The cephalopodes have a word to say here...

I mean... "No problem" is something very weird for a Teams user to say, but yeah, they were able to market a video calling app.

It’s meant to basically go “yeah, sure I’ll fuck with that” and keep trucking.

Yet, it lives in an insulated environment, with plenty of infrastructure to make sure errors do not propagate, with a standard error handling functionality on the spotlight with specialized syntax, and with plenty of situations where it just drops the ball and throws an error.

Nope, not falling for the gaslight. It's a stupid feature that's there because the language was created during a week and the author was trying to juggle the requirement of a rigid and typed semantics that looked like Java with his desire to make a flexible single-typed language that looks like Lisp.

And nobody fixed it, decades later, because everybody keeps repeating your line that the interpreter must always keep on.

Nah, it's stupid either way.

"5e-7" is not an int to be parsed. Neither is "0.5".

I'm pretty sure Cortana did that. And that LLM shit that took its place now does the same.

Hum... Owls and tigers know how to make a lot of noise too. We don't really know if the tyrannosaur is hunting or just trying to get rid of the people.

Well, putting the lights closer would interfere with the scene...

Also, it's heavily compressed. The file size limitation is probably a larger issue here than the quality of the camera.

People will adjust. What happened on Portugal and Spain was caused by excessive centralization of the power grid, not by digitization. If somehow we can't keep the centralized grid running anymore, we will break it down, and bear the extra costs for that.

Also, the sequence of a catastrophe is almost never a riot. Where do people get the idea of riots? People just go and do the right thing.

Seriously, has none of the politicians ever thought about this?

The technicians did.

Where are the backups?

You mean generators? Lots of people have those.

Are we just going full “YOLO” on the reliance on the power grid?

I would understand this question if you lived in 1925, but by 2025 you should know the answer already. Are you so blind about everything that needs electricity that you think disaster would come from the lack of money?

Yeah... It's extra work not to do this. Why would you make an endpoint and not throw in every property of that entity? Why would you mess with your URIs instead of making a clear division with logical entities?

Yet, somehow, most people do exactly those things.

Not wasps. The majority of wasps you'll see are fertile.

Also, insect hives can house several fertile females. Some exist around a single queen, but they are an exception, not the norm.

You shouldn't align code anyway.

If it's important to have stuff on the same column, make it an indentation level and add a line break where it starts.

There are several reasons why people don't call each other nowadays. This is one.

At first I was surprised that anybody even thinks some people may not understand this is a joke.

But then I remembered some people believe the Earth is flat... So yeah, it's probably important to point it up.

To add. The specific edge case where you want to do the balaclava thing is when you are concatenating internally generated column and table names, operators, and entire conditions with extra parameters that you will add the correct way.

He was the CEO and the entire Board...

And somehow it's Eve that has the most correct model, including the reflective models.

You can, but there isn't much of a difference in performance.

Pretty sure the OP meant hydrogen hydroxide.

Is it since people started measuring this or did somebody make a worse government there 80 years ago?

You know, many of the people that created the portable star were happily working in Germany by the time Hitler decided that Quantum Mechanics was a Jew plot against the country...
