  • Don't forget to glue it all together at the end. Real chefs use epoxy

  • Hey, aren't you that starfleet officer that started out a goofy ensign?

    If ever there was a starfleet officer who loved Java. It would be Brad. Followed closely by Spock I suspect

  • Test Driven Development. The route to programming nirvana includes a stop at this station

  • If you don't know, ask a stupid question to yourself. Then ask it again in a more intelligent manner to a rubber duck. Then a real person. One of these three will give you an answer

    TDD is the answer to the second part. Seriously, just try it. Don't do it for every task after, but do try it!

    Notes, tickets, knowleadge bases, READMEs, well written code that is easy to understand, tests that are descriptive, ADRs. Nobody can remember it all, the hard part of programming is making it easy for the next change. Remember it's likely to be you, be kind to your future self

    And imposter syndrome never goes away. And this is a good thing - "don't get cocky kid". It does get lesser though, and then you get more responsibilities! But really, if you aren't questioning why and what you are doing, how do you trust your past self? Embrace the imposter, realise we are all imposters to a lot of extents

  • That's certainly reason enough for most people. So long as there is some actual spark then what's not to love? You may well still get grandchildren and he's unlikely to be seen much. The age gap certainly fails the creepiness test, but no crimes are being commited and both are entering into it with good faith. You may well struggle for some time, but for the good of all - button that beak and smile

  • How much money we talking? 65 and spritely could well mean 25 years or more of marriage

  • Installation the trouble. Roofing is expensive. Next time you have to redo the roof: then it's time

  • I honestly can't believe it wasn't curses based already

    I use EndeavourOS btw

  • To be thin clients for cloud gaming. No thanks, back to retrogaming it is then!

    No real death in that list though - the vocals are part of the genre

  • Yous in Scotland is great to wind up Proper English speakers. If they whinge they get a y'all

  • Great to see OpenAPI being even more embraced. It truly is fantastic for multi-team engineering

  • Yet no planet to be found! And they've looked. I propose a micro black hole instead, much harder to spot with similar gravitational influences

  • Magician sounds really close to magi-chien - or magic dog. Commonly used to teach enunciation for 'standard french' (which is total fake like received pronunciation is too)

  • This joke is better in french

  • The Dune universe lacks computers, which is why spice is so valuable - does that count? Still has plenty of machines, but they aren't the story

  • It's Stroll, he thinks instead that everyone should bid on laptimes and overtaking should align to this process
