Lmao a $100 amazon brand electric jacket? It will get you very warm, but only once.

If you get pardoned but the pardon got repealed, is that a pardoff?

In a perfect world you could get paid to automate stuff with AHK. I wonder if you could market yourself as an AHK consultant where you basically shadow someone’s job for a week and then start figuring out how to automate the tedious stuff.

Personally I like the functionality of AHK but I can’t stand the syntax compared to Python and C. I start with such great plans of what I want to automate but get sick of fighting with the language after about an hour and settle for something simple.

And you can continue typing it that way for as long as you want if you set up autohotkey to automatically fix your typos.

Nice, that’s handy. I use prusa but there are so many options that it’s hard to know what’s available.

What’s a good way to pause during prints? Is there an easy way to stop at a certain y level and move the nozzle out of the way, then resume the print when you are done? Or do you just manually do it?

Same.

There’s easily 4 gallons of fluid in the torso and maybe another gallon in each of the arms (eyeballing from years of camelbak ownership). Being lazy and not looking up the weight of beer, water weighs 8.8 lb per gallon. So at least 50 pounds of fluid. He’s working off his beer belly just walking around with that. We’re looking at the next exercise revolution.

It’s basically like you check out the destination branch and cherry pick your changes on top of it.

I don’t know if there is a functional difference between a merge and a rebase assuming your git history is reasonable, but rebasing makes the history so much easier to follow. Every commit only has a single ancestor, commits are generally better structured because devs where I work tend to squash and rebase.

Portland OR is 118 on that list? I assume you’re not talking about Portland ME.

The obvious solution is to use Rust’s upcoming “spaghetti checker” feature. Once the compiler decides that your code is too messy to be maintainable, it refuses to compile.

Taking on one extra dog for a few days seems like the easiest, most chill way to make a little money on the side if you are careful about which dogs you take. Those people who sit 4+ dogs at a time are insane but must pull in a good bit of money.

If someone else has to debug the problems caused by a parent naming their child with a special character, does that make the parent the bugger? 🤔

Did you get a huge flood of emails at the start? That happened to me one time and it was because one of my old passwords got leaked. Buried within the flood of emails was a legit “your password has been changed” email for an account.

I assume your project wasn’t based on ChatGPT? It feels like a lot of the AI hate is directed at ChatGPT and its current hype wave.

+1 for sleeping without an alarm. If you really need an alarm to get up every day, you might not be getting enough sleep to begin with. Some of that is unavoidable (noises, light waking you up at night etc.) but a lot of people think they can get by with like 6 hours or less of sleep and just get by on extra coffee.

Taking a week or so to just let your body wake up when it wants (even if it means going to bed early, ugh) will help you figure out how much sleep you need.

I remember hearing somewhere (probably some podcast) that it used to be normal for people to sleep for 3-4 hours, then wake up and do stuff for an hour or so, then go back to sleep for 3-4 hours again. Maybe to help keep watch while you sleep or something similar?

It’s about 50/50 for me. Sometimes getting up and reading for an hour or so will let me fall back to sleep instantly, other times I’m just wide awake at 2AM and then magically get sleepy at 6:30 right before work.

Ok you might be a little crazy for using vim in 2024 :D but it depends on the context. Editing a quick config file from command line? Sure. Working on a big project? No way, give me an IDE with real navigation and auto complete functionality.

I think part of the reason is just that the barrier to entry for software development continues to drop with IDEs, dependency/package managers, etc. It’s really easy to get a working knowledge of your tools without knowing how they really work under the hood, which is good and bad.

GitHub is many things nowadays. Some people use it sort of like a blog where they can easily post long pages of text, sometimes it’s the first thing that shows up in the search results when you search for a computer/phone problem.

I’m gonna sound old here but the younger generations are in general less computer literate than they were back in my day, and a lot of people have no qualms about downloading and running random exe’s from discord or mediafire.

Same here. At some point I’ll have to try it out with a game that I don’t mind losing progress on. It sounded like you have to manually specify one or more save directories to get sync to work which sounds pretty flimsy to me.

Gog has cloud saves too if you use gog galaxy.
