I'll come up with a couple of more, I hope this is the type of stuff you're looking for!

Which do you prefer, verbose or concise code, and why? Comment every line, or let the code speak for itself?
I bought a late model EV, one fob came with it, I got a spare preemptively. Like 600 as I recall! The fob thing is a rip-off, I mean you need to monitor the battery on ANOTHER gizmo? I was on a road trip when a fob started to die, trust me no fun!
Sphere of influence vs sphere of concern.
I bought a spare from the dealership, robbery, that! I tried to roll back to a physical key, but dealership said no can do. I'll try the locksmith/hacker next time!
Saves a lot of time, too. Verbal is also more suited to pursuasion, written is more suited to information gathering.
Or 100%... 😎
I read a study somewhere that rational argumentation is just another form of pursuasion. Throw in some motivated reasoning and willful ignorance, and I'm sold. Rational arguments that cherry pick their evidence (most of them), are an attempt to pursuade, not arrive at any truth.
Knowing (or even suspecting) that you are being observed and classified by a system that can grant or deny access to resources (loans, insurance, etc etc) all force you to modify your behavior to achieve a favorable classification and thus a positive outcome. You discipline yourself.
Or better yet, the beeper is back?
Flip phone has a use case?
Agreed.
Google corrected me, but I basically got the gist. Became a cute military-ism for a while.
I'm thinking specifically about occupying cities in order to reduce crime. Yeah, crime goes down under martial law, but so does, you know, a free society?
As I recall, that's a quote from a soldier who was involved in the "My Lai massacre" in Vietnam, 1968.
"AI powered smart cities" is pretty mark-to-fantasy, too.
Except whatever we're doing, er, ain't helping?
"We needed to destroy the village in order to save it."
You're a bad ass, please continue, for all you're followers!
My favorite is from the final days of the Soviet Union, while Gorbachev's Glasnost and Perestroika programs were under way: An old man is finishing his work at a Moscow office when his wife calls and asks him to get some meat for dinner on his way home. 1/5
I remember that one, I recall the slow mo? Anyway, I'm glad this resonates with someone! Thx for the support!
Agree, one of them was more facial and less verbal. When I was in oz in the early 90s, the whole hostel would pause and watch it weekly. Great cultural experience!
Black adder, if ancient British comedy works. Very verbal, not sure how well it aged...
Maybe creator of the software? Dunno, layers here.
Any idea who the dj is? Is she on bs?
RE while(true) loop, basically. Called "event driven programming". There's a part of the application/os that is repeatedly scaning for changes in the code. Same thing with your mouse pointer tracking across the screen, it's just asking the pointer "where are you?" Like a zillion times/sec.
There's web pages, they are much more pull than push. I've never downloaded the app on my phone, I have a largely dormant account there.
I dropped out in 10th grade, ended up getting a cs degree in my early 30's. It CAN be done!
I go with cheap Logitech, corded, but the quality has declined in recent years...
Drugs
He hasn't been seen since wed, his talk about death, no golf this weekend, etc. I'll try to find the skeet with the breakdown.
Obviously some borrowing/investment there, but will pay for itself quickly.
Can rent a car from Lyft, obviously going to cut into your profit margin. You central in Denver area? If so, ebike or bike will work for doordash.
Lyft or Doordash?
"living on a prayer" comes to mind!
What'd I miss?
Yeah, like being a backpacker in a foreign land? No job, a hostel bed, a spending limit, and no native language abilities, dude that will teach you to appreciate those in a hurry. Just say'n. The US private ownership culture wants to monetize EVERYTHING. Why I hate going back east these days
I'll bite... What ARE third spaces? I think I get it intuitively, but I don't know the def, why they're dying out, etc.
Ive gotten it at Costco before, not sure if/how that would work now.
Dude, that's a cheap chicken!
📌
Also threatens the rest of the crew, and demoralizes them. Putting their lives more at risk.
Dunno, the cuisine could use some work. Except rhubarb pie!
Any thoughts on where to get novavax in Tucson?
Makes me feel like I'm being scolded by a parent.
Always street drugs or pharms to fill the void...
I don't think sarcasm will work with this guy.
I didn't realize you were a "mathematician"! Cool!
It ain't right.
