When I was a kid I remember copying entire games in BASIC printed in popular science magazines. They never worked because my dads computer had a slightly different BASIC dialect.

Good times.

Look at how shitty our implementation is. We need a full refactoring.

In my time we didn’t paste LLM-generated code we barely understand and hoped it compiled, let alone work. We pasted code from stack overflow we barely understood and hoped it compiled and let alone work, as god intended.

Unless you go once near a beach and a single grain of sand gets past the airtight bag the phone was in and the Totally-IP67-We-Swear phone chassis and is fucking destroys the screen from the inside, with a repair bill worthy of a new phone because “that kind of damage is not under warranty”.

That’s what I love about my ‘23 Yaris. The entertainment system is basically a radio and hybrid telemetry. Everything else is CarPlay/Android Auto. No shitty outdated maps, no 90’-style MP3 player…

gestures!

Still the reason that 20+ years later the second thing I install on any browser is a gestures extension (the first one is always uBlock Origin, obviously).

Nice ❤️

I’m guessing Portugal?

Our wedding was under 5k, excluding dress and suit. Immediate family and close friends only, less than 40 people. Major expenses were the photographer, food and booze. We rented a cheap, small place in the countryside, we planned and did everything else ourselves, having a kanban board in the kitchen for a year was fun! My wife even did the cakes herself because she’s an amazing amateur pastry chef. No DJ, but I spent months on and off curating a playlist with a good flow and steadily increasing intensity.

It was the perfect wedding. Huge amount of work but 100% worth it.

~~Makes sense, I think most users I’ve seen are french speakers. Which org? ~~

Edit: nvm I found them, it’s Les Soulèvements de la Terre. Thank you!

“To be” being highly irregular il a common feature of a lot of Indo-European languages. But there’s worse. In Spanish, “ser” and “estar” both mean “to be”, but have wildly different meanings and cannot be substituted for one another.

Happens to everything that becomes a commodity.

But Model Ms and Model Fs are still in production, and the MK ecosystem has never been so vibrant

You and me brother.

Which machine did you choose? I went for the Lelit Bianca, never regretted it.

Same. Old DB2 base from the 80’s that was migrated to Oracle in the 90’s then to Postgres in the 2010’s.

And the people there know all the column names by heart 😅

Yeah there’s no confusion in French because “étage” literally means “floor above ground”, so calling the ground floor an “étage” makes no sense. It’s called “rez-de-chaussée” (“at street level”) or RDC for short. Same as “sous-sol” (“under-ground”).

A legitimate salvage

There are people who consume flavored crystal DHMO recreationally. Children even!

Exactly the same!

I still admire and am super thankful to @ruud for all the time, effort and money he and his friends are pouring into trying to optimize world.

Burn, probably not. After all we can dip our hands in hot water for hours and feel fine. Bloodflow would take away a large part of this heat.

If you were to dip yourself in such a liquid, you would probably risk hyperthermia really quick though.
