I see the fee as largely a formality, you pay it then you think "might as well order from them since I paid for the membership". Then you have thier video streaming, subscribe and save, etc. It seems to pay for itself but it reall

It's not unknown to have a driver snap the confirmation and then take the package. Anyone who does this will eventually get fired but it seems to happen. Personally, I've never had an issue with this but there's doorbell came

The hardest part of writing a novel is definitely not converting it to docx. I can't even express how crazy this discussion sounds. It's like people who post on writer's forums about how they have an idea for a novel and ask

I always wonder this as well, and, in my opinion, no there is never more to it than that. Interlinking notes with hyperlinks is a huge convenience that plays a role in all these "new" methods but academics (and others, of course)

You are not wrong, but the argument is a text file could hold the link to the audio file and any metadata. I am a right tool for the job person so I use plain text for personal stuff but when it comes to work, there are so many more require

While I learned a little BASIC as a kid, my first programming language was C, in my 20s. I learned it using the Kernighan & Ritchie book. I can't even remember where I got a C compiler from. Probably a DOS freeware ftp server over

This is how I got hooked. As someone who grew up pre-internet (realistically speaking) my brain learned to live with libraries, paper calendar, tasks lists on pads of paper, etc. Also, not knowing if someone called until I got home (and not

This is how I learned. The most important step here is selection of the right thing to juggle. Nothing adds more difficulty (well, maybe riding a unicycle). The hackysack was made for this. The heft and size are perfect, especially when you

I have never understood "it's an app store" precludes an expander or link to details.

Agreed, but this was normal in professional pastry cookery. I guess I agree with both of you. The purpose of using exact measurements is to ensure exact reproduction of the product. Not using bakers percentages when you can, takes away from

Agreed. A trained or experienced cook would have no issues with these instructions. When you learn cooking as a trade you learn basic techniques so actual recipes are terse and deal in basic components, techniques to combine or prepare them

While I doubt they did this for more than a few days at a time, I can totally see them doing this to help get through winters. I've had a couple of periods where I was flat broke and had food staples and a roof over my head but not muc

Aside - I'm not an expert but systems like MailChimp will get very worked up if your list has lots of undeliverable addresses on it. This can trigger an audit of your list which prevents sending, etc. These audits seem to take quite a

A friend of mine kept them as pets. I was there once and watched one eat a piece of spaghetti. It held the noodle with both paws, sitting on its hind legs, and took bites while feeding it into its mouth "hand over hand". I have ne

I have taken various runs at stored procedure versioning and agree with you. The database is the ultimate sacred resource. Change things at your peril and test like crazy.

I agree. There are many people, like me, that barely have a sense of smell to begin with. I would never buy a scented candle for myself. But if I didn't really know that Scott myself, maybe I would suddenly decide to get one based on a

I have gone completely over to this from emacs recently. I can fully commit knowing if things don't go well it's back to emacs with no issues.

I'm about to do some interviewing and I am much more interested in how they would handle a credit card provider being down when processing a transaction. Or if they can articulate that solution verbally. Or if they handle me taking an

I have no doubt this is true and has been for me at every place I worked since I got into this field in the 90s. Except when I did an on-site contract for a government department. They would not allow this. I had to make a spreadsheet to sh

Sometimes I wonder if people have been hurt so bad emotionally that they feel they need to project a lack of empathy as a way of showing others they are strong. That they are not a target. It's subconscious, probably. Thank you for pat

I created a new repo to try this out the other night and haven't opened emacs since (I work in a windows environment so I just use week emacs for personal org mode based stuff now, plus any mundane editing on my Linux workstation). I l

Thanks, I will review that. We are working on ASP.NET stuff and using Web.configs in a non-standard way (don't get me started) to store encrypted strings for... anyway, you get the idea. This is in the queue to get overhauled soon, so

I use them to stash changes to config files that remain fairly stable across branches but require local paths, etc. I realize this isn't a best practice for config files but it is what I need to do for my particular mountain of technic

You can have you gmail forward to your fastmail account. This way you leave it up but migrate over as you can (you won't miss updates, password reset emails, etc).

Your pants do not protect your from someone else urinating on you but they definitely make it harder for you to do it to someone else, especially by accident. Sorry to be crude.
