I ordered a paperback a couple years ago. Kundera, not a completely obscure book. The page on Amazon showed a Harper Perennial paperback with the squiggly line drawing cover art like I was expecting. What I received looked like the cover he

I had to fill out a W-9 (I think) when I signed up to drive. Since my account is stuck as a “partner” it wants me to submit information to recover access to it, even though my “rider” access via my phone number works.

Can you please avoid making casual allusions to lynching in regards to being ostracized for failing to implement this document?

This keeps me awake at night. Where I live, Uber is the only ride service, but my account is in a sketchy limbo that is still working for now. Years ago I wanted to drive for one night to try it out, so now my account is stuck as a “partner

KMT simply have a better ground game when it comes to local elections. After 40 years of single-party rule, they are still the Good Ol’ Boys of local politics. People care more about DPP’s policies nationally. The electorate still overwhelm

Exactly. If you’re constantly available you’ll spend all your time on Slack fielding unrefined queries. “Hey did someone on your team touch X recently, because blah blah blah.” Just turn off notifications and ignore it. If it’s important fo

Nah, that’s just how it works. I had my own Nest that no one else messed with and it was still a constant battle. It was always trending towards power savings and making the house uncomfortable. The only useful part of it is that you can r

Not exactly the same. It's been a while, but if I recall, count takes a predicate block so you can do things like `numbers.count { |n| n.even? }`

I'm a recovering rubyist (actually I still love ruby, just never get to write it anymore). The only times I felt `unless` was truly more readable than `if !something` was when it was used in the conditional suffix form like do_so

That's an expensive experiment to try, so I probably won't do it, but what does the green arrow checkmark mean? That my code lints? I use Syntastic most of the time, which just runs a linter like flake8 and then puts a red arrow n

Same here except that each year it seems like I shed a plug-in that I’m not using anymore. Over the last decade I’ve been told over and over whenever I join a new team that Vim isn’t going to cut it and I should switch to the current hotnes

Not sure how they partition it, because you can obviously still see users you follow while you move around, but I noticed my fyp was completely different when I went back home. It could just be that IP geolocation is more important a signal

At the risk of sounding cynical, what we have to show for it is a military with actual fighting experience. It’s a big part of why we and the UK are able to outfit and train soldiers in Ukraine, and why we have nothing to fear from rivals l

I think this phrase showed up around the time police departments started getting military hand-me-downs like MRAPs.

As recently as 2012 I remember my MacBook Pro having rendering glitches where a webpage I had been looking at hours before would be displayed in the frozen window of another app, with scan lines or sometimes inverted.

It sounds more like you’re asking about an emotional block than actual financial health. Give yourself some credit. A multi-year safety net is far more savings than most people have, and you shouldn’t dismiss that just because you haven’t b

Spying between allies is not uncommon and is even tacitly allowed because it increases trust between partners.

It’s not. I’m not saying things are perfect the way they are now and we shouldn’t look for ways to be productive, it’s that I don’t want us to get stuck in a local maximum like our industry tends to do. If Python isn’t expressive enough, le

This is my primary reason, after IP abuse, of disdaining Copilot. We’re still going to need engineers, and I’d rather us make our languages and tooling more expressive than turn into a prompt engineer.

Not it is not. There are cities much bigger than SF where you can even drop your wallet on the metro and still get it back. I live in one.

It's shocking that this is a normal opinion. Taipei is a much bigger city than SF. There are public restrooms everywhere. Every single metro station has clean, indoor restrooms. Not just "available" restrooms, I mean clean, l

A home invasion is a pretty bad analogy for someone that created a competing project in their own time after working for them. There was never any plausible allegation that the intern stole their IP as I remember.
