It's meant to inspire a brief moment of dread and surprise for those of us who are not quick at math.

Sounds amazing to me

Lol, did you know it's possible to make GUI applications for desktops that don't use a browser as a platform? It's a lost art, but at one time, it was how every application worked. Incredible, really

You can use bash in jupyter, yep, but I'm one of those nerds who dislikes the idea of using a web app for a shell, and it wouldn't have the virtual filesystem implementation I mentioned. (This is an old thought for me I've just been too lazy to get around to)

A jupyter-notebook like approach, in which commands and history are kept in previous boxes and show outputs in limited boxes and we stop limiting ourselves to pretending we're still using teletypes but maintain the power pipes bring to unix. Also, all boxes are given filenames in a virtual fs that makes it easy to reference them or their output and treat them like a file, erasing the need to rerun a command to run something on its output because you forgot to save it.

forced to pay for the cost of their own healthcare if they develop any disease that has even a minimal chance of being related to smoking.

Fun fact: smokers on average die much younger than non-smokers, and so end up being cheaper over a lifetime vs. the amount they pay into the system than non-smokers.

So the next time you see a smoker who's on the same health plan as you, you can thank them, knowing their self-inflicted early demise will likely end up lowering costs on your plan.

Even more fun fact - same with the obese: a heart attack or stroke at 45 is way cheaper than paying for all the end-of-life healthcare healthier people are more likely to get in their 60s-70s when half of them aren't even working anymore, lazy PoSs.

Really makes me reconsider how I think about those selfish in-shape non-smoker bastards who won't just smoke or overeat so they die young and make my healthcare cheaper

There's not a level of automation that exists that could handle the loss of workers.

You appear entirely unaware of test programs like Canadian Mincome showing minimal employment drop, with some spinning up businesses by claiming the income against loans. The people who dropped out entirely were nearly all either continuing education or mothers raising kids.

This is replicated in projects like those in Africa.

Basically, the answer to the knee-jerk "wouldn't everyone just stop working?" question is "actually, no."

A dance-for-charity event at The Pennsylvania State University whose name I personally haven't heard in a minute

Back when I mained Lulu in League oh say roughly a decade ago, they were fun to play because their shield could also be used as an attack that set you up for an easy slow. Paired with the right teammate, that combo did in many an enemy AC. I also enjoyed getting a bunch of items with cooldowns that did things like speed us up for chases or add temporary shields, and an ult that - used right - temporarily interrupted and stunned the enemy in addition to adding some health.

Those kinds of dynamics, where you're buffing your team at the right time to secure kills in addition to healing them, made being designated support my preferred role.

Iiin the pipe, five by five

Not just the area south - basically all the area in between the two cities. And yeah, it's basically like saying "once you're out of the cities, you might as well be in Kentucky."

Damn I'm stealing that

Aggressively seconding this. If you can just do a step in a bash command, do that, don't use the stupid yaml wrapper they provide that actually just turns around and runs the same bash command but with extra abstraction to learn, break, fix, and maintain for stupid, meaningless upgrades. It will save you time because you'll be using better-tested, more widely-used tools and approaches.

I leave a bowl out, and this year I had a trash can out in case anyone needed it. At the end of the night, the only thing in it was an empty hard cider bottle. Had a laugh

There's a name for it the phenomenon: the AI effect.

Okay, I've never even heard of a Dalgona before, and that sounds incredible. Like somewhere basically incredible hot chocolate is the default coffee

Also use it around your co-workers and peers who have children and would recognize it when you want to really get under their skin, it's skibidi sigma on cap

Nah that's rizzler shit on God sigma 10k

This sounds delicious. Where is here so I can be there?

is probably 50% of my work machine bash history. Also fun trick for anyone who doesn't know:

    
git checkout -


  

checks out the last branch and it's great. "Damn, I need to pull main into this branch" becomes

    
git checkout -
git pull
git checkout -
git merge main
