I mentioned to that guy that he MIGHT want to turn his lights off or there would be kids all night, but walking past at the end of our evening, all his lights were on still.

I think this is definitely part of it. When I was a kid, lights == giving out candy. Now, tonight, I had multiple trick-or-treaters almost go by my house before they noticed I was sitting outside with a bowl, despite the lights and decorations.

Don’t! Be evil!

One of the three carriers in Canada is about to do away with prepaid entirely in December. That said, I have a pretty affordable monthly plan and I buy my phones outright.

Got it, pump sulfur into the atmosphere to stop climate change.

Doesn’t look like it, unfortunately. But it’s planned. Kotlin can also compile to JavaScript with DOM manipulation. I’ve not tried either scenario, myself.

It’s in alpha, but there is a Kotlin to wasm compiler in the works.

No, they hire a lot of temporary foreign workers from India.

That’s what Tim Hortons did in Canada!

ISO 8601 only, please.

Java/Kotlin and JavaScript/Typescript primarily now. I used to know Visual Basic, PHP, C/C++, and COBOL; but I haven’t touched any of them in almost 20 years now.

“Dad enters the room.”

It also had a great soundtrack!

Thanks! I knew I recognized it but not from where.

Haha, hire developers? No, no, no. Doesn’t off-the-shelf software just work? /s

Haha, no, cause then I’d be paid more.

And then the logging shows that nobody uses half the fields, but the business won’t let you remove any.

Oh no, my company is going to integrate with Service Now! Should I be scared?
