Picture two has stringers 1 and 2 and picture 3 is the third stringer. The grain lines up correct per picture 1.

The only people that are angry about that are the idiots and supporters to those idiots. Any rational person understands, and many of us support the decision with gumption.

Lawn darts aren’t dart board darts. Metal tipped darts are legal for dart boards.

Lawn darts are significantly larger, thrown up in the air, and were the cause of many injuries back in the day.

At least in Canada and the US, they are federally illegal to sell. There are safe versions out there now with balls for tips, but metal darts can’t be legally purchased anywhere.

I think what makes this worse is that their deficits are in the 10s of billions compared to most other startups being in the millions, even if the revenue to expenses ratio is better.

If I start a tech company and I spend 100 million dollars but only pull in 10 million in revenue, that’s not great having a 10:1 expense to revenue ratio and 90 million in debt. In the leaked openAI financials from earlier this year, it was something like 13 billion revenue to 33 billion expenses, or about 3:1 expenses to revenue, which certainly seems better. However, the magnitude in actual costs is so much bigger at that point and the risk so much higher for investors. A billionaire can stand to lose on a 90 mill dollar investment, but it hurts a lot more on a 10 billion dollar investment.

And also, what’s their path to profitablity? The premiere models are already expensive and getting more expensive. They’d have to charge significantly more to start breaking even, and people just won’t pay for that. The cost to continue building and maintaining new DCs is t going to lessen the expenses either. I just think at some point investors are going to realize they aren’t going to get an ROI on their investment and either cut back or drop out all together.

I don’t think that’s what’s being said. More like the complexities of the solution are taking a while to understand because it is a complex solution using complex math. Even the smartest people in their fields can’t always look at a solution and at a glance understand everything without truly digesting what they’re seeing.

Your rule 2 doesn’t say anything about common sense. It says 'One’s own sense of justice…". If someone’s sense of justice is in line with Code of Hammurabi, does that mean they get to go around and rape rapists, steal from thieves, or go vigilante style killings against murderers? And what about people that don’t line up with that? Who’s justice prevails?

I think this is my favorite song off the new album. I wasn’t paying attention to the lyrics on my first listen and legit thought it was a cover of a classic boy band song until the metal hits.

It’s just the way work has played out for us right now. A couple servers are being decommed at the end of the month, so it’s priority. I work on team of about 14 people and we use Azure dev ops for work items and sprint planning. The way we do it is once you finish a task, you grab the next available item in sprint rather than cherry picking. I’ve just been a bit unlucky in my timing. We do have some projects in the works that will be hitting us soon, and some new implementations, so I yea, it’s likely I’ll be writing actual code again in the near future.

The finger hands are my favorite.

I really enjoy programming, and i don’t mind all of the planning, mentorship, and working with stakeholders to formulate solutions. But for the past few weeks 90% of the work I’ve been doing had been around deployment, migrating services to new servers, and fucking with azure resources. I haven’t written a line of code for 3+ weeks. That has been draining.

Couple that with picking up work items that are poorly written with way to little information on what needs doing and it’s also frustrating as hell.

At my company, we have dozens, probably over one hundred different repos that we maintain, and no less than 30 actively worked on projects. It’s bitter sweet in that I get a good mix of work to break up the monotony of working on the same project, but at the cost of not being able to master any of them. I’ve only been in my role for 6-8 months coming from a non programming background, and it’s been tough to learn and keep up with the pace required. Being full stack is nice but shitty at the same time.

I think most of their music videos are pretty good, but I’ve always liked this one the most I think.

I was behind a van today at a red light with a sticker on the back window that says, #JusticeForCharlie. I too felt bad when his kidney was taken after going into Candy Mountain Cave, but I wouldn’t put a sticker on my car in support. Still, poor Charlie.

Sound like maybe the unleashed dog may have been in an area where that’s not allowed. If that’s the case, fuck the owner. People that ignore leash laws are entitled pricks.

It has literally never happened to me over the past decade short of rounding up for charity. Can they? Yes, it could be programmed in, but I’ve never experienced it.

I don’t like food hot enough to burn my mouth, but I definitely far prefer food that’s intended to be warm to be warm. I don’t hate cold food though and in times of pure laziness, I will eat straight from the fridge instead of heating it up and be fine. Something like a cheeseburger, there’s zero chance I’m eating one not at least warm, or like a fettuccine Alfredo where the sauce congeals after it’s chilled, hard pass.

I’m the opposite on coffee and tea. Definitely prefer both really warm, but not hot, I don’t like either cold, but I like cold coffee less than I like cold tea. I will finish them as a punishment for letting them get cold though.

I suppose if you prefer the way Republicans run the government more than Democrats, then yea vote for anyone but the Democrat candidate in the general.

In many cases, I am faster than the available cashiers at my local grocery store, because they’re old. Also depending on what I’m buying, idc how my stuff is bagged so I can just throw it in a single bag and go vs them taking 3 bags to do the same thing.

But to me, the main reason to use self checkout is that I don’t have to interact with anyone. No conversation, no upsells, just me and a machine. The only reason I’ll go to a cashier is if I have a lot of stuff or if I’m buying alcohol.
