  • I wouldn’t do version control that way, but I’ve used Word to keep track of what I’m working on during integration tasks. It’s nice because you can drop in code, error messages, and screen captures. E.g.: the tool looks like this: (image) but gives an error like this: (error message) and I think the problem is in file.py around lines XYZ: (code snippet) when I run the command (command used), and I think the answer is in (a couple links I found).


  • hmmm you may have a point. I guess I was thinking of barbarian in terms of:

    People of towns and cities take pride in their settled ways, as if denying one’s connection to nature were a mark of superiority. To a barbarian, though, a settled life is no virtue, but a sign of weakness. The strong embrace nature—valuing keen instincts, primal physicality, and ferocious rage. Barbarians are uncomfortable when hedged in by walls and crowds. They thrive in the wilds of their homelands: the tundra, jungle, or grasslands where their tribes live and hunt.

    In the context of embracing nature and thriving in the wilds, it seems like a barbarian would have more cause to use their teeth.

    But imagine a barbarian bit a DM, and then some guy who hit the gym a lot and could lift as much as the barbarian bit an identical DM. I maintain that the barbarian would do more damage, due to a lifetime of e.g. breaking bones with their mouth, gnawing the bark off a tree, etc.







  • Spendthrift! Who’s going to pay for all those trucks and blenders? We’ll just jettison the bodies out of the lifepods and let the Desert Crabs eat them. We’ll call it part of our “green” initiative. Of course we’ll still keep the body transportation charges, and tack on a convenience fee. THINK OF THE SHAREHOLDERS!!!







  • my details … which I may have to recount for them.

    That part isn’t so bad. You should have a set of work stories about how awesome you are, that you make sure to tell them. (i.e. the project you single-handedly saved, the problem coworker you were able to get along with, the impossible deadline you met, etc.) Then it’s just a matter of figuring out which story to start off with, and ideally it turns into a conversation. “We were using XYZ system on ABC machines, you do that here too?” “Oh yeah that system sucks, one time…” etc.


  • A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger. He fled, the tiger after him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself down over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him.

    Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!
