At some point Pithos stopped working, or started working poorly, and I switched to Spotify. The integration with multiple audio sinks that let’s you play on any number of networked speakers is a killer feature for me. I loved Pandora but Spotify is a better Pandora (and admittedly more expensive).
I think someone needs to update that old “if programming languages were weapons”. JavaScript is a cursed hammer.
What If “healer” was assigned at random at the start of a match of no one picks it, healers weren’t on either team, land were scored separately by how many people they revived?
Same. When my dad turned retirement age I would make absolutely sure every waiter and cashier knew he was a senior. I’d loudly ask if his senior discount had been applied. Ah, the sweetest of petty revenges.
(Karmic backlash: my kid has always been tall and strong for his age. I lost out on years worth of “kids for free” discounts. The ONE time I tried to eek him under an age limit he quite expertly shut down any shenanigans by stating his birth date, age to the day, and a proclamation that he would be ordering from the non-kid menu anyway, so it didn’t matter. He had just turned 6.)
Oh for sure, and some of those are not ok with swapping the interpreter out 🤣

Their greatest mistake was not naming it Ouroboros.
Just to add some context: the entire space shuttle program, over its entire life from 1972 to 2010, was reportedly 200 Billion.
In 2010, the yearly U.S. military budget was ~650 billion. And they killed the shuttle for being too expensive because that wasn’t spread over enough lunches. (meaning it cost 1.6Billion per launch).
In 2024, even adjusted for inflation, Starliner has already blown past 1.6 Billion per launch (total cost is about 5.8 Billion)
Only Crew Dragon, at 2.4 Billion, has reached parity with what the shuttle cost per launch (inflation adjusted). (Dragon 1, which flew 23 cargo missions, was drastically cheaper).
And both of these are dramatically simpler designs than the space shuttle was.
So it appears that the trajectory is correct, space travel is getting cheaper, but it took a shitload of work to get there, and that’s building on top of what the Shuttle program taught us.

100% his reason is so we remember his name (🤮)
They started at Java’s build system and set a course for Hell.
I’m only commenting because the actual python is practically pseudo code:
# A turtle class
class Turtle:
shell=True
# A boss class
class Boss:
authority=True
#A class that inherits from another
class TigerTurtle(Turtle):
fuzzy=True
# Multiple inheritance, or "The Devil's Playground"
class TigerBossTurtle(TigerTurtle, Boss):
# shell, authority, and fuzzy are all true

“Datacenter Operations”. These are the people that bless the racks, perform the Ritual of the Wires, have access to the Room Of Windy Floors, and get to keep stacks of dead hard drives under their desks as footrests.
You don’t even need a degree, just show up to any data center with a vape and a hoodie and they’ll probably just let you in, especially if it’s third shift. Closest thing you’ll ever have to working in an isekai dungeon.
(I have nothing but respect for the datacenter denizens)
Have you considered multiple inheritance. It’s an upgrade. All upside, literally no downside. I’m trustworthy. Trust me.
Us: Don’t give missiles to Russia.
Iran: Dafuq? Like we’re even frenemies, who the fuck…bitch you’re feeding that shit to Ukraine like it’s Christmas.
US: Fuck yeah I am, we’re building a pipeline, trucks are too slow, the WEAPONS must FLOW.
Now cut that shit out before I ask you twice.
Iraq: 💢
Oh sure, I was mostly being flippant. My response to the article is basically that billionaires losing billions is a good thing. I don’t feel optimistic enough to say we’ll get around to taxing them but yes, that would be ideal.
Venture Capital is probably the best way to drain the billionaires. Those billions in capital weren’t wasted, that money just went to pay people who do actual work for a living. What good is all that money doing just sitting in some hedge fund account?
They should name the dogs “Terror Nexus”
