We do a little trolling, as a treat, on people who rigidly hold to other, unnamed diets that are stricter, and also what they feed their pets. We do not, in accordance with the rules, bring up such arguments here.
Arch? Only if you have time to maintain it and do regular updates! I just use Mint (btw) and have auto-updates turned on. It only bricks the machine once or twice a year, easily resolved with a quick reinstall.
Visit your nearest aquarium! They often have a petting tank where you can touch rays and small sharks. And if not, hey, at least the aquarium is still great!
It can be a delicious addition though: alcohol dissolves flavor and aromatic compounds that water and fat cannot, so you get a lot of unique flavors especially from barrel-aged drinks like whisky and wine.
Sounds like the octopus wrangler knows how to leverage the behaviors of the various animals around it towards it's own ends. Pretty interesting! I'm also curious about their potential follow ups to see if they have memory for and can recognize previous group members.
My mother raises hens and a dozen birds can actually make so many eggs that our entire family has trouble using them all. A bird lays on average one egg a day, and pasture-raised eggs are so rich as to be almost unpalatable to eat directly.
I don't think every farm needs to have some strict limit like that, but more numerous, smaller, more localized farms would be better for everyone in almost every way. Better environmentally, more humane to the birds, people get fresher and higher quality eggs, and more people are employed. Also more limited damage from diseases, droughts, and so on.
Our current system isnt just bad because "factories bad." It's bad because it's heavily centralized and top-down controlled. This is much cheaper to operate and funnels money towards the owner much better, but is so much worse in every way that local farms are better.
We're making millions of birds suffer and getting shittier, more expensive product because of it so less than a dozen people (the real bad eggs) can stay filthy rich.
Wow, hadn't thought about that one in a long time. I thought it was an old Scott Hanselman blog and I was correct! I'll have to reread it, been years now.
I'm not sure there's much why to it exactly. I feel like a small fraction of people I've met in life were truly passionate and excited about the work they did. Most had some passion for an art, or a hobby, or for their kids very commonly, but people who really want to grow and master their craft are somewhat rare generally. Most folks just want to do well enough to keep their jobs and then go home to whatever they actually care about.
Consider that to go on a site specifically for programming questions and then take a survey about it, you have to be the kind of person that cares about getting their code "right". The majority of programmers I've met would only go there to copy-paste a quick answer, and those people have all moved to asking chat-gpt for code now.
Next your going to tell me that all those years of fixing other people's bullshit computers doesn't count as 20 years of tech support at Microsoft! I was raised in those mines, I've put more work into Windows than Bill Gates at this point.

Disgusting! How are you bypassing my block with this animated pornography?
