I’m gonna take a guess that a big portion of it is infrastructure-as-code, the operations side and not product development itself. I work in the operations side of things and we never touch the product at all, but we deal with a lot of code due to how backend infrastructure is built and maintained now, especially if you're in the cloud.

So it was either a lapse with the ATC or the driver of the firetruck didn’t have clearance to cross.

That's definitely one square piece, because using the entire package with less than 3 cups of water will definitely be too much.

Smile, stare at the cake, and lightly bob your head to the song. If you don't feel awkward with eye contact, then you can glance around the room and look at everyone.

The back of the box should have some info on the number of squares needed by proportion. Match it up with the serving size of the recipe you’re following.

On a related topic, does anyone know why upper management people exclusively do not use greetings (hi, hello, etc.) on their emails? Yes, there are rank-and-file people who do that too, but I notice 99% people in leadership positions write emails like text messages. Maybe because they’re on their phones most of the time and/or use speech-to-text? But I know a lot of them who do this even on their laptops. I dunno, it just gives this air of superiority complex to me.

There's a special place in hell for people who ruin a book for a meme.

Same with wasting food.

Knowing what they are saying to each other (which is all that encryption prevents) is often less important.

I don’t think I agree with this one. For most people’s use-cases, privacy is more important than anonymity. Like, I don’t care that you know I’m chatting with my wife, I just don’t want you to be able to read it. And Signal provides that service. Obviously for specific cases like whistleblowers, anonymity might be more important (it’s both actually).

It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.

That looks amazing.

I donate to Signal from time to time.

 

Hey all. I'm looking into getting a small action cam type of camera. Primary purpose would be for travel and recording music playthrough videos at home. My wife would like something small and discreet that she can use to take short videos while traveling, but not make her look like an obnoxious vlogger. At the same time I'd like to use it in my home studio to make videos. Doesn't have to be 4k, 1080p would be fine if it doesn't meet the budget limit. I'm looking into something less than $200.

Anyone have suggestions?

 

No nuance and characters are saying the obvious stuff, because viewers are looking at another device while watching. We’re so cooked.

Just discovered these guys recently. My favorite thing about this is the bassist using a lefty bass and playing it right handed. lol

 
 

No official thread yet so I’m creating one.

It’s the start of the 2025 season!

 
 

Anyone else watching HBO's Task? What do you think?

I started watching last week and finally caught up with the latest episode (ep 5). I personally like it. There is only one plothole I'm annoyed about, but I think overall it is executed well. Acting is also great.

 

The Spurs are streaming their open scrimmage for free right now. Most of the players are playing, including Wemby.
