Played it when it came out but gave up shortly after, I found the super short days stressful!

I fucking hate Outlook and if I have to pick between two similar jobs I'd pick the one with gsuite over Microsoft any day.

Melbourne has some of the best Asian supermarkets, you can really get almost anything here.

Rclone is superior IMHO, you have to explicitly name the output folder. Used to think it was a hassle but in hindsight being explicit about the destination reduces mistakes.

I use GNU find every day and still have to google about the details. Only learnt about - delete the other day, good to know the position matters.

Wouldn't syncing automatically every few days give you the same protection though?

Only if you're specifically targeted. I know enough regex to know that nobody is going to bother trying to parse known passwords to identify patterns like that when there's a billion suckers who use 'password123' for their bank accounts.

As long as the pattern is not super predictable, and aren't dictionary words, nobody is brute forcing that.

Did woodworking before I started software engineering, and I feel like the general attitude to craftsmanship applies well to coding.

Are you referring to Velcro cable ties, or are there reusable plastic ones?

You don't have to wait, they're doing it now.

I really like Google sheets, QUERY() is so useful.

If its Boeing I ain't landing doesn't have the same ring.

IMHO, this happens often enough that I'm 99% certain it's caused by pressure changes. Unless you saw the actual door knobs moving...

I got that dawg in me

I don't use chatGPT, but work with colleagues who do. They're productivity visibly drops and half the time I gotta fix their shitty code.

Same. Was slightly disappointed, but I guess it just shows how well the show was produced. It departed significantly from the book (iirc) but made all the right choices in the process.

The ending to Station 11 (the miniseries) was so weepingly, heartwrenchingly beautiful. I could not stop thinking about it for weeks.

An really interesting show, would highly recommend. Actually thought it was much better than the book.

You'd be surprised, if you're anywhere near a road regularly or live in a city you're bound to pick up fine dust on your glasses. It may not make much of a difference in the short term but preventing grit scratches makes your glasses last much longer in my experience.

The problem is you wanna wash off any potential grit with running water before cleaning your glasses, otherwise those wipes will still scratch them. I never use glasses cleaning wipes for that reason.

I picked up this trick from a reddit comments years ago and it's a godsend, perfectly clean smudge-free glasses, and they last longer as you're less likely to scratch them.
