I buy a Costco box of all spice and store them all over the place (bathroom, bedroom, my backpack, my wfh desk, gym bag, etc) I dont pay attention at all to the scent they all smell the same to me.

I have a professional advantage in being a windows power user. Only way of maintaining that is running windows at home. I do have several Linux systems too.

My mom is liberal enough, but my brother fell down the pipeline. He recently tried to convince my mom i was brainwashed to be a LGBTQ Muslim extremist by my wife (note, I am a man, and my wife is an ex-muslim whose sect is persecuted by Muslim extremists) and he made 51st state memes on canada day. I don’t really know what to do, I just try not to be alone with him.

I had ai write a python script for me that checked a directory for zip/rar files that don’t also have video files, unzip them and if it fails retry at a doubling interval. It would have taken me an hour or so, took the ai 5min+15min of me fixing it. I also had it add logging which is definitely something I wouldn’t have been arsed to add otherwise.

It isnt very helpful at my day job writing professional code though, and I dont think someone who didn’t already know how to do it themselves could make use of it.

Spending an entire loop with chert is a truly marvelous experience, going through the stages of grief together.

Although for an ambient time, catching the probe and watching

takes the cake for my favourite bit of ambiance

In highschool I was popular in the literal sense, that I was well liked by most. I was a nerd by the hollywood definition. Middleschool was hell

As a Canadian I would consider someone that doesn’t apologize to be a little rude, even if they have nothing to do with the event, but our definition of sorry is a bit different than other english speakers.

I have about 60TB of storage on my Media server that I use for plex (I would recommend jellyfin for new users, but I have a lifetime premium). Now I would never pirate but if I did there’s Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr and Jackett to make that all a click and go situation.

Where I live these have taken over and I’ve never seen a broken one

I genuinely don’t know I have never heard it

good budgeting takes away all the guilt in spending on wants. I look at my budget see if I have enough fun money to pay for it and get it if I do.

I say grow it out longer

I strongly recommend something screen off, either podcasts or audiobooks. I listen to an audiobook every night before bed with my wife with a sleep timer set.

If that’s too stimulating for your brain, choose a less cerebral book.

If something breaks I have to spend a beat to fight the urge to hide the evidence and then hide myself.

I agree with sentiment, but as stated that’s just eugenics with extra steps. By controlling the cost, availability and/or accessibility of the course, you control who can have children. Also how are you going to enforce this policy, forced abortions?

Better imo to make childrearing a part of the school curriculum with a highly encouraged refresher course later on. That achieves the same end without risking peoples liberties.

Comparing Python to c++ seems disingenuous, Python is not a replacement for c++, it should be compared to bash, PHP or maybe R. Don’t get mad that a hammer is not a good screwdriver.

I dont know what your thinking, pouring chai tea on an uninflammable atm machine is literally the worst thing ever, even on accident.

I think the question is ill defined. The answer is entirely dependent on the definitions you use and i don’t think answering the question really leads to a meaningfully different view of the world or has any real intellectual consequences.
