We had similar sayings around the number of crows you'd see together. As I got older, I realized if you spend enough time outside you'll see any combination of crows you might need to fit the rhyme and have a little talk. One for

It's too bad goto has been so demeaned. It's great for "we're done here but I always want to do a few things before we exit". Like logging. That's it actually why I always work to a single return. I like to kno

The cleanest wash I have even gotten in a dishwashing machine is using a small dab of liquid dish soap (like you would use to wash by hand) instead of "real" dishwasher soap. I don't use it regularly because others either thi

I go for a 20ish minute walk every day as soon as I get off the work vpn. It's a game changer for getting out of work mode and into home mode. This isn't a power walk fitness thing where I come up with side hustle ideas. It's

When I took "Software Engineering" in University, the prof was very careful to explain in great detail, and frequently, that the field was not mature enough to really be called engineering. Then he would talk at length about thing

I did exactly this recently at work. I had a feature set I've been wanting to add to the customer service portal but very little time approved so we built a part of it using very little dev time. The feature was very popular and well u

I've only cut down a few trees but I've seen them bounce or fall in odd ways. I was taught to get the hell out of the way of falling trees as a kid because of this. If you cut them for a living there's endless knowledge aroun

A person I work with (very knowledgable about tech and IT) uses a flip phone and cash (as much as possible). If they want to send a gift they buy it locally, pack it up, and ship it. Etc. They don't even bank online. Why? Not sure but

I wish more apps used git as a sync option. GitJournal is a great client for Android phones and then any editor on desktop platform works fine (plain text or markdown notes). I use it with vs code and Dendron.

They seem to have a lot of sellers (relatively speaking) that do "triangle fraud". So they sell the part, order it from another site using stolen card, ship to original customer. They could be doing a lot to combat this but basica

I grew up when metric was replacing "imperial" in Canada. The road signs had mph and kph, thermometers all have C and F, tape measures have both (lumber is still sold as a 2x4, its pre-finished dimension). Socket sets. God. Anyway

I am not able to do that now. I have a family that needs to be there. When I was younger, sure, I'd pull all-nighters. But those days are gone. When I work now,I have to use my time wisely and be laser focused. I also found when I was

I've never noticed our clothes smelling from the dryer. No one dries on the line here because of all the silt in the air. I am reconsidering my position on the headaches based on another comment. I might be in the wrong there.
