One word: debiggenify

My house had the cheapest garbage disposal which I quickly broke. When I went to replace it, I found that replacing them is incredibly easy and the mid-tier model (about $120) said it could handle small beef bones and peach pits. I’ve been very happy with that, and all my food waste goes in. I don’t have a lot of room for compost, but the city purports to be generating electricity from the sewage, so I hope it isn’t wasted. It also means that my trash doesn’t smell, which is nice.

One serving of peanut butter

Every day in standup

You coud try eating the pellicle from a batch of kombucha.

I’ve been each of these at some point.

This was not a case of “I agree with you, but…”, though. “But” is perfectly appropriate here to contrast between the first statement and the second.

Perlence subrange 6-36 is good too

The trial and error is important, so you might end up buying a bunch anyway

Shit, I never thought that might be why, but we’ve dealt with a lot of skin irritation, and our kid prefers keeping a dirty diaper over getting changed. My day is ruined.

Hmm… I admit I didn’t follow the video and who was speaking very well and didn’t notice hostility that others seem to pick up on. I’ve worked with plenty of people who turn childish when a technical discussion doesn’t go their way, and I’ve had the luxury of mostly ignoring them, I guess.

It sounded like he was asking for deeper specification than others were willing or able to provide. That’s a constant stalemate in software development. He’s right to push for better specs, but if there aren’t any then they have to work with what they’ve got.

My first response here was responding to the direct comparison of languages, which is kind of apples and oranges in this context, and I guess the languages involved aren’t even really the issue.

I think most people would agree with you, but that isn’t really the issue. Rather the question is where the threshold for rewriting in Rust vs maintaining in C lies. Rewriting in any language is costly and error-prone, so at what point do the benefits outweigh that cost and risk? For a legacy, battle-tested codebase (possibly one of the most widely tested codebases out there), the benefit is probably on the lower side.

Someone is lying

As a combination back- and side-sleeper, I’ve been considering trying to strap foam blocks to the side of my head so I can always get the right amount of support regardless of position.

I don’t think that’s how phantom limbs work.

I got super sick from this. It probably didn’t help that I was trying soothe my upset stomach with more peanut butter.

Does the gender of all non-self-containing genders contain itself? This is the fundamental question of gender theory.

im multisexual which means i like multiple sex
