 hours, I feel like a zombie the next morning.