I vaguely remember one wargame, Europa I think, gave bonuses to German pilots for superior optics, and penalized Italian units water resources for having to boil their pasta. Take with a grain of salt!
Helps xwings navigate? Allows a character to have a two sided dialogue with itself to help the plot along? Sell toys?
Wow, that's saying a lot. I'd be nice if it was worth it in the end, I guess that's the story we all get sold, anyway.
Sphere of influence vs sphere of concern! Not always easy to do, but usually worth doing!
Boneless thighs are more expensive, but grill in like half the time, and have a different flavor. Worth a try!
Economical is good in these trying times. Plus grilling is fun!
This is what I got, info 18 months old. Both meds should be started when COVID first detected... Metformin 500mg/day x 14 days as part of the mix. Doxycycline 100mg twice a day, 30 days.
Occupy
Life would be better.
Much-needed information-sharing brings people together!
Yeah, not crazy-toasted rock-hard bread or nothing!
Sandwich guy for pres 28?
Well, the Wawa was for a min!
📌
Plus maybe you haven't seen them yet? Might change your mind.
I don't. Just threw those out there cause I remembered them being surprising and complex. Thought you'd maybe go for one. Not your preference is, well, not your preference.
Whelp, you have strong convictions...
21 grams? La confidential? The usual suspects?
Dude's representing!
Not a bad stab at poetry, in my opinion.
But I mean, who needs subtraction? It's so... Negative.
Yeah, I remember now, looked it up. I did cs school, but forgot about the 2s complimmint shuffle.
Why is subtraction any more difficult than addition?
Get it out of your system now, while you can! I recommend gummies, sleep masks, and ear plugs!
You're embracing your personal introvert whilst you can. I approve! 😎
Always best to spare by standards your masochistic tendencies!
Even a city slicker like me could identify the majestic wild turkey. Intimidating fowl to see in the wild, I'll say!
Unless they were, in fact owls. Yeah, I know, I'm taking a long shot here...
I wish I was one of them cool, hot people.
That ain't right.
📌
Yeah, webpage scripting language plus the much maligned node.js for backend. What could possibly go wrong? It's a lot like bill bellocheck, I don't have to know much about it before I conclude it sounds dreadful.
I learned some java, but I've been told that comparing Java to JavaScript, that's like comparing elephants to elephant seals, completely different animals... Ignorance is bliss sometimes!
I... Must learn more about this JavaScript thing that everyone seems to both use, and loath...
Diablo 4? I'm checking it out now. Thx. Lovcraftian quests tipped the scales!
Well, I'm not sure what "this" is, but hell yeah, be somewhere else. Life's too fucking short for this shit.
If'n you're over 30, just find a good country to hunker down in for a generation. That's all I got!
Right now, that's looking kinda inevitable. When, who knows. All currencies are floating, so what it would mean... who knows?
And you worked for fucking Google(TM)? Sheeet, I'm outta my pay grade! Say's a CS grad, but never "deployed".
Well, you've chosen a good place to land. Not perfect, but good.
That'd be USD.
I crashed out in NorthBridge (Perth) in the early 90's. 7 bucks a night for a room in a hostel, on the weekly rate. Fucking priceless, changed my life.
Yeah, cute little guys, those quokkas!
Oddly, investment vehicles in the US tend to be better than even home countries. You MAY want to look to Interactive Brokers as a ETF/investment broker.
I've got an Oz bank account... details somewhere. Inactive.
Good Job. I'm a fan of Perth, if you haven't been, you should pay it a visit!
I've been following you for a spell, but your life seems... Enematic.
Uh, you living there, or just visit frequently?
Check out ishares, symbol EWA for oz. Ishares have a BUNCH of country-sector specific ETFs. But once again, don't overthink it. Diversification is the ONLY security.
Eur has an added problem that they have no central bank/no sovereign control of spending (depends how you look at it). Australia/aud is a good proxy for... If not emerging markets then export markets. Their Divys are high, as is their interest rates. Much like Canada, sans petroleum reserves.
Yen could come back if USD goes crazy. Whatever the world's capital needs to flock to, the world's capital will stabilize. Yen has been more stable/boring that USD for years. Could be Eur, could be something new. Look to sovereign govt bonds, see how they perform, non USD denominated. Start there!
