They had a similar plan to blow a second Panama Canal through the Darien Gap with nuclear bombs. Just batshit crazy stuff.

Law enforcement activity is so vague it can be wherever the cop says it is.

So it's like waiving contingencies on a house, then trying to back out because it has electrical problems?
904.
by suzzer99 4y ago
So the financiers do back out, then what? Twitter sues them for the full amount, and both parties end up settling for X% of the full amount?
905.
by suzzer99 4y ago
Do they always have the option of settling at any point in the process? Like if Musk said "$20 billion penalty but I don't buy the company", I assume they'd say yes? (Or substitute a bigger number if not.) So are they ju

Now do the Bellagio fountains that evaporate 12 million gallons of ground water every year. I can't imagine that's being replenished at a sustainable rate.

Just out of curiosity - how much to they cost?

What sucks though is when companies say 4 hours but then give extra credit to projects that clearly took more than 4 hours. I did a take home project for Netflix that didn't have a time box IIRC - but something like "no more than

iOS notes has changed my life. It's available on my work Mac, home Mac, and iPhone, and is always synced. It has everything I need and nothing more.

Except the real financial markets have a bottom where contrarian investors will step in and stop the free fall. What tangible value is there for a contrarian investor in crypto?

Hiking - so expensive! GAHHHH

by suzzer99 4y ago
This is so ridiculous. I spend a lot of time hiking the mountains around LA. White people are not a majority and I'm not even sure a plurality. I'm not Latino but still somehow wound up in a mostly Latino hiking club. I hear so ma

I've always wondered about this. Let's say civilization evolved a billion years ago on Mars or Venus to the level we are now. Would we ever be able to detect it? If they put up satellites, could some still be orbiting, or would th

And what's your alternative? Cash under the mattress gets killed by inflation. Gold has its runs but usually underperforms. Bonds also get killed in a downturn.

This was 100% true for that startup I worked for as a side job. They would have been so much better off just building a standard java, PHP or .NET back end and calling it a day. The head engineer (who had known the guy funding the thing sin

Same here! I built a 5x7 animated display from logic gates in an electronics class as part of my degree in physics. That class and fortran were the only two classes I liked in college. I'm glad I got that experience to work with circui

For me, the biggest appeal of programming as a career is getting into flow state - becoming so absorbed in what I'm doing that I lose all track of time. Which sounds like the exact opposite of mindfulness. Mindlessness?

On the flip side - many are speculating a conservative justice (edit: or staffer) leaked it in an attempt to effectively cement the decision in place before it could be watered down.

We use pop3 access to gmail accounts for all our automated sign up tests. Will this break that?

Yeah how about we just get native support for node 16 please.
921.
by suzzer99 5y ago
We are. A big chunk of our app was already written in dotnet from a previous failed attempt, including the C# libraries that talk to our CRM system over SOAP. So it was a no brainer to just port the C# code to lambda. Also node is terrible

Ukraine's president is Jewish. But also somehow a neo-nazi. Got it.

I've lost when I got into a situation with three green letters, no yellow letters, and a ton of valid words remaining with the other 2 slots. Can happen with one open slot too.

Yeah I had the same thing happen. I would jump ahead two hours to play it at night. This morning it kept showing me the same 3-day-old game, no matter what I did. I had to clean out cache, local storage, cookies and everything to finally ge

Funny you should mention that in this thread. You can map caps lock to forward delete. Trust me it will change your life.

I always did the same with the Insert key on windows. Totally useless and misclick hell.

by suzzer99 5y ago
I re-mapped caps lock to forward delete on my Mac. Changed my life.

by suzzer99 5y ago
Exactly. I think 4-5 year old me would have weighed the utility of sitting there having a battle of wills with myself for one extra marshmallow, and quickly decided it wasn't worth it. What if I hold out for 10 minutes only to finally

I've never understood the marshmallow test. I'm supposed to sit there and stare at a delicious marshmallow for some indeterminate amount of time in order to get one extra marshmallow ? Offer me a whole bag and we'll talk. I&
