I’m in this video and I don’t like it…

The point of those stickers isn’t to ask for kindness. It’s to let you know shit can happen on board and you may start driving like an idiot. Better stay a bit back so you have time to react.

The Authority actually tackled that.

Fellatio ad hominem fallacy!

Be aware that bytes exist for a start, I reckon.

Risky search of the day, pfew!

Never fell asleep with rando around.
Was a strict rule I had because I had seen asshole classmates do the marker thing once and decided that would not happen to me.
Very few times I did let my guard down was with actual friends, and because it was decided I was gonna crash there. Otherwise I’d just power through the night.

Was great training for becoming a dad!

Man, I can’t wait to try out generative AI to generate config files for mission critical stuff! Imagine paying all of us devops wankers when my idiot boss can just ask Chat GPT to sort all this legacy mess we’re juggling with on the daily!

Genius!

It literally means “to apply”, funnily.
But of course the majority of Chinese people are not English speakers, so they see “app” but can’t know it’s the same meaning.

I might be biased from speaking with so many Chinese people. Who I can forgive not knowing the origin of the abbreviation. Still pisses me off to no end D:<

What I hate even more, is that the morons who can’t read more than two syllables decided to shorten “application” to “app”, but now I only ever hear people reading that as “ay pee pee”! What was the fucking point?

Now you gonna tell me old man Yu didn’t have his family raze down that mountain?

Oh hey! That’s me for the last two years! Again!

I wish I had some hippocratic style oath I could lean on to not release unsafe, unoptimised, barely tested, possibly maintainable code.
Alas all I have is good, verbose comments and an email here or there expressing my concerns.

Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.

That’s just a layout. Let’s not confuse presentation with content.

That would work better if Latin wasn’t there before English. Mars Victor!

Look up a good article on coding fonts and pick your camp! At the moment I have DejaVu installed but I’m not a purist. As long as it’s properly designed for this I’m happy. Ligatures are particularly nifty in some languages but no big deal. I recall one author picking a font so that the italics would be cursive rather than monospace, so that his comments would look like handwritten notes in the margin, but I never got a chance to try it myself. Looked great though!

Haha, very true! But I’m not a Buddhist. It’s a gift from one of my former colleagues in China who gave it to me as a good luck charm.
