Agreed on the feather blades, they make some awesome razors.

I tend to prefer Hiroshima sort. Sorting completed in O(1) time, and it frees up memory too.

Not OP but had a thought reading your comment. I wonder how much of this perceived shift in language is driven by corpo’s sanitizing for advertisers and how much is young people who have been fully raised online.

As you say, humans are social animals. It makes sense to me then, that if you were raised within an online environment you would naturally extend that sociability to it. However, if much of this technology grow after you were socialized would you be more inclined to see it as a relief valve to vent anger into.

Pretty sure its a natural gas powered water heater, so that would be the gas supply line. As to the incandesance, no clue.

If its some rando at the park spraying liquids of unknown origin on strangers, maybe calling the cops is reasonable. Calling the cops on a neighbour at a party for spraying you accidentally while following a child, overreaction. I hope they have any more parties and specifically ban that jerk neighbour’s who called the cops.

Young Men have largely been abandoned.

There are many reasons for this, but it still hurts when you need help and kindly get told to get lost because we don’t have supports for men and boys.

To be fair, I did have a watch that automatically synced itself to the us naval observatories atomic clocks over the air.

That it damn well is. Those rules are written in blood. I’m sad to say I knew people that didn’t follow the rules at place that didn’t care. May they rest in peace.

I’d go as far as Windows 2000. This new XP crap is too shiny, and why did they hide the controls?

You can volunteer yo not pay taxes. Move to some place without and renounce your citizenship. If I recall correctly Saudi Arabia doesn’t have a great deal of personal taxes.

They also fail to mention that the cost of materials today is wildly lower making larger homes easier to achieve. Not to also mention advances in building techniques.

And then promptly leave early because it waits and ‘corrects’ time at a different random stop in the middle of no where? That happens a lot here.

Properly sharp knives are indifferent to that which they cut. Be that your steak, or you, their job is to cut.

A properly shaperned knife is a wicked, angry, thing. It must be treated with respect, deffarence, and no small part of care. However, they must not be feared; like a wild predator they can sense fear.

Suffice it to say OP was just using some artistic license to show that they got a new old knife and nicked themselves.

I would like to point out its not even we. Its upper management and ‘the stockholders’. Everyone from the peon to lower management knows that people don’t work continuously for their shift. I doubt anyone can work continuously for that long and not go crazy.

But the reward from mid and management and above for completing your work is more work. Which is great for them since you completing more work means they get bonuses.

Seconding this, and its a great game but only if you do like games where there is a story line, but its up to you to find it.

Don’t comment what a line is doing. Instead, write your code, especially names for variables, constants, classes, functions, methods and so on, so that they produce talking code that needs no comments.

Over and over and over again in my experience this just doesn’t work. Readable code does not substitute for comments about what the code should be doing.

Seconding this, I can’t think of a time that I’ve actually had windows respect my configured update window.

I’d also like to point out how annoying it is that manually hitting the update button doesn’t seem to do anything. If I hit the button I want to dedicate the full system resources to updating right now, not just keep doing what it was doing but add a skinny thing.

Oh good, that’ll be my entire adult life as well as my youth. Yaaaaaaay!

I shuddered you bastard.
