  • What is the funniest impulse purchase you’ve made/seen someone you know make?

  • 8 inch googly eyes. Put them in the Christmas tree.

    Test tube full of little googly eyes. When I'm feeling depressed I stick them to random stuff around the house.

  • Wikipedia were in read-only mode following mass admin account compromise

    Jump

  • Back when I worked at the foundation there was a special permission that you couldn't have unless you'd broke stuff super badly. To push new code you have to have one of those folks present. They were responsible for making sure there was a back out plan and ran the actual deploy script. Their ssh keys did the deploy.

    I got this bit set after I took out search for Italian Wikipedia. And all none Wikipedias.

  • I never see them because they aren't legally allowed on the road.

    Jump

  • I love it!

  • Every time I see one I think, "that's so ugly it's almost cute." I just love janky crap.

    Jump

  • Shaun's the GOAT.

  • Sea Level

    Jump

  • Do you think "big enough moon" is going to be similarly rare to "liquid water"? We're getting better and better at finding planets. Not sure how we'd find their moons though.

  • What are some of your most useful or favorite terminal commands?

    Jump

  • I used to switch to perl or python if I needed awk. These days I don't tend to run into it as much. Not sure if that was a good choice. But it's how I spent the past 25 years.

  • What is your development environment?

    Jump

  • Arch, i3, IntelliJ, VSCode when I'm not in Java.

  • Whats the worst book anyone has ever recommended you?

    Jump

  • I put it in the "fun concepts boring characters" bucket with most Clarke.

    I really liked the next Hugo winner. And 2020. And 2023. Honestly I think about half of the Hugo winners are amazing. 2007. 2002. 2000. Oh 1993. That's a vintage. 1990. 87, 86, 85, 84 is ok. Oh. They get more consistent as they go back in time. Still pretty good.

  • We're having a kid, any dull advice to make it easier for my wife during pregnancy or for both of us once the beb is here?

    Jump

  • Get a doula. They are like a birth helper. They have so much practice with birth stuff than you do.

    Take off your ring during labor.

  • Americans' thanksgiving pie preferences by state

    Jump

  • Same. I love that there are so many different kinds of pies. But I still want the pican pie from who's recipe is on the karo syrup bottle.

  • Open Source Developers Are Exhausted, Unpaid, and Ready to Walk Away

    Jump

  • I liked the article. It sung to my heart. I've been in this world for a while. Lived through the failure and hyperacalars just taking without giving back.

    I don't know what to think. But I'm not happy with where we are and it's nice to hear someone else talking about it.

  • What is the highest level of mathematics that should be expected to graduate high school?

    Jump

  • I'm on page 3 and already sold.

  • When was the last time you experienced being "skilled" at a game?

    Jump

  • Yesterday when I lost to Chronos on vow of rivals 4. Quite enjoyed losing.

  • Square Enix says it wants generative AI to be doing 70% of its QA and debugging by the end of 2027

    Jump

  • I loved Enix's Ogre Battle and Square's Final Fantasy 6 and 7. How could putting the companies together make a bad?!

  • Remember, today is Nov 5th (V for Vendetta)

    Jump

  • I'm glad we have both the comic and the movie. I'm glad the movie led me to the comic. I love them both.

  • And what car did you learn in?

    Jump

  • I told the car salesdude that I'd buy this car if he spent 15 minutes teaching me. Worked out pretty well!

  • Computer Science Courses that Don't Exist, But Should

    Jump

  • That's not what I was thinking but I like it! Http caching is pretty magic. Stateless nodes and easy scaling too.

    For some kinds of problems you really can't beat varnish and friends. It's how we have Wikipedia, after all.
