I’ve heard a carwash will take them out.

Obviously you need to consider how much ravioli you’re making when choosing which ravioli pot to take down from your ravioli pot shelf.

Damn these AIs are getting good at understanding exactly what I want.

The trick for clocks in a lot of cars is you need to turn off the radio to do it. Many of the buttons are dual use they will change settings on the radio if it’s on.

Bumble bees are actually inspiring wing designs now. For a long time our best theories on aerodynamics couldn’t explain how Bumblebees could fly. Given the relative mass and wing size the bumble bee they couldn’t explain how a bumble bee could fly.

In the last decade or so they figured it out after putting enough bumble bees into wind tunnels. Bumblebees generate additional lift by creating little vortexes in the air. So now wing designers are trying to incorporate that effect into their designs.

One time a VP decided to jump in and be a developer and he just pointed a bunch of cards when the dev that was really going to do the work was off for the day. Obviously the points were way too low, so I just padded out the rest of the cards knowing the 7 points on the cards the VP pointed was going to be the entire two week sprint for the other dev and I’d need to to whatever else was put into the sprint.

And that’s how I found out the Product Manager was putting the points into a spreadsheet to track how many points each individual dev was doing. He was actually upset at me for doing 20 points in the sprint. Sure, I padded them out, but why wasn’t he bothered by the cards that had too few points on them? Just upset his spreadsheet was screwed up, but couldn’t be angry at the VP that under-pointed a bunch of cards.

If the goal is to not have apps be too large, you probably don’t want to send the full variable and function names and all of the comments over the wire every time someone loads a webpage. That would be a very inefficient use of bandwidth, wouldn’t it?

It’s been done before with things like the Better Business Bureau.

These kinds of initiatives tend to start taking money from businesses so they get a better rating and oftentimes end up as basically an extortion racket. Though sometimes they’re just straight up bought out by big corporation and suddenly that corporation and it’s business partners get great scores.

Avoiding 403 seems like a security through obscurity approach to me.

I suppose there might be some special admin only endpoints you’d want to 404 on if the user is not an admin. But for most cases it’s really hell integrating an API that 404s on everything… is my token invalid, did I set a parameter wrong, or did I get the path wrong? I guess I gotta spend all day doing trial and error to figure it out. Fun!

Also makes integration tests on your security unreliable. Someone renames an endpoint and suddenly your integration tests aren’t actually testing security anymore. Checking for 403 and getting a 404 because someone renamed something will indicate the test needs to be updated to use the new path. Checking for 404 (because the user isn’t supposed to have access) and getting 404 (because the path was changed) means your test is useless but you won’t know it was rendered useless.

Human drivers also make automobiles one of the most dangerous ways to travel.

Same goes for Teslas. Just that the human that’s making them a dangerous way to travel is Elon Musk.

Yeah they cast a lot of guys like Peter Graves and Robert Stack that normally appeared in the over-serious thriller type movies. So Leslie Nielsen was just one of that group of actors they cast to have guys deliver silly lines in that stern serious tone that they did in actual serious movies.

But of course Leslie Nielsen was amazing at it, and didn’t need to do those over-serious movies anymore. And don’t call me Shirley!

And then they made Blofeld to be James Bond’s brother which was never a thing in any Bond movie before. That was just a thing they did in Austin Powers.

Dr. Strangelove was released before Fail Safe. The story goes that they were both being filmed around the same time and Kubrick used his pull with the studio to make sure Fail Safe was released later in the year.

Seems a really odd thing to insist your parody is released before the movie it’s parodying. And I don’t think there were all that many movies about the terror of nuclear war until after the Cuban missile crisis. It takes a couple of years to make a movie and Dr. Strangelove came out less than two years after the Cuban Missile Crisis, so it was pretty much the first of it’s kind.

Seems to me like Dr. Strangelove is a black comedy, not a parody.

Not only boycotts, it’ll also be a prime target for retaliatory tariffs. So for even those that don’t care about the boycott, a Roomba will cost at least 25% more than the equivalent robot vacuum made in Korea.

Quit your job.

Though this solution will cause other problems, you probably won’t care about how many hours are left in the weekend anymore.

I’m not a law talking guy, but from my understanding of it, downloading isn’t illegal. But if you’re torrenting it, you’re uploading bits of it to others while you’re downloading. That would be distributing it to others, so that’s copyright infringement.

So if you could find a way to download something without uploading anything, you’d be fine. Kinda like if someone uploads copyright infringing material to youtube. You’re not going to get into hot water for watching that video, but the person who uploaded is.

Well there was the episode where he started wearing a MAGA hat… but not because he supported the politics, he just wanted to be ostracized by everyone.

This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs

Ok, so you say the donors are not all left, so why would a politically diverse set of donors result in Mozilla having “lefties-only” hiring practices? Reading comprehension requires some critical thinking.

It seems Brendan Eich doesn’t understand that it’s a politcal diverse group that donated to Mozilla (as you do), given the next sentence. Someone with strong reading comprehension would understand logic of, but I’ll explain it to you. His statement is saying that Mozilla became a politically biased organization because of influence from those that donated to it.

Though your strong reading comprehension may have resulted in you having a different interpretation of “lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply” to mean… well maybe explain what that means to us poor illiterate people that don’t possess your intellectual prowess, LOL.

Also do you care to comment on your interpretation on the “glowies” remark? What does that word mean to you? What is Brendan Eich saying there? Something you agree with I guess.

Not gonna lose a lot of sleep over a hateful asshole getting banned from a website.

All hateful assholes believe their brand of hate is justified, just as you do.

Well you already said I’m welcome, but thank you anyway.
