I see the issue, it just isn’t with me.

This seems utterly detached from reality. From experience the theory behind times tables are taught at length then the tables are memorised for quick recall during utilisation.

This is already my life.

Inconsistency kills me. I’ve a colleague at work who insists on putting every doc through an llm to make it look nice then dumps it on the wiki. Now the wiki is a clusterfuck of assumptions and inconsistent styling.

Our documentation on some tedious process does not need to look like a magazine article nor does it help me find the salient code snippets that will help me understand why this awkward bit of code is the way it is.

Meanwhile he thinks he’s achieved something.

But look at how many lines of code we shipped 🤣

I have visions of a “workaround stack” which is just layers upon layers of catching edge-cases without ever addressing core logic and we end up with some Rube Goldberg-ass codebases.

Yeah but the GDP grows by 80Bn

Fuck off randy

I kinda dig the double balcony tbh.

I’m willing to bet it’s pretty far off the norm, I’m sure there are people who do but even the most cleanliness obsessed person I know isn’t changing them that often.

It does come across a bit “how much could a banana cost” to anyone who’s actually doing washing in a relationship.

Sorry, I meant a link to show local upload requires a jailbreak. I know Amazon -> kindle usb loading got nixed, but I’ve not seen anything that local uploading via calibre or just directly dropping a book onto the kindle via usb requires a jailbreak.

Have you got a link for local uploading requiring a jailbreak?

Guess I’m going to have to upgrade, anyone know if I’m better off with a P5 Pentium or a Cyrex 6x86?

Merge/test/fix on a separate branch and then merge this into main when the freeze lifts?

I know in the UK margins tend to be high on things like glasses and lenses but they lose money on even standard eye tests (it’s worse if they pick something wrong and need to do further investigation)

Seems like a lifetime since he died, I hope his books are still popular in a hundred years. Gnu pterry.

This is a pet peeve of mine irl, people adding “ator” or “isation” or “ise” or similar to words to make new words we already have words for.

“We need to solutionise this problem”

No, fuck off, we already have the word “solve” we don’t need a new word, it doesn’t make you sound smarter, it makes you sound like a fucking moron who doesn’t know the word solve.

Doesn’t he go every day without shutting the fuck up?

You can even plug em into your phone and transfer from there, super handy on the go.

Not to put too fine a point on it, I think you’ll find that cunts are one of the more frequently tapped markets.
