How come they don’t count? They’re figuring out how the machines should work, for money. That’s engineering, right? (I’m an American mechanical engineer)

If it really ramps up, we could share block lists too, like with ad blockers. So if a friend (or nth-degree friend) blocks someone, then you would block them automatically.

2009-2017 boomed a little too

This suggestion makes you a crypto influencer now.

Hey what if instead of free adblock, we charged people for it? Also I’ll use a little bit of the profits to try banning gay marriage.

Sure, you can change literally everything about Firefox if you pay a time cost. The defaults do matter because that’s one more thing to fix when installing it. We could say this about any negative feature.

It’s not just you. My new year’s resolution was to go down from double shots to single shots.

Limited leaning, for the people who won’t stop trying to walk through virtual walls.

All I do in chats now is post a link to the Discord channel where chatting won’t get you kicked.

In hindsight it’s sad how very right he was. Now when I think “I want to send Alice a message”, I just go to the app I know will work, instead of trying to remember if Alice still uses Signal too.

Part of the reason this is a great example is you can easily calculate the maximum stress of an I-beam IFF you know where to find the simple formula. Even a dense FEA mesh will always give an answer like 3x4=11.9974, it’s worse. The education is how you know which formula to use.

Ok here’s a question I should have asked like way sooner.

In Ubuntu (and similar distros), is there a hotkey to immediately kill the process? Like CTRL-C but harsher.

I keep telling the stupid thing to stop wasting time and space apologizing, and it won’t.

I’m more of a mechanical engineer than a coder, and for me it’s been super helpful writing the code. The rest of our repo is clear enough that even I can understand what it actually does by just reading it. What I’m unfamiliar with are the syntax, and which nifty things our libraries can do.

So if you kinda understand programs but barely know the language, then it’s awesome. The actual good programmers at my company prefer a minimal working example to fix over a written feature request. Then they replace my crap with something more elegant.

Hey now, it’s impossible for them to coordinate on employment to prevent recessions!

Because every time they coordinate they form a cartel that causes a recession.

Uh oh, brace yourself for a bunch of whataboutism from blatantly selfish computer nerds. /s

They had a pretty broad definition of “eugenics” anyways. Bashir’s parents did nothing wrong.
